Is this like Minority-Report-type shit?

The Germans have a history of these things, they try to pretend it's all in the past but here they are right back to their old ways. It's unacceptable for anyone to be detained in this way, period.

Yeah, us evil, evil Germans ... lol

Please educate yourself: There are rightwing tendencies even in your country, but they're coloured differently.

If you'd take a closer look at world politics you'd find that there is an alarming trend concerning exactly this.

Best example would be Italy - they've just elected a right-wing party and all hells breaking loose as they've started restructuring the social security system over there, leaving many, many families moneyless. Without any warning in advance. And that's just the start.

China is still on with their genocide - the Uigur must die it seems, no matter what. There's still concentration camps.

I could go on for hours.

But yeah. You're right. Us Germans are notorious and blind towards our history.
