Spare me the “American-style simpleton-politics for people who have no clue how real Democracy looks like” bullshit - the last guy which was of the “other side” in your hyper-reductive 2D fake-democracy theater system was sending 2000 lb bombs (which the American Military itself won’t use because of their high collateral damage) to Israel to blow up high density neighborhoods of residential apartment buildings with.

There were no big demonstrations against it.

Same thing back when Obama was blowing up weddings and killed so many innocents that he changed the definition of “enemy” to be any male between the ages of 14 and 60 so that the numbers didn’t look so bad.

There were no big demonstrations against it either. Hell, plenty of American mindless tribalist followers of that “side” of America’s Theatrical “Democracy” still laud Obama as a great man and a great president.

The reason why there are big demonstrations against the current one is that he’s doing in America the shit that the others mainly did or supported abroad, so now people who weren’t suffering when Biden’s 2000lb bombs were hitting Hospitals in Gaza and Obama’s drones were blowing up families attending weddings, are suffering, so its only now that they demonstrate,

Little brown kids being mass murdered was fine for most Americans as long as they themselves were ok.

America is a country were “I’m alright Jack” is the most important “Moral” “compass” for most people, possibly one of the worst in that regard.

Prudism by itself whilst bad isn’t all that bad.

No, the Evil part is the Love For Ending The Life Of Other People.

Prudism alongside this is just hypocrisy - after all, unless one is reading a very, very special Bible, Christ said “Turn the other cheek”, not “Hang them by their neck until they’re dead”.

Don’t let the door hit you on your way out!

How is “The American Military will leave your country” a threat?

It makes sense that in the country were Death Penalty is considered less morally wrong than Viewing Pornography or Homosexuality, most people support (or at least don’t care about) Israel mass murdering children for the “crime” of being born Palestinian.

That moral priority alone says that for most Americans, life is less sacred than what people do with their sexy bits alone or with consenting adults.

No wonder America keeps making war and killing millions.

Ever since a nephew of Freud introduced concepts of Psychology into the Marketing world back in the mid XX century that advertising has shift mainly to work via psychological effects.

Perfect examples are perfume TV adverts (all about associating a perfume with sex and feeling sexy) and Car TV adverts (generally about associating a car with freedom, success and sometimes power).

So yeah, most of that shit is meant to just reside in your subconscious and subtly prod you towards a certain product or service at the right time, even if only because a certain brand name feels “familiar” or even “trustworthy” when you have to make a choice about a kind of product or service you don’t usually buy.

People have rights.

Social constructs have no rights.

What you’re missing in your interpretation of your own example is the consideration that the right to exist, to be free and to chose how they rule of the people currently in the territory of Canada is what would be under threat by Trump, not some imaginary “right” of Canada. Canada should not exist due to any inherent “right” of nation states, it should exist if and only it helps uphold the rights of people.

The social construct called Israel in overall does not uphold the rights of people: sure it does support some rights for some specific people, but it suppresses rights for far more people than it supports, especially the most important one of all - the right to life. The social construct called Israel as it is now should not exist because it oppresses more people than it supports and it’s the people who have rights.

The pretty much got the biggest idiot possible and gave it the keys of whole damned castle of cards.

I XOR all the bytes of my data and write down the resulting byte value on a post-it as our backup.

Saves tons of space, it’s fully offline and I never had any problem with it.

Thus completelly eliminating all bugs and data incorrections in Production!

That right there is the sweet smell of Victory!

Plot twist: They’re gonna double down on vibe coding it.

Good.

That said my point still stands that the “support” for the Jewish People in Germany was never a visible element of a move away from the way of thinking which was the foundation of NAZIsm, it was only a façade whilst the Racism remained unabatted and the authoritarian tendencies were only mildly suppressed, as demonstrated by the totally different treatment extended to other victims of the Holocaust such as the Roma People, by the continuation of Race-centric treatment of people when supposedly moving away from the NAZI years into the “making of amends” to the victims (rather than a race-agnostic victim-centric view) and by the repeated use of Force in Germany to suppress political dissent such as llustrated by this law (and the countless videos of the politzei’s treatment of anti-Genocide demonstrators).

At least at the level of the political elites Germany is not a modern liberal nation, it’s a Racist nation with a very limited and mainly performative bit of “liberalism” (in such a fertile field of Race-centric and Authoritarian thinking, no wonder the growth of the AfD)

Germany (and the rest of the West, but Germany is significantly worse than most, IMHO) needs to move away from from the Normalized Racism of using people’s ethnicity as a determinant of their worth and deserved treatment and towards Humanist views, as well as away from creeping Authoritarianism like this.

It was and is so easy for the Zionists in Israel to manipulate Germany exactly because the latter country doesn’t really follow Humanist values (it just puts on a show of being a “modern” “liberal” country) hence the reaction to the Zionist Genocide was not the Humanist reaction (your actions define your worth and thus our support, and those who mass murder civilians don’t get our support), it was the extreme Racist reaction (the Kanzelier proclaiming “we unwaveringly support the Jewish Nation” at a point when the list of murdered babies 1 year old or younger in Gaza was already 17 pages long) and the Racism and Authoritarianism have carried on since, hence the continued forcefull suppression of anti-Genocide views, including this law.

And this shit wasn’t just the CDU and SDP, even the Greens had a Race-centric take rather than a Humanist one, holding a position which can only be derived from the belief that Race is more important than even Human Life.

All this to say that the change that has to happen for Germany to enter the XXI century is a lot deeper and fundamental than the miniscule step of stopping the “unwavering support for Jewish Nation”.

Same reason why somebody won’t tell somebody else “you should use that specific bathroom stall” but they will “don’t use that specific bathroom stall”.

A plane can still fall on your head.

Even further: the biggest problem with AI and thus the biggest decider on its suitability or not for something is that its distribution of failure in terms of consequence is uniform rather than it being more likely to err in ways with few or less grevious consequences than in ways with more or worse consequences.

In other words, unlike humans who activelly try and avoid making the nastiest and deadly mistakes, when AI fails, it can fail just as easilly in the most horrible and deadly ways as it can in the most minor of ways.

That’s why you have lots of instances of LLMs giving what for humans are obviously dangerous advice like telling people to put glue on pizza to make it look good or those with suicidal thoughts to kill themselves - unlike humans AI has no mechanism to detect “obviously dangerous” on an output it’s about to produce and generate a different output instead.

This is why using AI to generate fluff filling for e-mails is fine but it’s not fine in systems were errors can easilly cost lives.

So even flying over America without landing there is going to become dangerous.

Best choose flights with Polar routes, going the other way around or which fly over South America instead.

ONE MILLION Roma were murdered by the NAZIs during the Holocaust, alongside 3 million Jews.

Notice how German politicians don’t “unwaveringly support” the Roma. In fact, they don’t even talk about them.

The “change” in Germany after NAZIsm wasn’t the end of the idea that ethnicity defines how somebody should be treated or that some ethnicities are “good” and others are “bad”, it was merelly moving the Jewish People from the “bad” ethnicity to the “good” ethnicity column.

A consistent and non-racist “correction” for Germany’s past would see all of the actual victims of NAZIsm and their descendants being compensated for it, be they Roma, Jews, Handicaped, Homosexuals, Communists or from any other group, and ONLY the victims, not this Racist bullshit of claiming that all individuals of an entire and very specific ethnicity are all deserving of support even though the vast majority of them are in no way form or shape related to the victims of the NAZIs except for being born in the same ethnicity, whilst not doing it for those from other equally targetted groups (something I emphasize because it really shows how even the supposed “making of amends” is done in a Racist way).

This shit we see in Germany is not a genuine change from the way of thinking of the past, it’s just in the face of defeat doing the minimum required adjustment to the defeated political ideology to please the victors, which was moving a specific ethnicity which is influential in the main winner country of the war from untermenschen to ubermenschen, without doing it for any other targetted ethnicity, much less actually reforming the way of thinking about and acting towards people as “ethnics” that underpinned NAZIsm or even, as we see in this law, refuse to use force to silence dissenting opinions.

The “change” in Germany is mainly changing the façade, not at all the foundations - i.e. image management, not reform - hence how right now the open racism of “unwaveringly supporting” a genocidal nation with no other reason than the dominant ethnicity there and the choice of using force against those who disagree such as this law are right alongside:

Everything related to the two world wars and the role they played in it is subject to censorship and oversight, to a degree that’s almost comical if it weren’t real.

People who are now Israelis have a right to exist, just like everybody else.

The nation of Israel has no right to exist, same as all other nations.

Funny how racialized politics, autoritarianist tendencies and even a certain view of nation states as more important than people, did not stop when NAZI Germany was defeated and are still very much alive and acted on in Germany - the symbols such as swasticas and goose-stepping aren’t displayed anymore but the fundational aspects of the NAZI view of the world, of the value of people and of the validity of the use of force to suppress ideas the powerful dislike, are still alive and well in Germany.

By doubling down on ICE and ultra expensive penis replacement “trucks” the Auto Industry and it’s paid up politicians there are basically committing suicide, so sooner or later there will be plenty of room in that market for auto makers with friendly priced electric cars.

In Spain these guys will actually kill the bull in the Arena (hence the name “matador” - literally “killer”), so this is only fair.

PS: Mind you, not that “just” the part of torturing of the bull (the only part done in Portugal) is much better.
