So I am on vacation rn and was in Trier. At one of the city squares I saw what looked to be a group of protesters. Now I barely know more than 10 words of German and was wondering what this was about. Attached is an image of what I saw. My grandmother, who speaks German, said they were saying something like "no therapy" a bunch. Anybody know what this was about?

Do you have a picture where we can read one of the signs?
Your photo isn’t high enough quality to read the makeshift placards, but they look like students (one of them is holding a placard that says something about bachelors and masters degrees), and I think one of the placards says something about the psyche being left in the dark without financing(?). Perhaps they’re complaining about the lack of proper psychological support, or an increase in their workloads?
I haven’t seen any reports about this demo, but in the last few days there have been demos in Trier calling for more punctual school buses and protesting the presence of a Bundeswehr stand at a job fair. There are demos for and against the most trivial of things, that being a fundamental democratic right and all: I don’t think this one is about Palestine or Nazis or anything.
