There's still nothing wrong with that. I don't think anyone voted for 10k Haitians to be dumped on a small town in Ohio that only had a population of 30k to begin with. That is unelected dicks in the federal government making deals with mayors in local governments and suddenly the bus arrives. A king would not fix that problem and literally no one in that town voted for it.

> BNF... British National Front?

Sorry, BND. The Bundesnachrichtendienst.

> I think lots of Right-wingers

No, these are Germans working for their federal government, trying to stop "fascism". It's exactly like the Russian troll farms but they're cosplaying as Nuremspergs on Twitter, random forums, 4chan, and other networks like fedi. They had a court rule against them spying on foreign journos ( https://rsf.org/en/worldwide-mass-surveillance-germany-s-intelligence-service-declared-unconstitutional-landmark ) and consequently started laundering their activities through the BMBF ("Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung", the Federal Ministry of Education and Research). They're the ones that dumped the libsoftiktok dox. (Ironically, the BMBF was tasked with stopping political extremist movements in the 1920s, and one of the people they hired to do this was named Adolf Hitler. After being assigned to watch the National Socialist party, he eventually decided to join it. Needless to say, the organization's strategy backfired in that case, and I have no cause to believe they're doing a better job this time.)

Incidentally, the German government hates fedi because there is no lever to pull. See attached for the German government's report on why they hate fedi. There's no one they can call and influence fedi policy, because there is no fedi policy, just a large number of independently governed servers. They can call up their contact at Youtube, they can threaten to fine Google or block Youtube in the EU, but they can't do this with fedi.

Now, you keep saying "Kings would solve this" but kings are another lever. What solves this is making sure there is no lever.
