As a long-time follower and admirer of El Hotzo, I’ve always appreciated his unique brand of political satire that has resonated with so many young Germans. His memes have been a source of both laughter and thought-provoking commentary on current events. But his recent tweet about Trump has caused quite the stir.
Sebastian Hotz, commonly referred to as “El Hotzo,” gained recognition for his politically satirical content on X and Instagram. Boasting an impressive following of 1.4 million people on Instagram, he has ignited the interest and humor of many young Germans.
But his latest meme has caused way more controversy than he bargained for.
El Hotzo Implies That He Wants Trump Dead
I recently came across a meme shared by El Hotzo on Twitter that got me thinking. It depicted an image of a bus with the caption “Last Bus Ride,” and next to it was a picture of former President Trump, with the punchline reading, “Sadly, just missed it.” Reflecting on this, I pondered over what could possibly link the last bus ride and Donald Trump. The answer may be subjective, but for me, it’s the feeling of being left behind or missing out on something significant.

The Aftermath
This really blew up because the comedian is, at least to some extent, state-funded.

In contrast to some other places, Germany boasts both publicly-owned and privately-operated networks. Here’s an intriguing fact: every single German resident, whether they actively use these services or not, contributes a
Previously, Sebastian Hotz, known as El Hotzo, ran a radio program on Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (RBB), a public broadcasting station in Berlin. Following recent disputes, RBB has publicly disassociated themselves from Hotz’s comments and temporarily severed ties with the comedian. However, the fallout couldn’t be completely prevented.
International uproar ensued when Elon Musk replied to German Chancellor Olaf Scholz via a tweet.
To clarify completely, it is up to RBB’s executives, not the government, to decide whether to collaborate with Sebastian Hotz.
The whole ordeal has once again forced us to address the age-old question: What counts as a joke?
Some individuals argue that El Hotzo deliberately provokes conflict or violence towards those holding contrasting political beliefs.
Some people argue that Elon Musk’s tweets are merely satire, yet they find it hypocritical of him because he consistently advocates for the right to free speech, particularly when discussing comedy.
Despite the circumstances, El Hotzo remains unfazed and even makes light of the situation through Instagram posts.
What do you think about this? Should someone like El Hotzo be fired for a tweet?
