Ye was briefly able to upload the song to the popular music streaming services Spotify and SoundCloud.

Isn't SoundCloud in Germany? [Checks Wikipedia] Yes, it is.

Isn't promotion of Hitler and Nazism in Germany a serious crime? [Checks Qwant] Yes, it is.

E.g.

Imprisonment, not exceeding five years, or a fine, will be the punishment for whoever, in public or in an assembly, approves, denies or minimizes an act described in § 220a(1) [i.e., genocide] committed under National Socialism, in a manner which is liable to disturb the public peace.

EXTRADITE KANYE!

Meanwhile, on the American side of the border, some brands are proudly advertising their US roots.

Ford last month ran a campaign with the tagline "From America. For America."

Maybe people could "guerrilla advertise": for those US brands kowtowing to MAGA in the US, copy & paste their US advertising over their adverts elsewhere in the world (hoardings, bus shelters, public transport etc), driving home to people where these brands are really from.

E.g. Cover up their overseas "disguise" adverts

  • "We're so local and lovely!"

with their US MAGA adverts

  • "America - FUCK YEAH!" (in Ford's case "From America. For America.")

I mean, obviously, with permission of the owners/operators of said advertising locations, I wouldn't be suggesting vandalism...

Unless Jesse Ventura came out of retirement and won a seat in Congress without me knowing it, it's all just MAGA kayfabe.

I mean, if these poor little ICE agents can be felled by the bodyslamming skills of [checks article] a congressperson, I'll tear through them like a hurricane!

Pay for the 20,000 new brownshirts (sorry, Homeland Security & ICE agents) he just said he'll hire.

I'd never heard of it. Seems interesting and appropriate.

Nice one.

But obviously that will be rescinded at some point because:

[on the two fighters tracking Red Dwarf]

  • Holly: They're from Earth.
  • Lister: That's 3 million years away.
  • Holly: They're from the Norweb Federation.
  • Lister: What's that?
  • Holly: The North Western Electricity Board. They want you, Dave.
  • Lister: Me? Why? What for?
  • Holly: For your crimes against humanity.
  • Lister: You what?
  • Holly: It seems when you left Earth, 3 million years ago, you left two half-eaten German sausages on a plate in your kitchen. Do you know what happens to sausages left unattended for 3 million years?
  • Lister: Yeah, they go mouldy.
  • Holly: Your sausages, Dave, now cover seven-eights of the Earth's surface. Also, you left £17.50 in your bank account. Thanks to compound interest, you now own 98% of all the world's wealth. And because you've hoarded it for 3 million years, nobody's got any money except for you and Norweb.
  • Lister: Why Norweb?
  • Holly: You left a light on in the bathroom. I've got a final demand here for £180 billion.

He should be in the uniform of the Democratic Order Of Planets, given that he is Zapp Brannigan made flesh (but orangier).
