In the German state of Bavaria, dozens of people are in 'preventive detention' because they might otherwise engage in climate protests, specifically around the car industry exposition IAA in Munich. Apparently possible for a month there... https://www.zeit.de/gesellschaft/zeitgeschehen/2023-09/letzte-generation-bayern-praeventivhaft-gewahrsam

    When did Anti-environmentalist tomfoolery become pro-Nazi?

      It’s not the cause, it’s the tactics. Throwing people in jail before they actually do anything is a classic hallmark of tyranny.

        The tactics are tyrannical but not uniquely fascist. Jailing political opponents because they angered the crown is a European tradition that predates Rome.

          Fair. I guess fascist is just what humanity has come to call such things.

            Fascist is also what humanity uses to refer to actual fascism, which is having a pretty unfortunate resurgence at the moment. Its not just referring to tyranny.

            I heard someone call the removal of the green M&M fascism once. Just because people label it as such doesn’t make it accurate.

      “Become”? No. It just has been for lone one of their indicative “modern” traits.

        Yeah that’s incorrect.

        Their motivations were still racist and bad, but the Nazis in Germany were not anti-environment.

        Unless you mean modern Nazis, at which point ok maybe I haven’t really researched modern Nazis. I know the people they support certainly are, whether they admit they’re Nazis or not.

            On a thread about Nazi Germany, forgive me for staying on topic.

              My bad, I didn’t notice that.

              I do think though that the parent comment was mainly referring to detaining people without due process when talking about Nazi Germany, rather than the environmental perspective.
