Confused Instagram video: Kliemann sees himself as a conspiracy victim

Kliemann sees himself as a conspiracy victim

Did Fynn Kliemann enrich himself with illegal tricks on mask deals? The Stade public prosecutor’s office will try to determine this in the next few weeks. Meanwhile, the entrepreneur jack-of-all-trades returns with a confused video in which he rants about a conspiracy against him and his pet project.

Four days after the Stade public prosecutor’s office launched investigations into suspected fraud against Fynn Kliemann, the influencer and entrepreneur spoke up on his Instagram channel. “So, it’s good now,” he begins Instagram-Story, a good three and a half minute rant in which he stylizes himself and his project “Kliemannsland” as victims of a media conspiracy and the “woken left-wing scene”. A few hours earlier, the “Kliemannsland” – a kind of adventure playground for adults – a longer video published, at the end of which the staff distanced themselves from Kliemann in order to save the project.

In his Instagram video, Kliemann moves frantically through a kind of workshop, he looks breathless when he speaks to the camera. He begins with the role of the media in general in his case. “Quite a lot of people” would have “mixed up quite a bit”, everyone would have written it off. Now his entire life is destroyed – “ten years of non-stop work, everything is broken”. He rejects allegations that he sold masks from Bangladesh under false labels. He made mistakes, he saw that. He made “reparations”.

Then he complains that the employees of his “Kliemannsland” are being held in “kinship custody”. Presumably from the ZDF “Magazine Royale” editorial team, which got the ball rolling at the beginning of May by reporting on inconsistencies in donations and transactions in Kliemann’s corporate network. “I have the feeling that the editors believe they are something better. And they can decide how other people live their lives,” complains Kliemann. “It’s the same bullshit as in the schoolyard back then, that someone wants to tell you how to have fun. In Kliemannsland you’re accepted the way you are. But there’s this one part in the woken left-wing scene that does that just can’t accept.”

He senses an intrigue behind the ZDF reporting: “You made me big with public money, then I didn’t make a mark, and now I’m supposed to be destroyed with exactly the same money.” The motto of the “Kliemanssland” is “be who you want”, but that’s exactly what the world can’t accept. “They want us to be ashamed that we don’t meet their standards. That we’re somehow different.”

Regrets, but admitted nothing

In fact, the allegations against Kliemann are less about how guests and employees at his DIY playground are enjoying themselves and more about whether Kliemann made money under false pretenses. After at least one criminal complaint, investigations are now underway against the businessman. It depends on their results whether Kliemann has to answer in court.

Already three weeks ago Kliemann commented on the allegations in a video – but without admitting any criminally relevant mistakes. Rather, he apologized for errors in his communications and his own alleged ignorance of the business transactions. The clip at the time seemed well thought out and Kliemann calm and tidy.
