Munich (dpa) – After the ban on rainbow lighting at the Munich EM arena, numerous institutions and companies have known color on Twitter. The profile picture of the Munich fire brigade shone in rainbow colors on Tuesday evening, as did that of Messe München, which described it as a symbol “from a city of joie de vivre, tolerance and cosmopolitanism”. Deutsche Bahn published a picture of a colorful train with colorful hearts.
The Munich police posted a colorful picture on Monday. “For solidarity, tolerance and acceptance, not just today,” the officials wrote. On Tuesday evening, the ZDF posted a Mainzelmännchen who was painting a rainbow on a window pane. Previously, the station ProSieben had announced that it would have its logo shining in the rainbow colors.
The European Football Union UEFA decided on Tuesday that the stadium in Munich should not shine in rainbow colors as a symbol of tolerance and equality during the group final of the German national team against Hungary. The city had made an official application for rainbow lighting. The background to this is a law that restricts young people’s right to information about homosexuality and transsexuality in Hungary and was approved by the Hungarian parliament last week.
