#schokokuss

Die verschiedenen Begriffe habe ich einer Diskussion auf chefkoch.de entnommen. Nicht angemessene Begriffe für Schokokuss wurden aus den Begriffen entfernt und durch Schokokuss ersetzt.

Es wäre spannend, wenn ihr in die Tags schreibt, was ihr sagt und woher ihr kommt. Ich komme aus Südhessen und sage Sportlerweck.

Okay, so them eating the chocolate marshmallows in this scene is genius imo (picture borrowed from @notafraidofredyellowandblue​, thank you!). Lemme explain my interpretation:

The song deals with xenophobia in general, which is immediately hinted at in the beginning of the video by showing the dark-skinned woman and the girl behind the barbed wire. Now, in the end scene they are watching the same woman and the girl in the TV while sitting in a very bourgeois living room setting. The woman and the girl are obviously in distress in the situation they are in, while the 6 German men sit in their comfortable home eating chocolate marshmallows, unbothered by the suffering and watching from a safe distance. Now why the chocolate marshmallows?

Nowadays these chocolate marshmallows are called “Schokokuss” (chocolate kiss) in Germany, but not a long time ago (pretty much til the late 90s I’d say), they were called “Negerkuss” (nigger kiss) (sorry for the language here, I wanna provide some context though to show how genius the makers of this video and Rammstein are). I am so convinced this is the context you need to understand why they choose to let them eat chocolate marshmallows! It hints at everyday racism, being in a state where you don’t stop unethical stuff but remain where you are and where your only connection to an issue is pretty much a sweet with a racist name.

Nach meiner gestrigen Umfrage musste ich mit Entsetzen feststellen, dass einigen von euch das Konzept eines Schokokussbrötchens vollkommen unbekannt ist, deshalb hier Teil 2 der gestrigen Umfrage.
