German police ask Gab to hand over private info of user who called politician fat

Different century, same old Germany!

According to Andrew Torba, the CEO of social media platform Gab, German authorities have demanded that they hand over user data ... because a fat politician was called fat.

According to ze Germans, two posts sexualized Ricarda Lang, denigrated her weight, attacked the "honor of the politician" and disrespected her in violation of "section 185 of the German criminal code."

(Fun fact: Lang is the first "openly bisexual" member of the German parliament!)

Section 185 of the German criminal code naturally follows section 184, which outlaws comedy, and just before the less controversial section 186 that outlaws Jews.

"The posts are written in German and the user speaks German. Thus, we suspect that the user currently lives in Germany," wrote the Bundeskriminalamt (the German federal police).

The data they want includes full name, date of birth, email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses, payment methods and proof of address.
