At Western German Broadcasting (WDR), they have now reached the next stage of left-wing madness, in which multiculturalism, climate concerns and heat-related hysteria are simply conflated. On Thursday, the WDR ‘Cosmo’ radio programme – which is due to be taken off air shortly – posted on Instagram: ‘Put some clothes on!’ – specifically, Islamic garments as protection against the heat. Instead of walking around in skirts and breezy tops, people are told they should cover up. This is illustrated, amongst other things, with clothing from Pakistan, India, Somalia and Saudi Arabia. The long ‘djellaba’ robe is particularly touted.
No mention was made of the fact that this, alongside the niqab and burqa, is one of the ‘cloth prisons’ into which Muslim women are often forced. Nor was there any mention of the fact that it is by no means advisable to squeeze oneself into such a hideous garment in extreme heat – or at all. For headwear, Cosmo recommends either a Mexican sombrero, a Vietnamese conical hat or the ‘kufiya’, which enjoys great popularity amongst left-wing anti-Semites. Just last month, ‘Cosmo’ called on women to buy ‘modest’ or ‘covering’ fashion – in effect, to dress as closely as possible in accordance with Sharia law.
Apparently, people still don’t consider the urban landscape in Germany to be sufficiently influenced by Islam. Those forced to pay the licence fee have to foot the bill for this nonsense too. WDR, Radio Bremen and RBB pump almost one million euros a year into producing this type of programme. However, an end is in sight. The Reform State Treaty is forcing the public broadcaster ARD to cut back on its radio programmes. As a result, WDR has decided to integrate the ‘Cosmo’ editorial team for ‘diversity, society and pop culture’ into the editorial team of the youth station ‘1LIVE’ and to launch a new programme called ‘1LIVE Street’. This would spell the end for ‘Cosmo’ by April 2027.
