right -wing extremism in focus
The increase in anti -Semitism and the right -wing extremist currents confirms the oppressive development in the country. In the 2025 federal election, the AfD in Bautzen achieved an impressive 48.3 percent of the votes, which caused many critical voices from society. Kieschnick often feels alone in the fight against these ideologies and reports on anonymous threatening letters that she receives regularly. However, these attacks on themselves are not the only challenges with which committed citizens are faced.
