Kretschmann’s Facebook page closed after attacks

StuttgartAfter a massive attack by “corona rebels and conspiracy ideologists” “on the Facebook page of Baden-Württemberg’s Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann (Greens), the State Ministry temporarily removed the page. The page is after the politician’s latest podcast was released on Friday evening The State Department’s press office said it had been attacked continuously.

“Every second, users posted numerous false statements, conspiracy stories, threats, insults and other criminally relevant content,” said the State Ministry. In total, well over 4000 comments were received in 20 hours. None of the interferers was interested in a factual discussion. Rather, they would have massively attacked other users. That is why the press office decided on Saturday with a heavy heart to temporarily take the Facebook page off the Internet. Normal operation of the site was no longer possible.

Kretschmann had a podcast for this on YouTube on Friday excused that despite the corona regulations at Berlin Tegel Airport, he had not worn a face mask for a short time. He also said: “We have been fighting with Corona for many months. And it’s not over yet. In some comments on my Facebook page it sounds different. Some fellow citizens there say that the pandemic is now largely over and that protective measures no longer have to be taken so seriously. I can honestly tell you: comments like that really worry me. ”
