Hope the murder charge sticks when they find his dumb ass. I don’t care if the kids were speaking demonic; you want to send something off the bridge? Do the the world a favor and send yourself

[–] [email protected] 120 points 1 year ago

German here: if they find him, it probably will. Our justice system is not perfect, but we can usually be proud of the results.

[–] [email protected] 77 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Seriously. If you’re so insecure that you argue with children you’re already a child yourself. If you feel the need for violence toward a child, I don’t think I want you sharing this planet.

[–] BackOnMyBS 20 points 1 year ago (4 children)

My anger says that if they want to be violent towards children, then we can throw them in with a polar bear to see what they think about stronger and larger predators attacking smaller more vulnerable people.

*attempted murder

Just want to make sure that people reading the headline, but not the article, the kid survived the attack and is in a hospital.

*attempted murder

[–] Diprount_Tomato 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nah they definitely will considering this is a clear case of hate crime that ended in murder + it's the Russia-Ukraine situation

[–] Heastes 57 points 1 year ago (2 children)

this is a clear case of hate crime that ended in murder

The kid fortunately survived.

[–] Diprount_Tomato 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Glad that the kid survived, but it's still a hate crime

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago (3 children)

There is no "hate crime" in German law though. He'll be charged with attempted murder.

Hexbear and Lemmygrad cheering

[–] [email protected] 147 points 1 year ago (3 children)

And yet they constantly whine about being defederated and demand to know what they've done, because clearly they've never done anything wrong ever.

The answer to the question is simple, honestly. It's because they're shitty people.

[–] [email protected] 105 points 1 year ago (7 children)

They're intentionally shitty people. None of them have real political views because they are all still in middle or high school and don't have to pay bills and don't have real jobs. They're entire purpose is to troll. They just get on here and look at what anyone is talking about and take the opposing stance to be pricks. Those people would defend any given serial killer or fascist war monger if it meant someone got upset.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No no, it's not "trolling," they call it alternative debating!

A sad bunch, the lot of them.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

Sounds like they're your run of the mill contrarian cunts

[–] TwoGems 29 points 1 year ago (6 children)

They're probably just Russia disinformation bot farms for all we know. If they are real people, that's extremely disappointing to me.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

Be disappointed, because many of them are real people.

I just can’t wait for the damn emoji bug to get fixed. So tired of the same crappy images being posted by them on every comment thread filling up the screen and making browsing the already crappy tankie thread even worse. So glad LW defederated from them.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago (3 children)

But then how will you appreciate the 1000 different variants on a clown face labelled "Liberals" ?? 😱

Children being thrown off bridges? No, no. He clearly fell. This story is clearly just capitalist propaganda. Great communist countries like China and Russia don't have murder. Everything atrocious is merely done for self-defence.

^/s^

This is just vile. I don't even know what to say. An Adult attacking Children. He should get his fascist Ass to the Frontline and get brutally murdered. I hope that the Police finds this disgusting POS and locks him up. And I'm terrified that this is happening here in Germany.

Fight on, Ukraine! You have my support till you get the last cm² of you Country back.

Makes me wonder where this guy came from. Is he just some German neo-nazi type or is he a Russian that is a hard core Putin supporter? If the latter, why is he allowed in Germany? Though I suppose the question holds if he's the former too.

[–] [email protected] 119 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Foreigners living comfortably in the free west while supporting authoritarian assholes in their countries of origin make my blood boil. The fucking Russian bootlickers are just one side of the coin, the Turks who vote at the fucking airport for erdogan and then come back to live in a nice liberal society are just as bad. That’s an utter farce of an election.

That bullshit makes me resent double citizenships, its neither democratic nor fair, to either society. Make your bed and sleep in it.

[–] electrogamerman 39 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am a foreigner living in Germany and it makes my blood boil too. I feel really sorry for germans that they have to deal with these assholes and if they say something about it, they are called, racists, facists or na*is. I honestly wouldnt be mad if Germany gave more strict laws against foreigners, even if that means I have to leave the country.

In my office there is a russian asshole that is the most racist, misognystic, homophobic asshole that I have ever met in my life. He is pro russia and does everything he can to support Russia and damage Germany. Like he will leave lights on or equipment on during the whole night, just to consume electricity and gas.

Turkish people telling Turks how Turkey is such a good country and that we should be grateful.... while living in Berlin 😐

[–] suction 50 points 1 year ago (12 children)

Probably a Russian. Too many are living in Germany while worshipping Russian nationalism.

German neo Nazis wouldn't bother learning Russian. They'd think the kids were speaking Russian in the first place.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Exactly what I was going to say. If it's anything like in Poland, a typical neo-natzi is either:

  1. a politician doing it to find their niche
  2. a paid actor that somehow despite promoting nationalism says that we should stop supporting Ukraine, it's full of bad Nazis, and shouldn't be a country
  3. a complete moron that follows one of the above and can speak three quarters of a language.

1 Doesn't give a fuck. 2 Does it mainly for money. 3 Can't distinguish anything.

Though again, someone could have told the number 3. what to do.

[–] PrinzMegahertz 16 points 1 year ago

Neo-nazis are Putin supporters, strangely enough. Which makes them traitors in addition to everything else they already are.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago

I imagine Russian-speaking Ukrainians will have even more and more motivation to switch to Ukrainian language as shit like that happens. Even if only for the sake of pissing Russians off and cutting out cultural connections with them
