You have big plans. Skeptics of the crown want to set an example in Konstanz (D) at the weekend: against the measures of the crown and for freedom. First a human chain through two countries on Saturday, then a demonstration including a march through the old town on Sunday. The small town becomes an epicenter for lateral thinkers for two days.
The human chain should actually run once around Lake Constance. Across four countries. As a symbol of “peace, freedom and love.” But this idea has since been rejected.
Now a chain from Germany to Austria is planned. From Constance via Bodmann and Lindau to Lustenau in Austria.
Thurgauer tries to sabotage the chain
The lake was divided into 43 sections. In order to keep their distance, participants must bring a scarf or shawls. It remains to be seen whether the chain will actually materialize. On the side of the lateral thinker, all sections are occupied. However, in a different distribution. Some are 100 percent, others only ten percent.
The reliability of the figures is questionable. Because: A Thurgau is trying to sabotage the action. With friends, he signed up for the network a dozen times. This should create gaps. The Swiss cannot understand the uproar the Corona skeptics are making. “The restrictions are so marginal that, in my opinion, they do not justify a demonstration of this form,” the saboteur told the “Südkurier”.
By the way, the skeptics of the Swiss Crown are doing their thing. You organize a chain independently. It is unclear how many have already signed up. Those responsible left a request from BLICK unanswered.
Discussion, music and worship
On Sunday, skeptics of the German Crown called for a large demonstration in Klein Venice Square in Constance, right on the Swiss border. The event should last from 9 am to 10 pm With debates, music, church service and a train through the old town.
Friends from the scene will appear. Among them the pastor Christian Stockmann, the couple of musicians Janin Devi and André Maris, as well as Michael Ballweg, leader of the lateral thinker movement. He also organized the August mega show in Berlin. Back then, an enraged mob pushed aside the barriers and stormed the Reichstag stairs. Only three policemen held off the crowd and prevented them from entering the government building.
The city of Konstanz has more than 25,000 people
Even if lateral thinkers speak out against the measures, strict conditions apply during the demonstration. City spokesman Walter Rügert confirmed this at BLICK’s request.
If distance cannot be kept, a mask is required. If you want to take part in the train around the city, you should also wear mouth and nose protection. And whoever comes from a risk zone is not allowed to participate. In addition, Imperial war flags, Imperial flags, and symbols suggesting the Nazi era are prohibited.
The Konstanz city administration expects more than 25,000 participants for the two Corona Skeptics events alone. Many people. But there should be many more these days. Because: “There have been 27 meetings and demonstrations for the weekend,” said Walter Rügert.
This also includes counter-demonstrations and events that have nothing to do with it. Konstanz city spokesperson to BLICK: “The city has had numerous discussions with the applicants to coordinate the events. There is also intense coordination with the police. “
Thurgau canton police arm themselves
Rügert does not provide any information on how many officers are on duty, for tactical reasons. On the other hand, one thing is clear: the Swiss police are also preparing for the Corona weekend in Constance. Matthias Graf from Thurgau Canton Police to SEE: “Due to the geographical location, for example in Little Venice Square, there is a possibility that the demonstrations will move to our canton area. Therefore, an implementation plan was created. “
Konstanz district currently has 31 infected people as of Thursday. It remains to be seen if the demo weekend will change anything.
