Critical-Thinking

These are the lazy hazy days of Summer. Not much critical-thinking going on right now. Perfect time for Congress to “pass” some stupid “Law” because no one is paying attention.
Hi Frank,
In my case it is a little bit weird: I’m a native German speaker, but I often catch myself thinking in English.
And regarding your other statement from July 11th, well here in Germany, I especially observed such government behaviour during the football world cups or other “bread and circuses” certified events. The newspapers and mainstream media are full of absurdity and no outcry by the public is heard. Many well-known lawyers as Nikolas Steinhöfel have reported how our government is breaking the law constantly, but nothing happens (as usual). This is plain madness.
You hit the nail on the head! The trouble is the more one is absorbed in the “current events” the harder it becomes to see the forest.
Yesterday on some German (Reuters) Internet news, I read a headline saying: “Police shooting migrants” , whereas in the article they clarified that the (Romanian) police only shot into the wheels of a car of some illegal refugee smuggler, the car was stopped and two migrants inside the car were slightly injured. These liars just expect people to read the headline and go on.
PS: The German election promotion bullshit is not any better, for instance the social party candidate Martin Schulz, who in the past was actively stopping some investigation on Brussels tax leaks (big companies not paying any taxes) now claims that we need to do something against the big industry corruption. He is also known to have been an alcoholic (and maybe still is?!), but on some TV show he was saying that it would be very “unkind” to use this incident/fact against him in elections.
Also the big banks, governments and credit card institutions try to create a cashless society and no German party is addressing this point, ignoring the fact that even the German government has published studies according to which the abandoning of cash will not do well to society / freedom / business trades.
Angela Merkel is advertising herself on posters saying: “For a Germany in which we like to live and be well.” Now she even said: “Vote for me and I am going to end the migration crisis!!” – I really hope more and more people are realizing what is going on in this country.
