Career

He studied German in Leipzig. In 1994 he joined the weekly newspaper Junge Freiheit (JF), whose politics (1995/96) and culture editor (1997/98) he was. In 1998 he left the editorial staff of the newspaper, but stayed with her as a regular author. In December 2004 he received the in-house Gerhard Löwenthal Prize for Journalism. Hinz lives and works as a freelance author in Berlin . Among other things, he wrote for the Kulturpolitische Korrespondenz , the Preussische Allgemeine Zeitung (PAZ), peculiarly free and the Secession .

reception

Alexander Häusler attested it on the basis of a JF article (2003), in which the " Kulturkampf " was called, "a closed völkisch-nationalist world view in tradition and with open reference to the pro-fascist representatives of the so-called conservative revolution ".

In 2003, Hinz attacked the Berlin project Topography of Terror in the PAZ and assumed it was intended to be popular education .

In an article from 2006, Hinz attacked the offense of sedition ( § 130 StGB ).

He carried a JF-article (2007) and the book equipping the Civil War (2008) to the Civil War matter when.

Hinz (2009) advised against a " Holocaust religion" in the JF . Clemens Heni classified the term as anti-Semitic .

In further contributions of the JF he dealt with the chairwoman of the Amadeu Antonio Foundation Anetta Kahane , whom he described as not having a strong intellectual talent or mediocre nature and repeatedly mentioned her Jewish origins or her turn to the Jewish faith . After Britta Schellenberg, he reviled Kahane in 2007 with his portrait and created "a classic right-wing extremist enemy: Jewish , informers and Bolsheviks ".

In the course of the German abstention from the Libya Resolution 2011, he objected to the Federal Government's behavior without a concept .

Although he criticized Alexander Dugin'sclaim to Russian supremacy” in 2014 , “without rejecting a common alliance altogether”, he welcomed “ Russia's authoritarian measures and the course of confrontation against decadent liberalism ” ( Volker Weiß ).

After the terrorist attack on two mosques in Christchurch in 2019, Hinz claimed in the Junge Freiheit that the perpetrator Brenton Tarrant had laid "traces" to "pretend structural connections [...]". Hinz's attempt to explain this referred to the fact that Tarrant had used right-wing terms, transferred money to the right-wing extremist Identitarian Movement and had contact with its ideologist Martin Sellner .
