Roland Baader | We have the entire political elite against us

"We have the entire political elite against us. [...] The development will be a bad one. [...] I see nothing good, nothing good at all, I see no approach anywhere. The problems have been dealt with by the same means that created the problems in the first place. [...]
We will get more and more socialism, new kinds of socialism, new kinds of fascism. In any case, more totalitarianism, less freedom and an overall radicalization. We will also experience riots, we will have unrest and explosive growths in crime."

Roland Baader

Mark Passio | The Dark Occult Origins of Nazism and Communism

"We need to take a deeper look at politics. This is where most people stop; they only see the political ideologies. What they don’t understand is that these things are not just political mentalities—they are religions. I want to say this unequivocally: Nazism and Communism are religions. This is something that is very much not known by the general public. They don’t see it that way, they don’t view it that way, because they’ve been conditioned not to see it that way. But make no mistake—behind these political ideologies lies religion.

What I want to get to is the religion that they share in common, because they have a common root religion, and that’s the thesis of this whole presentation. Nazism and Communism are political masks that are presented to the public as diametric opposites, but at their ideological core lies a common root religion which created and controls them both as systems of human slavery. That’s the whole takeaway of this entire body of research. You have to understand that there is a common puppeteer hand that ultimately controls both of these political masks, and that is a religious system. It is a covert religious system, but it is a religious system nonetheless."

Communist Party | When certain obstructionists become too irritating

"When certain obstructionists become too irritating, label them, after suitable build-ups, as Fascist or Nazi or anti Semitic ... to discredit them. In the public mind, constantly associate those who oppose us with those names which already have a bad smell. The association will, after enough repetition, become 'fact' in the public mind."

Vladimir Lenin | We can and must write in a language

"We can and must write in a language which sows among the masses hate, revulsion, and scorn toward those who disagree with us."

Vladimir Lenin

Theodore Dalrymple | Political correctness is communist propaganda

"Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to."

Yuri Bezmenov | Warning against subversion and intellectual slavery

"Die meisten amerikanischen Politiker, Medien und Bildungseinrichtungen glauben, sie lebten in Friedenszeiten. Das ist ein Irrtum. Die Vereinigten Staaten befinden sich in einem Krieg – einem nicht erklärten, aber umfassenden Krieg gegen die grundlegenden Werte und das Fundament der amerikanischen Gesellschaft. Ziel der marxistischen Ideologie war es, diese Werte zu untergraben, die Wirtschaft zu destabilisieren und Krisen auszulösen, um die freie Welt in Richtung sowjetischer Strukturen zu verändern.

Die höchste Form der Kriegsführung besteht nicht darin, physisch zu kämpfen, sondern darin, die wertvollsten Elemente eines Landes systematisch zu unterwandern – bis der Gegner die Realität so verzerrt wahrnimmt, dass er den Angreifer nicht einmal mehr als Feind erkennt."

Yuri Bezmenow

Dr. Markus Krall | Every generation has been exposed to socialist seduction

"Every generation has been exposed to socialist seduction in ever new disguises. And always a part falls for the totalitarian ideologists. And again and again there is a confrontation between humanity and totalitarianism. Also today. #EcoSocialism"

Dr. Markus Krall

Roland Baader | It is … a naivety that cannot be excused by anything to believe

"It is ... a naivety that cannot be excused by anything to believe that a state can be total in the economic sphere without being so at the same time in the political and spiritual sphere ...." ... Democracy and socialism are not a tautology (à la Oskar),but radical, mutually exclusive opposites. Democracy is a method of limiting and controlling power. Socialism, on the other hand, always denies the individual freedom of choice of individuals over their economic preferences and life goals (supposedly in favor of the general public, the collective); thus socialism always assigns sovereignty over the decisive existential forces and life motivations to the state or a party or political cliques, and thus socialism is never a system or method for limiting power, but always and everywhere pseudo-moral justification for patronizing life, carte blanche for cynically moralizing unrestrained power."

Fritz Bauer | obedience par excellence is a virtue

"Unfortunately, it is a typical German trait to think that obedience par excellence is a virtue. We need the civil courage to say 'no'."

Ludwig von Mises | Nothing can make a demagogue more popular today

"Nothing can make a demagogue more popular today than when he repeatedly calls for sharp taxes against the rich [...] Wealth levies and high income taxes on the larger incomes are quite extraordinarily popular with the masses who do not have to pay them."

Ludwig von Mises

Roland Baader | Ecologism is a decay product of Marxism

"Ecologism is (among quite a few other ism) a decay product of Marxism. The failed "impoverishment thesis" is replaced by the eco- and climate catastrophe. The goal is the extinction of capitalism - and thus of Western freedom."

Roland Baader

Joseph Goebbels | According to the idea of the NSDAP, we are the German left

"According to the idea of the NSDAP [Nazi party], we are the German left. Nothing is more hateful to us than the right-wing national ownership block."

Bertolt Brecht | When crimes begin to pile up they become invisible

"When crimes begin to pile up they become invisible. When sufferings become unendurable the cries are no longer heard. The cries, too, fall like rain in summer."

Bertolt Brecht

Jon Rappoport | Socialism is

"Socialism is: The taking of money (taxes) from some people who work for it and giving it to others who don't work for it. On a grand scale. The vast expansion of freebies doled out by central government. In order to create and sustain dependence. The government protection of favored persons and corporations, permitting them and aiding them to expand their fortunes without limit, regardless of what crimes they commit in the process. (Monsanto would be a fine example.) The squeezing out of those who would compete with the favored persons and corporations. The dictatorship by and for the very wealthy, pretending to be the servant of the masses. The lie that the dictatorship is being run by the masses. The gradual lowering of the standard of living for the overwhelming number of people. The propaganda claiming socialism is the path to a better world for all. In other words, socialism is a protection racket and a long con and a heartless system of elite control, posing as the greatest good. It is just another form of top-down tyranny---as old as the hills."

Jon Rappoport

Ludwig von Mises | The champions of socialism

"The champions of socialism call themselves progressives, but they recommend a system which is characterized by rigid observance of routine and by a resistance to every kind of improvement. They call themselves liberals, but they are intent upon abolishing liberty. They call themselves democrats, but they yearn for dictatorship. They call themselves revolutionaries, but they want to make the government omnipotent. They promise the blessings of the Garden of Eden, but they plan to transform the world into a gigantic post office. Every man but one a subordinate clerk in a bureau."

Ludwig von Mises, Bureaucracy

General Aladeen | Why are you guys so anti-dictators?

"Why are you guys so anti-dictators? Imagine if America was a dictatorship. You could let 1% of the people have all the nation's wealth. You could help your rich friends get richer by cutting their taxes. And bailing them out when they gamble and lose. You could ignore the needs of the poor for health care and education. Your media would appear free, but would secretly be controlled by one person and his family. You could wiretap phones. You could torture foreign prisoners. You could have rigged elections. You could lie about why you go to war. You could fill your prisons with one particular racial group, and no one would complain. You could use the media to scare the people into supporting policies that are against their interests."

George Orwell | These people don’t see that

"These people don’t see that if you encourage totalitarian methods, the time may come when they will be used against you instead of for you."

Bärbel Bohley | the thorough research into the Stasi structures

"All these investigations, the thorough research into the Stasi structures, the methods with which they worked and still work, all this will fall into the wrong hands. One will examine these structures in detail - in order to then take them over. They will be adapted a little to fit a free Western society. They won't necessarily arrest the troublemakers either. There are more subtle ways to disarm someone. But the secret bans, the watching, the suspicion, the fear, the isolation and exclusion, the branding and muzzling of those who don't conform - that will come back, believe me. Institutions will be created that will work much more effectively, much more finely than the Stasi. The constant lying will also come back, the disinformation, the fog in which everything loses its contour."

Bärbel Bohley

Joseph Sobran | ‘Need’ now means wanting someone else’s money

"'Need' now means wanting someone else's money. 'Greed' means wanting to keep your own. 'Compassion' is when a politician arranges the transfer."

Winston Churchill | the Russian people by the hair

"[Bolshevism] among the Jews is nothing new. From the days of Spartacus-Weishaupt to those of Karl Marx, and down to Trotsky (Russia), Bela Kun (Hungary), Rosa Luxembourg (Germany), and Emma Goldman (United States)... this worldwide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilisation and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality, has been steadily growing. It has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the 19th century; and now at last this band of extraordinary personalities from the underworld of the great cities of Europe and America have gripped the Russian people by the hair of their heads and have become practically the undisputed masters of that enormous empire."

Winston Churchill

"The politician who once had to learn to flatter Kings has now to learn how to fascinate, amuse, coax, humbug, frighten, or otherwise strike the fancy of the electorate."

"Universal suffrage did not give the masses the right to decide, but to approve the decision of one elite or another."

Jack Posobiec | homogenized consumer class of worker drones

"You're going to be a homogenized consumer class of worker drones in order for them to establish Elysium, and this is also where ... the metaverse comes in. Transhumanism, this is your bread and circuses now. It's virtual bread and circuses to distract you from the suffering that goes on all around you."

Jack Posobiec

George Orwell | To keep them in control was not difficult

"Heavy physical work, the care of home and children, petty quarrels with neighbors, films, football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult."

Thomas Sowell | Socialism in general has a record of failure so blatant

"Socialism in general has a record of failure so blatant that only an intellectual could ignore or evade it. Even countries that were once more prosperous than their neighbors have found themselves much poorer than their neighbors after just one generation of socialistic policies."

Walter Ulbricht | it must look democratic

"it must look democratic but we must control everything"

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

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
