Germany is the second largest contributor of military aid to Ukraine. There are other “wamongering tribes” that seem to send much less.

As long as it is not dryied yet
The law doesn’t make a distinction between dried or not dried. This is only used for measurement. It only distinguishes between alive and dead.
Just cook it out for example.
It’s still a dead cannabis plant.
This law makes no sense in this regard. Allowing three plants just so you have to destroy two an a half of them.
And at one point in time you will be in possession of an illegal amount of cannabis. Even if it is for a short period of time. Sure, you probably won’t be caught but it still seems to be illegal according to CanG
You are allowed to posses 3 plants + 50g consume ready product.
Sure. As long as the 3 plants are alive:
§ 3, Abs 2 CanG reads:
Personen, die das 18. Lebensjahr vollendet haben, ist abweichend von Absatz 1 im Geltungsbereich dieses Gesetzes an ihrem Wohnsitz oder an ihrem gewöhnlichen Aufenthalt der Besitz von Cannabis wie folgt erlaubt:
(1) von bis zu 50 Gramm Cannabis, bei Blüten, blütennahen Blättern oder sonstigem Pflanzenmaterial der Cannabispflanze bezogen auf das Gewicht nach dem Trocknen, und
(2) von bis zu drei lebenden Cannabispflanzen
https://dserver.bundestag.de/btd/20/104/2010426.pdf
Translated by Google:
By way of derogation from paragraph 1, persons who have reached the age of 18 shall be permitted to possess cannabis at their domicile or habitual residence within the scope of this Act as follows:
(1) up to 50 grams of cannabis, in the case of flowers, near-flower leaves or other plant material of the cannabis plant in relation to the weight after drying, and
(2) of up to three live cannabis plants
That is 3 plants that are alive(!). If I’m harvesting or the plant dies of other causes, the plant is no longer alive and I’m suddenly in the possession of much more than the 50 grams allowed by law (and the whole plant counts, not just the buds).
I had a very quick look at the law. It’s a first step. Better than nothing and long overdue. I’m thankful but the law itself seems to be in part contradictory.
I.e.: I’m allowed to grow three cannabis plants. Sounds good? I’m additionally not allowed to own more than 50 grams of cannabis plant material (buds, leafs and stem). How should i even grow a single cannabis plant without making myself culpable?
I guess we’ll have to wait and see how these contradictions are handled by the courts.
It has nothing to do with Trump. Even theoretically that can’t be the case European budgets haven’t suddenly changed in the last couple of days.
for example that Telegram was able to defeat the Russian government by simply changing the IP address
Nowhere in the article is “defeat” mentioned. The article reads:
But all the while, Telegram’s lawyers tried to fight the original give-up-your-keys order in the courts. It had no luck in Russia itself, which is how the case ended up at the European Court of Human Rights.
Edit:
This is my last comment. You succeeded in derailing the thread. Congratulations.
These claims mislead users by making Telegram look like a champion of user privacy at its best
So what? This is not the topic of this thread. This thread is about a ECHR ruling / privacy and I would like to keep the discussion on topic. I do not care how evil Telegram is.
Do you want me to give you links to Russian laws that
This article is not about the Russian law. It is about a judgement by the ECHR (33696/19). You are telling us, that the article is “fake-news” and I asked you to proof your claim. I did my part and delivered the judgement itself. Now it’s your time to proof, that this judgement never happened.
Edit:
BTW. this article and the judgement is not about Telegram vs. Russian Federation. It is about Anton Valeryevich Podchasov vs. the Russian Federation with Mr. Podchasov being a Telegram user. That is my current understanding.
This is not true,
If this isn’t true, than why is there a judgment from the ECHR on this case? Do you have any proof for your claim?
Good time to become vegan. They can’t be against that!
Of course they can. The following is a AfD request (source: German parliament, auto-translated by DeepL)
AfD demands warning against vegan diet
The AfD parliamentary group is calling for warnings about vegan diets. The Federal Center for Health Education (BZgA) should “explicitly and emphatically warn of the dangers of a vegan diet without the additional intake of supplements, especially for risk groups”, according to a motion (20/9798). The warnings would have to be visible digitally on the website of the Federal Agency. Furthermore, the warnings should be included in corresponding printed materials, including a list of possible symptoms of malnutrition.

They are simply against everything. That’s the way they operate. Their party platform states that they want to remove all subsidies for farmers. At the same time they are protesting that a very small part of those subsidies is being removed. They try sow chaos, hatred and division. An AfD politician even said: “The worse Germany is doing, the better it is for the AfD”
When I hear Nazi, I think “Ah, someone disagreed with an asshole”, and I don’t think “Hitler”.
These are some of people that are currently protesting:

This really is about Nazis and not just about an asshole.
you can get protests for absurd things.
And you can protest for the right thing. E.g for democracy, freedom and against racism and autocracy.
The majority of those who are protesting are normal people. Even the catholic and protestant churches have called to attend the protests.

Hundreds of thousand of people are protesting every day. This is not a protest by some fringe groups. This is a mass protests by ordinary citizens because our freedoms and our democracy is under attack.
and how Germany’s hate speech laws are abused.
And the next lie … Really, either stop posting or check your sources. That’s (far-right) bullshit.
Im basing my judgement off of some Americans protesting for Hamas
Germany is not the USA. That some Americans are protesting for Hamas has nothing to do with Germany.
Edit:
BTW, in Bremen 40,000 protested today. In Cologne another 70,000 protested. In Munich the protest had to be stopped after after more than 100.0000 (conservative estimate) people came together before the protest even started. And that are only some cities where protests are happening today. There are (peaceful) protests every day all over Germany and protests continue.
Maybe you belief German Jews than:
The President of the Central Council of Jews in Germany Josef Schuster expresses deep concern about the AfD’s high poll numbers.
“The right-wing extremist party currently has nationwide support that I would not have imagined even in my nightmares, and this causes me serious concern,” said Schuster in an interview with Web.de.News.
The AfD is ‘largely nationalist, racist, and ethnically exclusive,’ and it ‘clearly also embodies Nazi ideals,’ added the Central Council President. ‘If a party like the AfD were ever to be part of a federal government, one would have to seriously consider whether Jewish life is still possible in Germany.’
Schuster recalled that Charlotte Knobloch, a Holocaust survivor and President of the Munich Jewish Community, said in 2006 that the Jews in Germany had finally unpacked their bags.
‘That statement was absolutely accurate at the time,’ he said. ‘Today, one or two people are already looking in the attic where they stowed the empty suitcase, so they can have it ready to hand again.”
Stop making broad claims just because you read one article on Wikipedia.
Do you really belief such protests on an unprecedented scale are happening all over Germany (my country) because the AfD doesn’t like terrorists?
The headline is not wrong but somewhat misleading. Yesterday there where more than 300,000 people protesting against the Nazi party (AfD) and yesterday wasn’t even the first or the last day of protests.
People are realizing that we are not talking about an ultra-conservative party but about an anti-democratic and racist party that wants to deport millions of people - many of them Germans - from Germany. That is exactly the plan Hitler had and that led to the Holocaust.
Edit:
Those people lost their minds.
The AfD parliamentary group leader for Saxony-Anhalt, Ulrich Siegmund, is also in the room. It is he who will, later on in the day’s proceedings, appeal for donations. He has considerable influence within the AfD; the party is currently polling in first place in Saxony-Anhalt. His sales pitch, very much in keeping with the “masterplan” of Sellner, details his ideas to change the image of German streets. Foreign restaurants would be put under pressure. Living in Saxony-Anhalt should be made “as unattractive as possible for this clientele.” And that could be accomplished very, very easily, he claims. His comments could have consequences for the region’s upcoming elections.

No more indian / chinese / greek / italian / thai … restaurants. Only schnitzel and pork roast.
Why is he even allowed to enter Germany?
According to the “Act on the General Freedom of Movement for EU Citizens” EU citizens that pose a risk to public order and/or security can loose their entitlement. He is without any doubt such a risk. He’s a foreigner and a clear danger to our country.
an increasing number of people aren’t voting at all
That seems wrong. At least in Thuringia, Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt (the states mentioned in the paper) voter turnout has been quite stable the last 20 years.
A quick search leads to:
https://www.wahlen.sachsen.de/landtagswahl-historie-eckdaten.html
The scapegoat thing is a big part of it, but the other problem is that there is no credible “working class” left party left in the German political spectrum.
At least in East-Germany people simply may not want a left party. They are voting far-right because they are far-right / neo-Nazi themselves.
Auto-translated:
The study also found a high level of approval for right-wing extremist statements in the eastern German states. Chauvinistic and xenophobic statements were rejected by only a minority of respondents, the project leaders emphasized. Elements of neo-NS ideology were not expressed openly to the same extent, but anti-Semitic and Social Darwinist statements also met with approval - a third of the population agreed with them completely or in part. The approval is pronounced in the German states of Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia, he said. "Here, the potential for extreme right-wing and neo-Nazi parties to find voters is thus particularly high. One in two wants a ‘strong party’ that embodies the ‘Volksgemeinschaft’ as a whole. Instead of pluralistic diversity of interests, a völkisch community is desired," Brähler explained. Decker added: “Our study shows that currently many people in the eastern German states do not want more democratic participation and the safeguarding of basic democratic rights, but rather the apparent security of authoritarian statehood.”
According to the survey, satisfaction with democracy as it functions in everyday life is weak. Not even half of the population feels that they are part of it. This corresponds with the high level of political deprivation: Two-thirds consider it pointless to be politically active, and hardly anyone believes they have any influence on the government. This is matched by the fact that, next to authoritarian aggression, the conspiracy mentality is the most widespread element of the authoritarian syndrome. “So we observe a pronounced foreignness with democracy, it is not understood by many as something of its own,” adds Dr. Johannes Kiess, deputy director of EFBI, who was involved in the study. These values have remained constant for about 20 years.
The longing for the GDR is pronounced, two-thirds share it. Three quarters felt themselves to be East Germans. However, many also felt German and a citizen of the Federal Republic, so several identities can exist in parallel. Only half count themselves among the winners of German unity, while a third count themselves among the losers. This retrospective view of the GDR is related not least to the desire for a one-party dictatorship, as illustrated by the high level of agreement with the demand for “a single strong party that embodies the national community.” These results show that extreme right-wing parties with their ideological offerings have numerous points of contact with the breadth of the population. Consequently, most AfD supporters have extreme right-wing attitudes.
