The latest action by Sports Minister Werner Kogler and Health Minister Johannes Rauch is a use of the social media toilet. “Krone” Viennese boss Michael Pommer on the Greens’ own goal and why we Austrians are not your “football mice”.
When I was little and had my whole life ahead of me, instead of celebrating the pinnacle of my personal age pyramid as I do now, my mother forbade me to watch the animated series “The Barbapapas” on television. The format was pure childish stupidity, she said. A happy family, that alone is a utopia, and one that can turn into anything. In tents, guitars, lanterns, shells – or in chairs. What an absurdity, even chairs don’t want to be chairs if people keep hitting them in the face. And so instead of seeing Barbabapo turned into a tree, I had to go to the park with my mother to see the real one.
If I were a kid today, I’m sure my mother would stop me and say, “Look at the Barbapa Pass, be one for all I care, but the Green Party’s social media is banned!”
