In Germany, sweeping slurs against women can be punishable as incitement to hatred.

Communications that are considered illegal include posts in which women are slandered and insulted in a sexualized manner, or publicly encouraged to send nude photos. The authorities also flagged posts that advocated rape or sexual assault or that distributed videos of torture or killing.

The raids concentrated on suspects who had set their sights on well-known women like female politicians

    As any liberal knows, completely arbitrary law enforcement is the basic building block of a functioning democracy.

    In Gommunist Gyna, people are arrested for the things they say about politicians.
