HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Thats actually an issue here.
for a time i thought it was goebbels in the thumbnail
would be cool if it was
imagine goebbels doing the modern day fake news alt-right and getting fined
Europe is such a fucking embarrassment
They just keep digging themselves deeper.
I would get the fuck out Germany as quickly as possible if I were a German. Serious big brother shit here.
>>72342921
I can see at least 100 ways in which this shit is going to be used in an authoriarian way.
Fuck these people, holy shit.
>>72342921
i think fake news is cancerous and definitely afflicts America and Europe but I don't think it should be a criminal offense, especially if its on normiebook
>>72342921
>HITLER DID NOTHING WRONG DUDE HELICOPTERS LMAO DUDE PURGING LIBERALS/LEFTISTS/EVERYONE WHO DISAGREES WITH ME LMAO
>w-what are you doing stop that's censorship free speech :((((
>>72343504
it literally is censorship, you stupid cuck
>>72343504
Fucking kill yourself
>>72343559
no censorship implies all information
this is just categorization
if they ban parody or some such then it's censorship
>>72342921
It's about fining Facebook and not Germans, though.
>>72343504
Maybe there is no overlap between the people who want lefties thrown out of a helicopter and the people who oppose fining the opposition.
>>72342921
>amerisharts are butthurt because their """news""" website run by macedonian teenagers are going to be fined
>>72343504
Soon
>>72343864
could be that. I've seen kind of a split in the aut-right between larping fashies and "classic liberals"
>>72343559
>>72343606
>>72343935
Not an argument.
>>72343773
You're right, Germany doesn't have the codebase to be relevant on the internet to a significant degree.
Can't penalize German tech companies if there are none.
>>72343653
>parody
you mean lefty """news"""
>>72344543
Yep, right. Not even mad because I'm working for Red Hat GmbH, a 100 % subsidary of Red Hat, Inc., and I'm completely fine with this. I get to work for a US company (so it actually has money and is relevant) while getting to stay in a civilized country. Best of both worlds.
>BUT MUH FREEZ PEACHES!!
Get fucked rightards
>>72345043
ugh

KEK
Why do Germans hate freedom so much?
I don't want such a country leading the EU to be honest.
>>72346706
>mfw germany imposes media control on all european countries
>"don't worry, the EU will vote on what is prohibited"
>Germany pays up her voting block to get everything Merkel doesn't like banned
>>72342921
You clearly did not understand the article. It's more like:
>be Germany
>fine social media companies for 50 million
>companies overwhelmingly based on the US
>>72342921
only sharia allowed news are legal now
>>72343075
Maas is his reincarnation

Goebels is dead.
