    In germany, they would probably just beat us senseless and set fire to us in a cell.

      There have been solidarity rallies in Germany though. This one is from 2019 and it happened in Berlin:

      However, I haven’t seen new ones. Maybe, just maybe, germans might surprise us with a massive rally in favor of the oppressed.

        Yes of course. There are rallies at times but since 2019 a lot has changed and there is a huge difference between a group of 20 people holding a venezuela or cuba banner and a huge banner on a building with hammer and sickle on it.

        Dozens of protesters have been maimed or killed in germany in recent years and the amount of structural violence in germany is off the charts. If you are member of the dkp, you can lose your teachers job or your administrative job, you will be treated as less at your job, etc. Its quite brutal although of course not comparable to the people we stand up for.

        You might have seen what happened in gießen. The protestors were completely peaceful and still some had their bones broken, allegedly intentional. German police has dozens of deadly and non deadly weapons, tank like protection and sprays chemicals on people which can blind them permanently.

          Well, damn. 😢 However, I am confident that you, german comrades, will find a way through this.
