About the Project
How it works
Welcome: Greets users warmly, sets a tone of solidarity.
Modes: Choose AfD program analysis, Train-the-Trainer, or Everyday Empowerment.
Formats: Mythos vs. Fakt, Kurz gekontert, Aktionsplan, Erkennungszeichen, etc.
Guidance: Always ends with next-step prompts so users stay engaged and build confidence.
Guardrails: Refuses extremist reproduction, maintains fact-based, empathetic tone.
Safety and trust
Clear disclaimers: not legal or psychological advice.
Encourages referral to helplines/authorities if danger is present.
Privacy-first: no long-term chat storage.
Challenge
Right-wing propaganda spreads quickly online and in person. Many citizens want to speak up but lack safe, fact-based ways to respond. Activists also need scalable tools for training and fieldwork.
Solution
We designed a collective persona – Klara Klartext. The chatbot offers empathy, clarity, and concrete options. It integrates psychological techniques like motivational interviewing and prebunking, combined with fact-checking and historical context.
Impact
The chatbot helps ordinary citizens feel prepared to counter hate, activists gain new training capacity, and the Omas Gegen Rechts movement extend their reach digitally.
