In good news however, it turns out that Israel is not actually doing a Großoffensive in Rafah, they are merely doing a militärische Spezialoperation in the east, and we do love those after all!

Buschmann still did his damnedest to gently caress around with the Selbstbestimmungsgesetz for no other reason but to appeal to some transphobes who'll be opposed to it one way or another. So I'm gonna go with "don't gotta hand it to them"

Apparently it goes back to an ordnance outlawing pro-Russian symbols due to the invasion of Ukraine, such as the current Russian Federation flag or the Z insignia, which was also in place the last two years. This was apparently instituted as a response to pro-Russian shitters trying to use the day to drum up pro-Invasion sentiment. But it's supposed to have exemptions for WW2 veterans, and you'd really think that an relevant historical photograph of a separate state's flag would/should be exempt as well.

OVG bestätigt Verbote der versammlungsrechtlichen Allgemeinverfügung zum 8./9. Mai 2023 – 10/23

Pressemitteilung vom 08.05.2023

Das Oberverwaltungsgericht Berlin-Brandenburg hat heute entschieden, dass weder St.-Georgs-Bänder, St.-Georgs-Fahnen, russische Fahnen und Flaggen noch die Flagge der UdSSR am 9. Mai 2023 vor dem sowjetischen Ehrenmal im Tiergarten gezeigt werden dürfen. Der Senat hat damit eine anderslautende Entscheidung des Verwaltungsgerichts Berlin vom 6. Mai 2023 geändert. Es verbleibt demnach auch insoweit bei den Regelungen der Allgemeinverfügung der Polizei Berlin.

Der 1. Senat hat zur Begründung seiner Entscheidung ausgeführt: Die Prognose der Polizei, dass die Symbole angesichts des fortdauernden Angriffskrieges gegen die Ukraine geeignet seien, Gewaltbereitschaft zu vermitteln, treffe zu. Denn sie könnten im aktuellen Kontext jedenfalls als Sympathiebekundung für die Kriegsführung verstanden werden. Die offenbar gezielte Intensivierung der russischen Luftangriffe auf die Ukraine und ihre Zivilbevölkerung am heutigen Tage trage zu einer weiteren Verschärfung der Konfliktlage bei und zeige, dass eine Trennung des Gedenkens des Kriegsendes und des erneuten Kriegsgeschehens in der Ukraine nicht möglich sei.

Über die Verwendung ukrainischer Symbole hatte der Senat nicht zu entscheiden.

Der Beschluss ist unanfechtbar.

Beschluss vom 8. Mai 2023 – OVG 1 S 42/23

Well, I assume a lot of it comes down to most people not knowing about these things happening, because they are not twitter users and this stuff is not discussed in the Tagesschau, and certainly not in RTL news and similar “news”on private channels.

If you guys did not post this I would not know about it at all and hardly anyone in my circle of 40ish year olds does.

Koi (hen/they), queer­po­li­ti­sche*r Spre­che­r*in der Initiative, sagt: „Wir waren diese ständigen Vorwürfe leid, dass wir uns als queere und trans* Menschen so stark für ein freies Palästina engagieren, als ob wir nicht wüssten, dass die Hamas in Gaza queere Menschen zurzeit noch eher ablehnt und Frauenrechte nicht ganz ausreichend beachtet“, beteuert hen. „Wir sind ja nicht naiv. Aber wir glauben fest an eine Transformation der Hamas in ein genderqueeres Kollektiv nach der erfolgreichen Dekolonialisierung.“
