That’s why I don’t believe in life after death, nor in heaven or hell. But I know: Ms. Haverbeck was a Christian. Good thing: She, who dedicated her life to denying hell on earth, is currently finding out if there is one after that.[image or embed]—Guido Kühn (@guido-kuehn.bsky.social) 21. November 2024 at 18:14The 96-year-old Haverbeck had been active in the neo-Nazi scene for decades and had repeatedly publicly denied the Holocaust. For this and for incitement to hatred, she was repeatedly sentenced to fines and imprisonment – most recently on June 26th at the Hamburg Regional Court. She was supposed to serve another year in prison, but the verdict was not yet final.Bonus

This is a fascinating piece! It combines social commentary, political satire, and reflections on current events. Here are some open-ended questions to spark discussion and explore different viewpoints:
