Do you also feel under pressure?

Do you also feel under pressure?

There is pressure to confess everywhere, and you can no longer demonstrate peacefully against right-wing extremists without government politicians joining in the protest with their big asses - how are you supposed to rebel against the machine when the machine brazenly joins in the rage?

Are you worried that the shift to the right won't be combated with high-quality satire slogans like "Nazis secretly eat kebabs"? Or do you think that a new 1933 can be prevented with banners full of pee-poo jokes?

Do you believe, like Christian Lindner, that the farmers' protest is more legitimate than that of the climate glue because it hurts less? Do you also think that it is a tribute to the Brandenburg Gate to park in front of it? Do you buy regionally? Have you ever donated to a farmer? Would you like to donate a throat candy to Christian Lindner? Or just a pack of clozapine?

Is it actually a conspiracy theory to assume that every protest movement is infiltrated?

What does the third world war do to you, coming or not coming, depending on what sells better? Have you ever wondered what's so great about Poland that Putin supposedly wants to invade there so much? Do you ever find yourself having dark thoughts when you hear helicopter propellers in the sky at night? Is a German who shouts "Slava Ukraine" engaging in cultural appropriation of a foreign patriotism? Does the right to defense go hand in hand with a duty of support? Is it just propaganda when the enemy makes it? Or is it also propaganda when Zelenskyy says that Germany should have its own weapons Would it be better to deliver them to Ukraine, because in a direct confrontation with Russia the same weapons would no longer be of any use to Germany later?

Would you go to Markus Lanz if he invited you?

These are times when you would do well to back off and keep your mouth shut. Perhaps this is the difference between the clumsy barker and the speaker of powerful words that resonate even without volume: the understanding of when no answer is also an answer. And that refusal is always polite rebellion.

It's nice that you're here to start the first revolution with us, which is not driven by explosive actions, but by leaning back thoughtfulness - where "retirement" is a rock in the surf in the raging river. Anyone who wants to stand still, come with us .
