WORLD WORLDWIDE EUROPE GERMANY - news journal UPDATE - (en) Germany, Karlsruhe, ANIKA: Participation in the demonstration against municipal austerity measures on December 6, 2025 in Karlsruhe (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

 On Saturday, December 6, 2025, we participated in the demonstration of

the Alliance for a Solidarity City in Karlsruhe. ---- With around 700
participants, the demonstration, which brought clear criticism of the
planned austerity measures of the city of Karlsruhe to the streets,
marched once through the city center. ---- In a leaflet, we also spread
our criticism, which we see in the short term as a lack of
implementation of redistribution mechanisms and in the long term as a
societal structure that is primarily oriented towards profit and
economic interests instead of the needs of a solidarity-based society.

In the short term, we have no choice but to demand redistribution
measures. This is primarily about who is perceived as part of society,
who benefits, and about imposing limits on a seemingly boundless
structure of exploitation. These measures directly help those most
affected by poverty and economic disadvantage.

But the redistribution mechanisms are nothing more than treating the
symptoms.

For a societal perspective, we need a fundamental, indeed radical,
structural change.

We need a structure in which most people don't have to devote their
entire lives to paid work, leaving them with no time for living. We need
a structure in which families have equal prospects for life and where
the alternative to traditional gender roles doesn't mean maximum
exploitation.

We need a social structure that is not oriented towards the profit of
individuals, but towards the participation and enjoyment of life for all.

Today we call upon those in positions of responsibility and authority in
politics and society to use all their means to act in the spirit of a
community based on solidarity.

We as a society must shape the larger transformation ourselves!
