At a conference of the Academy for Political Education about the right-wing fringe of politics, one person in particular took center stage. Scientists attested that he spoke “like the old Bavarian popular speakers” and was thus moving in the tradition of “populist radicalism” that went back a long way in Bavaria. The man, according to the scientific conclusion, was “a direct product of Bavarian politics.” Anyone who now believes that this direct product of Bavarian politics could actually only be Hubert Aiwanger and is wondering why this conference was not covered at all in the media is wrong. Because the conference took place almost 35 years ago and the man it was about back then was Franz Schönhuber.
