Ok, sure. But we should also consider the possibility that in this particular video all context is already displayed: pro-Palestine demonstration. This is the sad reality of the current political trend.

the europeans seem to be going harder on fascism than the americans atm.

I dont know that I agree but I also dont want to participate in this competition in the first place. Maybe instead of measuring fascism vs fascism we agree that literally any fascism is too fucking much and fight every ounce of it collectively everywhere?

the fascism has been around for centuries by this point, but it was tolerated because it wasn't targeted at the privileged groups until now.

i suspect that once the privileged groups are out of the fascist crosshairs; fascism will go back to being tolerated again.

I would argue ICE abuses are a lot worse than German police

I disagree with what you are implying in the second sentence, but agree with the third. I don't believe that in general (so individuals might) the police acts more forceful against pro-Palestine demonstrators. However, I do agree that politically Germany is doing fuck all for Palestine.

Yeah, I meant the latter: politically. Take my upvote :)
