NIUS reported that a truck driver association condemned a video by Jan Böhmermann, in which the murder of the AfD politician Ulrich Siegmund was staged.

The ÖRR Blog published the criticism of the professional association BLV-pro against a video by Jan Böhmermann. The association stated that the portrayal of a GDR moped rider as a parody of the AfD politician Siegmund, who is repeatedly run over by a truck while riding a Simson, creates the impression that Siegmund is wished dead, or at least that this outcome is accepted. BLV-pro also criticized that the video generally depicts truck drivers as violent and exploits their profession for provocation. In light of the deaths of four young moped drivers, the portrayal is particularly disrespectful. The association also noted that the contribution is financed with public funds. BLV-pro announced that it is examining legal action and filing a complaint. The association demanded a public statement, a clear distancing from the portrayal, and respect for truck drivers. #OerrBlog #Protest #Satire #LkwFahrer (translated)

Der Vorwurf des „Antisemitismus“ verkommt immer mehr zum pauschalen Kampfbegriff rechtskonservativer Rhetorik. Die fatale Folge dieser parteipolitischen Instrumentalisierung: Der Begriff stumpft ab, echter Judenhass wird enttabuisiert und der Kampf dagegen nachhaltig beschädigt. #Antisemitismus #Rechtskonservativ #Judenhass #Thetweetdoesnotmentionspecificcountries.Therefore #theresponseis:
