Wolf Dietrich Schneider | Swine flu was the first epidemic that was not spread by viruses, but by journalists
"Swine flu was the first epidemic that was not spread by viruses, but by journalists. It quickly became clear that it was far less dangerous than our old winter flu - that most people were therefore unsuspecting and stupidly participating in the scaremongering by the pharmaceutical industry. Even the most responsible journalists usually lack a sense of proportion. We should keep this in mind: The great killers of humanity are hunger, malaria, AIDS, contaminated drinking water and road traffic."
Wolf Dietrich Schneider
Prof. Rainer Mausfeld | The public debating chamber is at the heart of democracy
"The public debating chamber is at the heart of democracy. However, it can only fulfill its function if it is intact in the sense you mentioned. Since the media constitute the public debate space in the first place, they must be designed in such a way that they do not distort it in favor of powerful interest groups. By their very nature, corporate media cannot perform such a task, as their integration into economic power structures almost inevitably makes them an instrument with which powerful economic lobby groups can covertly introduce themselves into the public debate."
Prof. Rainer Mausfeld
Vladimir Lenin | Why should freedom of speech and freedom of press be allowed?
"Why should freedom of speech and freedom of press be allowed? Why should a government which is doing what it believes to be right allow itself to be criticized? It would not allow opposition by lethal weapons. Ideas are much more fatal things than guns. Why should any man be allowed to buy a printing press and disseminate pernicious opinions calculated to embarrass the government?"
Vladimir Lenin
Hanns Joachim Friedrichs | You can tell a good journalist
"You can tell a good journalist by the fact that he doesn't get mean about a cause, even a good cause."

Dr. Jörn Berninger | politically or medially predetermined thought prison
"There are always events that are played up in the media and lead to more and more people subscribing to the opinion given from the outside. This in turn leads them to build up beliefs that become a thought prison. If one is stuck in such a politically or medially predetermined thought prison, one begins to identify with it and hardly finds a way out. You have to look for a loophole to break out of this thought prison."
Dr. Jörn Berninger
Dr. Markus Krall | After 3 years of propaganda is apparent
"After 3 years of propaganda is apparent:
- Covid was just flu
- The mortality figures were fake
- Masks were useless
- Vaccination was useless and harmful
- School closures were useless
- The high priests of the Covid cult are corrupt profiteers
What now?"
Dr. Markus Krall
Winston Churchill | There is only published opinion
"There is no such thing as public opinion. There is only published opinion."

Nicolás Gómez Dávila | In an age in which the media broadcast countless pieces of foolishness
"In an age in which the media broadcast countless pieces of foolishness, the educated man is defined not by what he knows, but by what he doesn't know."
Nicolás Gómez Dávila
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe | The most powerful figment of the imagination is public opinion
"The most powerful figment of the imagination is public opinion: no one knows exactly who makes it, no one has ever met it personally, but everyone lets themselves be tyrannized by it!"
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Max Goldt | This newspaper is an organ of infamy
"This newspaper is an organ of infamy. It is wrong to read it. Someone who contributes to this newspaper is absolutely unacceptable socially. It would be wrong to be friendly or even polite to one of its editors. One must be as unkind to them as the law will just allow. They are bad people who do wrong."
Max Goldt
Tony Benn | I think there are two ways in which people are controlled
"I think there are two ways in which people are controlled. First of all, frighten people, and secondly, demoralise them. An educated, healthy and confident nation is harder to govern. And I think there’s an element in the thinking of some people... ‘We don’t want people to be educated, healthy and confident, because they would get out of control."
Tony Benn
Volker Pispers | What do you think would be going on here
"What do you think would be going on here, if more people realized what was going on?"

Gustave Le Bon | The masses have never thirsted after truth
"The masses have never thirsted after truth. They turn aside from evidence that is not to their taste, preferring to deify error, if error seduce them. Whoever can supply them with illusions is easily their master; whoever attempts to destroy their illusions is always their victim. An individual in a crowd is a grain of sand amid other grains of sand, which the wind stirs up at will."
Gustave Le Bon
Jean-Luc Godard | Cannes is a propaganda tool
"Zelensky's intervention at the Cannes festival goes without saying if you look at it from the angle of what is called "staging": a bad actor, a professional comedian, under the eye of other professionals in their own professions. I believe I must have said something along these lines a long time ago. It therefore took the staging of yet another world war and the threat of another catastrophe for us to know that Cannes is a propaganda tool like any other. They propagate Western aesthetics whilst thinking it is not a big deal, but it is just that. The truth of the images is only advancing slowly. Now imagine that the war itself is this aesthetic deployed during a world festival, whose stakeholders are the states in conflict, or rather “interests”, broadcasting representations of which we are all spectators for… you, like me. We often say “conflict of interest”, which is a tautology. There is no conflict, big or small, unless there is interest. Brutus, Nero, Biden, or Putin, Constantinople, Iraq or Ukraine, not much has changed, apart from the mass murder."

Erich Limpach | believing yesterday’s lies as today’s truths
"If people continue to allow themselves to be talked into believing yesterday's lies as today's truths, then tomorrow's whip will make them painfully aware, too late, of the dangers that laziness of thought has in its wake."
Erich Limpach
Just.A.Thought | Being a “conspiracy theorist”
"Being a "conspiracy theorist" is spending endless hours for years & years gathering as much information as possible from as many resources as possible and critically thinking about what that information means then having people who do nothing but watch TV tell you you're crazy."

Walter Lippmann | a drifting apart of public opinion and published opinion
"...a drifting apart of public opinion and published opinion when the selection rules of the journalists who have been brought into line largely coincide. This creates a consonance of reporting that acts like a confirmation to the audience (everyone says it, so it has to be right) and installs a stereotype-supported pseudo-environment"
Walter Lippmann
Prof. Rainer Mausfeld | The leading media as well as the mass media are business models
"The leading media as well as the mass media are business models and serve no more to convey "truth" than the pharmaceutical industry serves to promote public health. Indoctrination is part of the essence of media."
Prof. Rainer Mausfeld
Prof. Christoph Degenhart | The broadcasters adopt government lines in an undifferentiated manner
"In the portrayal of political processes, I often see a certain political one-sidedness. For example, when it comes to the topics of ecology or Europeanization, critics are always put in the right-wing corner. [....] The broadcasters adopt government lines in an undifferentiated manner. ARD and ZDF are increasingly acting as an acclamation forum for politics."
Professor Christoph Degenhart
Erich Fromm | Indeed, freedom and the capacity for disobedience are inseparable
"Indeed, freedom and the capacity for disobedience are inseparable; hence any social, political, and religious system which proclaims freedom, yet stamps out disobedience, cannot speak the truth."
Erich Fromm
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
