LARGE DEMO KIEL

28 September 2024
4 pm - Exerzierplatzplatz
(Meeting from 3 pm)

Why 2.0? Was there already 1.0?

We took to the streets for the first time on 4 November 2023 with the title ‘The Great Mutiny’. November is a month steeped in history… not only because the inner-German wall fell in November 1989. Kiel also made history in November. Because the November Revolution in 1918 started in Kiel. We took this as an opportunity to set an example once again in a November! According to press releases, 1,500 people took to the streets.

Unfortunately, politics has not changed since November 2023. On the contrary, it feels like everything is getting worse and worse. We have never had a federal government that has run our country into the ground in such a short time as the traffic light coalition. And we have never had a federal government that has so ignorantly and ruthlessly disregarded the will of the people.

This year we are already mutinying on 28 September, full of hope that it won’t be quite as cold as last time.

Come to Kiel, everyone!

He who has, has… Come with a yellow waistcoat and lights!
Let’s bathe Kiel’s streets in a bright yellow colour!

Make our protest visible !!! Together we are strong – with each other and for each other.

What was going on in 1918?

In 1918, the sailors mutinied. The war was lost and they did not want to be sent into a hopeless last stand for the sake of honour. Soldiers and workers then joined the protest. The Kiel sailors’ uprising continued throughout the country at the beginning of November 1918 and led, among other things, to the end of the monarchy. It is important to us to show that the courage of a handful of people can be worthwhile in order to achieve great things.

Last year, Thorben’s Nordreport recorded the events of 1918 (historically simplified) for you in a video. Of course, the date announced there does not apply this year and we have also adjusted the demands again.

And 2024?

Today, we support wars worldwide by supplying weapons. According to Federal Defence Minister Pistorius, we are also to be educated to be ‘fit for war’. That forebodes evil. We won’t go along with that.

We are walking – this year in September – some of the same routes as the sailors in 1918, stopping for rallies and actions at points that already existed back then.

We are adapting the 14 demands of the sailors, soldiers and workers of that time to the current situation.

This demo is going to be something big! The current policy must come to an end!

That is why we are taking to the streets as non-partisan people. We are making it known that a limit has been reached. We will not put up with everything!

Peacefully, with each other and for each other! – May Kiel once again provide a great impetus!

14 Demands

1.

Stop arms deliveries to war zones. A foreign policy of reconciliation and diplomacy

2.

End the indoctrination of society to build up ‘war readiness’.

3.

An end to the persecution of dissenters.

4.

Less tax money for armaments, more for schools, daycare centres, pensioners and health.

5.

The press and media are asked to do their job. They should free themselves from political influence.

6.

An end to the monitoring of opinions and the promotion of denunciation.

7.

The interests of SMEs and farmers must be protected. No ideological economic policy. Preservation of jobs.

8.

Skilled labour yes, migration into our social system no.

9.

Immediate end to the weakening and undermining of the articles of our Basic Law. No restriction of fundamental and human rights.

10.

Final end to the coronavirus restrictions and complete reappraisal of the coronavirus period.

11.

Our healthcare system must not be controlled by the WHO. It is imperative that politicians decide against the pandemic treaty and international health regulations, if necessary by withdrawing from the WHO.

12.

Promotion of local doctors and no state-prescribed medicine over the heads of the medical profession.

13.

The takeover of critical infrastructure by hedge funds and other investors is to be stopped.

14.

Abolition of the immunity of politicians and referendums at all political levels.

Who are the Kiel Yellow Vests?

We are just ordinary citizens. We are not a party, an organisation or a club.

We demonstrate with and for each other independently of parties and in no way want to abolish democracy. But we expect the federal government to do a good job.

We call on the federal government to live up to its mandate given by the citizens and not to act against the voters of this country!
