This leaves us speechless: in the socialist city of Vienna, open hatred of Jews is even subsidised with taxpayers’ money! The regular techno party series ‘hypertrash’ emphasised in an Instagram post that Zionists are not allowed to attend. A curious fact: the event is officially funded by the municipality.
This is now causing outrage: in an Instagram post, the organisers of the ‘hypertrash’ party series explicitly wrote that Zionists and FPÖ voters are not allowed to attend their parties: ‘We are trying to create safer spaces for queer and marginalised people. This actively excludes right-wing extremists, including all FPÖ/AfD voters, and Zionists.’
The highly controversial post has since been deleted. No wonder, the organisers are blatantly displaying anti-Semitism by discriminating against Zionists. The term refers to people, usually of Jewish faith, who are in favour of the state of Israel. An interesting fact: the event is subsidised by the Municipality of Vienna.
And FPÖ voters are also unlikely to be pleased that they are paying tax money for an event that they are not even allowed to attend.
The event series refers to itself as ‘queer, loud and annoying’ and explicitly positions itself as ‘left-wing, queer, feminist and anti-imperialist’.
Exxpress asked the City of Vienna how much tax money went to the left-wing party activists and why the city is funding an anti-Jewish event – an answer is still pending.
The event is advertised in a trailer. The symbol of the City of Vienna is clearly visible on the bottom right.
Following massive criticism, ‘hypertrash’ has since issued a retraction: ‘We speak out against extremist Zionism as it has been practised for decades and is currently being practised by the right-wing government of Israel. We oppose all colonial offensives, whether they come from Europe, the US or, in this case, Israel.’
The originally advertised party has since been postponed – in addition, ‘hypertrash’ is planning a debate event in the new year on ‘various topics such as anti-Semitism, extremism, neo-colonialism, safer spaces and cancelling.’
The cancellation post also states: ‘We position ourselves clearly and unambiguously against all forms of extremism and discrimination. We remain listeners and are open to dialogue.’ An apology however sounds quite different …
