The fire that broke out on a bridge across the Teltow canal in the south-west of the capital early on Saturday could deprive up to 35,000 homes and 1,900 businesses of electricity – and in many cases heat – until 8 January, the grid company Stromnetz Berlin said.
As state security authorities opened an investigation into the cause of the blaze near the Lichterfelde heat and power station that damaged several high-voltage cables, the Vulkangruppe (Volcano Group) said.

The area affected by the power cut includes many elderly care homes and hospitals as well as high-rise buildings with residents who are reliant on elevators that are now out of order. Berlin received moderate snowfall at the weekend and night-time temperatures plunged well below freezing.

A previous arson attack attributed to the far left in September knocked out electricity for 60 hours in the south-east of the city in what was reportedly Berlin’s longest power cut since the second world war.

The authoritarian left is what I call them. The same people that think others should be murdered for their speech.

Source for that claim?
D’aww does someone want to platform Nazis and got yelled at?
Advocating to kill & lock people up for speech is fascism. I’m OG anti fascist.
That is literally nothing to do with fascism. Umberto Eco’s Ur-Fascism’s 14 points are a good introduction as to what defines fascism.
You might be thinking of authoritarian, but to argue intolerance of intolerance is such would still be a stretch.
Oh God here we go with the paradox of tolerance propaganda that you’ll use to claim we should kill every Christian & their kids, and their dogs too. Maybe you should read more than Popper, or even some of his later work & stop treating everything like a handbook used by Zionist to justify their aggression & genocide. There are plenty of great philosophers that also challenged his work. I really don’t know what to say except that killing people that disagree with you is what fascists do as well, and speech isn’t killing you. People prefer good ideas over bad ones, and so if you have better ideas then offer those up. You will win people over by not turning violent.
"Hate begets hate; violence begets violence; toughness begets a greater toughness. We must meet the forces of hate with the power of love… Our aim must never be to defeat or humiliate the white man, but to win his friendship and understanding.
The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy, instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth. Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate. Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
