Over the past two weeks in Berlin, another sign of avoiding ban rules has come up. Deutsche Welle brought up the topic, but a number of Berlin news sites are talking about the trend.
Techo bars/clubs were fairly popular in Berlin before Covid-19 came along....but since the bans took place....they were basically shut down to massive crowds.
So what happened? Well....secret parties are now organized. Massive crowds show up.
Welle pointed out one party from last week....with 3k guests.
The locations being used? Some are in city parks....some occur in the forest of the region, and some are in older unused buildings. All organized at the last minute, with booze and speakers set up in a matter of an hour or two.
Getting the info out without the authorities figuring this out? It appears that they aren't using the normal Facebook or Twitter 'toys'....preferring lesser known social media gadgets which aren't typically monitored. The message then gets passed around via email or WhatsApp.
Spreading Corona? More than likely.....yet they don't care.
What'll happen with this trend? My guess is that a second wave will be determined....angering the Berlin political figures, and triggering some secret police organization to infiltrate the party organization and try to halt the parties.
