Angela Merkel has warned the Germans to forego all "non-mandatory trips" at Easter.
With this she touches on one of the great philosophical questions of our life.
Because what is a compelling trip anyway?
If, for example, it burns in your travel shoes to step with the times, would that be compelling enough?
Or would Joseph von Eichendorff have to have such a trip approved by the Ministry of Coercion in future?
In the unhappy past, the Germans thought that their presence was absolutely necessary everywhere so that the world could recover from their being.
At that time, Germans mostly traveled heavily armed, which was a kind of compulsory act, and these trips were considered mandatory primarily because they were ordered from above.

Germany's freedom from infection is not defended on the “Ballermann”, but at home in the hobby room or on the sofa.
Can the Easter Bunny at least do its job, are its egg redistribution trips mandatory?
Is the Easter Bunny German at all?
If so, there is a night curfew in several German cities.
