German Students now ‘Nazis’ for criticising illegal migration
Leftist suppression of freedom of speech becomes increasingly worse in Germany. Many students no longer dare to openly voice their opinion on migration policy, the Epoch Times reports.
The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party received several reports from students who have been called Nazi for criticising Angela Merkel’s migration policy.
From this school year, the AfD started a “Neutral School Initiative” in Germany’s second largest city Hamburg. Goal of the initiative is to battle political indoctrination and to strengthen a democratic and free discourse in Hamburg schools.
The party received complaints about Muslim prayers and about the political climate at Hamburg schools.
“We receive information on incidents that address the demonstrative prayer of Muslims in Hamburg schools. This may result in conflicts between the preservation of school peace and the negative denial of the rest of the student body,” local AfD spokesman Alexander Wolf says.
“Many students also report on a discussion climate in political education in which they no longer dare to criticise the refugee policy of Angela Merkel, because they were denigrated and called ‘Nazis’ by classmates,” Wolf adds.
The AfD spokesman also gives examples of teachers who violate a neutral school environment:
“Problematic are messages from people who pretend to be teachers and violently offend our party or even threaten it with violence. This behaviour is shameful; but it also shows that we have initiated an uncomfortable and necessary debate with our action.”
According to the AfD “Violations of the neutrality rule are not a trivial offence, because behind it is usually the deliberate attempt to collect students – or at the level of the school authorities and teachers – for party political or ideological goals”.
