Weird how the government that is absolutely hated by the majority of Germans and continues doubling down on the policy vast majority of people disagree with is screeching about authoritarianism

Habeck and his Green party have been scapegoating and criminalizing Muslims for supporting Palestine. They've changed their immigration policy to align with European fascists. They've sent weapons to Ukrainian Neo-Nazis and to Israel's far-right government, while they are committing genocide. This guy is not an anti-fascist at all, and so his warning rings hollow.
You are delusional.
They did all that. This is reality.
Nobody was arrested for supporting Palestine. Not a single person. Some specific people within the protests were temporary arrested for calling to murder Jews. That's an important difference. Calling to murder someone is a crime in Germany. Their personal data was registered and they will maybe have to pay a fine. That's how a state of law operates against non-violent crime in progress. You cannot just let it happen.
Immigration policy was not changed to align with European fascists. The fascists want to stop immigration and deport all migrants and their descendants. Immigration under Green party policy is not only possible but wanted (and needed).
Ukraine is not run by Neo-Nazis. I'd suggest you to stop watching so much Russian propaganda.

Bullshit.
The German state’s show of support has led to an outright banning of most pro-Palestine protests.

Some of the images circulating from the Neukölln protests have been disturbing: minors arrested for wearing the colors of the Palestinian flag, a woman of Jewish-Israeli descent detained for carrying an anti-war message in Herrmannplatz, a central square in Neukölln.
Ok, next:
Immigration policy was not changed to align with European fascists.
Yes it was. The Greens supported a so-called compromise with the Italian fascist government.

In addition, the vague activation of emergency measures due to the so-called “weaponised” migration, which will be defined as such by national governments, raises eyebrows and may be exploited politically, MEPs warn.
The new deal, which was sealed after years of negotiations, was hailed by southern EU member states’ governments.
In Rome, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said, “Italy does not feel alone” anymore
The Greens, as part of the German government, support this deal that Meloni is praising.

Der Parteivorstand plädiert für einen schärferen Kurs, wie in der Ampelkoalition vereinbart. Asylverfahren an den EU-Außengrenzen, Rückführungen, Kürzung von Sozialleistungen für Geflüchtete.
Translation: The [Green party] leadership advocates for a harsher course, as was agreed by the traffic-light coalition. Asylum process at the EU borders [i.e. camps], deportations, cutting social services for refugees.
These used to be far-right demands only a couple of years ago
Ukraine is not run by Neo-Nazis.
That's not what I said. I said the German government sent weapons to Ukrainian Neo-Nazis. The German government sends weapons to Ukraine, and they give some of them to far-right units like the Azov battalion (now reformed into to 3rd Assault Brigade), and they know that this is happening.
You are calling me delusional for things that have been widely reported, while you deny those things. Who's delusional here?
Said guy whose government is arresting people for protesting genocide this government support.
Nobody was arrested for protesting against Israel or genocide in Germany. That's a blatant lie. Some people are being arrested temporary for their call to murder all Jews. There is a clear difference: There are thousands of people protesting peacefully against Israel's war - only a few of them are overstepping hard while doing so. Stopping these select people from committing further crimes in accordance with the state of law is called nuance.
Don't commit crimes in Germany (call for murder) and nobody will arrest you.
Nobody was arrested for protesting against Israel or genocide in Germany. That’s a blatant lie.
You are spreading blatant lies.

On October 13, Berlin police declared uttering the slogan “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” forbidden and indictable.
