Staatsschutz ermittelt gegen Familienvater im Häftlings-Kostüm

Ein 43-Jähriger schien just damit größte Probleme zu haben. Jedenfalls kam er mit einem Häftlings-Kostüm und einem Pappschild mit der Aufschrift „Maske macht frei“ zu der Versammlung, sein 14-jähriger Sohn trug eine Gasmaske. Polizisten nahmen die Personalien des Vaters auf. Wegen der Anspielung auf die Konzentrationslager der Nationalsozialisten, über deren Toren der Schriftzug „Arbeit macht frei“ geschrieben stand, ermittelt nun der Staatsschutz.

Remember that my views are quite clouded by the years i spent in the Auto Industry.

You are right though, get the gently caress away from O2. I moved 2 Weeks ago and now i am a Vodafone Customer for poo poo fast cable internet and im p happy with that. Gonna bring mobile over next year when my O2 contract finally runs out.

I really cant complain about insurances yet. part of that is though that my only contacts with insurance cases were unverschuldete Car Accidents, where it comes in handy when half of your former Kommilitonen became Sachverständige and know how to write a Gutachten to maximise Cash in the Täsch.

Compared to O2? Sure! I once wanted to install internet access from those guys. The Installation would have been on some Wednesday 1,5 months later. In the mean time I decided to cancel that order, sent them an email, got an automatic reply and another one. Sent one later with another reply. And after I already assumed everything was settled and I forgot all about that, that date came along. Obviously I wasn't home, but the cable guy came along and demanded a payment, for wasting his time. I had to literally wait an hour on the phone customer service and they did not accept any of that, until I sent them may complete email history, wrt to that order cancellation. At first, they also wanted me to come over to their main office. To be fair, back then I was only living a few kilometre away from them.

But to be honest, I am actually sort of satisfied with my O2 phone contract. I guess, as long as I don't need their customer support.

Btw: How far is this allowed? Can teachers decide to show movies about anti-choice propaganda, or movies which quite deliberately portrait some groups of people in a negative light?

Have a look at the „Beutelsbacher Konsens“ for what is considered acceptable. Bad teachers like to abuse their job to broadcast their usually not so informed opinion.

As the audience has to attend and is in an Abhängigkeitsverhältnis this can be really tiresome. I don‘t think there‘s empirical data on how widespread it is, but I‘m sure everybody can contribute anecdotal evidence.

Still no noticeable uptick in those Covid numbers. I think this wave could be declared over soon. I have no real reason to assume that everything is over, but restrictions kept getting loosened 2-3 weeks ago and there hasn't been any sort if noticeable effect.

I think we'll be alright as long as mass events stay closed. NO Oktoberfest!

Fall will kinda suck, since the regular flu will come again and make people wonder wether they have covid, but I am confident that the summer will work out fine.

We can come to the office since April "if we want to". Amazingly, some of my colleagues actually want to. One colleague has steadfastly refused to work from home even one day, and he's still alive.

It seems like warm weather plus masks plus people being careful is enough to keep covid numbers down. Though it might start up again anytime, once the weather changes, or people get tired of being safe.

Looks like you're advised (but not required) to quarantine if you come back from a country with more than 50 cumulative cases per 100.000 inhabitants over the last 7 days. Which nowhere in Europe currently exceeds. Obviously this only applies without symptoms and/or contact to confirmed cases, though.

Out of curiosity, I looked up recent quarantine updates of my employer, and: "Personen, die aus dem Nicht-EU-Ausland in die EU, Island, Liechtenstein, Norwegen oder die Schweiz einreisen, dürfen die Universität zu Köln – unabhängig von der Dauer des Aufenthalts und davon, ob sie Symptome aufweisen – für 14 Tage nach Einreise nicht betreten. Für sie besteht ein Hausverbot für die Universität zu Köln (Gelände und Gebäude)." I hate it when I can't enter any of the Universitäten zu Köln anywhere in the Schengen area

A lot can happen in a month.

I‘m happy we seem to be doing ok but the sense of impending doom is still fresh. Bet the summer has a lot to do with it and the cancelled gatherings. It’s gonna be interesting/scary to see what happens once flu season kicks back into gear.

I‘m still working from home and probably will until June 30 when my contract runs out. Work is extremely „it’s up to you“ and a lot of people have already returned to work despite that.

With everything we are learning about Superspreitzer the decreasing numbers make a lot of sense. A normal person with the virus is just not very contagious and it's not the end of the world if we don't catch everyone, as long as we catch the responsible Spreitzer.

Also, please report every suspect Superspreitzer to the police. Feuchte Aussprache? Loud talker? Might as well be Hitler.
