On 25 March 2024, our account with the Berliner Sparkasse was frozen with immediate effect. In a letter, the Sparkasse informed us that it had taken this step as a precautionary measure and that we should submit numerous internal documents by 5 April to update our customer data. As a public corporation, the bank is bound by public law and may therefore not arbitrarily freeze accounts without providing an explanation, which it did not. It is also highly unusual that the required documents include a list of our members with their full names and addresses.

    Anti-semitism is so built into German government and culture that they genuinely think they’re good guys for defending Zionism.

    I’m sick of having to explain this every single time some German comes along and gets offended that I would imply the links between Zionism and Nazism, but the Nazis literally supported Zionism because to them it was a method of getting Jewish people out of the country.
