"You are Germany" - how a campaign of the german government failed
xxx | 20.01.2006 00:59
"`cause you are Germany" - a similar slogan was used in the 3rd Reich...
"I am not Germany"
"Are you Adolf Eichmann?"
"...Germany out of your heads!"
"This is Germany"
"Diss Germany!"
"He is Germany!"
In times of mass unemployment and biggest social cuts ever the german government and media started a big campaign: "You are Germany" - which obviously aimes to make the people identify themselves with the state. "You are Germany" wants to create a feeling of belonging together. This campaign is made to create a new, smooth kind of patriotism.
But the german radical left has managed to turn the campaign against those who created it....
activists of the counter campaign discovered that a similar slogan (´cause you are Germany) was used by the fascists during the 3rd Reich - see first pic
this led to an outcry in german public
the other pics show some of the posters and slogans of the counter campaign...
