Here’s the funny part: the reasoning is that a Marxist standpoint supposedly subdivides people into classes, which is dehumanising.

The “junge Welt” is the only newspaper observed by the “Verfassungsschutz”, Germany’s secret service for internal security (which is notorious for being subverted by Nazis, like actual fucking Nazis, as well as their sympathisers like it’s former boss Hans-Georg Maaßen).

    Love to claim a descriptive classification is actually prescriptive and thus dehumanising. German anti-communism is just something else entirely ffs

      "wow people are subdivided into these shitty classes, which is awful, so we should prevent them from being subdivided"

      "whoa, you're subdividing them? Sounds like Hitler talk"

    Obviously this is bullshit but I get why they're doing it, they don't want people gaining class conscious.

      Yep, unlike capitalism where no division of labor exists and everyone's a winner......wonder where all this humanitarianism was when they "disciplined" Greece

        The exact same giga chuds who will tell you that Marxism is a hate crime are also deeply convinced that Greece wasn't bled dry enough by the neo-colonialist austerity measures Germany hit them with. In fact, some of them were so furious about turning Greece into a debt colony that they started their own chud party right of the CDU.

        That was the AfD, who later turned out to be full of fash :surprised-pika:

    Here’s some news: The people are divided into classes whether Marx said so or not and it doesn’t take a genius to see that

    In communist China, freedom of the press is nonexistent and the media has to follow the party line

    Lol, BRD has always been and will always be anti-communist. Just lastweek or so they acted on PEGIDA, a few years after they stopped being relevant. Compare that to how they observe even the most harmless demsocs, or leftist organisations. Remember when the SDP banned all members of Kommunist Organisations from holding any goverment job? For example teacher, as opposed to banning Nazis. :germany-cool:

    Also does the fact that marxism is anti-constitutional mean that works like das Kapital are now forbidden from being kept in public libraries, or printed? Like Junge Welt is?

      This poem is well-known in Germany, it's even part of most schools' curriculum - yet somehow, for some mysterious reason, German conservatives still insist on coming for the communists first. :thinkin-lenin:

        First they came for the communists, but they learned since the last time :hst-gun:

          "They" in this case including the SPD, which of course is part of the federal government, is of course incapable of effective resistance against fascism, is of course as anti-communist as ever, and is as usual unaware that they'll be next.

    Don't worry if they follow this logic to its inevitable conclusion, the court will simply outlaw capitalism for creating the current class system.
