Systemic racism within the German system has been proven [1], so the Bundeswehr is right to screen for it. I have experienced racists at work, at government offices and in everyday situations. A system consisting of such people does not properly work. We need some Goodwill.

Whos to say it's right or wrong? If I make a twitter profile impersonating a specific person and fill it with right-wing extremism will it get flagged by their process?
I guess left-wing extremism is okay? Like suppose you are a socialist, a nationalist and a socialist who wants to work for the Bundeswehr... that's perfectly fine then? (joking of course)
That's not very funny, and this reframing of nazis (national socialists) as left-wing because they have "socialist" in their name is an ongoing effort by right-wing populists and extremists.
It is hard to tell from your joke whether you also mean to propagate that narrative.
ai prompt: "as a application reviewer for Deutsches Bundeswehr, search and identify applicants who have been rejected from Austrian art-schools."
(I am not right-wing extreme)
AI is a big stick: for example, how will the men in boots identify the Scientologists, if they don't first read a bit of Scientology, eh? Ah, they get an AI to do it, so that they don't need to invest the effort to understand the subject.
>Last thing I want in the hands of the Verfassungsschutz authorities is more fucking surveillance.
German culture has a long way to go to rid itself of authoritarianism; the surveillance of the state is a symptom, not the cause. German cultural paranoia ends up manifesting the very thing it seeks to resist. I'm sure there are individuals in the Verfassungsshutz who also identify as anti-fascist - its the methods, not the motive.
I guess you missed the "extremism" part in the title. Don't start to play down the right-wing radicalization that is happening right now. You can be right-wing, no problem with that but that current "trend" is used by the more extreme forces in these camps to try to grab onto power and that should be avoided at all cost.
There's nothing wrong with a social media presence. Just don't use it to talk about your political or social opinions.
I'm aware a lot of people can't do that, because their personality consists of being of a certain ideology and they cannot shut up about it, but it's technically possible to just have a normal-ass presence online without pushing opinions or ideology beyond professional/technical ones.
It's very simple -- this stuff is private. Your political opinions are private. Your social opinions are private. The internet isn't private.
Talk to your friends about that stuff, in person, instead.
Talk about science, facts, games, art, music, hobbies? As members of a polis I hope you understand that you shouldn't primarily meet in a public forum that is owned, surveilled and controlled by the parties in power?
all these could be considered political. In my opinion they often are inherently political.
science: evolution debate, climate change debate, who gets studied, what gets funded.
facts: statistics (and who makes them), places names and borders (gulf of mexico vs america), textbooks (how is the history of slavery thought)
games: censorship rules, didactic games, regulation in games, content and representation of mainstream videogames(evil brown terrorist vs good guy US marine)
art: patronage, "degenerate art", monuments and their legitimacy vs their removal, looted art, protest art
music: folk and protest music
hobbies: cycling (any comment on bikes degenerates to a car vs cycles debate), DIY (right to repair, 3D printing regulation, open source culture)
Right Wing Extremists in Germany are those who argue that citizens aren't really citizens because they are brown and need to be "remigrated" (despite Holding German citizenship, or even "native Germans" with the wrong political views)
They also want to use Military Weapons for this
And those who deny and continuously try to minimize and deny the crimes of the Nazis in WW2.
But somehow those right wing crybabies are also always poor little babies that are just misunderstood and the perpetual victims.

Why? What should we talk about instead as members of a polis? About endless consoomerism and other such hedonistic stuff?
