What do they have in mind for us? German government is set to enact a new hate speech law which obliges social media companies like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to hand over user data to Germany’s federal police even before any wrongdoing has been established

Germany has offered Joe Biden a “Marshall Plan for democracy” in the wake of the U.S. Capitol riot. German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas on Friday called on the incoming Democratic administration to join the European Union in backing a “wide-reaching pro-democracy initiative” to counter the “enemies of liberal democracy.”

While the original Marshall Plan was a U.S.-funded program to rebuilt post-war Europe, the German initiative appears to be geared to fight the opponents of the globalist order. “We must not yield any room to the enemies of liberal democracy,” Maas declared while rolling out his transnational proposal.

“Foreign Minister Maas forged the initiative “Alliance for Multilateralism” in 2019 comprising of 60 nations. Following the riots on the Capitol, he wants to build a similar initiative with the U.S. to counter extremism,” German weekly Der Spiegel reported Friday.

The “enemies of liberal democracy” and “extremists” are apparent references to the supporters of President Donald Trump in the U.S. and to the surging populist anti-establishment movements in Europe.

German state broadcaster Deutsche Welle reported the foreign minister’s proposal:

In the aftermath of the storming of the US Capitol, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas called for a wide-reaching pro-democracy initiative spearheaded by Washington and its EU allies.

“We are ready to work with the United States on a joint Marshall Plan for democracy,” Maas told the German news agency DPA on Saturday.

The original Marshall Plan was a US economic campaign launched in 1948 to rebuild 18 war-torn Western European nations. The US-allied West Germany was among the biggest beneficiaries.

On Saturday, Germany’s Maas echoed worldwide condemnation of Donald Trump supporters who had breached the US Capitol building while the lawmakers were working to certify election results.

“We must not yield any room to the enemies of liberal democracy,” Maas said. “This applies not only in the USA, but also here in Germany and Europe.”

Maas did not provide details on the idea. However, he pointed to President-elect Joe Biden’s call to create a network of democratic nations. The German foreign minister also greeted Biden’s pledge of political reconciliation within the US following the Trump presidency.

The call for a new transatlantic Marshall Plan comes at a time when Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government is considering a sweeping ban on “hate speech” on the social media and the internet.

German government is set to enact a new hate speech law which obliges social media companies like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to hand over user data to Germany’s federal police (the BKA) even before any wrongdoing has been established, media reports confirm.

Since President Trump took office, foreign minister Maas has been vying for a greater role for Germany and EU. In a 2017 article titled “Making Plans for a New World Order,” he called for the EU to become a “counterweight” to the United States.

With Maas at the helm of Germany’s foreign policy, Berlin has done everything to sabotage President Trump’s policy to isolate and weaken the Islamic regime of Iran. Mass was instrumental in the creation of an independent payment system to bypass U.S. sanctions on Tehran.

From his first day in office, Germany has been at loggerheads with the U.S. president on issues ranging from the globalist climate agenda to Europe’s appeasement of China.

Berlin has been enraged by President Trump’s decision to pull a substantial number of U.S. troops out of Germany. The U.S. president refused to bolster Germany’s defenses while Chancellor Merkel’s government pushes to make country ‘captive’ to Moscow be increasing its reliance on Russian gas. Despite Washington’s objections, Germany is moving ahead with its multi-billion Russia gas pipeline projects.

Germany wanted German law in France, Belgium, Nederland, Poland, Austria, Russia, Algeria, Morrocco, etc. In the late 1930s and early 1940's too.

Now that the EU can't siphon off the UK's money they have turned their greedy little eyes further west to the the biggest potential sugar daddy at the dance.

I say let them eat schnitzel.

I am not old enough to remember the last time Germany brought this up. If my Garand could talk, the comment would be along the lines of " Not this [bleep] again".

From the article:

"Germany has offered Joe Biden a “Marshall Plan for democracy” in the wake of the U.S. Capitol riot. German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas on Friday called on the incoming Democratic administration to join the European Union in backing a “wide-reaching pro-democracy initiative” to counter the “enemies of liberal democracy.” "

That's the ticket--lessons on democracy from Deutschland.

If the EU is so great, why are there rumblings about leaving from Denmark, the Netherlands, France, Italy, Spain, Greece and Chechia????

Germany is playing a dangerous game, she wants to crawl in bed with the Russkies for cheap energy to fuel the German economy to dominate the EU, but she knows sleeping with the Russkies is risky business because history shows you can wake up pregnant with a bloody horses head in the bed...so she has had the US completely foot the bill to defend Germany since WWII to keep the Russkies from getting too frisky...and now, to make the one world EU happy, control the real golden goose, the US, with gentle socialism. We sent the Germans to school in WWI and WWII, did they learn anything?


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

The one certainty in socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money. So you just go get more people.....

Actually, final U.S. development of the atomic bomb was not completed until after Germany had surrendered. Both Germany and Japan were working on developing the bomb as well. Few are aware of this, but Japan was not very far behind us at all in developing one. In fact, the Japs had plans for using a "dirty bomb" (radiation only) on San Francisco, scheduled for just a few days after they actually surrendered. We were so very fortunate to have bombed them twice with nukes to compel them to surrender when they did. Little did they know that we had no more nuclear material readily on hand to build anymore quickly at the time.

Yeah, last time they pushed that idea they were pretty insistent.

Yeah, Germans are pretty well known for pushing trade agreements and globalisation for the simple reason of a big part of our economy being built on export.
I feel like that's the main underlying reason for this. A lot of my countrymen also have a pretty high opinion of themselves and speak authoritatively on freedom (isn't that ironic?) and what constitutes a good government.
Historically, this has always been the case. In colonial times there was a saying "Am Deutschen Wesen soll die Welt genesen" which roughly translated means "The German nature shall lead to the recovery of the world".
Nowadays we just hide it behind pseudo-progressive policy.
