The decision concerns a Facebook post depicting the Auschwitz gate with the slogan “Impfen macht frei” (“Vaccination sets you free”) in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Federal Court of Justice held that the image trivialised the Holocaust by equating public health measures and vaccination policies with the persecution and extermination of Jews under National Socialism. The conviction for incitement to hatred was upheld, and the court also noted the antisemitic conspiracy narrative conveyed by the depiction of Bill Gates.
