A saudi arabian you say? Time to invade iran.
ive heard they have weapons of mass destruction. So it seems right.
Well here we are again, back to the early 2010’s with attacks. But this time the far right has gained far more popularity, so.
Just tired man.
All signs point to the guy being a zionist, so they’re trying to be vague about it.
All the legacy media coverage i’ve seen today, after his socials have been combed, mention his islamophobia, that he’s a fan of AfD leader Alice Weidel and called for the execution of Angela Merkel for the Great Replacement. None mention his zionism. The absolutely rabid support of Israel amongst the AfD and its supporters is practically never adressed in public, as it is a position that 100% aligns with that of centrist parties now.

I’m getting déjà vu.
Yeah it sucks. Living in a place where attacks have happened before you do get wary. In public transport, in crowded places, during events etc. Sure, chances are small, but it happens. It didn’t happen for a long time and the uneasy feelings settled down for a lot of people. The other day I was talking to my mom about Christmas markets and how she was somewhat scared to go for a while but that things got better. And then it happens again.
And of course immediately social media is full with comments like ‘Defend Europe ✝️’ and other Nazi shit.
Ironically, the attacker is a Saudi Liberal turned Atheist, pro-israel, anti-islam, pro-afd freak
Yeah just woke up to see the news. It’s sad to feel relief about this honestly but it’s a good thing to see.
not like anyone cares though
you’ll always be seen as a muslim and other stuff to them, because for whatever reason it’s hard for some people living in the 21st century to grasp that skin color/nationality immediately doesn’t define ideology
I thought that only existed in theory

I briefly heard about it before going to bed last night. I wrote a quick thing about it now to put my thoughts down: https://criticalresist.substack.com/p/terrorist-rams-car-in-christmas-market.
I doubt this is anything novel here, but the reason they happen is because the bourgeois state stokes the embers until the fire erupts. This is what they want. Scholz, Macron, Merkel, etc. don’t go to these Christmas markets, this is for the proles. They’re safe in their villas and chauffeured trips, enjoying Christmas with Deutsche Bank and BMW execs. Probably talking about how they’re gonna bomb China too.
James Jackson (usually on Xitter) writes a bunch about German current events and has a lot of interesting information about the attacker.

Among other things: he was already on German law enforcement radar a year and a half ago (they didn’t think he was an acute threat). He was given a platform by a US based Islamphobe conspiracy theorist who in turn has been given a platform by Musk and who is on German law enforcement radar. He also worked at the hospital in Magdeburg and publicly wrote death threats against former Chancellor Merkel just weeks ago.
All in all a really weird case, but not unprecedented. A previous shooting was committed by someone with a similar ex-muslim anti-islam ideology, and the German government supports such groups.
