Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.

Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

deporting someone to a place where they get starved, shot or lynched should not be permitted in a civilized nation

You're talking about the one American student who might get his student visa revoked? Because the other three are EU citizens and would only be banned from entering Germany (still a very harsh punishment and I don't think justifiable, especially without actual conviction). So they could still freely move in the rest of the Schengen Zone if I understood correctly.

I was talking more in general about turning to the American playbook, deporting Gaza protesters who are often are from precarious countries not strictly theese concrete 4. But deporting a trans person to proto-facist america is also not that nice. We also just deported a left protester to right extremist/ proto-facist Hungary and although a court literally ruled she can not be deported because she will face inhumane prison conditions and psychological torture, the Ausländerbehörde pulled through with it before the court could reached this decision.

Wow I just looked up the case of the Hungarian protestor, Maja T.. That's almost exactly the same stuff that's been happening in America lately. Despicable jow my country is failing in these areas, again...
