German anti-mask protester compares herself to Sophie Scholl during speech

Guardian News published this video item, entitled “German anti-mask protester compares herself to Sophie Scholl during speech” – below is their description.

A video of a German anti-lockdown protester comparing herself to a Nazi resistance fighter has gone viral after a security guard walked off a stage accusing her of ‘trivialising’ the Holocaust.

The woman was speaking in Hannover on Saturday when she told fellow protesters: ‘I feel like Sophie Scholl, since I’ve been active in the resistance, giving speeches, going to protests, distributing flyers.’

While the female protester was talking, a young security guard approached the stage, saying he would not stand for ‘such bullshit’.

The woman then threw down the mic in anger.
