Critics argue his exclusion, if that is what happened, had less to do with his claimed political neutrality being read as too left-leaning, and more with his clear anti-fascist stance. Commenters lament the state of German political culture, asking how low public discourse has sunk.
Why now: People are reacting to the suggestion that Kerkeling was sidelined over his anti-fascism in a climate of CDU/CSU dominance.
