The police in Berlin said they had blocked over half of the 41 scheduled Gaza solidarity protests, sometimes on the grounds that they would “emotionalize” residents of Palestinian origin. These included a children’s demonstration to mourn the Palestinian children killed by Israeli strikes in the past month. Permitted protests were banned from using slogans such as “stop the war” and “free Palestine.”

Dude, it‘s just not that different here than in other countries in the west. France, England, USA, there are the same debates. I don‘t know why you keep pushing this narrative, that we have some special propaganda here.
