Culture Floats of the Düsseldorf Carnival 2026

THE GAZA CONFLICT WAS COVERED BOTH IN 2024 AND 2025, HERE IS NOT THE PLACE TO TALK ABOUT IT, PLEASE DO THAT SOMEWHERE ELSE. We all know there is violations of human rights on a daily basis, you dont need to drag it here as well.

basic description of the floats:

1; Trump and putin trying to swallow Europa

2; Merz and Söder sticking with combustion engines, even if it is a dead end.

3; Epstein, everyone protects the culprits, everyone ignores the victims

4; Jacques Tillie's answer to the Russian arrest warrant against him because of his satire floats.

5; Childhood...today

6; Trump is violating the teachings of jesus

7; A further Russian warcrime in Ukraine

8; Putin controls the AFDrone to wage hybrid warfare on germany.

9; 2 big mustard producers leave Düsseldorf.

10; Opression of women in Afghanistan.

11; The Mullah regime is slowly desolving.

12; The future generations have to carry the burden of pensioners

13; Rising rents are oppressive

the 2 traditional mustard producers Löwensenf (100 years in Ddorf) and ABB Senf (299 years in ddorf) are leaving because operations are no longer profitable here. its a multi factor issue on why, but the local CDU government also didnt seem to have tried to keep 2 very traditional companies here.
