Found this on hacker news, some people there say this data dump is total bs and for the news page itself:

It's an article from an Indian right wing conspiracy news website. Check out their other hard hitting journalism: <https://archive.ph/8RGAb>"

Yeah that is why "deportation" is the wrong word being used... It is an "opinion" piece from one Berlin based journalist, that obviously lacks some legal details or is trying to use a catchy headline.

I especially like it when the article says the used "objects that could have been used as potential weapons". It was fucking AXES they used and obviously the Uni employees were horrified when it happened. Not saying that is right to restrict EU citizens movement in such cases. I'd prefer a proper trial before that happens but they certainly didn't behave very well.

In case of the US citizen I guess you could call it a deportation/expulsion.

Some translated legal background for you guys:

Strictly speaking, in the case of EU citizens, this is not referred to as expulsion/deportation, but as loss of freedom of movement. ‘EU citizens entitled to freedom of movement can lose their right of residence for reasons of public order, security or health,’ according to the website of the Federal Ministry of the Interior.

Particularly stringent conditions apply to the loss of residence on grounds of public order or security. ‘There must be an actual and sufficiently serious threat to public order or security that affects a fundamental interest of society. This threat must be based on the personal behaviour of the EU citizen,’ writes the Federal Ministry of the Interior on its website.

People who do not come from the EU are referred to as deportees. This is the case here for one person. If a person from a third country jeopardises public safety and order, the free democratic basic order or other significant public interests through their stay, they can be expelled.

There is some interesting stuff to find. I didn't know the German ministry of interior is building its own FOSS matrix based messenger, lol https://gitlab.opencode.de/bwi/bundesmessenger/info

I was also sceptical but it seems to be generally true, however the details of it are way more complicated. Read for yourself if you know German or use a translator, one of the biggest Berlin newspapers picked it up and added details : https://www.tagesspiegel.de/berlin/nach-beteiligung-an-palastina-protesten-in-berlin-drei-eu-burgern-und-einem-studenten-aus-den-usa-droht-ausweisung-13468543.html

It's true, most of your comments seem to have a positive upvote score and therefore more upvotes than downvotes. Your Yale comment seems to have attracted the most downvotes in recent time, currently "-14" "upvotes"/points (seems that some lemmy clients just call them "points")

So actually it seems that currently Lemmy itself doesnt support showing one users total upvotes/downvotes as this would very much resemble the reddit Karma system and they dont want that.

However as all your comments and the total sum of votes for each comment(I think also the bare numbers of upvotes/downvotes are visible via Api access) are public one could theoretically write a script or build this into a Lemmy client. However the 3 clients I just used to test this don't support this and probably don't want to.
