it tells that our opinion, our article 5 of our constitution, that people can say a lot of things even though they are completely wrong, that they uphold in court. and that s what happened here. nobody can defend himself or herself against something like that. and by the way, i already. that, too, i told five years ago. mr hocke is a regional leader. he s not the main figure in germany, but, yes, he is an important figure, but he s not as bad as left extremist media permanently. so. so hang on a minute. ..defames him. i just want to get this straight in my head, then. you re telling me that a court declared that this man could legally be described as a fascist. he is the leader of a significant afd branch. and so could you. and i could call you a fascist, too. no, but ijust want to know whether you re comfortable serving alongside fascists? well, i m not uncomfortable because it comes from a left
extremist media in a way that sort of validates and encourages people who think this way? yeah, i mean, i will say that the forms that were there before january 6th that were posting all of this stuff, they re still around. they re still posting crazy stuff. there was, i would say, a five or six month cooling off period where people didn t know if they were being watched by the fed, didn t know how explicitly, they realized donald trump isn t going to be the president anytime soon, and all of the audits aren t cut and dried, in fact, it s probably a sham, they re starting to realize that people have to, i guess, take up arms. that s what they keep saying in the space. when are you going to do something. that s what everyone keeps saying in these spaces. the difference is there s no date. january 6th, there was this two-week leading up. it was like wrestle mania for these people, they were waiting to go. now everyone is like, where do
