Henry Louis Mencken | The urge to save humanity

“The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false-face for the urge to rule it. Power is what all messiahs really seek: not the chance to serve. This is true even of the pious brethren who carry the gospel to foreign parts.” Henry Louis Mencken “Der Drang, die Menschheit zu retten, ist fast immer nur ein Deckmantel für den Drang, sie zu beherrschen. Macht ist das, was alle Messiasse wirklich suchen: nicht die Möglichkeit, zu dienen. Das gilt sogar für die frommen Brüder, die das Evangelium in fremde…

Prof. Reiner Mausfeld | A ‘war against X’ decreed from above

“A ‘war against X’ decreed from above – be it against ‘terror’ or against a pandemic – is never about what is declared to be fought. All that is sold here as a war against a threat must not be successful at all, because its success for the economic and political centers of power lies precisely in not being successful and in remaining as a means of generating fear and securing domination.” Prof. Reiner Mausfeld “Bei einem von oben verordnetem ‚Krieg gegen X‘ – sei es gegen den ‚Terror‘ oder…

Dr. Robert Malone | Techno-fascism for the rest of their natural lives as serfs

“They are coming from a belief system that says that nation-state is an obsolete idea and we have to have a one-world government that is basically a fusion of the interests of corporations and politics, global politics. And we’ve got to start by finding out who they are, voting them out of office, making sure they are not part of our governments. Two of the more prominent ones, are Governors Gavin Newsom of California and Jay Inslee of Washington. Both are WEF traitors working on behalf of foreign globalist interests,…

Alexis de Tocqueville | the species of oppression by which democratic nations

„I think then that the species of oppression by which democratic nations are menaced is unlike anything which ever before existed in the world: our contemporaries will find no prototype of it in their memories. I am trying myself to choose an expression which will accurately convey the whole of the idea I have formed of it, but in vain; the old words “despotism” and “tyranny” are inappropriate: the thing itself is new; and since I cannot name it, I must attempt to define it. I seek to trace the…

Yuval Noah Harari | “I think maybe in a couple of decades when people look back

“I think maybe in a couple of decades when people look back, the thing they will remember from the Covid crisis is this is the moment when everything went digital and this was the moment when everything became monitored, that we agreed to be surveilled all the time, not just in authoritarian regimes, but even in democracies and maybe most importantly, this was the moment when surveillance started going under the skin, because really we haven’t seen anything yet. I think that the big process that’s happening right now, the…

Fritz Bauer | no to state injustice

“The certainly stirring but decisive lesson of our trials, however, demands a readiness to say an unequivocal no to state injustice.” The trials demand that people renounce private and family advantages and are also prepared to make personal sacrifices if they are required to do or tolerate evil, even if it is the state that makes itself the advocate of evil.” Fritz Bauer, »Im Namen des Volkes. Die strafrechtliche Bewältigung der Vergangenheit«, in: Helmut Hammerschmidt (Hrsg.), Zwanzig Jahre danach. Eine deutsche Bilanz 1945-1965. München u.a.: Desch Verlag, 1965, S. 314….

Richard Horton | The case against science is straightforward

“The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness” Richard Horton, Publisher of The Lancet “Das Argument gegen die Wissenschaft ist einfach: Ein Großteil der wissenschaftlichen Literatur, vielleicht die Hälfte, ist einfach unwahr.

Edwin Grant Conklin | Dictators seek to control men’s thoughts

Doris Lessing | “You are in the process of being indoctrinated”

“Ideally, what should be said to every child, repeatedly, throughout his or her school life is something like this: “You are in the process of being indoctrinated. We have not yet evolved a system of education that is not a system of indoctrination. We are sorry, but it is the best we can do. What you are being taught here is an amalgam of current prejudice and the choices of this particular culture. The slightest look at history will show how impermanent these must be. You are being taught by…
