You know it’s a weird year for planet Earth when the words “German” and “comedy” keep cropping up in the same sentence. But a weird year it is, and crop up they have, most recently in reference to thirty-five-year-old Jan Böhmermann. Böhmermann is…

In Germany, it turns out, you can totally get away with calling a foreign president “goat-fucker.”

Merkel has pledged to draft legislation that would make the Lèse-majesté laws "dispensable in the future," but she should be doing everything in her power to ensure Mr. Bohmermann does not face legal consequences for his satire.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and German Chancellor Angela Merkel joined the so-called Paris March in the aftermath of the 2015 Charlie Hebdo Shootings.  Although these leaders of democratic nations joined millions to protest violence against free speech, even as Muslims around the world decried the publication’s disrespectful depiction of the Prophet Muhammad, the two appear to believe insulting the Turkish President is a far more serious matter worthy of censorship.  In allowing German citizen Jan Bohmermann to be prosecuted for insulting Erdogan , Merkel undermines free speech while encouraging Erdogan’s campaign to consolidate power and crackdown on critics at home.

 Civil liberties, including freedom of speech, are supposed to ensure no one will face legal consequences for saying something that offends others.  Any law or government that fails to respect this fundamental principle degrades the very purpose of having civil liberties.  Because government scrutiny is at the heart of democracy and “free speech” ensures government officials face scrutiny, the idea that someone would face jail time for insulting a government official is thoroughly undemocratic. Citizens of democracies may not enjoy the protection of their governments and their civil liberties when in foreign lands, but they are always entitled to those protections within the free world.

Update for Aprlil 9 - 15

Satire in support of Jan Böhmermann 

Despite that I wasn’t supposed to post update this week, something happened that required my immediate reaction.

Some stupid president of Turkey wants to prosecute German comedian for offending him, and Merkel cowardly allows for that, same does shitty German law.

Satirical Justice Warrior stands in support of Jan Böhmermann, against totalitarian tyranny of offended, for freedom of speech and for everlasting artistic freedom!

Also, my new management told me to drop lazy pseudo-anime shit and start developing my own style.

Erdo-how, Erdo-where, Erdoğun - Continued

Erdo-how, Erdo-where, Erdoğun – Continued

You mean to tell me that Erdoğan is still mad about the video?  Let us re-hash … first there was the song/video “Erdowie, Erdowo, Erdoğan” that aired on Germany’s NDR, a regional television channel, as I reported in my  post of 9 April 2016.

Left there, it might have been well and fine, as although Erdoğan complained to the German Ambassador and “demanded” it be removed, the German government…
