Depends on what upsets you :)
As for me, about 19 minutes in, I’ve learnt that it is okay to prevent discussion of historical events, “SINCE DENYING HISTORICAL FACTS CANNOT BE CONSIDERED A PERSONAL OPINION.”
She conveniently forgets that historical facts are subject to new findings and discoveries just as any other facts, except in Germany, where you’ll go to prison for challenging any of them theoretically (but only a selected few in practice).
Also, you’re supposedly prevented from incitement to hatred in Germany. Inexplicably though, you can praise Stalin’s or Mao’s supposed achievements and you can build a monument to the greatest inciter of hatred ever, Karl Marx, yet that goes unpunished. You can wear T-shirts depicting mass murderers such as Guevara freely. You can proudly display the red ☆ or ☭ or call for the extermination of all Jews under the guise of freedom for Palestine with hardly any consequences. Make it make sense…
Other than that, it’s not a bad video actually, even if a bit too optimistic about free speech in Germany and Europe while being a bit condescending about the same in the U.S.
