Wanted to let you guys know that we see you! Today one of Germany biggest and oldest news broadcasters (Tagesschau) had a whole segment about the protests today. Prime time slot as well. Daily news show. Thank you for showing up! And may the protest grow more and more so change will inevitably come. You the people have the power. You’ve done it before, you can do it again! History has enough examples that prove this! You’ve got this. And please keep showing up! Do not give up, change doesn’t happen over night.

Godspeed, an Ally from Germany, whose grandparents didn’t fight enough to stop Fascism. And we all know of the consequences.

Better coverage of US protests than in the US.

This is by design.

All our media is controlled by the owning class.

My late best friend, who was studying postgraduate politics and public policy, used to start the day by doing household chores while listening to the news across multiple different channels. He said that the German news often had far better coverage and analysis of UK events than UK news did.

Fun fact: the Tagesschau presenter seen in the shot is nicknamed Superman!

It's so encouraging see all this support from our allies! I'm so sorry things have gotten so bad globally on our account. We're doing our best to fix things as quickly as possible!
