Sergei Petrowitsch Kapiza | state of deep hypnosis
“Society sees nothing because it is kept in a state of deep hypnosis. People have never been so manipulated as they are now. A human being is not given a chance to stop and understand what is happening. Endless series, one more stupid than the other, vulgar pop music, lustful or aggressive films that gently affect the subconscious, cultivate a spirit of selfishness and violence. A normal person quickly becomes an unprincipled animal that leads an absolutely meaningless life.”

Prof. Dr. Knut Löschke | how natural science is turned into a whore of politics
"I'm fed up, or to put it even more clearly: I'm fed up with the permanent and increasingly religious climate gibberish, with energy turnaround fantasies, with electric car worship, with scary stories about doomsday scenarios from Corona to conflagrations to weather catastrophes. I can no longer stand the people who shout this into microphones and cameras every day or print it in newspapers. I suffer from having to witness how natural science is turned into a whore of politics.
I am tired of being told what to be ashamed of by abused, pubescent children. I am tired of being told by some deranged people that I am to blame for everything and everyone - but especially as a German for the past, present and future misery of the whole world. [....]"

Yuri Bezmenow | the tragedy of the situation of demoralization
"Exposure to true information does not matter anymore.
A person who is demoralized is unable to assess true information.
The facts tell nothing to him.
Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures.
Even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union, and show him a concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it, until he is going to receive a kick in his fat bottom.
When the military boot crushes his balls, then he will understand, but not before that.
That is the tragedy of the situation of demoralization."
Yuri Bezmenow
Yuval Noah Harari | The chief value of science is power
Die Wahrheit war nie die höchste Priorität der menschlichen Gesellschaft. Sie war die höchste Priorität einiger Individuen, aber niemals der Gesellschaft als Ganzes – denn die Gesellschaft funktioniert nicht auf der Basis von Wahrheit. Wenn man zwei der mächtigsten Institutionen der Menschheit betrachtet – die Wissenschaft (und ihre Gemeinschaft) sowie die Religion (und ihre Kirchen) –, dann hat keine von ihnen die Wahrheit als ihren zentralen Wert. Für einzelne Menschen mag das gelten, aber nicht für die Institutionen als solche.
Der Hauptwert der Wissenschaft ist Macht; der Hauptwert der Religion ist Ordnung und Organisation. Religion dient dazu, Ordnung in der Gesellschaft aufrechtzuerhalten, während es der Wissenschaft in erster Linie um Macht über die Welt geht.
