An investigation has determined that the leader of one of these NGOs is a former member of the Stasi. She is known to have reported at least two people to the Communist authorities (a writer who was later deported, and an actor who later killed himself), and she is also known to have enjoyed perks exclusive to high-level members of the Party. Despite this, she continues to claim that she never did much and never rose to much. German YouTube host Kraut and Tea has been all over this, using language so strong I can't post his videos here. The latest twist in the matter (the source is one of these videos) is that the German branch of Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream has become a corporate sponsor and partner for this effort... despite, by their own admission, knowing full well that she used to be Stasi. I... don't see this ending well. Sunday21 1 Quote
