Richard Schuberth is a poet and social critic from Vienna. Between 1990 and 1992, Richard Schuberth worked as a cabaret artist. Since 1995, he has been writing articles, essays, academic texts, reviews, poems, aphorisms, radio columns, and polemics, as well as prose, screenplays, and dramas. He also works as a cartoonist and actor.

In the plenary hall of Innsbruck's town hall, he reads from his latest book "On Antisemitism That Doesn't Want to Be".

Schuberth tackles identity politics„ fashionable discourse. Their anti-Israel excesses since October 7, 2023, led him to the psychological and historical roots of Israel-related antisemitism. When does “Israel criticism" become an antisemitic obsession?
Richard Schuberth presents shocking evidence and finds answers that many are unlikely to welcome. In his current book, he makes no secret of the fact that he argues as a left-wing intellectual and considers the political and mental-psychological findings of Theodor W. Adorno and Max Horkheimer to be just as relevant as many economic analyses by Karl Marx. He does this, of course, not for calculated self-preservation, and certainly not to mark his „speaking position“, as the fashionable term goes.
