AfD demands: Gender language in Jena should be abolished!

jena. AfD urges clear language regulations in the city administration

The political landscape in Jena is mixed up again! The AfD parliamentary group plans to divide vigorously with a explosive application at the upcoming city council meeting. The core of the concern? The city administration should finally refrain from the controversial gender language. Instead, the AfD demands that communication - both internally and externally - is strictly based on the traditional guidelines of German spelling and leaves all “imaginative pronouns” and special characters behind.

a clear appeal by Denny Jankowski

parliamentary group leader Denny Jankowski leaves no doubt about his opinion: "The use of some fantasy pronouns, special characters in word -related or art breaks in order to achieve an alleged gender -sensitive language is rejected by a large part of the population." Jankowski reaches for clear words and describes the current developments in urban communication as "defaces" of the German language. He emphasizes that the citizens of Jena have the right to understandable and readable information from their city administration. This illustrates the implications of the political debate that goes beyond language and identity.

In these charged times it becomes clear that language is not only a means of communication, but also represents an instrument of power that is all the more attention in the urban discussions of Jena. The city council's decision is eagerly awaited - will the AfD be able to enforce its project or does the voice of the supporters of the gender language count? One thing is certain: Jena remains the focus of the linguistic arguments!
