John Edgar Hoover | a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists

“The individual is handicapped by coming face-to-face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists. The American mind simply has not come to a realization of the evil which has been introduced into our midst. It rejects even the assumption that human creatures could espouse a philosophy which must ultimately destroy all that is good and decent.” John Edgar Hoover | Gründer und Ex-Direktor des FBI “Der Einzelne hat das Problem, dass er mit einer so monströsen Verschwörung konfrontiert ist, dass er nicht glauben kann, dass sie existiert….

Henry Louis Mencken | The whole drift of our law

“The whole drift of our law is toward the absolute prohibition of all ideas that diverge in the slightest form from the accepted platitudes, and behind that drift of law there is a far more potent force of growing custom, and under that custom there is a natural philosophy which erects conformity into the noblest of virtues and the free functioning of personality into a capital crime against society.” Henry Louis Mencken “Die ganze Tendenz unseres Gesetzes geht in Richtung des absoluten Verbots aller Ideen, die in der geringsten Form…

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…

Russel Brand | the mainstream media is not your friend

“I’ve made a lot of mistakes, I’ve been wrong many times but I’m beginning to think I’m right about this: the mainstream media is not your friend, the culture is not your friend, the government is not your friend, big business is not your friend. They are operating collegiately in unison to create a set of systems that are beneficial to them and disadvantage you.” Russel Brand „the mainstream media is not your friend“ “Ich habe viele Fehler gemacht, ich habe mich oft geirrt, aber langsam glaube ich, dass ich…

Dave Smith | basic human liberties

“If you believe that the most basic human liberties ought to be contingent on taking a product from a giant pharmaceutical company then you are not liberal or left wing. You’re not a conservative or patriotic. There is only one word to describe you and that is Fascist.” Dave Smith “Wenn Sie glauben, dass die grundlegendsten menschlichen Freiheiten von der Einnahme eines Produkts eines riesigen Pharmakonzerns abhängig gemacht werden sollten, dann sind Sie nicht liberal oder links. Sie sind weder konservativ noch patriotisch. Es gibt nur ein Wort, um Sie…

Dr. John Coleman | A One World Government […] in the form of a feudal system as it was in the Middle Ages.

“A One World Government and one-unit monetary system under permanent non-elected hereditary oligarchists who self-select from among their numbers in the form of a feudal system as it was in the Middle Ages. In this One World entity, population will be limited by restrictions on the number of children per family, diseases, wars, famines, until 1 billion people who are useful to the ruling class, in areas which will be strictly and clearly defined, remain as the total world population. There will be no middle class, only rulers and servants….

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….

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…

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…

“The object in life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.” Marcus Aurelius (Zitat ist möglicherweise falsch zugeordnet!) „Das Ziel im Leben ist nicht auf der Seite der Mehrheit zu sein, sondern darin, sich selbst nicht in den Rängen der Wahnsinnigen wiederzufinden.“ Misattributed Quelle: The first citation appears in a translation of Leo Tolstoy’s Bethink Yourselves!

Murray Rothbard | The function of the statist ideologists

“The function of the statist ideologists is to weave the false set of Emperor’s clothes, to convince the public of a massive double standard: that when the State commits the gravest of high crimes it is really not doing so, but doing something else that is necessary, proper, vital, and even – in former ages – by divine command. The age-old success of the ideologists of the State is perhaps the most gigantic hoax in the history of mankind” Murray Rothbard, “The Ethics of Liberty | Die Ethik der Freiheit”…

Jordan Maxwell | Nothing in this world operates the way you think it does

“Nothing in this world operates the way you think it does. Banks do not loan money, governments are not empowered to protect you, the police department is not there to serve you, institutions of higher learning, colleges and educational institutes, are not there to educate you. The entire superstructure of civilization in the Western world is a combination of brilliantly put together and planned, well-planned, schemes to direct the minds of the people in such a way as to serve their masters.” Jordan Maxwell “Nichts in dieser Welt funktioniert so,…

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…
