So we have reached an AfD situation in Corona times. In the debate over who gets a platform on political talk shows. Because: Outside, concerned citizens finally demonstrate “against Corona”. People who think that the pandemic is a conspiracy theory, left opponents of vaccination, right-wing extremists who mobilize to “walk”, crowded, without a mask.
Sandra Maischberger’s editorial team said Wednesday night: These people and their concerns must be taken seriously. And he devoted the first 20 minutes to his program, in which the Federal Minister of the Interior, Horst Seehofer and Annalena Baerbock, head of the Greens, were to present themselves later for individual discussions, precisely these “concerns”.
No more?
Oh, she left the field to them. More precisely: Mathias Richling. A regional cabaret artist from Baden-Württemberg with SWR broadcast. A little early for satirical refraction in the frame, but it wasn’t fun anyway.
In mid-March, he said the entire Corona affair was “hysteria” that he “couldn’t understand.” That night, his first sentence was: “I’m not following a conspiracy theory,” then he compared Covid-19 with the flu, as in previous months, and with an earthquake scenario in Lake Constance (yes, that’s the number of people who watched). In general, all virologists said different things, and this RKI Wieler: “He constantly contradicts himself”, since January.

And Maischberger? He kept the topic simmering, showed demo scenes in the background, discovered that there were a few in Germany, but at least 10,000, added: “The word ‘spinner’ has been spoken.” As if he wanted to distance himself from that.
First hold the talk show to give this topic a lot of space, and then use as many lines in it. Second: because the pattern that has had such resounding success in the AfD is now reappearing. Whoever invites the fascists to a round of discussion legitimizes them and their position. So who gives the talk shows who kindly calls the protesters “concerned citizens,” who still equates Covid-19 with the flu four months after the pandemic wave in Wuhan, even two months after the shutdown did not understand. that science is now. In this case, new cognitive processes follow every day and, therefore, evaluations can change: irresponsibly, this leaves a lot of space for the rejection of reality.
Next up are Dieter Nuhr and Uwe Steimle?
Wait. If Richling, with his narrow mindset, represents a large and grumpy group that currently still uses mouthguards: happiness. At least he, 67, with the other guest Ulrich Wickert, 77, friendly pensioners arguing against Richling, represents a group we’ve obviously not heard enough about. The editors’ motto: not all the old whites of the republic have said anything about the situation, let’s take them!
And it was only because Maischberger stepped in that he sometimes had a chance to talk about who has a clue: Pia Heinemann, a multi-award winning science journalist. “I can’t find the comparison quite adequate,” he told the earthquake number and patiently explained everything from the primitive slime: Covid-19 with consequential damage, why it was important to buy time through the blockade that our masks protect others, that it is succinct “Guys, there is something, behave yourself” it would not have been enough for Merkel that she liked the regionalization of the strategies and: “Mr. Richling, we do not know the virus”.

Wait a minute: political conversation without politicians?
Yes, but almost as a marginal figure. When Seehofer got there and shortly before the end, Baerbock was almost irrelevant in what they said: they made a beautiful figure. Seehofer gave the jovial friend of the people and Merkel, no matter how Maischberger drilled: Merkel had accomplished a “great achievement” with her crisis management, “I should also say that.” The skirmishes with the Bavarian Prime Minister Markus Söder: they are from the “Neanderthal” period, he rejected them.
Nothing specific? Things were going well today!
Seehofer actually provided information on the day’s decisions, travel keywords, vacations, road here: “I am He is confident that “freedom of travel will be applied again in Europe from June 15,” but that is not a promise. “And:” We would also like to have more certainty. But we don’t know how the virus develops. “So everything gradually, the numbers in the border area in sight.
For the party leader, Baerbock, only the remaining ramp remained. One minute of recordings with Greens, who in the video conference “Hello?” say and “turn on the microphone”. Also, extensive consultations about her life as a mother in the home office. Analysis of current policies for (bad) women and (also bad) families. Demand for more nurseries in East Germany (because more women are working more) and tests in nurseries and schools so that mothers do not disappear from the scene in their professional lives (because they cannot always be present in video calls, for example).

How and what about the climate-economic complex of the teaser?
Sandra Maischberger stated three minutes before the end: “So, now to the economy, our second great topic.” And, therefore, it impressively demonstrated how it does not matter to speak of climate and political protection, that in this economic crisis it is not based indiscriminately on car purchase premiums. But the billions “climate neutral” invested. “We have to avoid the things that will stand us up in five or ten years.”
Knowledge of the night?
Those who have not yet realized what can fly around our feet in the coming weeks will not catch up on that show at half past one. Meanwhile, elsewhere it took 15 minutes for Tacheles to speak.
