German Bundestag, Plenarprotokoll 21/50, pp. 5860-5862.
Frau President. Dear citizens.
A ghost haunts Germany – ominous, it is in every mouth, yet is difficult to hold. It is the much cited civil society. Ascribed to this strange tautology are indeed magical powers: It can in an instant save our democracy, and conveniently has the ever exactly correct, thus leftist opinion and agenda. – Let there be an end to this ghost story from the ARD and ZDF! Every awake ten year old meanwhile knows that there is with us a public, state-promoted, opinion guideline
Hendrik
Hoppenstedt (CDU/CSU): What nonsense!
and is beside the reality which every citizen sees if he does not, like you for example, go through life with eyes closed. For precisely that reason is required this motion [Drucksache 21/3301] for the installation of a formal investigating committee. For precisely that reason, we need to illuminate and without compromise clean out the state and party entanglements with so-called NGOs. The term “non-governmental organization” degenerates in a Germany with open eyes into a joke. There are according to strict socialist logic of course many governmental front organizations,
Helge
Limburg (Greens): Yes, you know about that!
financially and careerist wired with Greens, SPD and those still more unappetizing. The approach is not complicated: It is simply the old left approach, “Public funds are enough there”, perverted and driven to the extreme. In any case, typically leftist are the lying leaders with Democracy on the banner, wanting to stifle precisely that.
Helge
Limburg (Greens): Yes, you know about “stifle democracy”! That is your theme!
You attack the party strongest in the polls nationwide with financed snipers because meanwhile you quite precisely know that, by fair means, no more cabbage is to be grown against us.
Helge
Limburg (Greens): Financed snipers from Moscow, you take care of yourself!
You thereby undermine the most basic rules of democracy; and that, we can no longer accept. Here you can cry as you want; you thereby only confirm it.
The famous Federal program “Democracy live!”, for example, received in the last years over 600 million euros.
Clara
Bünger (Linke): “Democracy Live!” is a problem for you! You want “Democracy die!”
It will be so passed on according to practice to thousands of project functions of which the government, according to its own statement, has not the least data. There is often simply some price tag; since Antifa phrases and pedigrees were besides always more important in regards the top jobs. Listen! – “Frau Klingbeil” co-directs the Initiative D21, and “Herr Göring-Eckardt” United4Rescue. Naturally all selflessly for the cause, it is understood.
Dirk Wiese
(SPD): You member Wenzel Schmidt made 450 euros. Do you say something on that? You want to exclude him,
I hear.
By countless NGOs melded to ministries and incited against the opposition are citizens vilified, doing the very thing you accuse us of, namely dividing to your heart’s content – and before all before the Bundestag election.
Helge
Limburg (Greens): How is it actually with your intra-delegation democracy? May Herr Lucassen at all still come?
Or has he received from you a ban from the hall?
To the dear Union which here is silently suspect. You at the time had correctly recognized this. 500 questions were fired broadside at Scholz and Habeck.
Clara
Bünger (Linke): 551!
Yet what then happened? Scarcely had the powder smoke blown away, and one sailed with the SPD into the coalition harbor and once again fraternally divvied up the tax money. Bravo! That, I name betrayal of truthfulness and a willingness to explain – actually, ur-conservative values.
Helge
Limburg (Greens): Your speech is an insult to every true conservative!
The voters meanwhile precisely know: It is still found at the CDU/CSU at most with a microscope. At least vote for our motion now! Unless of course you want the hanky-panky to continue, which in the end – this, you precisely know – will be directed against you. Still, it is perhaps not too late.
Because the same was again intended, we wanted to prevent droll democracy workshops and youth formation – which for the AfD ultimately have something against an authentic, free democracy.
Clara
Bünger (Linke): Yet you too want public funds!
We ever again vehemently demand a Bürger society without GEZ broadcasting, leftist spying, or fear in the workplaces; further, direct democracy and the direct election of high state officials. Your mudslinging at this impeccable stance meanwhile falls back on you. The citizens are not so blind and immature as you would gladly have them. I am thus really excited – from you, the Linke, I know it – by what next from the Union here will be led into the field.
What is, for example, with an authentic condition of democracy, the recognition of the Basic Law by means of diverse Antifa projects? Does that perhaps come sometime, or would that still be too much spotlight on networks shy of the light, which reach deep into hardened anti-semitism?
Helge Limburg (Greens): “Light-shy networks”, “anti-semitism”. All precisely your themes!
Katrin Fey
(Linke): Anti-semitism comes from the right!
Or perhaps again comes punctually at the State legislative elections anti-right advertising via the Federal websites, as 14 days before the Bundestag election at the Federal Family Ministry?
Helge
Limburg (Greens): How many of your communications politicians are actually active in terrorist associations? Tell
us that for once! How many of your members were investigated on account of accepting foreign money? How many
of the AfD’s Bundestag offices have
actually been already searched?
May perhaps the BUND, promoted with millions, be called upon, besides climate propaganda, to protest against everything right of center?
For you, is it okay that HateAid and the Amadeu Antonio Foundation agitate against everything conservative,
Katrin Fey
(Linke): That’s not right! You’re not conservative!
and still laugh yourselves sick that BlackRock Man Merz, with bended knee, empowers you with the purse? Apparently, the answer is “ja”.
Since: Where is the moratorium, the draining of the swamp by means of a guidelines competence? It will not come, since then the therein ailing SPD would immediately be at the battlements. When already the wicked right citizens push old auntie in the direction of single digits,
Clara
Bünger (Linke): That is beloved democracy! And you want to exterminate it!
then the preparation still needs be a bit further cultivated out of sozi-green student teachers and violent Antifas. Clearly, that might run under an orderly retreat. And, here and there, you could still do it,
Maja
Wallstein (SPD): We are not like you, Herr Peterka! We are not like you!
as it was at peak woke, thus total air supremacy of the leftist dementia, like before Corona. Yet you know quite precisely: This time is past, and will with luck never come again.
Thus: Let us wind up this swamp! Since in one thing even your troops are right: From history, one must learn.
President
Julia Klöckner: Your speaking time is exceeded, and therefore your speech is to end.
Let’s tackle it so that a self-service in our country can never again occur.
Many thanks.
