Fake news – only we are allowed to do it

No freedom, no truth

Breaking news: :: Christmas, Easter and Whitsun will be combined this year for reasons of efficiency. ::
All right, I admit it. That was fake news. No? Really? Yes!
However, 39.7% of the readers of the former news magazine, 87.3% of the readers of its direct competitor and over 42% of the readers of the renowned elite newspaper believed this news unquestioningly and unchecked. You don’t think so? Ooo.K. Then you are one of the lucky ones who have not yet completely outsourced your thinking. But hey, we live in a country where those who can buy education are successful. Yes, “have”, in the sense of ownership. Who else in the whole world would come up with the crazy idea of paying proven fraudsters like Guttenberg, Schawan, Saß, Koch-Mehrin & Co. would be considered competent for whatever. The latest “news” has already made me sick again, that Seehofer needs Guttenberg as a helper in times of need for his dear CSU family. My God, how low can the CSU sink. “Education” just doesn’t work much differently in good ol’ Germany than it does elsewhere. Buy yourself a title, put on a white coat, print yourself a certificate and just repeat the message often enough. That’s just how education works in the state run by the authorities, like propaganda, advertising or Newspeak. And if the subjects can be forced into their happiness without resistance, then it’s even better, this country of educated citizens. I can’t think of any other country that forces its citizens to pay for the most expensive propaganda on earth without a single order form, i.e. that taxes them, so to speak.
In addition to the famous state-economy carousel, there is probably also the state television-politics carousel, or why else does a text reader (News anchor) suddenly become a government spokesperson? And in all of this, one should not forget the poor directors and editors-in-chief, so that they don’t have to gnaw on the starvation towel.
And because the Internet is still not fully controlled, a few clever people have once again come up with a great coup: from now on, only ordered false reports will be allowed. Once again, democracy means that information may only be interpreted and published in the way that those in power dictate. Nowadays, this is euphemistically referred to as “fake news”. Hahaha, that was the best joke of the year so far. And because the American sisters and brothers invented it, it’s best to talk about fake news and show publicly that Germany is also following the USA in this respect.
It sounds far too cool for too many people to simply do without it, especially as it sounds so beautifully USarisc. Yes, the dear Americans! Weren’t they the ones who legitimized a war of aggression against Iraq, among others, in violation of international law, which killed and maimed hundreds of thousands of people, with their fake news, which our dear BND cobbled to them, to the “world public” – yet another bullshit word. Was it not THEY who built up, trained and armed the Islamists financed by the Saudis, many of whom are mercenaries, but certainly not holy warriors? Were they not the ones who are plunging one country after another in the entire Middle East into chaos, which is why millions of people are living a dangerous, inhumane life on the run, have lost all their possessions and are only being used by all parties as pawns for their own interests? So that’s it, the best democracy money can buy.

Two times three makes four,
widewidewitt and three makes nine,
I make the world for myself,
widewide as I like it …
