Fatty Franz Of cause Germany was influenced by the French Revolution. There was much sympathy until the big bloodshed came. Friedrich Schiller for example.
@@montifexmaximus459 Montifex, don't forget, Napoleon overran Germany and most of Europe and imposed his political agenda and his rules and he was ruthlessly against the nobility and clergy, and guilloteen was French instrument - this is so thoroughly Napoleonic French. Most Germans and most Europeans and England too, fought against Napoleon. When a conquering villains overrun the country, they impose their rules and propagate their propaganda. It is not necessarily influence or acceptance, more of like they're subjected to it.
That is the song of the free liberals in Germany from the tradition of the March 1848 Revolution in the tradition of Friedrich Hecker. Friedrich Karl Franz Hecker (born September 28, 1811 in Eichtersheim, Grand Duchy of Baden; † March 24, 1881 in Summerfield, Illinois, USA) was a German-American lawyer, politician and radical democratic revolutionary who was involved in the initial phase of the Baden and German revolutions of 1848 / 49 played a central role until April / May 1848. In Baden he was one of the most popular speakers and agitators of the revolution at this time. After the defeat of the uprising named after him, he emigrated to the USA. There he fought during the Civil War (1861-1865) as an officer in a German volunteer regiment in the army of the northern states.

We Japanese wish for Germany and Germans happiness.Thank you for the great video. God bless Germany and Germans. I hope for the further development of the friendship between Japan and Germany. Japan won the battle with Germany in the 1914 Battle of Qingdao, and many German prisoners of war were brought to Japan.It is a story in The Bando POW camp.Toyohisa Matsue was chosen as the chief of the Bando Camp.Matsue was a soldier of the Japanese Army. He ordered his men not to treat German POW absolutely like a criminal.He ordered his men to treat the German POWs with kindness.Japan did not want a war with Germany. At that time, Britain and Japan were allies. There was a request from the United Kingdom, and it became a battle with Germany.There were about 1000 German prisoners of war who came to the Bando camp.At this time, the Japanese government decided to introduce German technology to Japan from Germans. Japan ordered each camp to receive guidance from German soldiers in all areas.There were leaders in each of the German prisoners of war, such as politics, economics, teaching of musical instruments, bread making, sausages, whiskeys, beer brewing, etc.The Japanese received instruction from them. Germans taught Japanese people how to grow vegetables that were not grown before at the farm.Among the camps were exercise facilities, a bread factory, a beer factory, a dairy farm and farms.It is more correct to say that it is a German village than a camp. Japan treated Germans as friends.Japan permitted POWs to do sports, cultural activities and arts.The POWs made crafts and pictures. They introduced good European crafts to Japan.A music group formed by German POWs played the first Ludwig van Beethoven symphony No. 9 in Japan.Germans were paid a salary. Salaries were also paid when Germans worked nearby.The Japanese provided goods, money, etc. so that Germans would not be troubled in their lives.There were many exercise facilities in the camp. The sports team formed by the prisoners of war played technical training on soccer in Japan by playing against the Japanese team.At the Narashino camp, excursions to sightseeing spots were often conducted to have Germans enjoy it.There was a restaurant in Bando Camp. There was also a Japanese-owned store. They were free to shop.There were also merchants coming and going to the camp, where they could buy alcohol, daily necessities and sweets.When the German defeat was decided, the Germans were no longer prisoners of war, and their outings were totally free. At the last farewell, the townspeople saw off the marching Germans.Many Germans remained in Japan. They set up a company in Japan and married a Japanese. We Japanese sent 9,000 cherry blossom trees to Germany in 1990. It is said that the money of this cherry blossom trees is gathered by the donation of the Japanese and bought a cherry blossom trees . Almost all Japanese people participated in donations. The Japanese always cooperate with Germany.This cherry blossom tree is still in Berlin. This is a story that Japanese people helped Germans in japanese Okinawa Miyakojima, Japan. In 1873, the German Merchant shipRobertoson was hit by a typhoon.The ship was aground off Miyakojima Miyakokuni. At that time, the islander rescues the crew.They gave some food to the Germans.They gave Germans a place to sleep. The days were 34 days.And the islanders put a lot of food and water on the ship and sent the Germans to Germany safely.There are still monuments sent from Germany in Okinawa.
@Schmusekatze42 Thank you. God bless you and the German people.Japan's national anthem Kimigayo was made by Hayashi Hiromori and German Franz Eckert.Japan made the constitution, medicine, the army in by reference to Germany during the Meiji era. Japan succeeded in modernizing thanks to Germany. Japan learned a lot from Germany.There are two Germans statues at the University of Tokyo in Japan.
@marcel pero Thank you. God bless you and the people of your country.It is a story in the Bando camp.About 100 years ago, there were many German prisoners of war in Japan.Japan did not treat German POWs awfully. The Japanese treated German POWs as friends. Japan respected German POW freedom. Germans were respected in Japan. They spread German culture and history, beer and sausages, Bam Kuuchen etc to Japan. The German bridge created by German prisoners of war is still well preserved in Japan.Japan did not want a war with Germany. At that time, Britain and Japan were allies. There was a request from the United Kingdom, and it became a battle with Germany. Japan allowed German POWs to do sports and cultural activities.Exchanges between villagers and Germans were also popular. It is more correct to say that the camp where the Germans were located is a German village than a camp. When the Germans returned home, Japanese and Germans grieved for goodbye.
Ahhhh arigatou gozaimasu for sharing those stories with us! So precious :). WE LOVE YOU TOO, JAPAN! I've been to Nihon by myself, had a lovely hostfamily there with which I still have contact! (I've been on Shikoku) We - Japanese and Germans - are Nakamas or more likely Tomodachi!

I’m American (my family came from one of the oldest houses of brandenburg, so German sort-of) and I swear I heard an American child’s song with this melody.
Well, at least Friedrich Hecker and some of his people emigrated to the USA after the revolution failed. He then fought there in the civil war for the northern states. Maybe that's how the song got to the US.
Well, a lot of german settlers in the US are called 48ers. they are mostly emmigrated from south west german, also known as Baden. baden was very liberal. and when in 48 the Paulskirche and the hecker Aufstand failed. They moved to the liberal west in the US. hecker btw was a commander of a whole german regiment or battalion if i remember correctly. many of his men where former revolutionarys in the hecker aufstand earlier with him. Note, Hecker immigrated to the US in 48, and in 49 when the Badische Revolution occured he traveled back to germany, but arrived to late. he arrived like 5 days after the Soldiers in Rastatt capitulated.
Here's a Spanish translation I've just done: Cuando la gente te pregunta "¿Sigue vivo el Hecker?" Puedes decirles, "Sí sigue vivo él" "Él no cuelga de ningún árbol" "Y él no cuelga por ninguna cuerda" Pero él aferra a su sueño De la república libre Por las tripas de los predicadores Cuelgan los nobles "Déjale colgar libremente, cuelgale bien y en fin!" Sí, por esa mierda aguantamos 33 años No somos esclavos Todos somos libres Engrasa a la guillotina Con grasa de tiranos! Saca la concubina De la cama del sacerdote!

Beispielsweise (Geld)Adeligen, Antidemokraten (links u. rechts außen) oder realitätsfremden "Gutmenschen"... ist mir auch unbegreiflich. Im historischen Kontext ein sehr wichtiges und schönes Lied. Liebe Grüße
In diesem Lied da steckt viel Geschichte hinter, da ich aber 86 im Osten Deutschlands geboren bin und ca 91 rüber und die Schule mir diesen Teil der Geschichte nie lehrte (Preußen, Friedrich der große usw & uvm.🤣) Sondern nur ca 1925 - 1945 und das in Dauerschleife + tatsächlich nur ein wenig Kalter Krieg, habe ich eine gewisse Haltung zu dem Land gehabt und habe das Thema abgehakt. Doch seit geraumer Zeit hole ich ein wenig Geschichte auf, seit 2001🤦 fing das an, nun bin ich heute das erstmal auf dieses Lied gestoßen Heckerlied, genauso wie Fridericus Rex und musste ein wenig schmunzeln. 1. Ich liebe ja diese deutsche Sprache also diese Art auch Goethe usw, auch wenn ich sie selbst nicht so gut beherrsche😅 und ich habe das Gefühl das dieses Lied "Heckerlied", heute bei einer Demo mit sagen wir 500.000 Leute, als eventuell gefährlich eingestuft werden könnte🤣😅 2.Stell dir vor so was würdest du heute bei tiktok oder so veröffentlichen 🤯. Wobei dieses Feeling also ich meine das Thema Unterdrückung/Freiheit/ heute Kapitalismus im amerikanischen Stil usw, was solch Musik mit Text ausmacht ist unglaublich❤️. Das wäre Zensur pur. Ich meine es gibt ihn heute auch noch den Gedanken der Revolution, aber das Feeling heute ist irgendwie anders und wird wahrscheinlich oftmals als rechts abgetan. Man muss das wahrscheinlich unterscheiden weil es gibt Menschen die stehen vermeidlich für Freiheit aber laufen mit /wählen die Fürsten, meist als liberal bezeichnet🤣 und es gibt Menschen die auf diese zeigen und sagen " ihr seid doch die blöden und läuft mit denen aber schreit nach Freiheit" Aktueller könnten diese beiden letzten Zeilen nicht sein, nun die Unterscheidung.Die die mit dem Finger auf die blöden zeigen, da gibt es Leute wie mich, die sagen dieser Turbo Kapitalismus gehört verändert uvm. und Leute die das wahrscheinlich auch so sehen aber eine tatsächliche, sagen wir eine anti-andere-menschen Besinnung haben, diese beiden werden als rechts abgetan, die letzteren zur Recht. Immer wenn ich sage das der aktuelle Kapitalismus keine Freiheit ist und du dich als Mensch sicherlich nicht Frei entfalten kannst, zumindest wenn es von Beginn an, an Geld fehlt und du mit schulden startest. Ja, dann kommt die Schublade Karl Marx und wenn ich sage, du verstehst nur zu deinem Vorteil Marx und lässt andere Aspekte aus, ja dann kann man nur noch Rechts sein. Das Thema Marx kam mal auf beim Thema "was für Wirtschaftssysteme gab es in der Geschichte so?" Aber hier dachte ich irgendwas stimmt doch nicht, alles was so nach der Fed kam + Mauerfall, das kann doch nicht im Sinne von Freiheit sein, versteht ihr? Und wenn man diese Art von Freiheit infrage stellt, war ich schnell abgestempelt aber jetzt, jetzt wo ich dieses Lied eben gehört habe, bestärkt es mein Gefühl das ich sehr wahrscheinlich richtig liege. Ich meine es läuft mir heute noch eiskalt den Rücken runter als Buschi so was sagte wie " Wer nicht mit uns gegen den Terrorismus kämpft, der ist ein Terrorist". So kam es zumindest damals rüber. Ich bin gespannt wo es mit Deutschland ab 2025 hingeht. Wenn der Ami jetzt in Großbritannien Atomwaffen stationieren mag und Trump kommt. Im dem Sinne, hoch lebe die Revolution ✌️❤️

Education and politics Born at Eichtersheim (now Angelbachtal in Baden-Württemberg), the son of a revenue official, he studied law at the University of Heidelberg with the intention of becoming a lawyer. In Heidelberg he became a member of the Corps Rhenania. In 1838, he was an advocate before the Supreme Court in Mannheim.[1] He abandoned the legal profession on being elected to the Second Chamber of Baden in 1842, and at once began to take part in the opposition against the government, which assumed a more and more openly radical character. His talents as an agitator and his personal charm won him wide popularity and influence. His influence helped to oust the Blittersdorf ministry from office.[1] In early 1845 the political issue of the incorporation of Schleswig and Holstein with Denmark arose in the public eye, with a particular interest to democratically minded politicians who favored unity of all the German states as a core of their programme. On February 6 he gave a speech opposing this annexation in the Baden Second Chamber, which gave him much notoriety outside Baden. On March 9 his friend and liberal compatriot Adolf Sander died suddenly of a lung disease, marking the beginning an ever increasing tone of bitterness by Hecker toward the government. Later that year he and Johann Adam von Itzstein conducted a campaign of democracy, one result of which was his expulsion from Prussia on the occasion of a journey to Stettin, which had the effect of adding to his popularity. During this time, even before the outbreak of the revolution, he also began to lean towards socialism.[2][3] 1848-49 revolutions Ambox scales.svg This section has been nominated to be checked for its neutrality. Discussion of this nomination can be found on the talk page. (February 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) Glorification of Friedrich Hecker In 1847 he was temporarily occupied with ideas of emigration, and with this object made a journey to Algiers, but returned to Baden and resumed his former position as the radical champion of popular rights, later becoming president of the Volksverein, where he was destined to fall still further under the influence of the agitator Gustav von Struve. In conjunction with Struve he drew up the radical programme carried at the great Liberal meeting held at Offenburg on September 12, 1847 (entitled Thirteen Claims put forward by the People of Baden). In addition to the Offenburg programme, the Sturm petition of March 1, 1848, attempted to extort from the government the most far-reaching concessions. But it was in vain that on becoming a deputy Hecker endeavoured to carry out its impracticable provisions. He had to yield to the more moderate majority, but on this account was driven still further towards the Left. The proof lies in the new Offenburg demands of March 19, and in the resolution moved by Hecker in the preliminary Frankfurt Parliament that Germany should be declared a republic. But neither in Baden nor Frankfurt did he at any time gain his point.[3] Friedrich Hecker leaving Germany at Strassburg This double failure, combined with various energetic measures of the government, which were indirectly aimed at him (e.g. the arrest of the editor of the Constanzer Seeblatt, a friend of Hecker's, in Karlsruhe station on April 8), inspired Hecker with the idea of an armed rising under pretext of the foundation of the German republic. The 9th to 11 April were secretly spent in preliminaries of what would be known as the Hecker Uprising. On April 12, Hecker and Struve sent a proclamation to the inhabitants of the Seekreis and of the Black Forest to summon the people who could bear arms to Donaueschingen at mid-day on the 14th, with arms, ammunition and provisions for six days. They expected 70,000 men, but only a few thousand appeared.[3] The grand-ducal government of the Seekreis was dissolved, and Hecker gradually gained reinforcements. But friendly advisers also joined him, pointing out the risks of his undertaking. Hecker, however, was not at all ready to listen to them. On the contrary, he added to violence an absurd defiance, and offered an amnesty to the German princes on condition of their retiring within fourteen days into private life. The troops of Baden and Hesse marched against him, under the command of General Friedrich von Gagern, and on April 20 they met near Kandern, where, although Gagern was killed, Hecker was completely defeated.[3] He fled into the Canton of Basel, where he published a radical newspaper, and wrote his work Die Volkserhebung in Baden (“The popular uprising in Baden”). Although he was again elected to the chamber of Baden, the government, no longer willing to respect his immunity as a deputy, refused its ratification. On being refused admission to the Frankfort Parliament, though twice elected to represent Thiengen, Hecker resolved in September 1848 to emigrate to North America like many other “Forty-Eighters,” and bought a farm near Belleville, Illinois.[1] American experience and the Civil War Colonel Hecker during the American Civil War. After moving to the United States, Hecker always maintained an acute interest in events in Germany. In the spring of 1849, the Baden revolution re-ignited, and Hecker returned to Europe to participate. However, he only made it as far as Strassburg when word came that the insurrection had been defeated by Prussian troops and he returned to Illinois.[3] In 1851 he wrote a foreword to the German translation of Thomas Paine's The Rights of Man which was published in Leipzig in 1851.[citation needed] However, like most Forty-Eighters, his attention became increasingly focused on domestic political issues in the United States, and in particular the issue of abolishing slavery.[4] When the Illinois Republican Party was organized at a convention in 1856, German-American Forty-Eighters were everywhere conspicuous in the proceedings; Hecker and Abraham Lincoln were selected to be the two electors-at-large if John Frémont were to win the state (which he did not).[5] The Republicans attracted a wide array of political perspectives, with often strongly divergent views except for their opposition to slavery, and the interests of the immigrant Forty-Eighters was in conflict with the nativist Know Nothings. The influence of Hecker and the other German-American leaders was critical in keeping the party unified in regard to its most important principles.[6] After the Battle of Fort Sumter, Lincoln called for 75,000 volunteers from among the state militia. The Illinois allotment of 6,000 volunteers was exceeded in five days. By June, ten regiments had been accepted, one of which was the 24th Illinois Infantry Regiment, commanded by now Colonel Hecker. The 24th Illinois was the first unit mobilized from Chicago, and was made up of German, Hungarian, Czech and Slovak immigrants, mostly Forty-Eighters. In the early days of the war, the 24th Illinois primarily was assigned to garrison and other rear echelon duties in the western theaters. Under the conditions of dreary guard duty, and not being professional soldiers, morale and discipline faltered, and Hecker resigned his command on December 23, 1861.[7] The 24th continued on, still under the informal name of "Hecker's Old Regiment," and saw action throughout the western theater, including at Chickamauga. In October 1862, he became colonel of the 82nd Illinois Infantry Regiment. Approximately two-thirds of its members were German immigrants and most of the other third was composed of immigrants from various countries. Company C was entirely made up of European Jews, and Company I was all Scandinavians. The unit served in the eastern campaigns, and Hecker was badly wounded at Chancellorsville on May 2, 1863. After recovering from his wounds, he later served at the Battle of Missionary Ridge and in the capturing of Chattanooga and Knoxville. Hecker resigned this command on March 21, 1864, but like the 24th Illinois, "Hecker's Second Regiment" continued on active duty for the remainder of the war. When Hecker returned home, almost immediately he became involved in a political split in the Republican Party. Dissatisfaction among radical republicans with Lincoln's middle political road came to a head in May 1864 when Hecker led a faction of Frémont supporters to oppose Lincoln's renomination. The Lincoln faction won, and Hecker and others organized an independent convention in Cleveland to nominate Frémont (Frémont ultimately withdrew). The effect, in the end, was to strengthen Lincoln's candidacy among mainstream Republicans.[8]

Yep. Bastards
This feels like the German equivalent of La Marseillaise. Both talk about brutally doing away with the nobility.
Fatty Franz Of cause Germany was influenced by the French Revolution. There was much sympathy until the big bloodshed came. Friedrich Schiller for example.
It sure does sound like Napoleonic propaganda, totally! and also the musical tones do not sound Germanic.
@@montifexmaximus459 Montifex, don't forget, Napoleon overran Germany and most of Europe and imposed his political agenda and his rules and he was ruthlessly against the nobility and clergy, and guilloteen was French instrument - this is so thoroughly Napoleonic French. Most Germans and most Europeans and England too, fought against Napoleon. When a conquering villains overrun the country, they impose their rules and propagate their propaganda. It is not necessarily influence or acceptance, more of like they're subjected to it.

That is the song of the free liberals in Germany from the tradition of the March 1848 Revolution in the tradition of Friedrich Hecker. Friedrich Karl Franz Hecker (born September 28, 1811 in Eichtersheim, Grand Duchy of Baden; † March 24, 1881 in Summerfield, Illinois, USA) was a German-American lawyer, politician and radical democratic revolutionary who was involved in the initial phase of the Baden and German revolutions of 1848 / 49 played a central role until April / May 1848. In Baden he was one of the most popular speakers and agitators of the revolution at this time.
After the defeat of the uprising named after him, he emigrated to the USA. There he fought during the Civil War (1861-1865) as an officer in a German volunteer regiment in the army of the northern states.
The song of the free criminals, I'd say. I don't know how touchy UA-cam doesn't ban this rubbish.

Japan won the battle with Germany in the 1914 Battle of Qingdao, and many German prisoners of war were brought to Japan.It is a story in The Bando POW camp.Toyohisa Matsue was chosen as the chief of the Bando Camp.Matsue was a soldier of the Japanese Army. He ordered his men not to treat German POW absolutely like a criminal.He ordered his men to treat the German POWs with kindness.Japan did not want a war with Germany. At that time, Britain and Japan were allies. There was a request from the United Kingdom, and it became a battle with Germany.There were about 1000 German prisoners of war who came to the Bando camp.At this time, the Japanese government decided to introduce German technology to Japan from Germans.
Japan ordered each camp to receive guidance from German soldiers in all areas.There were leaders in each of the German prisoners of war, such as politics, economics, teaching of musical instruments, bread making, sausages, whiskeys, beer brewing, etc.The Japanese received instruction from them. Germans taught Japanese people how to grow vegetables that were not grown before at the farm.Among the camps were exercise facilities, a bread factory, a beer factory, a dairy farm and farms.It is more correct to say that it is a German village than a camp. Japan treated Germans as friends.Japan permitted POWs to do sports, cultural activities and arts.The POWs made crafts and pictures.
They introduced good European crafts to Japan.A music group formed by German POWs played the first Ludwig van Beethoven symphony No. 9 in Japan.Germans were paid a salary. Salaries were also paid when Germans worked nearby.The Japanese provided goods, money, etc. so that Germans would not be troubled in their lives.There were many exercise facilities in the camp. The sports team formed by the prisoners of war played technical training on soccer in Japan by playing against the Japanese team.At the Narashino camp, excursions to sightseeing spots were often conducted to have Germans enjoy it.There was a restaurant in Bando Camp. There was also a Japanese-owned store. They were free to shop.There were also merchants coming and going to the camp, where they could buy alcohol, daily necessities and sweets.When the German defeat was decided, the Germans were no longer prisoners of war, and their outings were totally free. At the last farewell, the townspeople saw off the marching Germans.Many Germans remained in Japan. They set up a company in Japan and married a Japanese. We Japanese sent 9,000 cherry blossom trees to Germany in 1990. It is said that the money of this cherry blossom trees is gathered by the donation of the Japanese and bought a cherry blossom trees . Almost all Japanese people participated in donations. The Japanese always cooperate with Germany.This cherry blossom tree is still in Berlin.
This is a story that Japanese people helped Germans in japanese Okinawa Miyakojima, Japan. In 1873, the German Merchant shipRobertoson was hit by a typhoon.The ship was aground off Miyakojima Miyakokuni. At that time, the islander rescues the crew.They gave some food to the Germans.They gave Germans a place to sleep. The days were 34 days.And the islanders put a lot of food and water on the ship and sent the Germans to Germany safely.There are still monuments sent from Germany in Okinawa.
@Schmusekatze42 Thank you. God bless you and the German people.Japan's national anthem Kimigayo was made by Hayashi Hiromori and German Franz Eckert.Japan made the constitution, medicine, the army in by reference to Germany during the Meiji era.

Thank you. God bless you and the people of your country.It is a story in the Bando camp.About 100 years ago, there were many German prisoners of war in Japan.Japan did not treat German POWs awfully. The Japanese treated German POWs as friends. Japan respected German POW freedom. Germans were respected in Japan. They spread German culture and history, beer and sausages, Bam Kuuchen etc to Japan. The German bridge created by German prisoners of war is still well preserved in Japan.Japan did not want a war with Germany. At that time, Britain and Japan were allies. There was a request from the United Kingdom, and it became a battle with Germany.
Japan allowed German POWs to do sports and cultural activities.Exchanges between villagers and Germans were also popular. It is more correct to say that the camp where the Germans were located is a German village than a camp. When the Germans returned home, Japanese and Germans grieved for goodbye.
Ahhhh arigatou gozaimasu for sharing those stories with us! So precious :). WE LOVE YOU TOO, JAPAN! I've been to Nihon by myself, had a lovely hostfamily there with which I still have contact! (I've been on Shikoku) We - Japanese and Germans - are Nakamas or more likely Tomodachi!

I’m American (my family came from one of the oldest houses of brandenburg, so German sort-of) and I swear I heard an American child’s song with this melody.
I think several commentators said that, but no one knew which song it is.
Well, at least Friedrich Hecker and some of his people emigrated to the USA after the revolution failed. He then fought there in the civil war for the northern states. Maybe that's how the song got to the US.
@@dr.ludwig this melody is used in a Dutch "happy birthday song"
Well, a lot of german settlers in the US are called 48ers. they are mostly emmigrated from south west german, also known as Baden. baden was very liberal. and when in 48 the Paulskirche and the hecker Aufstand failed. They moved to the liberal west in the US. hecker btw was a commander of a whole german regiment or battalion if i remember correctly. many of his men where former revolutionarys in the hecker aufstand earlier with him. Note, Hecker immigrated to the US in 48, and in 49 when the Badische Revolution occured he traveled back to germany, but arrived to late. he arrived like 5 days after the Soldiers in Rastatt capitulated.
That feeling when you realize you accidentally memorized this song, even though you don't speak German.....

Ein flottes Lied, da kommt Stimmung auf und man kann mitsingen
In diesem Lied da steckt viel Geschichte hinter, da ich aber 86 im Osten Deutschlands geboren bin und ca 91 rüber und die Schule mir diesen Teil der Geschichte nie lehrte (Preußen, Friedrich der große usw & uvm.🤣) Sondern nur ca 1925 - 1945 und das in Dauerschleife + tatsächlich nur ein wenig Kalter Krieg, habe ich eine gewisse Haltung zu dem Land gehabt und habe das Thema abgehakt. Doch seit geraumer Zeit hole ich ein wenig Geschichte auf, seit 2001🤦 fing das an, nun bin ich heute das erstmal auf dieses Lied gestoßen Heckerlied, genauso wie Fridericus Rex und musste ein wenig schmunzeln.
1. Ich liebe ja diese deutsche Sprache also diese Art auch Goethe usw, auch wenn ich sie selbst nicht so gut beherrsche😅 und ich habe das Gefühl das dieses Lied "Heckerlied", heute bei einer Demo mit sagen wir 500.000 Leute, als eventuell gefährlich eingestuft werden könnte🤣😅
2.Stell dir vor so was würdest du heute bei tiktok oder so veröffentlichen 🤯. Wobei dieses Feeling also ich meine das Thema Unterdrückung/Freiheit/ heute Kapitalismus im amerikanischen Stil usw, was solch Musik mit Text ausmacht ist unglaublich❤️. Das wäre Zensur pur.
Ich meine es gibt ihn heute auch noch den Gedanken der Revolution, aber das Feeling heute ist irgendwie anders und wird wahrscheinlich oftmals als rechts abgetan. Man muss das wahrscheinlich unterscheiden weil es gibt Menschen die stehen vermeidlich für Freiheit aber laufen mit /wählen die Fürsten, meist als liberal bezeichnet🤣 und es gibt Menschen die auf diese zeigen und sagen " ihr seid doch die blöden und läuft mit denen aber schreit nach Freiheit"
Aktueller könnten diese beiden letzten Zeilen nicht sein, nun die Unterscheidung.Die die mit dem Finger auf die blöden zeigen, da gibt es Leute wie mich, die sagen dieser Turbo Kapitalismus gehört verändert uvm. und Leute die das wahrscheinlich auch so sehen aber eine tatsächliche, sagen wir eine anti-andere-menschen Besinnung haben, diese beiden werden als rechts abgetan, die letzteren zur Recht.
Immer wenn ich sage das der aktuelle Kapitalismus keine Freiheit ist und du dich als Mensch sicherlich nicht Frei entfalten kannst, zumindest wenn es von Beginn an, an Geld fehlt und du mit schulden startest. Ja, dann kommt die Schublade Karl Marx und wenn ich sage, du verstehst nur zu deinem Vorteil Marx und lässt andere Aspekte aus, ja dann kann man nur noch Rechts sein. Das Thema Marx kam mal auf beim Thema "was für Wirtschaftssysteme gab es in der Geschichte so?"
Aber hier dachte ich irgendwas stimmt doch nicht, alles was so nach der Fed kam + Mauerfall, das kann doch nicht im Sinne von Freiheit sein, versteht ihr?
Und wenn man diese Art von Freiheit infrage stellt, war ich schnell abgestempelt aber jetzt, jetzt wo ich dieses Lied eben gehört habe, bestärkt es mein Gefühl das ich sehr wahrscheinlich richtig liege.
Ich meine es läuft mir heute noch eiskalt den Rücken runter als Buschi so was sagte wie " Wer nicht mit uns gegen den Terrorismus kämpft, der ist ein Terrorist". So kam es zumindest damals rüber.
Ich bin gespannt wo es mit Deutschland ab 2025 hingeht. Wenn der Ami jetzt in Großbritannien Atomwaffen stationieren mag und Trump kommt.
Im dem Sinne, hoch lebe die Revolution ✌️❤️
So genial. Höre es momantan in Endlosschleife :-)
Unverändert zeitgemäß. Hoch die Freiheit.

Genau ist aus der Revolutionszeit. Die deutschen Farben hatten selbst damals noch keine feste Reihenfolge, daher gab es solche Bilder, allerdings war unser goldgelb schon immer anders als das der Belgier immerhin^^
Hallo Dottore, wollte dir eigentlich gestern schreiben, bin aber 24h von YT geblockt worden, wegen Belästigung &Cybermobbing!

Education and politics
Born at Eichtersheim (now Angelbachtal in Baden-Württemberg), the son of a revenue official, he studied law at the University of Heidelberg with the intention of becoming a lawyer. In Heidelberg he became a member of the Corps Rhenania. In 1838, he was an advocate before the Supreme Court in Mannheim.[1] He abandoned the legal profession on being elected to the Second Chamber of Baden in 1842, and at once began to take part in the opposition against the government, which assumed a more and more openly radical character. His talents as an agitator and his personal charm won him wide popularity and influence. His influence helped to oust the Blittersdorf ministry from office.[1]
In early 1845 the political issue of the incorporation of Schleswig and Holstein with Denmark arose in the public eye, with a particular interest to democratically minded politicians who favored unity of all the German states as a core of their programme. On February 6 he gave a speech opposing this annexation in the Baden Second Chamber, which gave him much notoriety outside Baden. On March 9 his friend and liberal compatriot Adolf Sander died suddenly of a lung disease, marking the beginning an ever increasing tone of bitterness by Hecker toward the government. Later that year he and Johann Adam von Itzstein conducted a campaign of democracy, one result of which was his expulsion from Prussia on the occasion of a journey to Stettin, which had the effect of adding to his popularity. During this time, even before the outbreak of the revolution, he also began to lean towards socialism.[2][3]

Glorification of Friedrich Hecker
In 1847 he was temporarily occupied with ideas of emigration, and with this object made a journey to Algiers, but returned to Baden and resumed his former position as the radical champion of popular rights, later becoming president of the Volksverein, where he was destined to fall still further under the influence of the agitator Gustav von Struve. In conjunction with Struve he drew up the radical programme carried at the great Liberal meeting held at Offenburg on September 12, 1847 (entitled Thirteen Claims put forward by the People of Baden). In addition to the Offenburg programme, the Sturm petition of March 1, 1848, attempted to extort from the government the most far-reaching concessions. But it was in vain that on becoming a deputy Hecker endeavoured to carry out its impracticable provisions. He had to yield to the more moderate majority, but on this account was driven still further towards the Left. The proof lies in the new Offenburg demands of March 19, and in the resolution moved by Hecker in the preliminary Frankfurt Parliament that Germany should be declared a republic. But neither in Baden nor Frankfurt did he at any time gain his point.[3]
Friedrich Hecker leaving Germany at Strassburg
This double failure, combined with various energetic measures of the government, which were indirectly aimed at him (e.g. the arrest of the editor of the Constanzer Seeblatt, a friend of Hecker's, in Karlsruhe station on April 8), inspired Hecker with the idea of an armed rising under pretext of the foundation of the German republic. The 9th to 11 April were secretly spent in preliminaries of what would be known as the Hecker Uprising. On April 12, Hecker and Struve sent a proclamation to the inhabitants of the Seekreis and of the Black Forest to summon the people who could bear arms to Donaueschingen at mid-day on the 14th, with arms, ammunition and provisions for six days. They expected 70,000 men, but only a few thousand appeared.[3]
The grand-ducal government of the Seekreis was dissolved, and Hecker gradually gained reinforcements. But friendly advisers also joined him, pointing out the risks of his undertaking. Hecker, however, was not at all ready to listen to them. On the contrary, he added to violence an absurd defiance, and offered an amnesty to the German princes on condition of their retiring within fourteen days into private life. The troops of Baden and Hesse marched against him, under the command of General Friedrich von Gagern, and on April 20 they met near Kandern, where, although Gagern was killed, Hecker was completely defeated.[3]
He fled into the Canton of Basel, where he published a radical newspaper, and wrote his work Die Volkserhebung in Baden (“The popular uprising in Baden”). Although he was again elected to the chamber of Baden, the government, no longer willing to respect his immunity as a deputy, refused its ratification. On being refused admission to the Frankfort Parliament, though twice elected to represent Thiengen, Hecker resolved in September 1848 to emigrate to North America like many other “Forty-Eighters,” and bought a farm near Belleville, Illinois.[1]
American experience and the Civil War
Colonel Hecker during the American Civil War.
After moving to the United States, Hecker always maintained an acute interest in events in Germany. In the spring of 1849, the Baden revolution re-ignited, and Hecker returned to Europe to participate. However, he only made it as far as Strassburg when word came that the insurrection had been defeated by Prussian troops and he returned to Illinois.[3] In 1851 he wrote a foreword to the German translation of Thomas Paine's The Rights of Man which was published in Leipzig in 1851.[citation needed]
However, like most Forty-Eighters, his attention became increasingly focused on domestic political issues in the United States, and in particular the issue of abolishing slavery.[4] When the Illinois Republican Party was organized at a convention in 1856, German-American Forty-Eighters were everywhere conspicuous in the proceedings; Hecker and Abraham Lincoln were selected to be the two electors-at-large if John Frémont were to win the state (which he did not).[5] The Republicans attracted a wide array of political perspectives, with often strongly divergent views except for their opposition to slavery, and the interests of the immigrant Forty-Eighters was in conflict with the nativist Know Nothings. The influence of Hecker and the other German-American leaders was critical in keeping the party unified in regard to its most important principles.[6]
After the Battle of Fort Sumter, Lincoln called for 75,000 volunteers from among the state militia. The Illinois allotment of 6,000 volunteers was exceeded in five days. By June, ten regiments had been accepted, one of which was the 24th Illinois Infantry Regiment, commanded by now Colonel Hecker. The 24th Illinois was the first unit mobilized from Chicago, and was made up of German, Hungarian, Czech and Slovak immigrants, mostly Forty-Eighters. In the early days of the war, the 24th Illinois primarily was assigned to garrison and other rear echelon duties in the western theaters. Under the conditions of dreary guard duty, and not being professional soldiers, morale and discipline faltered, and Hecker resigned his command on December 23, 1861.[7] The 24th continued on, still under the informal name of "Hecker's Old Regiment," and saw action throughout the western theater, including at Chickamauga.
In October 1862, he became colonel of the 82nd Illinois Infantry Regiment. Approximately two-thirds of its members were German immigrants and most of the other third was composed of immigrants from various countries. Company C was entirely made up of European Jews, and Company I was all Scandinavians. The unit served in the eastern campaigns, and Hecker was badly wounded at Chancellorsville on May 2, 1863. After recovering from his wounds, he later served at the Battle of Missionary Ridge and in the capturing of Chattanooga and Knoxville. Hecker resigned this command on March 21, 1864, but like the 24th Illinois, "Hecker's Second Regiment" continued on active duty for the remainder of the war.
When Hecker returned home, almost immediately he became involved in a political split in the Republican Party. Dissatisfaction among radical republicans with Lincoln's middle political road came to a head in May 1864 when Hecker led a faction of Frémont supporters to oppose Lincoln's renomination. The Lincoln faction won, and Hecker and others organized an independent convention in Cleveland to nominate Frémont (Frémont ultimately withdrew). The effect, in the end, was to strengthen Lincoln's candidacy among mainstream Republicans.[8]
