I'm really angry today. Two of my acquaintances have been laid off in the last few days All automotive - the main industry in my state. The middle class is breaking away under our noses. Nothing is reported in the media - main interest is the desperate search for a corona infected person. We have almost 1 million inhabitants and no new disease - a human catastrophe.
In keeping with my mood, there was a very good article in a very neutral platform. I now actually have the hope that it is a kind of wake-up call to the sleeping German people.
Short translation:
Corona False Alarm? If the federal government is wrong, it will "topple"
What actually happens if it should come out that the decision to impose a corona lockdown was possibly wrong? This legitimate question - strongly discredited by the public but audible throughout the country - must now be asked.
For the truth is that not only "corona deniers", "conspiracy theorists", "right-wing radicals", "left-wing radicals" and other groups doubt the severity of the corona measures, but also many citizens and entrepreneurs who have fallen into existential distress as a result of the lockdown. There is no doubt that the corona virus existed and still exists. Only the severity of the measures is questioned by the majority of the population.
At a very early stage, voices were raised to warn of the risks of the lockdown.
If the credibility of studies and virologists is at stake, one last example must be mentioned here. In July 2020, a corona study was published in South Korea, which also made the rounds in the German press. According to the study, infected children and adolescents aged between 10 and 19 years can infect their parents and other household members with corona more often than adults. However, the researchers have now revised their findings. They now believe that it is not really clear who infected whom. The study was published in the journal of the "Centers for Disease Control and Prevention" (CDC).
The medical finding that corona infected people can reinfect themselves immediately after infection is also wrong, Sky News reports. But even this false finding had made the rounds in the German media, which only increased the mass hysteria.
It is particularly shameful that reports and documentaries were produced that mentioned the plague and cholera in the same breath as the corona virus. A renowned German science magazine stated: "Masks, prohibitions and wild theories: Where Plague and Corona have parallels. Many of the things we experience in the corona crisis already existed in earlier centuries - when the plague devastated all of Europe."
There were reports everywhere that drew parallels either to Spanish flu or to the plague. It is probably obvious that whole sections of the population were traumatised by this panic-mongering.
There are already numerous factors that could soon get the German government into trouble. In the coming months, but more likely next year, Germany will be confronted with a wave of insolvencies that will not only lead to a drastic increase in unemployment. As a result, social and economic distortions will also increase.
The only option left to politicians is to establish a causal link between high infection rates and social minorities (psychological code word: "extended families") in order to win over the majority population for further measures and an optional second lockdown. The collective memory of the population could thus be implanted with the narrative that "a very specific minority" is to blame for the spread of the epidemic - this time not the plague ("Black Death" and the "scapegoat theory"), but of course the corona virus.
This tactic, which leads to the destabilization of the country, has often been used in the past decades to push through critical legislative initiatives to the disadvantage of all citizens. It has been very successful because instincts within the population have been addressed, which are very beneficial to the particular interests of politicians. Only a few politicians are likely to be concerned with the social and state welfare, especially since many of them have lost their patriotism in a positive sense (!). Especially with those "actors" who glorify patriotism in order to sow misanthropy.
The majority of politicians will continue to hold back with sharp criticism of the anti-racism mass demonstrations, in which numerous people took part without observing the Corona rules.
Politicians will certainly not name this mass demos as the main source of high infection rates.
After all, you can't attack your own potential voters.
The 2021 election year is coming up.
Nothing is right.
Wenn sich der Verdacht erhärten sollte, dass der wirtschaftsschädliche Corona-Lockdown falsch gewesen ist, wird die Bundesregierung große Probleme bekommen. Es besteht nun die Gefahr, dass die Politik einen geschickten Kausalzusammenhang zwischen dem Virus und ethnischen „Minderheiten“...
