As an individual is there anything we can do to support this case?

I think the most sensible thing to do is gather all the information before taking sides.

There are no names in this story, nobody can confirm or deny it and few of the claims are suspicious.

For example

Unfortunately, the German law foresees only monetary and no other type of compensation

That's not true, most of the sentences favourable to the plaintiff not only award the worker with a monetary compensation but usually order the reinstatement as well.

Of course a court in a country where the legal system is based on the civil law cannot force anybody to ask for forgiveness if the law does not dictate it.

You can't ask to a court of the civil law to emit a verdict that the law does not contemplate.

True, but I think this should become more known to a wider audience to start an investigation.

[mr_woozy]

you're assuming "wider audience" doesn't equate to social media mob, which sadly seems to be the typical progression of such news.

[tutfbhuf]

Agreed, but how to avoid such a mob? The only way would be to be silent about this subject and not share it.

You can spread the word of this story, and make sure people know that this is who decides how donations to the fsfe will be used.

Perhaps a strong drop in donations will be the catalyst for change and self reflection.
