Bill Hicks | a productive member of society

“If you want to understand a society, take a good look at the drugs it uses. And what can this tell you about American culture? Well, look at the drugs we use. Except for pharmaceutical poison, there are essentially only two drugs that Western civilization tolerates: Caffeine from Monday to Friday to energize you enough to make you a productive member of society, and alcohol from Friday to Monday to keep you too stupid to figure out the prison that you are living in.” Bill Hicks “Wenn man eine Gesellschaft…

Erich Fromm | The holders of authority and those who take advantage of it

“The holders of authority and those who take advantage of it must convince people of this fiction and put to sleep their realistic, that is to say, critical, faculty of thought. Every thinking person knows the methods of propaganda, methods by which critical judgment is destroyed and the mind is lulled until it submits to clichés that stultify people because they make them dependent, depriving them of the ability to trust their eyes and their judgment. This function, in which they believe, blinds them to reality.” Erich Fromm “Die Inhaber…

Karl Jaspers | Where is the Federal Republic headed?

“Every four years it elects the Bundestag. The lists or persons submitted to it by the parties are already elected beforehand by the parties. The process of this hidden preliminary election, which is the actual election, is convoluted; the names for the constituency lists and the state lists are not drawn up in the same way. But it is always the party committees, never the people, who would be involved in this decisive beginning. One must be a party member in order to participate somewhere in this election and to…

Dieter Hallervorden | ‘gendern’ is absurd and rather supervised speech

“The German language as a cultural asset belongs to all of us. No one has a right to tamper with it. I wonder how a politically motivated minority comes to want to dictate to a majority how we want to express ourselves in the future. This unspeakable ,’gendern’ is absurd and rather supervised speech.” Dieter Hallervorden | Der Kabarettist “Die deutsche Sprache als Kulturgut gehört uns allen. Keiner hat ein Recht, darin herumzupfuschen. Ich frage mich, wie eine politisch motivierte Minderheit dazu kommt, einer Mehrheit vorschreiben zu wollen, wie wir…

Elon Musk | you can tell it’s real because it looks so fake

“I think it looks so ridiculous and impossible, you can tell it’s real because it looks so fake, honestly. We’d have way better CGI if it was fake. The colors all look kind of weird in space. There’s no atmospheric occlusion; everything’s too crisp. It’s just literally a normal car in space — I kind of like the absurdity of that, it’s kind of silly and fun, but I think that silly, fun things are important … I think the imagery of it is something that’s going to get people…

Caitlin Johnstone | The empire still fears the public

“The empire still fears the public. If it didn’t it wouldn’t bother rolling out so much propaganda ahead of all its depraved actions—it would just act.

Wenn es das nicht täte, würde es sich nicht die Mühe machen, so viel Propaganda im Vorfeld all seiner verderblichen Aktionen zu verbreiten – es würde einfach…

Hermann Hesse | I have been and still am a seeker

“I do not consider myself less ignorant than most people. I have been and still am a seeker, but I have ceased to question stars and books. I have begun to listen to the teachings my blood whispers to me.

Woody Harrelson | Of course, we live in a completely corrupted world

“Of course, we live in a completely corrupted world where every government is just a bunch of businessmen working for a bunch of bigger businessmen and none of them give a shit about the people.

Frank Zappa | Schools train people to be ignorant

“Schools train people to be ignorant, with style. They give you the equipment that you need to be a functional ignoramus. American schools* do not equip you to deal with things like logic; they don’t give you the criteria by which to judge between good and bad in any medium or format; and they prepare you to be a usable victim for military-industrial complex that needs manpower. As long as you’re just smart enough to do a job and just dumb enough to swallow what they feed you, you’re gonna…
