   A banner at Pride in Neukolln compared cops and judges to pigs - a very common comparison on the radical left - and Tagesspiegel decided that this was really about Jews because pigs aren’t Kosher. It’s beyond farcical at this point. German media are just making stuff up.

   This was after German cops beat up Pride demonstrators.

   And yes ofc, they could have easily said this was islamophobic since porc isn’t Halal either, but they are fine with islamophobia

     @ayoub the word »pig« for cops and judges etc was coined by the Black Panthers in the 1960ies.
     It is in fact an expression of their reified relation to their environment, and i think it should be abandoned. Also, why would one like to insult a species that is very smart, very sensitive and very peaceful?
