Police identify suspect after van plows into Berlin Pride crowd, 1 killed
Heartbroken by Berlin Pride🇩🇪 Despite any pressure, Chiitan stands with good-hearted LGBT people They only want to live truly & love freely not luxury, but quiet soul-led lives. Chiitan keeps sharing this until they live calmly, authentically & proudly🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Gemma Izek128The police let this happen to us. Credible threats against the celebration have been made since last year, when a group of neonazis were arrested on the way to the 2025 parade to murder us. Nothing has been done. We are told "people can say what they want" when we report the threats.
Echo61fucked that this is how I'm finding out about this
Danny 🦖10Awful, awful news. I imagine not many people outside of Berlin know about this so thank you for the insight. And thank you for being one of the most vocal allies out there. Much love to Berlin and jpn from America.
Dio 🐻 Team Mystery ❔🌒6the fact that people are only finding out about what happened through a chiitan post of all things makes me feel both absolutely heartbroken and angry. thank you chiitan <3 this is a little bit of positivity i needed to see
Phouresssst🏳️⚧️6THERE'S MULTIPLE IDENTICAL CHIITANS? This goes deeper than I thought, also thanks for being an ally! :3
🔞☆Shimetta☆🔞2Thank you, I found out about this through this post. 💕
Brooklyn Rousseau11It's a Romp of Chiitan! A group of Sea Otters on land is called a Romp, in the water a Raft, and when they are sharing a shelter a Lodge. I just learned this and thought it was adorable! if you didn't know, now you know! 😁🖤
still mambo (Team Comedy)7chiitan i would die for you
rowdy6Chiitan is unironically doing more good for queer folks than any democrat politician I'm a #friendofChiitan
Tundy5If you're out of the loop, an assailant rammed a car into a Pride event in Berlin, then got out and attacked participants before fleeing the scene. One dead and more than twenty injured. The perpetrator was shot and killed 24 hours later during a confrontation with law enforcement.
maggPi Prime2Chiitan is beginning to put ALT text, but doesn't quite get its purpose. The message is good, but it SHOULD say: 5 Chiitans pose on the pavement in front of a modest building with a small garden of potted plants. Chiitan is a peach-coloured mascot with a pink turtle hat. They are very cute.
✨ 𝐸𝓋 ✨2Man... this is how I find out
Will2probably not a good reflection on the news that chiitan is how I'm finding out about this
It’s important to note in this moment that the attacks on the LGBTQ community are global in nature. My heart goes out to the victims at Berlin Pride.
wet ass pasta14Why can’t they just leave us alone. Just…god it’s so horrifying.
Richard Summerbell9I noticed at Toronto Pride the police had new portable, easily erected barricades in place designed to prevent sudden vehicle entry at all susceptible intersections.
Gwen4The culprit was located earlier today I belive and died during the confrontation, he apparently attacked an officer with a, roughly translated, stabbing weapon. So probably a knife of some sort. The officer he attacked doesnt seem to be the one who fired. (Source being the Tageschau)
Rubyrubyrubyrubyru 🏳️⚧️1Attacker has now been killed by the police I believe
My thoughts are with everyone affected by the horrific attack in Berlin and their families. This appalling act of violence has no place in our society. London stands in solidarity with Berlin’s LGBTQ+ community. This is why Pride matters. Those who seek to spread hatred and division will never win.
Andrew Hickey103My dislike of quote-dunking does not apply to elected representatives of the party responsible for the most anti-LGBTQ+ actions of any government in my lifetime, one that is literally attempting a trans genocide, trying to pretend the party he represents isn't worse than this.
รℓσαɳε ℓყรɓεƭɦ 🏳️🌈68you are a member of the most disgustingly anti-lgbt+ party in living memory.
Courtney Love is a Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Fast and 2 Furiosa67why do all the mayor’s posts about trans or pride always have the interactions disabled, weird huh
Bianca Michelle Parker31Gosh I wonder why he disabled replies on this, were people pointing out something about the policies of the party he belongs to? We may never know
Miss Winters21While you’re still Labour your words are meaningless.. grow a fucking spine
sabrina's dilemma12your government stands with the people who perpetrated this hate crime, this targeted mass murder, and theyre empowered by your continual silence and complicity with bigot genocidaires trans liberation now
Robert Dallas Gray10your party has contributed more than maybe any other organisation on earth to the normalisation of hatred against lgbt people. your words are ashes in your mouth.
Professor Boot10The sheer brass neck you've got to post this while belonging to the Labour Party. One ignorant bastard with a car can't do half the damage a bigoted government can. You should be ashamed.
Daveybot7You keep using that word, ‘solidarity’. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Anthony6If you’re turning replies off you’re probably a cunt. Anyway, insert hotdogguy . gif
The deadly terror attack against Berlin Pride yesterday is yet another reminder that LGBTQ people are under threat globally. Whether in Iran, Russia, Qatar, Europe, Uganda, or the U.S., an array of extremists want us gone & are willing to act on their goal to eliminate us. We’re not going anywhere.
✨your weirdo friend✨10Any comment on the deadly attacks in Palestine, and how you supported legislation that would attack people's first amendment rights to object to genocide? As a trans person, habitually abandoned by white cis gay people, my solidarity is will ALL peoples slated for annihilated.
bbblueblue.bsky.social5And you're the biggest extremist of them all and combined with the biggest kill count and white phosphorus on tiny babies your extremism beats all! www.instagram.com/reel/DbJdPIo...
Williams.4I hate that any person has to demand that they belong. No person should have to state their worth.
Ubique3Don't forget Trump; he wants them gone too.
rataxescalderalive.bsky.social3You left out the United States as the heart of global bigotry
Cathy1have always been here haven’t gone anywhere have always been here Be proud be safe be strong my heart goes out to all those affected by the hate that some inflict upon others
Nein, der Anschlag galt nicht “friedlich feiernden Menschen”, er galt nicht der “Stadt der Freiheit” oder “uns allen”. Es waren queere Menschen: Lesben, Schwulen, Bi & trans… Ist das so schwer auszusprechen? Wo ist das Problem? 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🎈😢 #pride #csd #Berlin #trauerundwut www.welt.de/politik/deut...
Nihilistin_BER26Es ist das Grundproblem der CDU. Gedanken und Gebete und Halbmastfahnen für „tote Feiernde“ vs Kürzungen für queere Projekte, fehlenden Rainbowfahnen auf dem Reichstag und widerliche Zirkuszuschreibungen. Die Partei und ihr Personal sind das Problem.
Monika Herrmann 🚴23Das "Zirkuszelt" soll ihm im Hals stecken bleiben 😡
Renate Künast12Ja, der Anschlag galt Schwulen und Lesben. Aber es gehen und feiern auch Heteros mit. Wir wissen noch nicht wer konkret Opfer wurde. Allerdings sind die im Besonderen traumatisiert , denen der Anschlag galt. Lasst uns zusammen bleiben.
elShoggotho7Ich glaube nicht, dass Friedrich Merz mit der Legalität homosexueller Beziehungen einverstanden ist. Da dürfte der Hase im Pfeffer liegen.
[tu vah]7und es ist vor allem immer noch eine Demonstration mit klarer Aussage, was gern vom Rest der Welt vergessen wird
Bjårne Witt🍌⚡️(3 ⭐ Bewertung)6In Abwandlung: "wer 'wir' sagt, will betrügen"
When we march at LGBT+ Pride events we are echoing the Stonewall rioters' demand for human rights, safety and dignity. When someone attacks a Pride event, as we saw so horrifically in Berlin this weekend, they mean to silence the rest of us. We must only shout louder. We are love, and we will win.
Duncan Hothersall22All public events are susceptible to attack. We can mitigate the risks, as many events do with barriers and careful policing, but we can never make them 100% safe. Everyone who marches needs to understand that. Pride isn't a party or a parade. It's a demand, and we will not take no for an answer.
melaniej49.bsky.social2It is insane that any group of humans must march for human rights in the United States during the 21st century. Is it time we march against the humans who deprive others from human rights, instead? Christian Fundamentalists suck.
Police have shot dead the German national suspected of involvement in the attack on Berlin Pride.
RG Poulussen6He came at the police with a knife. Always wondering why they don't aim at the legs, in those cases.
rogeralien.bsky.social4Glad to hear he’s no longer a threat to others
BrianB2Probably for the best. You'd never rehabilitate a lunatic like that. Good riddance.
ewigeliberal.bsky.social1We never do stop having beasts in the *garten*. 😔 Thanks for sharing good news in a shitty story.
The far right will attempt to use the attack on the Berlin Pride celebration to promote bigotry and state violence. Don't fall for it. In the US, far-right vigilantes regularly carry out vehicular attacks, and far-right politicians are even trying to legalize them. crimethinc.com/VehicularAtt...
CrimethInc. Ex-Workers' Collective127As soon as the attack in Berlin occurred, a Sieg-Heiling white supremacist named Elon Musk seized the opportunity to promote deporting all non-white immigrants. Remember, within 72 hours of buying Twitter, Elon Musk was using it to spread homophobic conspiracy theories: www.them.us/story/elon-m...
Viele-als-Einer2In Germany we had vehicular terror attacks by islamist right-wing extremists and by anti-muslim right-wing extremists. Whats the common denominator?
tuzueca1yet elon swears he hasn't influence UK
🇩🇪🕯️Reuters: One person has been killed and 17 injured, with some in life-threatening condition, after a vehicle mowed down a crowd near Berlin's Pride celebrations on Saturday evening. Police said they had identified an Islamist as a suspect and were seeking his arrest.
Daniel Jipa 🇷🇴🇪🇺8Fanatic muslims found common ground with fanatic christians
siebensiebensieben.bsky.social5Still unclear if one person or more. Praying on for finding him/them and all who are affected. And naturally the dead woman and the three people in hospital who are still fighting for their lives.
avidpro.bsky.social4An Islamist... not the first time not the last time... tough decisions ahead, lets not be afraid of them.
Fella T 🇨🇿🇪🇺2Wir schaffen das - Angela Merkel, 2015 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wir_sch...
breisinger.bsky.social1It is not all Muslims but it is always a muslim
MrIncredible1The reflexive ‘Merkel!!1!’ response here often says more about the commentator’s political agenda. The responsibility lies with the perpetrator, not with an 11year-old political slogan. Anyone who exploits terrorist attacks to fuel prejudice and seeking to deepen social division…
German police: Fatal attack at Berlin Pride event was Islamic extremist terror: apnews.com/article/germ...
Sagebear9Hey Queers for Palestine you told us the Muslims loved the gays.
Dr Mitch Planko (MD-DS)5I thought Muslims loved LGBTQ???
Fiat justitia, Ruat caelum2Huh. If true, it only goes to show extremists in any religion, like the extremist “Christians” here in America, are not representative of the faiths they claim to believe in.
Seeing AI generated solidarity posts about the attack on Berlin Pride like „Chatie make it sound sad and sincere, add something symbolizing Berlin and Pride“ and then it‘s the Brandenburger Tor with a rainbow flag and some generic text, congrats you outsourced your humanity
Yves Jeanrenaud5It's dishonesty down to the core. I'm so mad this happened and so sad for those hurt and I hate all who poured gas into the fires of hatred against queers for their own fuckedup political agendas. cdu/csu, we're all looking at you, too. It's such a disgrace
sh1gg1.bsky.social2Really incredible that people do this. If you can’t find the right words yourself, just repost someone whose words resonate (maybe not AI, though)
