Yeah the oppression of speech in Germany is depressing, you have to be careful of what you write online or you get one of the Meldestellen on your ass (government-funded NGOs) and they will want to destroy your life. There were a lot of high-profile cases in the last six years. Applauded by the media (because they "combat hate speech") and enabled by the EU (thanks to the DSA Trusted Flagger program).

Swastika not being allowed in Germany except in educational or historical context is not exactly a novel change. So, the article can stuff itself with that assumption. And it can stuff mentioned free speech hero JD Vance who want Europe become fascist again too.
