Do you know them too? The casual right-wingers, who, over coffee and cake, like to begin their sentences with, “ I don’t have anything against them, but…” MEINUNGSAUSTAUSCH tracks prejudices and how they are spread, broken down and ultimately maintained ad absurdum.

Without pressure, nothing seems to happen. But if the pressure increases, there is stress. A ludicrous and highly stylised panopticon that assures us, with a wink of the eye, that we are a product of our own stress.
