The Federal Republic of Germany is a highly developed economy; the fourth largest in the world, whose economy is buoyed by high industrialization that is powered through high energy consumption. Germany obtains more than half of its natural gas, a third of its heating oil and half of its coal from the Russian Federation at cheap prices. In the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the European Union of which Germany is a leading member has started implementing plans to phase out the EU's dependence on Russian energy, which is one of the cheapest in the world, as a punishment to Russia. The early implementation phases of this plan have already resulted in a looming de-industrialization of Germany with industries having to shut down due to lack of energy to operate. Workers are being laid off and the German population braces for a harsh weather as heating oil is rationed.

Social Murder' is a term coined by Friedrich Engels in 1845 and used to describe murder committed by the political and social elite. They commit this murder by knowingly permitting conditions where the poorest and most vulnerable in society are deprived of the necessities of life and are placed in a position in which they cannot reasonably be expected to live. These harsh conditions lead to an early and unnatural death of those affected. For the purpose of this debate, 'self defense mechanisms' refers to actions of self defense against social murder, akin to self defense at the point of physical human threat.

For the purpose of this debate, retrospective justice refers to de-platforming persons for actions committed in the past which have come to light in the present.
