Do We Need Fools? – Quote by Georg Schramm
“Do we even need these demotivated, disillusioned secondary school dropouts for growth? No! Every DAX corporation proves in its quarterly report that the fewer of such poorly qualified people they have, the greater the growth. No, we only need them as consumers. And if we only need them as consumers, then a fair amount of stupidity can only be helpful. Maybe we are breeding them!
Just think about it for a moment, then all the contradictions dissolve; although the anger grows even greater, the intellectual confusion subsides!
[…] And what does that mean in a country where poverty is currently exploding? That they are breeding a solid class of idiots.
[…] Also, the consumer centers, maybe even in your federal state, are having their funds cut. Not a wrong decision either. Why? Well, the rabble shouldn’t think, hesitate, or compare. They should buy the first piece of rubbish offered during the commercial break.
[…] We need idiots; otherwise no one would eat spoiled meat.”
Georg Schramm

Terrorism and Climate Change – Yuval Noah Harari
“Terrorism kills a handful of people and you have all the governments and millions of people terrified from it. Climate change can kill not a handful of people but millions upon millions of people and we should place climate change far above terrorism in our list of problems.”
Yuval Noah Harari
Gabriele Krone-Schmalz on Image Authenticity and Modern Technology
“And with the technical possibilities available nowadays – which are truly gigantic – no one can say for sure whether something is really as it is presented. In the past, when I was still young, one could – within limits – still rely on the authenticity of images. Not anymore today! Today, there are even techniques that allow you to insert things that aren’t there and make things that are there disappear during live broadcasts. I happen to know this very well because this patent was developed at the TU Ilmenau, and I sit on the university council there.”

Roland Baader: No State Without Domination
“Anyone who talks about a “liberal state” or even a “constitutional state” misunderstands reality: There is no state without domination. There are only states based on power – and the question is how many freedoms they allow at any given time out of opportunism.”
Roland Baader
