In the middle of a celebration meant to affirm the right to be seen, a rented van became a weapon against the visible. On a Saturday in Berlin, a 21-year-old drove into the crowds of one of Europe's largest Pride gatherings, killing one woman and wounding dozens more before being shot dead by police the following day. The motive remains under investigation, but the act itself carried an unmistakable weight — violence directed not merely at bodies, but at the very idea that certain lives deserve to occupy public space.
