“If you can feel that staying human is worth while, even when it can’t have any result whatever, you’ve beaten them.” George Orwell “Wenn du fühlen kannst, dass es sich lohnt, menschlich zu bleiben, auch wenn es zu keinem Ergebnis führt, hast du sie besiegt.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“It’s not so much staying alive, it’s staying human that’s important. What counts is that we don’t betray each other.” Georg Orwell “Es geht nicht so sehr darum, am Leben zu bleiben, es ist wichtig, menschlich zu bleiben. Was zählt, ist, dass wir einander nicht verraten.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“Schools train people to be ignorant, with style. They give you the equipment that you need to be a functional ignoramus. American schools* do not equip you to deal with things like logic; they don’t give you the criteria by which to judge between good and bad in any medium or format; and they prepare you to be a usable victim for military-industrial complex that needs manpower. As long as you’re just smart enough to do a job and just dumb enough to swallow what they feed you, you’re gonna…
“Political correctness has now reached a level in our society that I see as highly questionable. It starts with the deletion of more and more postings in the social media. Postings, mind you, with content that is clearly not punishable or otherwise legally actionable. The mere fact that a certain group might feel offended by a text is enough. More and more companies and corporations are joining this unfortunate trend and issuing internal memos about required language rules or how to deal with certain topics, the disregard of which can…
“How is the world ruled and led to war? Diplomats lie to journalists and believe these lies when they see them in print.” Karl Kraus | (1874 – 1936), österreichischer Schriftsteller, Publizist, Satiriker, Lyriker, Aphoristiker und Dramatiker Quelle: Kraus, Nachts. Aphorismen, 1924. V. 1915 “Wie wird die Welt regiert und in den Krieg geführt? Diplomaten belügen Journalisten und glauben es, wenn sie’s lesen.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“The bewildered herd is a problem. We’ve got to prevent their roar and trampling. We’ve got to distract them. They should be watching the Superbowl or sitcoms or violent movies. Every once in a while you call on them to chant meaningless slogans like “Support our troops.” You’ve got to keep them pretty scared, because unless they’re properly scared and frightened of all kinds of devils that are going to destroy them from outside or inside or somewhere, they may start to think, which is very dangerous, because they’re not…
“I think there is a good reason why the propaganda system works that way. It recognizes that the public will not support the actual policies. Therefore it is important to prevent any knowledge or understanding of them.” Noam Chomsky “Ich denke, es gibt einen guten Grund, warum das Propagandasystem so funktioniert. Es erkennt, dass die Öffentlichkeit die eigentliche Politik nicht unterstützen wird. Deshalb ist es wichtig, jede Kenntnis oder jedes Verständnis von ihnen zu verhindern.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“It is not the use of violence that seems to me condemnable, but its mysticism, the religion of violence in the service of the totalitarian state, in the service of the dictatorship of the general welfare, considered not as a means but as an end.” Georges Bernanos (Schriftsteller, wird als “französischer Dostojewski” bezeichnet, “Monsieur Ouine”, “Les Grands Cimetières sous la Lune”, “Nouvelle Histoire de Mouchette” | Frankreich, 1888 – 1948). “Nicht der Gebrauch der Gewalt erscheint mir verdammenswert, sondern ihre Mystik, die Religion der Gewalt im Dienste des totalitären Staates,…
“In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.” Winston S. Churchill “In Kriegszeiten ist die Wahrheit so kostbar, dass sie immer von einer Leibwache der Lügen begleitet werden sollte.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history.” George Orwell “Der effektivste Weg, Menschen zu zerstören, besteht darin, ihr eigenes Verständnis ihrer Geschichte zu leugnen und auszulöschen.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“I mean science, as an institution, is interested in gaining the power — to gain control over the world — to be able to gain control over diseases, over the human body, over the environment, over rivers and animals and forests. You have to submit a grant to somebody to fund, it all comes down to money, in many cases. It’s also an institution- If you’re a freelance scientist, you just explore the truth. Okay. But in an institution, a university, you need money to finance so you submit a…
“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…
“At any given moment there is an orthodoxy, a body of ideas which it is assumed all right-thinking people will accept without question. It is not exactly forbidden to state this or that or the other, but it is “not done”… Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing, either in the popular press or in the highbrow periodicals.” George Orwell “Zu jedem Zeitpunkt gibt es eine Orthodoxie, eine Reihe von Ideen, von denen man…
“For the great majority of mankind are satisfied with appearances, as though they were realities, and are often more influenced by the things that seem than by those that are.” Niccolò Machiavelli “Denn die große Mehrheit der Menschen begnügt sich mit dem Schein, als ob er die Wirklichkeit wäre, und lässt sich oft mehr von den scheinbaren als von den wirklichen Dingen beeinflussen.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“What is a president, then? He is the mouthpiece of the corporations – and nothing else. [….] We are no longer a democracy. We gave up our constitution long ago. [….] The modern dictatorship doesn’t come with brown or black uniforms. We do it with entertainment, with television, with fun, fun. And an education that dumbs down.” Gore Vidal, US-amerikanischer Schriftsteller und Politiker, „Stern“ Nr. 36/2000 “Was ist denn ein Präsident? Er ist das Sprachrohr der Konzerne – und sonst gar nichts. [….] Wir sind keine Demokratie mehr. Wir haben…

You can only be free if I am free. ” Clarence Darrow (war ein amerikanischer Anwalt, Mitglied der American Civil Liberties Union und ein Gegner der Todesstrafe.) “Du kannst deine Freiheiten in dieser Welt nur schützen, indem du die Freiheit des anderen schützt. Du kannst nur frei sein, wenn ich frei bin.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“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…
“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.” George Orwell “Die Menschen erkennen nicht, dass bei Befürwortung totalitärer Methoden die Zeit kommen kann, in denen sie gegen statt für einen eingesetzt werden.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty.

Jahrhunderts, England, 1872 – 1970). “Angst ist die Hauptquelle des Aberglaubens und eine der Hauptquellen der Grausamkeit.

“Propaganda is to a democracy what the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state.” Noam Chomsky, Media Control: The Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda “Propaganda ist für eine Demokratie das, was der Knüppel für einen totalitären Staat ist.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
“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…
“The Masonic Movement when it can be divorced from politics and social ends and from its present paralyzing condition of inertia, will meet the need of those who can, and should, wield power. It is the custodian of the law; it is the home of the Mysteries and the seat of initiation. It holds in its symbolism the ritual of Deity, and the way of salvation is pictorially preserved in its work. The methods of Deity are demonstrated in its Temples, and under the All-seeing Eye the work can go…
“I buy the FAZ on paper – and read NZZ, Spiegel and Bild online before the paywall. But I am just as informed as if I had subscribed to it. When I see the headline and the author, I already know what the text says. I also know who among the authors is currently behind with their alimony payments and therefore has to write in a certain direction.” Harald Schmidt, 63, ist Schauspieler, Autor und früherer TV-Moderator („Die Harald Schmidt Show“). “Ich kaufe die FAZ auf Papier – und lese…

“I’m known for my irony. But the idea of erecting a Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor would not have occurred to even me.” George Bernard Shaw “Ich bin bekannt für meine Ironie.

“The Anarchists are right in everything; in the negation of the existing order and in the assertion that, without Authority there could not be worse violence than that of Authority under existing conditions. They are mistaken only in thinking that anarchy can be instituted by a violent revolution. But it will be instituted only by there being more and more people who do not require the protection of governmental power and by there being more and more people who will be ashamed of applying this power.” Lew Nikolajewitsch Graf Tolstoi…
“And last: devilish is he who erects the kingdom of lies and forces other people to live in it. This still goes beyond the humiliation of spiritual separation, then the kingdom of the perverse world is erected, and the Antichrist wears the mask of the Savior (…). The devil is not the slayer, he is Diabolos, the slanderer, is the ‘God’ in whom the lie is not cowardice, as in man, but domination. He spills the last resort of despair, the knowledge, he instigates the realm of madness, because it…
“Ideology is what is still holding the whole system together and when that is no longer there…. When people really wake up and realize that they are being held in a mental prison by mental dwarfs, that power dwindles exponentially fast and that is where we are headed. Everything is based on mental, moronic, anti-nature and anti-people concepts. A positive development, however, is that it is becoming more and more transparent.” Alexander Wagandt “Die Ideologie ist das, was das ganze System noch zusammen hält und wenn das nicht mehr vorhanden…
“Once a nation parts with the control of its currency and credit, it matters not who makes the nations laws. Usury, once in control, will wreck any nation. Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most sacred responsibility, all talk of the sovereignty of parliament and of democracy is idle and futile.” William Lyon Mackenzie King (1874-1950 | Premierminister von Kanada) “Sobald sich eine Nation von der Kontrolle über ihre Währung und ihren Kredit trennt, spielt es keine Rolle…
“The fact that so many successful politicians are such shameless liars is not only a reflection on them, it is also a reflection on us. When the people want the impossible, only liars can satisfy.” Thomas Sowell, amerikanischer Philosoph “Die Tatsache, dass so viele erfolgreiche Politiker solch schamlose Lügner sind, sagt nicht nur etwas über sie aus, sondern auch über uns. Wenn Menschen das Unmögliche wollen, dann werden nur Lügner genügen.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…
