The rise of right-wing extremist and populist parties all over the world, in Europe and especially here in Germany must fill every democrat with deep concern. We can only stop this if everyone everywhere (in the family, at work, with customers and in public) says loudly and clearly NO, STOP and “NEVER AGAIN” IS NOW to inhuman statements and actions.
Democracy and freedom (in the social, political and also economic sense) do not come for free, they have to be earned and defended every day. With this in mind, let us all disagree calmly but clearly when people “use hate speech” instead of “arguments” and “lie” instead of ” prove with facts”. Thank you for your attention and your support.
