Trump randomly put a regional German Antifa group on his terrorist list, which entails consequences for any financial institutes dealing with them. Days later, a German bank that sells itself as ethical, sustainable, solidary and humanist (called GLS) out of the blue cancelled the accounts of Germany’s most important legal advice group for left wing people under political persecution. Basically bending over to Trump and threatening one of the key antifascist groups in Germany. Make no mistake, European democracies are under fascist attack.

That’s how sanctions work. They don’t have a choice – if you do business with someone sanctioned by the US, you will have issues and can be blocked from using USD + kicked out of SWIFT.
Same thing happened to the ICC recently. It sucks, the banks can’t do much about it and just shows that we need independence from the US.
I see no proof for a causality
Americans should stop bringing their shit to europe.
Sad, but goes to show that our country has always ever just been as liberal and free as the US would allow it to be.
We have to become independent and not allow any further political extertion of influence by the US right now. Domestic and foreign companies and political actors who are complicit with this should be sanctioned and tried for treason.

LOL-.
What a bunch of crap propaganda, that framing is insane.
More like normal people are under attack of presumably ‘anti’ fascist NGOs which push everything but sane middle spectrum political views.Â
Happy that this crap has finally an end, Hufeisentheorie is real. Fascist and ‘anti’-fascist are all the same crap.Â
They should advertise as Germanys first fascist bank.
GLS Bank is routed in Anthroposophy like Demeter…
This group openly supported the RAF, a German terrorist organization. In this case they deserve it.

Antifa is remembering me in fact former SA groups, that has nothing to do with the “middle of society”.
