I know I'll sound as nutty as a Q Anon idiot, but it seems like a false flag attack. Or something close to it
Even if you are right, the actions were still done by individuals that should take full consequences. I doubt the opposite side would be able to (even if they wanted) convince a non islamic person to do something like that.
In serbia there were several instances of people driving into anti vucic demonstrations.
The complainants claim that Vučić previously encouraged motorists to drive through crowds of protesting students.
It seems you just need an authority figur and willing followers.
Good point, but there are no proofs Vučič encouraged anyone to do it. I belive he did though, but we shouldn't presume things like that. We were talknig about Germany. Serbia is not even in EU.
On 1 December, Vučić made a statement following a similar incident in which he questioned whether the driver should be held responsible and arrested. He said the man was "going his way" and added, “Those who claim that such drivers should be arrested should splash their faces with cold water.”
If you don't see this as encouraging then I can't help you.
Its sad when these tragedies occur some people instead use it to push promote their right-wing beliefs (ie mass deportation). Shows that they don't really care about the victims.
Even worse that this is the second attack. People already hate third worlders enough :(
You can hear the sound of the AfD getting a collective erection.
Are they paying these guys or what?
Since the collapse of the coalition and the new election on its way it would be dumb not to.
There were three major incidents involving immigrants since the collapse and not one could be linked to a terrorist organization.
It sounds like a complete conspiracy theory but I think this is too much to be coincidence
Compared to the rest of Europe this is statistically impossible.
This is going to be a political shitshow. I feel bad for all the families who are going to have to watch their loved ones deaths be used as propaganda.
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
