Politician Koçak causes excitement: rap-verse with violent criticism!

Berlin, Deutschland - Ferat Ali Koçak, a 46-year-old member of the Bundestag of the Left Party, is currently causing a stir. In a video he raps a song by the rapper Daubflex with the title "Red" in front of the Reichstag building. In this provocative song, there are controversial lines that say, among other things: "Every bull pig is a miscarriage" and calls up to support Congo, Kurdistan and Gaza. A particularly critical line is "Kurdistan Her Biji Hau den Nazi". Such statements provide the reason for violent discussions about political responsibility and public perception of MPs in Germany, as our-mitteleuropa.com reports.

A commentator emphasizes that Koçak's presence in the Bundestag costs the German taxpayer a month, which adds over half a million euros annually. It is also noteworthy that Koçak previously sat in the Presidium of the Berlin House of Representatives, where the CDU apparently had no problem with its choice, while candidates of the AfD were considered unacceptable.

biographical background and political focus

Ferat Ali Koçak was born in Berlin in 1979. He graduated from Hermann Hesse Gymnasium in 1998 and in 2007 gained a diploma in economics at the Free University of Berlin. Between 2008 and 2012, Koçak worked for the Allianz consulting and sales AG, where he initially worked as a project manager and manager. After a short independence between 2012 and 2014, he worked as a marketing director at the Berlin International University of Applied Sciences until 2019. Koçak has been a member of the Left Party since 2016 and has set political focus such as anti-fascism, anti-racism, climate justice and human rights, such as the Bundesag.de

Since November 4, 2021, he has been a member of the Berlin House of Representatives and actively brings himself into the committees for internal, security and order as well as environmental and climate protection. He is also a deputy member of the committee for the protection of the constitution and spokesman for the left faction for climate policy and escape policy.

anti -fascism in the political context

The discussion about Koçak's statements illuminates historical sensitivity in Germany with regard to the topic of anti -fascism. This played a central role in the GDR, both in the interior and foreign policy. After 1989/90, social perception and political discourse on anti -fascism changed. While the cold war was in full swing, anti -fascist campaigns were used in the GDR to isolate the Federal Republic and legitimize its own system, such as the bpb.de . In today's political landscape, anti -fascism remains a strategic means that is used powerfully by various political actors.

The renewed examination of anti -fascism contributes to the debate about political ideologies and their abuse in the past and present. It can be seen that both use and rejection of anti -fascism as a keyword in political struggle continues to have an explosive effect on responsibility, identity and social integration.
