Haha, yes. I think there's a difference between being intolerant if Nazi beliefs people facing equal punishment and singling out people that are not citizens for different treatment.

That is, of course, how the Nazis started out. Of course all Germans were to be treated equally. Guess who weren't considered real Germans.

Why are the police that approved the rally not facing repercussions? That's what if like to know.

I read here that "Police said legal advice suggested blocking the rally was unlikely to succeed in court."

Whether that's for real or BS, I don't know. It does add weight to the claim that the police need more powers. Whether that is a good or bad thing, well, that article looks at the erosion of protest rights over time.

And keep in mind, that the Police will be able to apply their powers for any worthy protests/rallies/gatherings the same as they would with Nazi protests.

Like the recent greens candidate who was actually a lawyer, protesting Palestinian genocide and lost her eye due to excessive police force.

ain't a paradox when you frame it as a social contract.
