Can you provide examples that wouldn't be easily interpreted as trolling or personal attacks in any other context?
The ones cited here are just that to me (if you replaced the underlying talking points with, say, quilting). I wouldn't have an issue with moderators removing bad attitude/faith content in these cases.

mods are more than happy to use Germany's bad laws to shield their own
From experience in various German online forums, I'd say that it's very typical to see "anticipatory obedience" in all regards, not just relating to "Volksverhetzung" related topics. Seems to be a cultural thing.
Here, I'm purely referring to the instance-wide post about the admins' stance on policy, not to any of the cited mod actions which may or may not be seen as apologetic to zionism.
However, I don't agree with the blanket attribution of this behavior to "racism and fascism".

Just from a linguistic point of view: Death to X primarily associates with living beings, making me (a German, incidentally) automatically feel threatened if an angry mob would chant "Death to Germany" on my doorstep.
If I'd say "Death to @Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com" and then later tried to explain that of course I was only speaking of that account, not the person, that would be a weak justification too.
