German police celebrates International Women’s Day

Perfect optics. Exactly the outcome the protesters were looking for.

ACAB forever.

Those cops punch like I do in my dreams. Throwin hay makers and not landing a single shot. Pathetic

Flying flags of an Arab country on a day dedicated to women's rights is insulting.
- Western countries complicit in genocide on Arab women, daring to open their mouths about women's rights as an authority is insolent.

Yea, gonna need a source on this one. Not buying it otherwise

  I really appreciate the link to a story on this because I hate out of context video. But I really wish they had used a different outlet like Mastodon or Bluesky, I hate giving any traffic to Xwitter.
- Are you being malicious or just stupid?
  
  for real, who watches this video and thinks "nah, riot police would never do that - I demand a source" 🤦‍♀️
  EDIT: reading TingoTenga's comment history, I wonder if they were intending to be sarcastic or humorous? Or maybe they are just responding to the title of the post and not the video?

it’s a signal that if they wanna protest for Palestine, they can do it in their homeland but not in EU
Seriously, why ruin International Woman’s Day by mixing it with Palestine conflict 🫤
- Because the EU and especially Germany is mass murdering and oppressing women in Palestine.
  Liberals barging in here like the shining beacon of racism they are is truly disgusting. But examplary of its ideology. "Equality for all who are white."
  
  You high or something? You realize that it's Women's Day right?
  
  I don’t know why are you shifting the topic on something else, but the conflict in Palestine was there since ages and now you’re all looking to point some fingers at someone ¯(ツ)_/¯

We will maybe break up with usa but never with israel. Fucking shameful what germany of all places is endorsing.
- As a state, it's easier to support Israel than to actually take some fucking responsibility.

Were they actually breaking any law or did the government just decide it wanted to give them a beating?

  "They are being investigated for particularly serious breach of the peace, liberation of prisoners, resisting law enforcement officers and using symbols of unconstitutional and terrorist organizations."[...]
  "Seven officers were injured, but were able to continue their duties. Journalists were also attacked. 28 people were reportedly arrested." [...] "Participants also used umbrellas to block the view of a pro-Palestinian block. Some police officers were attacked with bottles, kicks and punches. Officers then “repeatedly used physical force”, it was reported."
- Maybe a hot take but if you are breaking the law, you should still not receive a beating.
- I don't know the context of the video.
  But yes, covering your face on a demonstration is illegal and can lead to up to 1 year in jail.

  Up to 1 year in jail and 20 punches to the face apparently...
  
  How are you going to build a fascist database of enemies if the protestors cover their face?
- The German state is incredibly repressive against solidarity for Palestine.
  
  Is it? We had many peaceful demonstrations.
  When it got problematic was when people on demonstrations shoutet that they wanted a kalifat (don't know how to write the word) and "from the river ...", because Hamas and other people interpret it differently.
  
  Very fake as most of the pro-palestinian propaganda here and in other websites.
  Being in favor of having a Palestinian state implies that:
  no Hamas or any terrorist organization can be in power
  stop teaching children to hate Jews (very common in Muslim countries by the way)
  stop repressing liberal movement ("we want to live" movement for example, weird that nobody talked about it uh?)
  Israel needs to stop the hostilities but it is absurd that "pro-palestinian" are more and more blind and justify easily the atrocities that the radical Muslims do to their own people. Why do people not have critical thinking?
  This is not a war to obtain the legal status of the State and being recognized by Israel, the place was owned and managed by Egypt, the same that has tunnels connected to Palestine, the same that did not accept any refugees, the same countries around Palestine that did not accept them, even Lebanon where Hezbollah is. This is a war that a terrorist group decided to do because of foreign investments from Muslims that are ideologically against any Jew to be alive, this is why they repressed all the protestors in Palestine ALL THE TIME.
  Do you want to criticize Israel for their behavior? Be my guest, I agree and I am totally against any cruelty or anything that resembles oppression but if you think Hamas or any of them do it for freedom you have absolutely no idea what you are saying and you are naive.
  Mohammad Tawhidi, Mosab Hassan Yousef and hundred of people said exactly this but westerns think they know Islam better than an Imam in Dubai or Saudi Arabia that says exactly how dangerous they are.
