Thuringian Prime Minister exhibits unloyal and cowardly behavior, as he pays a visit to Weidel
In a series of recent statements, Thuringia's Minister President, Mario Voigt (CDU), has expressed concern over the impact of social media on children and young people, citing depictions of violence and pornography as a major issue. Voigt has also criticized the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, accusing them of lacking patriotism and having no plan for Germany.
Voigt's criticism was not limited to the AfD, as he also called for an age limit on social media use, suggesting that children and young people should only be allowed to use it from the age of 16. This call comes after a study revealing that one in four children suffers from anxiety related to social media.
Thuringia, with its rich cultural heritage, boasts the highest density of cultural and UNESCO World Heritage sites in Europe. It also has one of the highest densities of honorary titles. However, Voigt has criticized the AfD for failing to acknowledge these positive aspects of Germany.
The tensions between Voigt and the AfD have been ongoing, with Voigt participating in a TV duel with Björn Höcke, an AfD representative. Recently, a disruption occurred during an ARD interview with Alice Weidel, the AfD's federal leader. Weidel, in the interview, couldn't think of three things going well in Germany. The disruption was significant and caused through loudspeakers, leading to a disturbance.
Voigt argued that the disruption during Weidel's interview was rather an image gain for the AfD, highlighting the party's tendency to create chaos and disruption. He also criticized Weidel for not mentioning the positive aspects of Germany, such as its status as the innovation engine of Europe, recording the most patent applications in Europe.
Despite the ongoing political tensions, Voigt remains optimistic about Germany's future. He praised the resilience of German workers, expressing pride in the country's achievements. Voigt's calls for changes, including an age limit on social media use and a focus on Germany's positive aspects, are aimed at shaping a better future for the country and its citizens.
