Democracy at the breaking point
Yes, there are two so-called great friends who have talked for hundreds of hours and basically have the same opinion. But what does that have to do with America or democracy, you ask yourself. It's not about two insignificant men but about the two absolute rulers of two huge countries, XI and Putin. Both are of the opinion that the time of democracies as the best form of government is over and that America and the West should now relinquish their claim to leadership to China and its allies. Both of these states have begun to dismantle our democracies through disinformation and propaganda. They are supporting all the forces of suggestion, whether left or right, in order to drive a wedge into society and thus damage democracy and cause it to be questioned by the population. They do this openly or covertly by spreading other narratives, as I like to call them. A narrative of those up there, a narrative that facts are not true, a narrative of the powerlessness of the individual, a narrative of false facts just to make democracy capable of acting. In which unrest, resentment, disenchantment with democracy and sideshows are created so that they can realise their goals. And they are simply to increase their claim to power in the world in order to maintain the existing unjust systems in every form. China is a sleeping dragon for as long as it is useful to XI, the absolute ruler. The allies XI and putin are unequal allies, one is the powerful and prudent XI and the other rather the imprudent putin, but far from it, both have eliminated all forces in their states that could be dangerous to them without scruples. Putin the entire opposition and the democracy movement and XI the internal opponents in his party. One with extreme violence and the other with the pretext of fighting corruption.
All propaganda and false reports that are in the interests of the two are broadcast to the world in order to secure their future and spread their "values" around the world. They are both narcissists and do not tolerate any criticism. Russia uses extremely harsh measures and does not even shy away from murder. China uses a perversely perfect population surveillance system with a punitive Algerian IT system which controls the population perfectly.
These two absolute rulers have only one goal: to destroy the world order that emerged after the Second World War with the USA's claim to leadership as the world police force. They are doing this at all levels, whether in the UN or at all other political levels, as well as at all suggestive levels such as the Internet.
That is why Trump can win, they have managed to light the fuse in large parts of the free world so that the democracies disintegrate themselves.
Rulers and parts...... that means nothing less than using all forces to destroy the unity of the West and its internal social unity in order to then occupy the free spaces that the democracies can no longer deal with because they are only concerned with themselves. In addition, Chinese companies are acquiring more and more economic influence in Western societies in the name of the Communist Party, i.e. in the name of XI, and thus ultimately securing the silence of those responsible in politics and business. The voluntary muzzle, favourite justification in the case of China, within Chinese affairs, even when it comes to democratic Taiwan.
AS A DEMOCRACY, WE MUST START TELLING THE BETTER STORIES AND STAND UP WHEREVER INJUSTICE IS INVOLVED. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO SECURE OUR INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM AND THUS THE FREEDOM OF EQUALITY IN DEMOCRACY.
when trump announced america first, he was already starting to pave the way for china and russia's influence in the world, because wherever america withdraws from world affairs, a vacuum is created which is filled by less democratic forces.
AMERICA MUST BE CAREFUL THAT IT DOES NOT TURN ITS OWN DEMOCRATISATION INTO A LOBBYOCRACY THAT BENEFITS ONLY A FEW SHOULD THAT BE THE CASE AT SOME POINT, CHINA'S SYSTEM HAS FRIGHTENINGLY BECOME AN ALTERNATIVE FOR MANY OF THOSE LEFT BEHIND.

The one who does not confuse freedom with his own freedom but with the freedom of those who think differently from him and are also rooted in the democratic system.
Only together are we strong and on this basis we must constantly renegotiate the rules to make our democracies fairer for all of us and not just in favour of individual groups in society.
I love democracy and I am annoyed by it, but I can participate in it and help shape it, criticise it and it doesn't make me disappear or kill me. So out there, what have you not understood about the freedom of all, do you really want that no matter what criticism you have made of the system, the moment you criticise it you are afraid that you will disappear or even be eliminated.
Stop beating your opposites about the ears and look for what you have in common. This is the only way to make systems that are truly connected to the freedom of the individual strong.
Tell your story of freedom in democracy. Democracy always means the freedom of all and not the freedom of ideas of individual groups.
A wise man once said to me, mod in bad there is no good!
You have to be able to endure democracy because only through the process of debate can the best possible results be achieved in a compromise for the prosperity of all.
Republicans need to be panicking because their forerunner for President is going to prison
Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.
George Orwell
Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.
George Orwell
These two slogans are key approaches to declassifying anti-democratic systems
China and Russia are not the friends of Western values and the freedom of the basic democratic order of our free countries.
Russia has already shown its ugly face, China will have to show its ugly face involuntarily if XI enforces its unlegitimised claim to Taiwan by force.
Historically, China has no claim to taiwan, it was already inhabited by various indigenous ethnic groups long before any colonial power set foot on it. But what does XI care about history when it can go down in the Chinese history books?

It cannot be that war crimes are not prosecuted and someone who has provided a platform to reveal them to the world public is prosecuted and punished.

To make it clear once again whoever publishes war crimes is not a perpetrator!
The question should be were the war criminals in this helicopter held accountable?
A state and no matter which one protects the murderers in its army has no moral compass and has a great humanity deficit.
Due to the following scenes in the movie can be disturbing for sensitive people.
WikiLeaks, a website that publishes anonymously sourced documents, has released a video showing what apparently is a US military helicopter firing at unarmed civilians in Iraq. WikiLeaks said the footage, filmed from a helicopter cockpit, shows a missile strike and shooting on a square in a Baghdad neighbourhood in July 2007. The website said 12 civilians were killed in the attack, including two journalists, Namir Nour El Deen and Saeed Chmagh, who worked for the Reuters news agency. This is the full, unedited version of the footage.
Anyone with a moral compass knows that there is no secret betrayal when it comes to war crimes.
Any law system that treats the other is inherently wrong and does not serve equality but only state interests.

A country for old men.
Who would have thought that you would call a coup after a regular election and not be imprisoned or even shot! No, instead you get to reach for power again and stand for election.
Just imagine if the film hero had instigated a coup d'état based on his ability to lie constantly, sexism was his daily business and deception and fraud his modus operandi coupled with homophobia and racist insinuations. Think the film would be a flop..... but wow in reality no problem.
What is wrong in a country when the poor and religious people believe that the devil's right hand is the saviour?

This type of leader appears everywhere in history and is always extremely destructive",
Do not sin when you become angry! The sun must not set on your anger! Give the devil no place in you!
Ephesians 4:26-27
Because, of course, Satan does not arrive "in person". He has his servants - and they can use wise words - mixed with a little bit of poison. And already their whole message is poisoned! Again, it was the apparent wisdom of the Corinthians that made them impervious to these attacks from the devil. They honoured people as apostles who were in reality false workers, false apostles, servants of the devil. If they had exchanged the wisdom of this world for the wisdom of God, they would have remained "simple-minded towards Christ". And that alone would have preserved them, because they would have recognised that Satan looked like an angel of light on the outside, but that the voice of the good shepherd did not speak from him. In truth, this light is darkness - and corrupts our attitude, our thoughts and our way of life.
I find it fascinating that the basic attitude towards alternative lifestyles of religious people in American society drives them right into the hands of the servants.
There is no freedom without the freedom of those who think differently.
Anyone who claims to have freedom in mind and then only stands up for the freedoms he considers important is ultimately the coffin nail of everyone's freedom.

The world, or rather the societies of this world, are undergoing a shift to the right.
Why? Somehow easy to understand without considering the consequences and these will follow in inevitable ways and effects. But back to the simple, yes this world and by that I mean the world of man and his perception is too complicated, too complex with all its dependencies. There are all the facts, the science and the effects that cry out for change.
However, this is the inertia of knowledge and the comfort of everyone, why change when things are somehow not really bad.
You can maintain your status, can't you?
And that's exactly what the right-wing parties understand and somehow say that everything should stay as it is. Or best to bring out the concepts of the good old days. With the manslaughter argument (which ultimately says nothing) everything wasn't bad.
OFFER SIMPLY SOLUTIONS TO COMPLEX PROBLEMS.
PLUS DIVIDE SOCIETY SOMEHOW SOMEONE HAS TO BE TO BLAME FOR THE MISERY.
Hate as an ideology
You really think that a strong hand can fix everything.
Because they just don't want to take responsibility for their lives. That means they would have to think and deal with all the real facts.
The consumer wants to consume and have a job so that he is well off. What do they care about others from whom they have been torn apart by all the propaganda.
All the others are to blame for the loss of prosperity, but not those who are at the top of the food chain in your country.
People who are so rich that you can't even imagine it. The rich and big companies will be fine with the right wing, they will come to terms with them as they have so often in history. Even benefit themselves.
The only problem is that when the spit is over and social development is in ruins, it really wasn't anyone again.
They will all have run away and confess, as so often in history: we didn't see this coming and if we had known, we would have decided differently.
Eat dust you hypocrites.

Have no backbone, take no responsibility and think you're just a nice fellow human being who only meant well.
That's the better idea of absolutely irresponsible managers, courts and other gun fetish vending machines that give out ammunition in exchange for a money card and an ID check, even with face recognition. (Well that helps to identify the killer right after the killing rampage).
Who wants to carry a lot of ammunition with them when they can buy it at the crime scene?
Buying a lot of ammunition in a gun store might make someone suspicious, but it's not like anyone wants to look in the supermarket when the young man dressed in black with the strained face is stocking up on ammunition.
Hello, I would like to have a few cigarettes and where is the ammunition machine? Was the testimony of the lone survivor when the officer asked him can you say what you saw or heard before the rampage started.
We have nothing against guns for the simple reason that the ones that are in circulation can no longer be taken away from dysfunctional people. But new weapons should only be issued with a mental aptitude test and a suitable background check.
What's the problem terrorists from abroad also get a background check before they can enter the US to stop them.
Well now comes the sad truth: fellow Americans kill more people at home than terrorists ever did.
Ammunition vending machines have no place in supermarkets, or what's next - schools, movie theaters, gas stations, hospitals, churches?
The lazy asses should drive to their weapons supermarkets - it's much more masculine!
Really now ammunition with baby diapers if then we want to be able to buy everything there! Weed, porn literature, sex toys of course from vending machines with ID check!

You really don't have to fulfill every wish of the weapons industry when the heads of many politicians are already up to their necks in the ass of the weapons industry, oh well then we understand it with so much darkness you can no longer see reality.
Just imagine for a moment that we could all enjoy such a beautiful habitat that provides us with all the resources we need! Unfortunately, there are some people who stand in the way of this wonderful possibility. These individuals have big ambitions and an addiction to meaningless big-manism. But we can overcome them!

What is noteworthy is the tendency to focus on past experiences in a world facing future challenges that can only be addressed collectively.
The increasing nationalism is a clear sign that humanity is ready to not learn from history! It's time to make sure we don't end up in the next catastrophe for humanity.
Please don't say you didn't know or see it – it was right in front of you and you're ready to make a change!

The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information.
Henry A. Wallace
Lies are becoming the truth. This is the age of disinformation.
Populists and right-wingers use propaganda, misinformation, and distortion of facts. This is also used by dictators.
The world is flooded with lies to gain and hold power. And they don't compromise with anyone who disrupts them. Human rights and equality are a waste of time. Those who don't fit the world picture are deported, imprisoned, sentenced, and locked away. Based on the exceptions indicated by those in power, martial law can be imposed.
Power is seized,
the state is reorganized,
crises are created at home,
threats are made, and people are purged.
The seizure of power is consolidated through intolerance, and all state positions will be filled anew.
Wow, the Third Reich is back, didn't the Americans sacrifice their sons to get rid of it?
