"Immigrants or refugees do not have a higher tendency to commit crime and there is no correlation between the proportion of immigrants in a given district and the local crime rate, according to a new analysis of the latest German crime statistics carried out by the renowned IFO institute.

"These insights aren't actually new," says study's co-author Jean-Victor Alipour. "It just proves what has already been proven, not just for Germany but for many other countries: Namely that there is no systematic connection between immigration and criminality."

The Federal Anti-Discrimination Agency left the online platform "#X" (formerly #Twitter) last November:
antidiskriminierungsstelle.de/…

Their website announces: "Due to the enormous increase in trans- and #queerphobia, #racism, #misogyny, #anti-Semitism and other misanthropic content, "X is no longer a sustainable environment for a public body," said the Independent Federal Commissioner for Anti-Discrimination, #FerdaAtaman, explaining the decision. ... The number of hate comments had also increased so massively that the anti-discrimination office could only counter this with a high level of staffing. "It is questionable whether this can still be justified with taxpayers' money," said Ataman.

"... Ministries and government agencies should ask themselves whether it is still acceptable to remain on a platform that has become a disinformation network and whose owner spreads anti-Semitic, racist and populist content," Ataman added.
