Christine Prayon on Satire, Corona, and the Ukraine War

„I have become increasingly uncomfortable with the way the major socially defining issues have been handled since Corona. I've also talked to the people in charge there and emphasized that I don't want to participate in exposing dissenters to ridicule. Satire must not participate in narrowing the discourse. And now this is exactly what is happening again with the war in Ukraine. Narratives and positions of groups that are high up in the social hierarchy are being repeated incessantly, and at the same time the mood is being set against those who think differently. In my opinion, this no longer has anything to do with satire.“
