The title of the show was “What’s going on with the youth culture?”, In view of the subsequent events, however, a completely different question arose: How can you endure all the hypocrisy, all the bigotry and all the reactionary wool-our-adolf-again?
Nina Hagen got all the hatred of the spit citizens
The fact was that the German -speaking tabloid press – otherwise not averse to the gender in words and pictures – were wealthy what the stuff thought. The letter to the editor raged over all the “dirt”, wanted to send Ms. Hagen “to the labor camp”. So the full program, and a great level knife for which wind blew in 1979.
Why all the excitement? It was only superficial about sex, about “obscene”. It was an aggressive, deeply unsettled bourgeoisie, which spoke out there, which was almost grateful for a specific reason to finally be able to trumpet all his hatred and to stand on the “morally clean side”.
Hate on punks, rockers and hippies, on youth cultures in general, to tolerance, joie de vivre and confident women who would never pretend an orgasm. There was also a victim: moderator Dieter Seefranz, which was suspended from service for six months.
