60 Minutes recently interviewed some politicians in Germany who like to prosecute people for insulting politicians.
Their names are Josephine Ballon, Matthäus Fink, Svenja Meininghaus, and Frank-Michael Laue.
Since they like to prosecute people who insult politicians, it is my moral obligation to insult them.
I should point out that I have never actually been in Germany.
My grandmother (on my mother’s side) did have three sisters who were murdered by the Nazis.
As it says on my Twitter profile, I believe that every child should frequently watch Looney Tunes, the Three Stooges, Jonny Quest, and You Can’t Do That On Television. I grew up watching all of those, and they helped to make me the huge opponent of authoritarianism that I am today. Also a big shout-out to the The Twilight Zone season 2 episode “The Obsolete Man.” I also give credit to writers George Orwell and Ayn Rand.
Anyway, here’s the full piece from 60 Minutes:
