"Unauthorized demonstration". Ah, democracy.
when government banned them for a good reasons (in this case probably violence and antisemitism) they are unauthorized.
They did the same for the anti vaccer dipshits of the "querdenker" movement during the corona pandemic.
Yeah, love all the armchair political commentators on lemmy. I live in Berlin, what's happening in the Neukölln district of Berlin has nothing to do with peaceful protests. It's a whole bunch of "kill all Jews" mixed with a hefty dose of "burn it all!", and somehow it's always a giant mob of violent men in their twenties, who aren't exactly paragon of empathy and diversity, imagine that.
Just wanted to say, having an actual informed perspective here is really appreciated.
Well, yeah, advocacy for genocide isn't exactly something a functional democracy should tolerate.
Voicing your preference to have a state of Palestine that is not occupied by a different country is not quite the same thing as advocacy for genocide. Germans fought long and hard for their right to demonstrate.
Sure. But they're not protesting for a two-state solution, they're cheering on Hamas.
„Bei gravierenden Ereignissen, welche die Öffentliche Sicherheit oder Gesundheit gefährden, können Regierungen Notstandsgesetze anwenden, welche neben der Versammlungsfreiheit auch das Demonstrationsrecht einschränken. Die Einschränkungen der Versammlungsfreiheit und des Demonstrationsrechts während der Corona-Krise sind jedoch Einschränkungen einzelner Grundrechte und nicht mit den Notstandsgesetzen zu verwechseln, die weiter gefasst sind. Diese Gesetze wurden am 28. Juni 1968 verabschiedet, Anwendung fanden sie bislang noch nie.[2][3]“
Einschränkungen einzelner Grundrechte
Ich glaube, irgendwer versteht das Wort "Grundrechte" nicht, und ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher, wer es ist, tippe aber auf die Regierung.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Authorities had banned such protests, which have been called in response to the conflict between Israel and Hamas, the militant group which killed around 1,400 Israelis in a terrorist attack two weeks ago.
Some attendees used pyrotechnics, set fire to barricades and pelted police with stones and bottles, law enforcement said.
Berlin police chief Barbara Slowik told regional broadcaster RBB that the situation in Neukölln was "tense."
The incident comes after after two Molotov cocktails were thrown at a Jewish community center in Berlin in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
Separately on Wednesday night, another gathering against violence in the Middle East was held outside the Foreign Office in Berlin.
Pro-Palestinian protests were also held in other German cities influding Frankfurt, where police used water cannons, and in Nuremberg.
The original article contains 269 words, the summary contains 129 words. Saved 52%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
reminds me of: "Fiery, but mostly peaceful protests"
except, they were celebrated and encouraged by every mainstream entity.
as long as the protests don't engage in violence, I see no problem
I can't believe how many hate freedom, it's disappointing
Not exactly sure how you meant that. To be safe, let's remind ourselves of the paradox of tolerance.
To remain a free society, we have to protect the freedom to exist for all participants, which excludes the freedom to stir up hate and cause violence, or to throw molotov cocktails against synagogues. Your freedom ends where my freedom begins.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
