Health dictatorship without diseases
In the future, the WHO could order the total subjugation of society on the mere suspicion of a risk of epidemic.
There
is nothing new under the sun. Even a quarantine for practically the
entire population, proclaimed by the authorities – including control
excesses and a collective neurosis of fear that is stirred up – is not
an invention of the 21st century. Even
in the Middle Ages, during the plague, and during the Napoleonic
occupation in the 19th century, reasonably liberal societies quickly
turned into authoritarian states administered with extreme brutality
when it suited the political plans of the rulers. Power is only too
happy to play on the fears of the subjects. However, we can also draw
inspiration from history on how citizens can effectively counter such
impositions. We should be prepared when the WHO, which has been given historically unique powers, starts to tighten the screws.

With
its new Kafkaesque definition of a "pandemic", the World Health
Organization (WHO) is indirectly admitting that "pandemics" are not
natural phenomena. Otherwise, one could use real clusters of infectious
diseases as a basis. However, it is now sufficient to have a "risk" of
an infection occurring in several countries to declare a state of
emergency.
No one has to be sick to turn the world into a quarantine prison. Brave new world that gives birth to such madness!
By
now, it should be clear to every inhabitant of the planet that a
"pandemic" is not a medical term, but a weapon. The author Ludwig Börne
(1786-1837) recognized this as early as 1830, when the first cholera
epidemic was declared in Paris:
"By
the time the frightened people come to their senses again, the old
chains will have been riveted anew, the sickroom will remain a prison
after recovery, and twenty years of freedom will be lost." (1)
The
19th century then became the century of cholera, because the
aristocratic elites saw themselves threatened by the French Revolution
of 1789 and the bourgeois emancipation that followed Napoleon's
campaigns. Since then, recurring health threats have been part of the
threatening backdrop of the ruling classes.
Even then, communities switched to the authoritarian mode by
declaring a threat of an epidemic. Uniformed people appeared and imposed
bans under the threat of draconian punishments. To this day, alleged
health emergencies provide a justification for military operations
against the population.
"Corona
generals" were deployed in camouflage uniforms. If not only the sick
are now being turned into the enemy, but everyone who could become sick,
then everyone is meant. Under the guise of protecting health, we are
all becoming subjects. Unlike the serfs of feudal society, everyone is
now even supposed to lose their body as property. Vaccination death will
thus be as exempt from punishment as the murder of a slave by a
nobleman.
It
was no coincidence that the first alleged pandemic was circulated from
1347 onwards, when the Catholic papal church had laid claim to all
inhabitants of the earth:
"We
declare, then, that all human creatures, by losing their souls, must be
subject to the Pope in Rome, and we tell them and decree it." (2)
As
a result, there were more cities with entries of a plague in the city
chronicles than actual epidemics. After all, the city histories were
written and archived by monks, often retrospectively.
Since
then, there has been a close alliance between the church and secular
rulers. In 1348, the French king immediately had a "plague report" drawn
up and distributed, even though the experts did not yet know the
disease and only a risk of the occurrence of diseases had been announced
by a single man, the Pope in Avignon. Now, too, a person without
medical knowledge is again to be authorized to conjure up a health
hazard... History may not repeat itself, but it rhymes.
However, the past also has the recipe for dealing with unscrupulous
subjugation. A personal physician to the Bohemian king declared: "not to
speak of the plague, nor to think of it." In Bohemia, the plague then
usually stayed away.
In
the centuries that followed, epidemics in what is now the Czech
Republic were also less common than elsewhere in the German Empire. Many
autonomous trading cities such as Milan or Bruges also refused to
participate and remained plague-free. The first plague was usually a
paper event for the history books, like Covid-19. All the details can be
found in the expanded and illustrated new edition of our classic book
on epidemics, Hauptsache Panik.
The
blueprint of the plague has been used ever since. When the credibility
was worn out, only the name and the disease had to be changed. The
"plague" disappeared in the 17th century to make way for smallpox,
before it was replaced by cholera from 1830. Since
the end of the 19th century, it has been influenza that has been used
to keep people in check: from the "Russian" to the "Spanish" flu, from
the "Hong Kong" flu to "Covid-19".
Universities,
as supposed centers of learning, were an essential prerequisite for the
hoax to work. Until the 14th century, the West was "too rural, too
fragmented, too uneducated to be receptive to intensive propaganda."
Only now "has it become urbanized and has an educated elite that is
growing in number and importance." The
new class of academics, who were brought into position to replace the
educated Jews, went through unworldly scholastic courses of study
characterized by Christian fear and an apocalyptic mood.
A society can only be taken over by irrational fears of disease with
an educated upper class that is increasingly out of touch with nature.
State and municipal law enforcement officers, clergy, doctors, lawyers
and, of course, the mentally destabilized people themselves then ensure
that the subjugation is carried out.
For 500 years, we have been able to read the antidote to "pandemics" in Etienne de la Boethie's "Voluntary Submission":
"What
could (the authorities) do to you if you were not the accomplices of
the robbers who rob you, the accomplices of the murderers who kill you?
(...) Be determined not to be servants any more and you will be free. If
you do not support your oppressor, then you will see that he, like a
giant colossus, will collapse under his own weight and fall to pieces."

An outrageous violation
Hearing
aids are being foisted on us at every opportunity – and this could be
preparing the way for a new level of total surveillance, as well as
being a commercial consideration.
Muzzle or opinion? War or peace? We need the BSW!
With
one-sided reporting and commentary, and even defamation, the public
broadcasting service contributes to a climate in which many expressions
of opinion are disparaged and marginalized. And in which, on the other
hand, people are constantly being treated to new and absurd dogmas such
as gender language and abstruse gender ideology – and woe betide them if
they don't go along with it! According
to a study by the Allensbach Institute, only 40% of people in Germany
believe that they are free to express their opinions. This is alarming.
Only the BSW is fighting against this paternalism and restriction of
diversity of opinion, while, for example, the Left Party has long since
defected to the green-liberal opinion cartel. Anyone
who criticized measures during the corona pandemic or did not want to
be vaccinated was considered a "whiner". Anyone who wants to end the war
in Ukraine through peace negotiations instead of more and more weapons
is considered a Putin friend – and that also applies to Die Linke.
Anyone who wants a ceasefire for Gaza is even considered anti-Semitic.
The BSW has declared war on this culture of debate.
The "global" energy transition is made in China
Clean energy
By Adam Tooze
[This article posted on June 11, 2024 is translated from the German on the Internet,
https://makroskop.eu/20-2024/die-globale-energiewende-ist-made-in-china/.]
In
May 2024, Ember, a clean energy think tank, published a global overview
of electricity generation. The report is a triumph of data collection –
and heralds a historic turning point.
The
key to the new energy system being built around the world is
electrification. Power generation is a process that we know how to
decarbonize. With concerted action, net-zero power generation is within
reach in OECD countries by the 2030s and for the world by 2045. Furthermore,
as Ember emphasizes, electrification will "replace the combustion of
fossil fuels currently used in car and bus engines, boilers, stoves and
other applications".
Green
electrification is the future. By 2023, according to the Ember report,
almost all new electricity demand will be met by the expansion of
renewable energy, especially solar energy. Although global electricity
demand increased, fossil fuel generation barely increased. The expansion
of solar and wind energy alone was enough to meet 82 percent of new
electricity demand.
This
is nothing new in rich countries. In the OECD countries, the growth in
demand for electricity is only weak or even negative, while investments
in renewable energies have been made for two decades. It is surprising
that this is now happening even at the global level, where the demand
for electrical energy is growing inexorably.
Ember expects this trend to intensify this year. In
2024, demand growth is expected to be higher than in the previous year
(plus 968 TWh), but so too is the forecast for clean energy generation
(plus 1300 TWh), which will result in a 2 percent decline in global
fossil fuel power generation (minus 333 TWh).
According
to Ember, the turning point could have been reached as early as 2023 if
hydroelectric power generation had not been severely affected by the
drought. The low water levels in the reservoirs led to a decline in
clean energy capacity. This prompted several countries to switch to
coal-fired power plants.
Triumph of data collection
Ember's
fifth annual Global Electricity Review is a triumph of data collection.
The report provides the first comprehensive overview of changes in
global electricity generation in 2023 based on reported data. It
presents the underlying trends and likely impacts on energy sources and
emissions in the electricity sector in the near future. With
the report, Ember also releases the first comprehensive, free dataset
on global electricity generation in 2023. It analyzes electricity data
from 215 countries, including the latest 2023 data for 80 countries
covering 92 percent of global electricity demand. The analysis also
includes data for 13 geographic and economic groupings, such as Africa,
Asia, the EU and the G7.
This
remarkable collage of data streams allows us to map the uneven and
combined development of the energy transition around the world. As Ember
reports, the expansion of clean energy generation – led by solar and
wind energy – has already helped to slow the growth of fossil fuels by
almost two-thirds over the past decade. As
a result, half of the world's economies have already passed their peak
in fossil fuel power generation at least five years ago. OECD countries
are at the forefront of this: emissions from the power sector peaked in
2007 and have since fallen by 28 percent.
But
the Ember report says that the decisive development is not taking place
in the OECD countries. Talk of "the global" world is a smokescreen. In
reality, there is one country that dominates the entire dynamics of the
energy transition: "China is the main driver of global growth in
electricity demand," according to Ember's data. "China's
rapid growth (plus 606 TWh, plus 6.9 percent) was only 21 TWh lower
than the global net increase. The second largest contribution came from
India's growth (plus 99 TWh, plus 5.4 percent)."
Until
the 2010s, China met its insatiable demand for new energy with
coal-fired power plants. The painfully slow energy transition in
industrialized countries would never have been enough to compensate for
this. But even if the US and the EU had taken more drastic measures,
China's growth was simply too big and too dirty. If
the world is now reaching a tipping point in the balance between fossil
and clean energy production, it is thanks to China, whose investments
in renewable energy have increased enormously. In 2023, China alone
accounted for more than half of the world's new wind and solar energy
capacity.
This
development has been observed for several years. As Ember reports,
China's energy dynamics dominate all global trends. China's growth in
coal-fired power generation (plus 1,670 TWh) has been stronger than the
global total increase since 2015, as coal-fired power generation in the
US and other countries declined significantly during the same period. In
the three decades between 1990 and 2020, China has carried out an
industrial revolution of global proportions with such intensity that it
has completely dominated global energy growth.
But
since 2015, the country has also launched a gigantic green energy
offensive that is overshadowing everything else globally. Between 2015
and 2023, China contributed almost half (47 percent, 700 TWh) of the
global growth in wind energy and 40 percent (545 TWh) of the increase in
solar power generation.
These are the figures behind the four-quadrant view of the global energy transition that I have been promoting for some time:
The
four boxes in this diagram describe quantitatively very unequal energy
transitions. The increasing demand for electricity in India and the
emerging markets (bottom right) is offset by the gradual decline in
industrialized countries (top left). Africa's demographic development
(bottom left) is dramatic, but has little or no direct impact on the
global carbon footprint. The result is that the entire "global" drama is actually taking place in China.
And,
as Ember emphasizes, the drama of green electrification is only just
beginning. It is one thing to replace dirty power generation for
existing applications with solar and wind energy. It is another to
expand the entire power grid to meet the new electricity demand in the
areas of data processing, transportation, households and industry.
China is way ahead of the rest of the world
The
scale of this transformation can be measured by the proportion of new
electricity demand that is driven by new types of electricity
consumption, such as electric vehicles. Again, Ember's data leaves no
doubt that China is way ahead of the rest of the world and leading the
way in electrolysis capacity. By
2023, China's electricity demand from the charging and battery-swapping
service industry will increase by 78 percent, adding an estimated 56
TWh to the country's total electricity demand – three and a half times
more than the rest of the world.
Yes,
you read that right. Measured by electricity consumption, the
electrification of road transport in China is 3.5 times greater than in
the rest of the world. This is the EV revolution that is causing so much
concern in the West.
While
China accounts for 60 percent of light electric vehicle sales, this
segment represents only an estimated 18 TWh of the 56 TWh increase in
demand. The rest comes from electric vans, trucks, buses and
two-wheelers, which China dominates worldwide. It is also the largest
heat pump market in the world, with more installations per year than any
other country. Electrolysers,
which are used mainly in demonstration plants by chemical and
petrochemical companies, have also grown faster in China than in the
rest of the world. As a result, China accounted for 50 percent of global
electrolyser capacity in 2023.
But, as Ember notes, this process of using electricity for new purposes is only just beginning.
In
China, too, electrification is still in its infancy. Only one-fifth of
the growth in Chinese electricity demand in 2023 (124 TWh out of 606
TWh) came from the three electrification technologies, but this share
will increase over time. These
technologies increased China's electricity demand by 1.4 percent in
2023, compared to 1.1 percent in 2022. In the rest of the world,
electrification increased electricity demand by 0.25 percent in 2022 and
0.28 percent in 2023. As
China continues to accelerate the deployment of key electrification
technologies and the world continues to catch up, the contribution of
electrification will increase even further.
At
COP28 in 2023, many countries around the world committed to tripling
global renewable electricity capacity by 2030. This will make it
possible to almost halve emissions from the electricity sector by 2030,
as coal-fired power generation is replaced first. In
addition, enough new electricity will be provided to drive the
electrification of transport and the heating of households and
industrial operations, even though electricity demand has increased by
32 percent.
Experts around the world are surprised
China's
enormous surge in renewable energy has surprised experts around the
world. The International Energy Agency (IEA) has revised its forecasts
every year: from 2021 to 2022 to 2023, the IEA's accelerated scenario
predicted that annual increases would be 218 GW, 257 GW and 406 GW,
respectively. According
to the latest updates from China, the actual increases for 2023 are 444
GW, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF). To put the scale
of the increases in 2023 into context, annual increases in solar
capacity did not exceed 200 GW per year until 2022, which was itself a
record year.
In
other words, the enormous boom in solar energy in China has eclipsed
all previous experience of the expansion of renewable energies and is
now actually bringing the world close to a climate-neutral path driven
by green electricity.
*The figures for 2023 are based on the date of the estimate
In
2023, the amount of solar technology produced in China exceeded global
demand, with spot prices for modules falling by more than 50 percent in
the second half of the year and the number of domestic installations
continuing to rise. Prices for solar modules are now significantly lower
than would be expected given Wright's law of technological learning
curves. As
Chinese government loans have increasingly been diverted from the
residential sector to manufacturing, the Middle Kingdom is now
responsible for 80-85 percent of global solar module production.
We are witnessing the fastest spread of a major energy technology in history.
Energy transition vs. geopolitics
The
response of Western politicians? Protectionism. Of course, there are
complex motives. They need to build coalitions to sustain the energy
transition. They are worried about the regime of the Chinese Communist
Party. They want to escape extreme dependence on imported energy sources
(although, of course, in the field of renewable energy, they are not
importing energy, but capital goods).
But
the more fundamental question is: are Western governments and societies
willing to prioritize the energy transition if it is not their success
story? Or do other interests take precedence when the photovoltaic
modules and electric vehicles come from China?
As
far as the EU is concerned, a compromise can be seen to be emerging,
based on a balance between domestic and Chinese solutions to the energy
transition. As journalist Martin Sandbu noted, at least the possibility
of a major compromise exists.
In
the case of the United States, it is becoming increasingly clear that
the energy transition as such is a secondary issue. The priority is the
geopolitical confrontation and the struggle to form national coalitions.
This may be depressing, but as the Embers data clearly show, it is by
no means a decisive obstacle. The global energy transition will continue
regardless.
"No pandemic in our perception"
"In
2020, reality and the measures taken continued to diverge," says
Fabian, a firefighter from Berlin (a pseudonym, his identity is known to
the editorial team). However, after the start of the corona
vaccination, the number of rescue missions skyrocketed, according to the
officer. In
the Multipolar interview, he also describes disturbing details about
the work of Green Party politician Janosch Dahmen, one of the main
supporters of compulsory vaccination, who was also a senior physician in
the Berlin Fire Brigade's emergency medical services.
[This
interview posted on 6/12/2024 is translated from the German on the
Internet,
https://multipolar-magazin.de/artikel/keine-pandemie-in-unserer-wahrnehmung.]
Multipolar:
The Berlin Senate Department for the Interior confirms that the number
of calls for help for heart complaints in 2023 has risen by 56 percent
compared to the average for the pre-coronavirus years 2018/2019 – a
similar increase for stroke symptoms. How did you and your colleagues
perceive this in your daily work?
Fabian:
We noticed a change as early as 2021. Our colleagues noticed that there
was an increase in calls, especially for heart complaints and strokes,
which we couldn't explain. The control center also said: "Something is
wrong here." They
said that in the past, lay reanimation – when someone calls the control
center and is then accompanied through the reanimation by a colleague
from the fire brigade – was a rarity. But suddenly it was happening more
and more often. Reanimations have also increased, especially in 2021
and 2022. The clientele also shifted, becoming younger. Normally,
you would expect someone to ask: "What's going on? Why are we getting
more calls? Since that doesn't happen, you start to become critical
yourself. Among colleagues, stories like this are circulating: A mother
called the emergency hotline and reported "sudden bilateral loss of
vision" in a 12 or 13-year-old girl. The
colleague asked: "Has she taken drugs, drunk alcohol, fallen, hit her
head?" All negative. Young, athletic, no previous illnesses. And then
the older colleague gave the young colleague at the emergency call
center a slap on the back and said: "Ask the question." - "Is your
daughter vaccinated?" - "Yes, five days ago." No one can prove a connection, but too many coincidences are a pattern.
Multipolar: In your personal deployments, how many "coincidences" were there?
Fabian:
Of course, not hundreds of thousands of people who had been vaccinated
have dropped dead, but it was only in 2021 that we realized that
something was different, that something had changed in the deployment
situation. This is in contrast to 2020, when we were told that a
terrible virus was spreading here. I myself also believed it at first.
But I didn't notice anything at all. The
virus is, of course, particularly bad for patients with pre-existing
conditions and older patients. But at the time, we were told that it was
particularly bad and unique.
Multipolar: What exactly happened?
Fabian:
The type of deployments, the frequency of heart complaints, strokes,
unusual deployments where you say: "Why did this young man have a
stroke? There is no real reason at all. The frequency of these
coincidences is also noticed by colleagues, and then you start to wonder
about the vaccination status. There is a case at the Hamburg fire
brigade. One
of the first colleagues to be vaccinated is an HSV fan influencer,
which is why he is a bit more well-known. He had a stroke and initially
refused to say: "It's because of the vaccination." But then it was
impossible to ignore, and he said: "Yes, I had very severe side effects
with neurological deficits." He was one of the first to report it. We have colleagues all over Germany who are now reporting accidents to their employers after the vaccination.
Multipolar: And the conspicuous deployments could have something to do with the corona vaccination?
Fabian:
I can't prove it, but that's my impression. We also have the impression
that colleagues who were vaccinated, especially at the end of 2022 and
the beginning of 2023, became seriously ill with corona and then were
out of action for weeks. These were people who had never been ill
before. I did some research and looked around me to see who had never
had corona. At
the fire brigade, you always had to be tested when you started work. I
could see very clearly that I know more unvaccinated people who have
never had corona, i.e. who have never had a positive test, than those
who have been vaccinated. Of those who have been vaccinated, I only know
of two who have never had corona or a positive test. I
know more than a dozen of the unvaccinated, although there are far
fewer unvaccinated people in the fire brigade. Those who have been
vaccinated twice make up about 90 percent, the unvaccinated about 10
percent. The number of those who have been vaccinated three times is
then considerably lower.
Multipolar:
You are a member of the professional association
"feuerwehrGEMEINSCHAFT", which has spoken out on this and was founded at
the beginning of 2022 in opposition to compulsory vaccination. The
increase in massive problems in patients – such as stroke, heart
problems, resuscitation – in connection with the Covid vaccination: do
you want this to be seen when you draw attention to it?
Fabian:
No, that definitely doesn't want to be seen. The narrative is that
there is no connection and no abnormalities. I was surprised myself that
this feeling from the operations could be objectified with numbers
through these parliamentary inquiries, which are now also in the press.
This is consistent with other publications. And then of course you start
to become more critical, ask questions: someone must be interested in
this. It could happen to me too. If that's not true, what else isn't true?
Multipolar:
Back then, as was stated in an article in the Berliner Zeitung in 2022,
you had already made the demand: "The figures are on the table. It is
definitely a huge increase, it needs to be clarified." Has anything been
clarified?
Fabian:
Not to my knowledge. The colleagues who joined forces with us made this
demand. I was also surprised by the absurd answers given by the
authorities.
Multipolar: Like what?
Fabian:
It said: "With an increased number of commuters" – in 2021, when
everything was shut down, "with an increased number of guests, as well
as their length of stay, overnight stays in Berlin" – in 2021,
"an influx to Berlin", "an increasing number of large events" - in
2021. This was supposed to explain why we had such an increase in heart
complaints, strokes and reanimations. Because
of major events in 2021, although there were hardly any. "An increased
utilization of the emergency services due to influenza." According to
all the figures I know, influenza was strangely absent in 2021. And the
Senate Department for the Interior seriously justifies this with
influenza. "Decreasing
self-help ability of the population" – I don't know why people should
be less able to help themselves after a stroke. "Loss of quality due to a
lack of skilled workers" – a BlaBla argument. A strange way of arguing
when the Senate Administration for Internal Affairs seriously argues
that we had a lot to do in 2021 because a lot was happening outside. The hotels were empty! So it's a blatant lie.
Multipolar:
You noticed right at the beginning of the pandemic that things were
very different from usual. How were you informed about the events in the
fire brigade?
Fabian:
As soon as a team meets – specialists from the authority are brought
together to deal with the situation – you usually get an email to
everyone. That didn't happen. It was only afterwards that we realized
that a team had met on February 25, 2020. And it was only on March 10,
14 days later, that everyone was informed: "There is now a team." In
the meantime, it had grown larger and larger. Colleagues who were on
duty said it was a huge event. And, they said, it had never happened
before: parallel staffs. Normally, a fire brigade staff is formed where
everyone comes together and works together. But here there were suddenly
two, a rescue service staff led by Janosch Dahmen, and on the other
hand the fire brigade staff. The two have always been at each other's
throats in their competence and ability. It
was very unpleasant and extremely disturbing because not everyone was
working on the same thing, the colleagues tell each other.
Multipolar: What did the staff say, how should we proceed?
Fabian:
At the beginning, the information was very sparse, and at first it
wasn't that alarming. But then you heard through the grapevine what
figures were being circulated. In the staff area, they said at the
beginning of March 2020 that there would be 100,000 deaths in Berlin in
the next fifteen days. I
myself saw doctors from the fire brigade running around with rough
calculations: "There will be 2.8 million deaths in Germany during this
pandemic." – "What?" – "Yes, 70 percent infection among 80 million
people, 5 percent mortality. That's 2.8 million deaths in Germany. This
pandemic will be very bad." They spread panic because they obviously
believed it themselves. However,
this was not reflected in the operations in 2020. But there were
measures that were unprecedented. The training school for firefighters
was closed, there were no more further training courses. You could give
back your vacation. Anyone who said "I'm coming to work" was taken. We
built up massively. We had 15 percent more personnel in the entire fire
brigade.
Multipolar:
The staff announced that 100,000 people in Berlin were to die within
two weeks. What was the reality for you on the ground?
Fabian:
In reality, we had about 25 percent fewer calls, just as everything
started with the so-called Covid pandemic. So the number of calls
clearly decreased at the beginning. There was much more panic. We on the
watch felt March and April 2020 to be quite relaxing. Because,
as I said, we now had a lot more staff at the stations, due to all the
measures that were taken, with fewer deployments. The same picture
emerged in the hospitals. When you dropped off the patients in the
hospitals, you also spoke to the nurses: "What's the situation here?" They
couldn't stop laughing, they said: "Yes, we've had a lot of stress,
setting up additional intensive care units or creating the
organizational conditions, but in reality, keeping the beds free..."
There was no rush of patients. On the contrary, they said they could now
take vacation, reduce overtime. It was even considered to dismiss
part-time workers in the hospitals. The
nurses said: "We have a utilization rate here that is sometimes only 40
percent." You have to know that for a hospital to be economically
viable, the utilization rate has to be between 60 and 80 percent.
Multipolar: In addition, 20 clinics were closed in 2020.
Fabian:
Exactly. We also had an emergency clinic in Berlin, which we called the
"Brömmeklinik". Albrecht Brömme is a former state fire director, and
later became head of the German Federal Agency for Technical Relief
(THW). And he built a large emergency hospital here in Berlin in 2020,
at the exhibition center. They put a lot of energy, money and
organization into it. They really believed that the end was near. I
took a look at the Brömmeklinik. This hospital was designed for around
500 people, as a kind of overflow basin. But it was never used for a
single day. And it cost millions. Reality and the measures taken
continued to diverge. None of us was able to reconcile these measures
with the observable reality in 2020. There was no pandemic in our
perception. In
the spring and summer of 2020, there was no pandemic at all, and I have
to say that the measures had nothing to do with it. On the contrary.
Multipolar: Why the opposite?
Fabian:
I mean, this fear-mongering and spreading of panic was also observable
in the emergency services. This panic then spread to the patients. We
had calls where people with broken bones stayed at home for days. And
when we asked them why they hadn't called us earlier or come to the
hospital, they said: "But in the hospital, there's this deadly virus,
and I didn't want to be a burden to anyone and was afraid." Or: an
elderly man calls, his wife hasn't been feeling well for days and now
someone has to come. Then you arrive and find out that she has had a
stroke for several days. "But
why didn't you call us earlier?" - "Well, because there's the killer
virus." He didn't want his wife to die if she went to the hospital,
because everything was full in the hospital, as they had explained to
him on TV.
Some
people have permanently ruined their own health because they didn't
call the emergency services in time. That's irresponsible. They should
have put it into perspective and told people: "Yes, precautions are all
well and good, but please don't panic." In retrospect, I have to say
that they wanted to spread panic and they succeeded. Of
course I saw that there was no reason to be afraid at all, because the
hospitals were empty. And you didn't see dead nurses and doctors stacked
up outside the hospital. So it took me a while to realize that people
had been made so afraid that they were putting their health at risk.
Multipolar:
Within the fire brigade, there are always senior physicians who have to
be available. At the time, one of them was Janosch Dahmen, who is now a
member of the Green Party. You say that the name kept coming up among
colleagues.
Fabian:
Yes, because he was running this parallel unit, spreading panic, which
was conspicuous. The colleagues were always complaining afterwards. He
distinguished himself by spreading fear, by playing on the narrative.
And the fear came more from the doctors than from the firefighters. We
also saw that during operations, the doctors were much more scared. And
of course you also asked yourself: who is this new doctor, Janosch
Dahmen, who joined relatively late, why was he able to act so
arrogantly? The colleagues on the staff did not speak very positively
about him either, because he was not a team player. At the time, none of
us knew that he was with the Greens. He
even sold himself as a senior physician in the Tagesspiegel, which was
not the case (note: in 2021, Dahmen was a senior physician at the Berlin
Fire Department with a responsibility within the medical management).
He has earned himself a nickname internally through his behavior and
approach that is unparalleled. He is known internally as "the slasher"
because he is very uncompromising and radical, some say psychopathic.
Multipolar: In what way?
Fabian:
Senior physician Janosch Dahmen propagates a clamshell thoracotomy.
This involves, so to speak, ripping open the chest, reaching in with
your hands and reanimating the heart. This is war medicine. It is only
done in hospitals for certain types of injuries. In an extreme case, it
would still make sense. To my knowledge, no one at the Berlin Fire
Department had seen this at the scene of an emergency until Dahmen
arrived.

Multipolar: The scene of the incident is usually on an open road, at the scene of the accident?
Fabian:
Exactly. He, Dahmen, was on a call where there had been a shootout. All
the doctors on the scene agreed that the person in question was dead.
But the senior emergency physician, Dahmen, had already announced his
arrival. To everyone's horror, he immediately ripped open the deceased's
upper body, which is why we call him "the slasher". A medical procedure
that was highly controversial at the time and that no one could
understand. Everyone
I spoke to said it was completely unnecessary. And this uncompromising
approach was also noticed during the pandemic. But someone who acts like
that is in the wrong place in a pandemic and is more likely to be
dangerous. Incidentally,
he probably also had to justify his unnecessary actions to the state
criminal police, because the criminal police naturally had a problem
explaining this torn-open corpse to the relatives, especially since the
bullet channels, i.e. the trace evidence, had been destroyed. However,
before he joined the Berlin fire brigade, Dahmen was once lucky enough
to save someone's life with this measure in a hospital. This is how he
made a name for himself. We
tried a dozen more times to perform this clamshell thoracotomy at the
scene of an emergency, but to date all these attempts have predictably
been unsuccessful.
Multipolar:
Janosch Dahmen, a member of the Green Party and head of the health
working group, has also campaigned vigorously for compulsory vaccination
for firefighters.

Fabian:
He has built up a lot of pressure. We always say "the Lauterbach of the
Greens", and not in a good way. He was therefore largely responsible
for the fact that the pressure on me had become so great that I had
myself vaccinated despite my other convictions. Because it was said that
we would be banned from entering, banned from working. That means you
lose your income. At
the beginning, it was still said that everything was voluntary and that
there were no disadvantages for those who did not get vaccinated. Then
came the area-related obligation to provide proof, at the end of 2021.
Firefighters who were unable to provide proof of a full vaccination by
mid-March 2022 were to be reported to the health authority. And then
suddenly everyone went crazy. On
December 23, 2021, an e-mail was sent out that caused a stir, just
before Christmas. Dr. Carsten Homrighausen, the head of the authorities,
even went a step further and wrote in the fire brigade newspaper that
we were not only protecting ourselves with vaccinations. Vaccination was
"compulsory for fire fighters".
Multipolar: Were there colleagues who did not get vaccinated?
Fabian:
Yes, there were. I had already spoken to some of them, and it quickly
became clear that they had really good arguments. At the end of
September 2022, we would have had to have had our third vaccination to
be considered fully vaccinated. But by that time, the turmoil in the
authority was much too great. There was then another much-discussed
email. A
colleague – we call him Big Balls internally – apparently got hold of
the secret password for a special e-mail account, i.e. from a
non-individualizable sender. He then used it to write an e-mail to
everyone. In it, he listed all the contradictions regarding the Covid
vaccination. They probably never found out who he was. If they had, they
would have publicly "hung" him long ago. This e-mail was really
remarkable. I
read it and now I have finally decided: another vaccination? No! As I
understand it, hundreds of other colleagues joined him, so that the
health authority of Berlin Mitte capitulated and left everyone alone.
Multipolar:
Fabian, you said earlier that, from the perspective of the Berlin fire
brigade, from your perspective, there was no pandemic. Now around 75
percent of people have been vaccinated at least once. What has happened
here in the last three years?
Fabian:
A difficult question. In any case, the standards that previously
applied were visibly thrown overboard for all to see. What was
previously the norm – we look at the numbers, deal with them soberly,
look at them from the outside and only act on the basis of facts – was
overridden. There was a step backwards in civil liberties. There is no
longer anyone who claims that vaccination protects against infection. This
means that all measures that resulted in discrimination against the
unvaccinated are obsolete, wrong, a crime, not democratic, not
constitutional and frightening. I would never have believed that this
could be possible in Germany. Everything I learned as a civil servant in
all my training courses is simply obsolete. And how little interest
there is in coming to terms with it. That's why I'm speaking out now. Unvaccinated
people had to be tested under supervision. Vaccinated people were
allowed to do it themselves. Where you asked yourself: wait a minute,
the troop is going into the fire, they trust each other with their
lives. And now they say: no, you can't trust them. It was really bad for
me to see how some of the unvaccinated people were treated. And this
driving apart, that wouldn't have been possible before. And now, in 2024, democracy, the rule of law, we are a long way from that. There is a lot of work to be done.
Multipolar:
Fabian, we know that your name is not Fabian. You are a civil servant.
What would happen if you told us your real name?
Fabian:
That would definitely have horrendous consequences. The unvaccinated
colleagues have felt real pressure to persecute them, even though the
authorities have since rowed back. There is this upsetting video of the
two fire brigade colleagues at a station who have expressed criticism of
the measures. Or the interview on the news with the unvaccinated
colleague. All
colleagues only showed themselves heavily pixelated or masked, because
otherwise the authorities would have come up with flimsy accusations
like "Reich citizens, Nazis, state delegitimizers" and then covered the
colleagues with lawsuits. They would never have been happy again.
Another colleague who took part in a corona-critical demonstration in
Berlin-Tegel was identified. They
actually started disciplinary proceedings against him for the slogan
"Peace, freedom, self-determination". The reason given was that if he
demands that, then we don't have it from his point of view. So he is
delegitimizing the state. As I understand it, he was then also
compulsorily retired because of his age. But I don't know exactly how it
turned out in the end. At
the Berlin Fire Brigade, the extremism officer was apparently even
assigned to find out who was criticizing the public and was supposed to
monitor demonstrations in order to create corresponding lists. That's
why I decided not to say my name, because it would have unforeseeable
consequences.
Multipolar: So could you just be fired or would they try to discredit you?
Fabian:
Before Corona, they would never have been able to fire me for open
criticism. No way. Nowadays I'm not so sure. The current legal changes
are worrying and reminiscent of other times. They are laws to silence
critics of failed policies and to deprive them of their economic
livelihood. We have the very dubious case of an employed occupational
safety officer. He
was not quite in line with the topic of "coronavirus vaccination" and
was probably reluctant to implement it and asked too many questions. As a
result, he was dismissed, no one talks about it, but the fact is that
suddenly the critical colleague was gone from one day to the next. I
don't know what happened to him.
To
be fair, I have to say that it has become quiet in the Berlin fire
brigade. The proponents of the measures can no longer ignore the figures
either. Meanwhile, nobody in the authority wants to talk about it
anymore. Even the alarmists are suddenly saying: it wasn't like that at
all. It was all voluntary, and we didn't put any pressure on them.
Nobody wants to take responsibility for it. Nobody is trying to work it
out now. They act as if it didn't happen. You
get a minimal idea, even if the comparison is of course very far
behind, of what it must have been like in 1946. Suddenly there were no
more Nazis. Today, suddenly there are no more people who said:
"Vaccination protects against infection and transmission." Where are
they all now in 2024? Where are the people who should now stand up and
say: We were wrong? We were wrong. I don't see any.

to express what is going on here.
"Buyx is constantly rambling on about the next 'pandemic'. They
obviously want to repeat the game with refined methods. The WHO treaty
makes it possible."
The post published on RT continued in the same vein:
"The text, which was based on a longer conversation between Homburg and readers of his X-postings on the platform, read:
'Wochenschau' 1945 after a fictitious armistice: 'Göring, Streicher
and Mengele agree: Germany has come through the war well, but we must
prepare for the next one better!' Journalist Julius Streicher was hanged
in 1946. This is a reference to the media, which are still rambling on
about conspiracy theories and leaving the 'processing' to the
accomplices.
At this point, Homburg criticized the somewhat credible attempt by
established media to "come to terms with the corona" by once again
inviting Alena Buyx as an expert, as the ARD channel Phoenix did..."

GLUECKSDRACHE, June 14, 2024, 11:25 AM
A
brief look at the future - desired and longed for by the investor -
shows that there is an urgent need for action. Before the vote on the
draft WHO pandemic treaty, there was a Bundestag document 20/9737 with
the following characteristics:
(1)
The whole thing was played down so that even the members of one's own
parliamentary group did not have a clear picture. An intergovernmental,
then legally valid treaty becomes a "pandemic agreement". As if it were a
minor matter, like the former small border traffic between states, etc.
(2.) Download the document for yourself. Then you can confirm the credibility of this quote by reading it:
to consistently advocate the prevention approach, the comprehensive
prevention of pandemics, and thus to push for a balanced consideration
of the entire PPR cycle ("pandemic prevention, preparedness and
response", PPR) in the final version of the pandemic agreement;
The
wording sounds as if the CDU/CSU had either been instructed or had
voluntarily agreed to adopt exactly the same wording. The WHO pandemic
treaty is always valid.
That's
why the title is a false label. If I want to take out a policy, either
privately or as a business, the title is designed to deceive me. Don't
sign it.
When
I think about how the states are to be excluded: constant training of
employees, seals to be purchased from the WHO so that the laboratory can
be operated at all, even more research on even better viruses, constant
wastewater monitoring. This is the same way of thinking in which a
banker offers free citizen tests and the laboratories then make billions
in sales. I'm not even talking about the medical side, i.e. the
rejection reaction to foreign genetic material.

GEORGE, June 12, 2024, 8:50 PM.
The
"Stop Compulsory Vaccination" initiative suffered a defeat in
Switzerland on June 9, 2024. The initiative against the Covid measures
was rejected with 73.7% of the vote. I would not have expected this to
be so clear.
"The
AfD and the wrench in the works." This article by Jens Berger is listed
as a reading reference at Multipolar, which is perfectly fine. Now the
editor-in-chief of the Nachdenkseiten is once again excelling at
omitting important and good measures on the part of the AfD. It is
largely thanks to the AfD that there is no compulsory vaccination in
Germany. The
jubilation in the AfD parliamentary group after the announcement of the
voting result was genuine. I am very grateful to the AfD for that.
PAUL SCHREYER, June 13, 2024, 10:15 a.m.
The
failure of the mandatory vaccination in April 2022 was less due to the
AfD than to the disintegration of a unified political camp in Corona
policy at that time, also due to the new role of the CDU as an
opposition party. Actually, almost everyone – SPD, Greens, FDP, CDU –
was in favor of mandatory vaccination in one form or another, but the
forces were increasingly splintering. The Welt wrote at the time:
https://www.welt.de/politik/deutschland/article238042337/Impfpflicht-ab-60-Jahren-gescheitert-Ampel-Gesetz-im-Bundestag-abgelehnt.html
"The mandatory vaccination from the age of 60 failed mainly due to
the CDU/CSU and FDP. In addition to the AfD, these two factions also
voted almost unanimously against the group application from the ranks of
the traffic light coalition."
It
is interesting to read the CDU statements from that time, because the
CDU was not opposed to compulsory vaccination, but only criticized that
it had not been "included" by the government, as CDU member Tino Sorge
said at the time:
https://www.n-tv.de/politik/Wir-koennen-doch-jetzt-keine-Impfpflicht-beschliessen-article23248224.html
"Once again, we in the CDU were neither informed nor included. (...)
There would certainly be overlaps and we were willing to talk in many
areas. Instead, our proposal was ridiculed for weeks. (...) That is why
we have submitted a proposal that - should other virus variants threaten
to overburden the health system and be unavoidable in any other way -
can be used to quickly introduce compulsory vaccination in parliament.
This could happen within a few days. (…)
We proposed a compromise that we also consider to be technically
correct. However, a government also needs its own majority if it has a
different opinion. It is not acceptable that Olaf Scholz and Karl
Lauterbach in their traffic light coalition do not seek a majority, fail
to achieve it and instead demand that the opposition support their
technically dubious proposals."
It
was considerations like these that led to the failure of the mandatory
vaccination in Germany at the time. The AfD played a rather minor role
in this, although its general opposition to the government's measures
was of course an important factor in the background. But if the CDU and
the red-green coalition had agreed behind the scenes in spring 2022,
mandatory vaccination would have come, AfD or not. However, the CDU
apparently did not expect much from such an agreement at the time for
tactical reasons.
Even
before that, during the coalition negotiations after the election at
the end of 2021, Scholz had refrained from enforcing the vaccination
requirement with a chancellor's majority in order not to "burn his
fingers on the topic of Corona, which has now been classified as toxic
by politicians," according to the WELT.
https://www.welt.de/debatte/kommentare/plus238018613/Impfpflicht-Kompromiss-Die-Buerger-Verwirrt-Die-Politik-Blamiert.html?
This
created the scope for the following – and unsuccessful – political
horse-trading. However, the fact that the topic of Corona was perceived
as "toxic" certainly had a lot to do with the volume and number of
critics, including the AfD. But they would not have been able to
directly prevent the mandatory vaccination in 2022.

MICHAEL MEYEN, June 13, 2024, 2:10 p.m.
That's
all true (both George's comment and Paul Schreyer's addition), but it
ignores a factor that has been wonderfully illuminated on this platform:
the walks throughout the country from Christmas 2021, recorded in Paul
Soldan's series of reports. Without the protests throughout the country,
that is my thesis, there would have been no differentiation in the
anti-AfD party bloc. How
this is then justified to the outside world and what games were
necessary for this seems to me to be of secondary importance.
GEORGE, June 13, 2024, 2:45 p.m.
Dear
Mr. Schreyer, what you write is all true. From my point of view, the
AfD has spoken out clearly and unequivocally against compulsory
vaccination from the outset, unlike any other party, which was
encouraging. Now it should be added that, in these difficult times, we
have unfortunately only received very pleasant support from AfD
politicians, both professionally and personally, when we have asked
politicians from all parties for help, which was exemplary. I can't help that either.
GEORGE, June 13, 2024, 8:40 p.m.
Thank you for your important contribution, Mr. Meyen (I've learned something new).
GEORGE, June 14, 2024, 8:05 a.m.
Please
allow me to make one final comment to avoid misunderstandings; I would
like to make room for other commentators. The Nachdenkseiten were taken
as an example to raise questions. Is it fair to completely ignore the
AfD when they also make good contributions (see, for example, some of
the speeches by Ms. von Storch)? Is
it fair to ignore the sometimes extremely inhumane way in which the AfD
is treated? And no, the AFD is not my idol – I am just as little an
idol as the other parties.
And
now something personal, without getting too dramatic: my family
miraculously survived the Third Reich because they were in the
resistance. And yet I was able to take a former member of the SS in my
arms because he deeply regretted what he had done and could not find
peace.
I
was only able to do that because I had also looked at the evil in me
without mercy and was therefore able to make room for the good.
With this in mind
Best regards
DR. H. KÄSMACHER, June 13, 2024, 11:30 PM
.
I
worked as an anesthetist at a large university hospital for many years
and during that time I also worked as an emergency doctor for the fire
department. And I performed numerous reanimations. In cardiac surgery,
an emergency thoracotomy occasionally had to be performed in the
intensive care unit due to a pericardial tamponade caused by
post-operative bleeding. This simply involves reopening the surgical
wound. In
contrast, a clamshell thoracotomy involves opening the thorax in a
rather brutal manner, which can sometimes be successful. In most cases,
however, the patient will have bled to death before reaching the
hospital. In this respect, one or the other patient owes his life to
such a heroic intervention.
However,
the fact that Janosch Dahmen performed such emergency thoracotomies in
the emergency service does not mean that he is not suited to the job.
Rather, young surgeons like Mr. Dahmen often tend to overestimate
themselves, failing to recognize the futility of the medical "heroic
deed". Therefore, the following quote from the interview is much more
significant:
"There will be 2.8 million deaths in Germany during this pandemic." –
"What?" – "Yes, 70 percent infection in 80 million people, 5 percent
mortality. That's 2.8 million deaths in Germany."
Almost
everything about this statement is wrong, but it is designed to create
fear and cloud the mind. In fact, a study from Wuhan was published on
February 4, 2020, in which the case fatality rate CFR was given as
between 0.15 and 5.5%
(https://atm.amegroups.org/article/view/36613/html).
However,
the infection mortality rate (IFR) is usually much lower, as not all
infected people become seriously ill and require treatment. In March,
Hendrik Streek's "Heinsberg study" found an infection mortality rate of
0.37%, which was later revised downwards and is now calculated at 0.04%
for people under the age of 65. Even
if 70% of the population were to be infected, there would not be 2.8
million deaths, but around 215,000 nationwide and around 7,000 in
Berlin. But even the 70% is wrong.
Based
on the alleged 6,700 deaths from this infection mortality, Streek
calculated that about 1.8 million people were infected at the peak of
the first wave. That's just 2.2%. The nonsense that 70% of the
population would have to be infected for the pandemic to end was
demonstrably put into the world by Christian Drosten during a federal
press conference in March 2020. This
figure is due to his incorrect use of the so-called basic reproduction
number to calculate herd immunity. The correct figure would have been
14.5% up to the maximum of the infection curve, which would have doubled
by the end of the wave. The fatal thing is that Drosten's statement has
stuck in people's minds that at least 70% of the population would have
to be immunized by vaccination in order to achieve herd immunity. This
is also the case in the mind of Janosch Dahmen, who as a surgeon is
probably just as naive in terms of epidemiological knowledge as the
microbiologist Drosten.
Stupidity
is not a punishable offense, but coercion is. And as far as pressure on
those unwilling to be vaccinated is concerned, Dahmen was one of the
biggest hardliners. If the politicians are not willing to come to terms
with their mistakes and their consequences, then, as Uli Gellermann
suggested, a tribunal, like the Russell Tribunal on the war crimes of
the Americans in Vietnam, would be one possibility.

And as a brief addition and separate comment, in case anyone wants to reply to it: Have you noticed that there seems to be an absolute ban on thinking and communicating about another question? Namely, that the EU is now a real state. We are now at 42,000,000,000 euros of new debt through bonds in 6 months. And how can a loose confederation of states participate in the G7 as a state and then send two people? Or am I rambling again and the press releases and bonds don't even exist?
Please stay awake.

"Armada of the insane" is what Jens Fischer Rodrian called his book, effortlessly getting to the heart of the matter. I am constantly amazed at how doggedly the discussion continues here about cases of infection and the associated misjudgments. It's as if you were discussing with a schizophrenic that the flickering streetlight that wants to give him a sign is not flickering for physical reasons or cannot give him a sign. In my opinion, it's a complete waste of time, which also contributes to the "rationalization" of what is happening, i.e. to ascribe to it a goal, however intended.
Gunnar Kaiser has already made fun of this. The only thing I can ever recognize is a decline in thinking that affects all relevant social areas. And that is why the walks also worked, as Michael Meyen correctly notes, because a mass in decline in thinking reacts solely to demonstrations of power. That is why large demonstrations such as "Against the Right" are so important to the hypnotized leaders. Sorry if I repeat myself, it's supposed to be a good propaganda tool.
