As always, Hal Faber’s newsreel wants to sharpen the eye for the details: Sunday’s newsreel is commentary, outlook and analysis. It is backward and forward at the same time.
What was.
*** A new year begins today, at least in China. welcome to Year of the Water Rabbit. Some see with “Hongtu Dazhan” that big plans are progressing, others see calm and harmony to approach us. Then there are those who looked to Davos this week and saw China on the move. But what does that mean? How writes that Trade Journal for Markets and Marbles: “This year Davos was a gathering of 3,000 people who looked together into their glass balls and at the same time tried to unobtrusively catch a glimpse into the glass balls of their neighbors.” The marble mania of the rich knows no bounds and so it sounds wonderful in the ears when in the year of the water hare the People’s Republic on its normal path of growth returns. The World Bank and the President of the Industry Association are delighted, reports nd-aktuell, where journalism is practiced from the left.
*** So written in a newspaper, the federal olaf a big one interview there, with the advice, if you please, to protest against the fact that it takes six years for a wind turbine to be approved. The goal must be to set up three to four large wind turbines in Germany every day, announced the top social democrat, only to travel to Lubmin the next day: “The terminals were planned, approved and built” within a few months. There are wind turbines of a completely different caliber. The real problem is not the wind turbines and those hippies over there in Lützerath, but the negotiations with RWE, which were conducted in secret by the Green Economics Ministers Habeck and Neubaur. That in combination with the alleged Huge success in these negotiations, as the party leadership puts it, is tough stuff for a party committed to protecting the environment.
*** Then there is journalism from the bottom left. These days, that has led to a simple link in a Article as a reason for a search, which was criticized as an attempt to intimidate the press. With the link, Radio Dreyeckland supported this association as an extended arm of a forbidden “association”. The is particularly striking Reason with a photo of a house wall with the slogan “Wir sind alle Linksunten/Indymedia”. A spokesman for the public prosecutor’s office argued that the “visual statement must be understood by the readership addressed as an expression of opinion by the authors that adopts the supporting tendency”. What the “target group of readers” might look like, whether small like the circle of chairs in a day care center or large like that readership at home was not said. Somewhere in between lies my circle of readers and they have known since this newsreel that the equating of Indymedia (bottom left) with Altermedia (far right) that led to the ban was quite questionable. As I wrote back then: “The small question of whether a link to an extremist site is punishable is once again in the ball pool and wants to be picked up.” It’s still there today, because the question of criminal liability remained open after the action, because the author of the Dreyeckland article said of his own accord that he had written the article. Two private apartments and the radio station were searched and the conclusion is sobering: “The encroachment on the basic rights of the suspects took place one way or the other, even if the measure later turned out to be disproportionate.”
*** Not far from Dreyeckland, something happened that was overdue these days. The Prime Minister of Baden-Württemberg, Winfried Kretschmann, sent an open letter to those affected by the Radical Decree and advocated the decree by The Länd sorry: “They have unjustly experienced suffering through opinion hearings, professional bans, lengthy court proceedings, discrimination or even unemployment. As Prime Minister of the State of Baden-Württemberg, I very much regret that.” To a certain extent, Kretschmann himself was one of the victims of the decree, which was interpreted particularly severely in Baden-Württemberg. He was temporarily banned from working, but this was lifted after the intercession of Georg Turner, the President of the University of Hohenheim. In the 1970s, Kretschmann studied biology at what was then the agricultural college and was a member of the Communist League of West Germany (KBW). Only recently did the Green party celebrate his university as the “Silicon Valley of German agriculture”. In the open letter, Kretschmann writes about democracy as a learning event: “At the same time, democracy must always observe the liberal basic sense of its order. This also includes the knowledge that people can change and learn. That is precisely a basic sense of freedom – being able to make different decisions and do things differently and better. “People who hold outlandish and erroneous positions today may have become wiser in five or ten years and think differently. Liberal democracy must not only allow such learning processes, but also promote and appreciate them. I myself am still grateful today that democracy gave me this chance.” The red pasha has become a good father of the country, admittedly one with Swabian thrift: A rehabilitation or even compensation costs, so there is no such thing.
*** Not only does the year of the water hare begin today in China, today you can also celebrate in Europe. Because 60 years ago today, the Franco-German friendship with Élysée Treaty sealed. The contract was signed by Konrad Adenauer and Charles de Gaulle. Reason enough for a newspaper, one Garden gnome with a baguette in his arms to draw, the rest is zl,ng or tl,npl. De Gaulle refused to hug Adenauer at the time and pushed Pompidou and Adenauer together like children who should get along. Reason enough for Olaf Scholz and Emmanuel Macron to publish a reflection in the newspaper for clever minds. Because both are poor wretches, he stands text behind a euro wall, so give me the right to quote for the moving conclusion: Our generation has the task of shaping the future of the next generation with their dreams. To complete, improve and strengthen Europe requires efforts of gigantic proportions; but the past sixty years have taught us that nothing is impossible when we stand side by side.” Sounds good, but when you stand side by side you have to listen to each other and occasionally talk together, like on the supply of tanks to Ukraine to defend and complete Europe. It’s funny that the new secretary of defense (yes, I got that wrong, parity is a paper tiger) first has to count how many leopards are actually lying around. Could it be that our Bundeswehr is a kind of Wirecard army?
*** Now someone’s gone, who almost cut his hairbut until the end wore the mat and someone one Terrorist Attorney called and who wrote children’s books about the horse Huppdiwupp and other funny stories. The best of the 60s and 70s is only available on a few radio stations and they sound horrible.
what will.
This is how success stories are written: One million e-prescriptions have been redeemed in our country, where doctors and dentists write 500 million prescriptions every year. The latter are a bit eaten up and run with them broken collar around because they don’t see the success. Then there’s the e-prescription enthusiasts, a group of activists who want to stick themselves on the street in front of the Federal Ministry of Health next Wednesday because the ministry is blocking the digitization of prescriptions. Or so. Poor Doctor Lauterbach, he has enough problems. Since his vaccination campaign “I protect myself” has expired and now it turns out that the contract for them not legitimate could have been.
