After his controversial appearance in the ARD anniversary show “75 years of ARD”, which brought him allegations of racism, Dieter Hallervorden has now spoken out on Facebook. In his contribution, he sharply criticized the media.
The stone of the kick -off: Hallervorden had shown a new version of his sketch “in the merchant shop” in the show. He used the N-word and the Z-word. In the sketch he plays a prison inmate who – as indicated – sits in prison because of these terms. The ARD showed the scene without comment. This led to violent criticism in social networks and the media.
Dieter Hallervorden defends himself: “Good thing”
Hallervorden rejects the allegations. “Satire is no longer understood, this time it affects yesterday’s broadcast of the anniversary program 75 years of ARD“, He writes. The question” Why did the broadcaster broadcast the derailments of Hallervorden? ” And “Why did the ARD allow this moment uncensored?” His answer: “Good thing.” Hallervorden emphasizes that he does not want to censor or let himself be pushed into a corner. He expressly thanks the ARD.
Criticism of the media and “woke culture”
Especially the handling of the media with the so -called “allegation”, as he calls it, is a thorn in the side. He criticizes that many journalists: on the inside would simply not understand the satirical context. He once again tries criticism of the “Woke culture”: “Woe to today try to dance anxious not to dance out of line. They meticulously follow all social media bids so as not to lose likes. They no longer understand satire because it no longer occurs for fear of misunderstanding.”
Dieter Hallervorden: “SatIe regulation exhausted-merz-t”
Journalist also: Inside, your fat gets away. According to Hallervorden, the satirical regulation was lost in many places: “There were times when a journalist was able to answer these questions himself. Satal regulation was part of the basic equipment of the writing guild.” The satire gene is now “exhausted”, he alludes to CDU boss Friedrich Merz.
“Outrage instead of real criticism”
If it goes to Hallervorden, there is a lack of courage for real social criticism today. Instead of naming grievances, you prefer to concentrate on a sketch.
“In the absence of courage to get excited about the real grievances, because they are not fashionable to denounce, you can get over a comedian.”
At the end of his contribution, Hallervorden spans a wide political arc from his sketch to security policy. Here he warns of dangerous developments. In his opinion, the federal government accepts the death of thousands of young people. You think about the Bundeswehr by 70,000 soldiers: to enlarge inside. Hallervorden refers to an NATO estimate, according to which 5,000 soldiers dail in an emergency: on the inside on the “Eastern Front”. His conclusion: “I take every bet that a satire with government officials in jail would be on the index-and that” cannon food on the Eastern Front ‘is not allowed to say in the course of our new understanding of democracy. “
