A security guard at an anti-lockdown rally in Germany  quit on the spot after the speaker compared herself to Sophie Scholl, the Nazi resistance fighter who was executed by Adolf Hitler’s regime aged just 22.

Footage shows a speaker telling the gathering: “I feel like Sophie Scholl because I have been in the resistance for months making speeches … I am 22, just like Sophie Scholl before she fell victim to the Nazis. I can and never will give up to stand for freedom, love and justice.”

At this point a security guard walks up to the speaker and hands back his high-vis vest, stating: “I won’t go along with such bullshit.. for such bullshit I do not make security.”

He then adds: “With the best will in the world – this is trivializing the Holocaust.”  He was then ushered away from the stage by police.
