How was the world conquered in 2020?
Vienna 3/24/2021
When I decided to write about the pandemic on my website a year ago, I didn’t know what changes await us.
Like most of you, I believed it was a dangerous virus.
The first thing I noticed was fear propaganda. The scenes shown in the media that shouldn’t be there. Not that I object to honestly informing people. The problem was different – I immediately felt that someone really wanted people to be scared.
It was so irrational that I couldn’t believe politicians were spreading visions of horror instead of calming down and helping people.
That is why I have decided to collect information myself and to counteract the fear pandemic. It is not that difficult to find reliable sources of information. Most of them are official websites of organizations such as the WHO, the German RKI or the American CDC. The vast majority of the information provided there was factually correct.
Fear was only spread by taking this information out of context and presenting it with bias, which terrified people.
The answer to the question asked in the title can be found on this blog.
All comments, regardless of the authors’ beliefs, are accepted by me. I kept the ability to control comments to prevent malicious trolls from acting. If someone rightly or not insults other people, calls for acts of violence – a discussion of violence as a solution is recommended – must expect that such an entry will not be published. I am determined to have a cultural discussion with respect for people who think differently. I’m not going to block entries with obscene words, although I would prefer them not to be there. I’ve described the only criteria for deleting an entry above. I am against all censorship.
If you prefer to read e-books instead of clicking individual chapters, you can click the e-book item in the top menu and a PDF file will open containing all the chapters of the blog in chronological order. This file is updated when a new chapter is published.
I invite you to enjoy reading and encourage discussion.
