    Yup….Hilarious. Institutes using Modern science institutes like MIT, Johns Hopkins, Cornel are the most trust worthy source for all science based endeavors including NASA which btw depends upon climate research by these and other dedicated sources. Ministry of truth ? What a laugh. Geo. Orwell..it’s all fiction.

    Germany is turning to its darker past.
    2025 Looks Bleak For Germany…Energy The Most Expensive In Europe …Growing Speech Tyranny
    By P Gosselin on 1. January 2025

    2025 in Germany will be a year more energy inflation and loss a free speech rights

    Effective today, Germany’s CO2 surcharge will rise from 45 euros a tonne to 55 euros, which will further fan inflation and social discontent.

    Already Germany’s electricity prices are among the highest in the world, and the most expensive in Europe:

    Germany clamps down on dissenters, free speech

    But 2025 will not be am easy year for dissenters and critics of the government, as this is increasingly being criminalized in Germany thanks recently passed laws and acts that aim to suppress free speech in Germany.

    The former head Germany’s Constitution Protection Authority (Bundesverfassungsschutz), Thomas Haldenwang (CDU Party), suggested last February when presenting measures to fight right-wing extremism, that human thoughts and speech patterns need to be under surveillance and become the business of the government: “It’s also about shifting verbal and mental boundaries. We have to be careful that thought and language patterns don’t become embedded in our language.”

    Mocking the state now verboten

    Haldenwang’s boss, Federal Minister of the Interior Nancy Faeser (SPD Party), wants to treat vocal conservative protesters in the same way as organized crime groups: “Those who mock the state must deal with a strong state.”

    “We want to take account of the fact that hate on the internet also occurs below the threshold of criminal liability,”said Federal Minister for Family Affairs Lisa Paus (Greens) at her press conference on February 13 on the topic of ‘Hate on the Internet’.“Many enemies of democracy know exactly what falls under freedom of expression on social media platforms,”

    Meant by “enemies of democracy” here are opposition forces, even when democratically elected.

    Unwanted election results may be annulled

    In response to comments in favor of the conservative made by Elon Musk, German President Frank Walter Steinmeier hinted he would annul the results of the upcoming February 23 national elections if he doesn’t like the results.

    So in Germany, it’s watch what you say and, if the old parties don’t like the election results, then they might just well annul them. Germany is slipping back quickly to darker times.

    Happy New Year to the rest of you!

    It is ironic that a few decades after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the unification of Germany by incorporating East Germany into a democratic state with free speech that now unified Germany is trending back into East Germany.

    Happy New Year as well. Hopefully bizarro world will start back on the right track.

    From a book review on “Eco-fascism” by Janet Biehle - 1995

    “The reappearance of fascism in many western countries threatens all the freedoms the left movements have managed to gain over the last half century. Equally disconcerting is the attempt by fascist ideologists and political groups to use ecology in the service of social reaction. This effort is not without long historical roots in Germany, both in its nineteenth-century romanticism and in the Third Reich in the present century. In order to preserve the liberatory aspects of ecology, the authors, as social ecologists, explore the German experience of fascism and derive from it historical lessons about the political use of ecology. Comprised of two essays—"Fascist Ideology: The Green Wing of the Nazi Party and its Historical Antecedents" and "Ecology and the Modernization of Fascism in the German Ultra-Right,"—Ecofascism examines aspects of German fascism, past and present, in order to draw essential lessons from them for ecology movements both in Germany and elsewhere.”
