Reddit already bans accounts for upvoting "wrong" posts

Explain which law are you referring to here?

A politicians who told Germans to leave their country was killed. That was taken as a welcome opportunity to turn things to 11. There is now another new law "zur Bekämpfung des Rechtsextremismus und der Hasskriminalität".

A politician who told Nazis to leave the country was murdered by a Nazi. Suddenly this sounds a lot different.

No he didn't tell that to Nazis. He told that to citizens of his own town who feared for their safety.

Why does that even matter? Are you implying that murdering him was in any way justified?

Wait, you were the one bringing that up. And no, no one would say that because that's also illegal now in Germany (you see a pattern).

Please explain what law you are referring to - I have not heard anything of the sort.

They're probably referring to this: https://www.tagesschau.de/inland/internet-hass-hetze-101.htm...
