Nobody was arrested for supporting Palestine. Not a single person. Some specific people within the protests were temporary arrested for calling to murder Jews.

Bullshit.

The German state’s show of support has led to an outright banning of most pro-Palestine protests.

Some of the images circulating from the Neukölln protests have been disturbing: minors arrested for wearing the colors of the Palestinian flag, a woman of Jewish-Israeli descent detained for carrying an anti-war message in Herrmannplatz, a central square in Neukölln.

Ok, next:

Immigration policy was not changed to align with European fascists.

Yes it was. The Greens supported a so-called compromise with the Italian fascist government.

In addition, the vague activation of emergency measures due to the so-called “weaponised” migration, which will be defined as such by national governments, raises eyebrows and may be exploited politically, MEPs warn.

The new deal, which was sealed after years of negotiations, was hailed by southern EU member states’ governments.

In Rome, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said, “Italy does not feel alone” anymore

The Greens, as part of the German government, support this deal that Meloni is praising.

Der Parteivorstand plädiert für einen schärferen Kurs, wie in der Ampelkoalition vereinbart. Asylverfahren an den EU-Außengrenzen, Rückführungen, Kürzung von Sozialleistungen für Geflüchtete.

Translation: The [Green party] leadership advocates for a harsher course, as was agreed by the traffic-light coalition. Asylum process at the EU borders [i.e. camps], deportations, cutting social services for refugees.

These used to be far-right demands only a couple of years ago

Ukraine is not run by Neo-Nazis.

That's not what I said. I said the German government sent weapons to Ukrainian Neo-Nazis. The German government sends weapons to Ukraine, and they give some of them to far-right units like the Azov battalion (now reformed into to 3rd Assault Brigade), and they know that this is happening.

You are calling me delusional for things that have been widely reported, while you deny those things. Who's delusional here?
