Gustave de Molinari | Anarchy is no guarantee

Jessica Hamed | no longer be able to trust Germany’s highest

“One of the most significant moments for me in my professional career, apart from being sworn in as an attorney, was signing my first – also successful – constitutional complaint. It pains me to no longer be able to trust Germany’s highest court in a fundamental way.” Jessica Hamed (ist Fachanwältin für Strafrecht und Dozentin an der Hochschule Mainz.) “Einer meiner für mich bedeutsamsten Momente in meiner Berufslaufbahn war neben der Vereidigung zur Rechtsanwältin das Unterzeichnen meiner ersten – auch erfolgreichen – Verfassungsbeschwerde.

Jacques Ellul | It is the emergence of mass media which makes possible the use of propaganda techniques on a societal scale

“It is the emergence of mass media which makes possible the use of propaganda techniques on a societal scale. The orchestration of press, radio and television to create a continuous, lasting and total environment renders the influence of propaganda virtually unnoticed precisely because it creates a constant environment. Mass media provides the essential link between the individual and the demands of the technological society.” Jacques Ellul war ein französischer Soziologe und Theologe. “Durch die Massenmedien kann Propaganda auf die gesamte Gesellschaft angewendet werden. Das Zusammenspiel von Presse, Radio und Fernsehen…

Tony Cartalucci | Your Real Government

“These organizations represent the collective interests of the largest corporations on earth. They not only retain armies of policy wonks and researchers to articulate their agenda and form a consensus internally, but also use their massive accumulation of unwarranted influence in media, industry, and finance to manufacture a self-serving consensus internationally. To believe that this corporate-financier oligarchy would subject their agenda and fate to the whims of the voting masses is naive at best. They have painstakingly ensured that no matter who gets into office, in whatever country, the guns,…

Jacques Ellul | propaganda refines its techniques.

“It is with knowledge of the human being, his tendencies, his desires, his needs, his psychic mechanisms, his automatisms as well as knowledge of social psychology and analytical psychology that propaganda refines its techniques.” Jacques Ellul (war ein französischer Soziologe und Theologe.) “Mit der Kenntnis des Menschen, seiner Neigungen, seiner Wünsche, seiner Bedürfnisse, seiner psychischen Mechanismen, seiner Automatismen sowie mit der Kenntnis der Sozialpsychologie und der analytischen Psychologie verfeinert die Propaganda ihre Techniken.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…

Walter Lippmann | The process by which public opinions arise

“That the manufacture of consent is capable of great refinements no one, I think, denies. The process by which public opinions arise is certainly no less intricate than it has appeared in these pages, and the opportunities for manipulation open to anyone who understands the process are plain enough. . . . as a result of psychological research, coupled with the modern means of communication, the practice of democracy has turned a corner. A revolution is taking place, infinitely more significant than any shifting of economic power. . . ….

Steve Jacobson | Political and economic power

“Political and economic power in the United States is concentrated in the hands of a “ruling elite” that controls most of U.S.-based multinational corporations, major communication media, the most influential foundations, major private universities and most public utilities. Founded in 1921, the Council of Foreign Relations is the key link between the large corporations and the federal government. It has been called a “school for statesmen” and “comes close to being an organ of what C. Wright Mills has called the Power Elite – a group of men, similar in…

Milton Friedman | Every friend of freedom

“Every friend of freedom must be as revolted as I am by the prospect of turning the United States into an armed camp, by the vision of jails filled with casual drug users and of an army of enforcers empowered to invade the liberty of citizens on slight evidence.” Milton Friedman “Jeder Freund der Freiheit muss genauso empört sein wie ich über die Aussicht, die Vereinigten Staaten in ein bewaffnetes Lager zu verwandeln, über die Vision von Gefängnissen, die mit gelegentlichen Drogenkonsumenten gefüllt sind, und von einer Armee von Vollstreckern,…

Mahatma Gandhi | The state represents violence

“The state represents violence in a concentrated and organized form. The individual has a soul, but as the state is a soulless machine, it can never be weaned from violence to which it owes its very existence.” Mahatma Gandhi “Der Staat repräsentiert Gewalt in einer intensivierten und organisierten Form. Das Individuum hat eine Seele, aber der Staat, der eine Maschine ohne Seele ist, kann von Gewalt nicht befreit werden, da er ihm seine Existenz verdankt.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…

Mahatma Gandhi | who dare to question authority

“The world cannot be improved if everyone blindly follows the majority. It needs people who have the courage to question the seemingly irrefutable, who dare to question authority and use their own minds.” Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948) | Indischer Pazifist und Anführer der indischen Unabhängigkeitsbewegung “Die Welt lässt sich nicht verbessern, wenn alle blind der Mehrheit folgen. Es braucht Menschen, die den Mut haben scheinbar Unumstössliches infrage zu stellen, die sich trauen, Autoritäten anzuzweifeln und ihren eigenen Verstand zu gebrauchen.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…

Aldous Huxley | Impersonal forces over which we have almost no control

“Impersonal forces over which we have almost no control seem to be pushing us all in the direction of the Brave New Worldian nightmare; and this impersonal pushing is being consciously accelerated by representatives of commercial and political organizations who have developed a number of new techniques for manipulating, in the interest of some minority, the thoughts and feelings of the masses.” Aldous Huxley, Preface to A Brave New World “Unpersönliche Kräfte, über die wir fast keine Kontrolle haben, scheinen uns alle in Richtung des Albtraums der Schönen Neuen Welt…

Gib ihnen am Morgen eine Lügenzeitung

“Give them a lying newspaper in the morning, let them work a lot during the day for little money and bring the latest manipulated news on TV in the evening, alternating with dumbed-down shows, movies and commercials. Thus they have no more time to think consciously.” Autor Unbekannt “Gib ihnen am Morgen eine Lügenzeitung, lass sie tagsüber für wenig Geld viel arbeiten und bring am Abend im Fernsehen die neuesten manipulierten Nachrichten, abwechselnd mit Verblödungsshows, Filmen und Werbung. Somit haben die keine Zeit mehr, um bewusst nachzudenken.” Nützliche und hilfreiche…

Prof. Dr. Franz Ruppert | Anyone who actually feels the need to get their hands on the levers of power

“Anyone who actually feels the need to get their hands on the levers of power in order to control other people, to tell them what to do, to scare them, is mentally disturbed.” Prof. Dr. Franz Ruppert | The traumatized society! Prof. Dr. Franz Ruppert in conversation (1:16:50) “Wer tatsächlich das Bedürfnis danach verspürt, an die Schalthebel der Macht zu kommen, um andere Menschen zu kontrollieren, ihnen Vorschriften zu machen, ihnen Angst einzujagen, der ist psychisch gestört.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
