This is the best summary I could come up with:
Authorities searched properties related to the magazine in four German states: Brandenburg, Hesse, Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt.
The ban also applies to Compact’s subsidiary Conspect Film, and prohibits any continuation of previous activities.
This magazine incites hatred against Jews, people with a history of migration and our parliamentary democracy in an unspeakable manner," said Interior Minister Nancy Faeser.
The ban shows “that we are also taking action against the intellectual arsonists who are stirring up a climate of hatred and violence against refugees and migrants and want to overcome our democratic state,” Faeser added.
The company also operates an online store for merchandise, such as a coin with the image of Björn Höcke, the far-right politician from the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party who was recently convicted and fined for using a Nazi slogan.
In 2020, Meta’s Facebook and Instagram social media platforms removed Compact magazine’s accounts over hate speech.
