Gottfried Curio, July 22, 2021, Illegal Migration

AfD Kompakt, July 22, 2021

Following an acknowledged moratorium during the lockdown phase, the assault on Mitteleuropa via the Balkan route reports back with full power. The crisis of illegal border crossing into Austria – and in consequence into Germany – again accelerates. The strongest increase in the first six months of the current year is on the West Balkan route: 92 percent more than in the same space of time in 2020. The background is all too clear: Schengen unfortunately – in this regard – has clearly failed; secure outer borders are obviously not functioning so that even the Black-Green in Austria sees itself forced to take hold of robust measures for securing the border.

Since, ja – Austria is doing real border defense: 1,000 requested soldiers assist the police, and in fact on the green border with drones and heat-sensitive cameras with instant access as a consequence. Against the background of the German debates, wherein tales will be told of the acceptance of all and any from all the world, and a permanent self-obligation and a targeted dis-crediting of law enforcement will be managed, an effective observance of the law of this kind and the implementation of state mandates as will be driven forward in Austria is now unaccustomed after a 16 year slumber of the state of law. From the German perspective, such self-evident matters like Austria’s fight against organized crime – here, the illegal intrusion across the state border – sounds like science fiction. Everyone knows that the same here in this country would be immediately defamed as an inhuman agit-hunt of the traumatized.

Opposed to this German fatalism, which wants to invite law-breaking by means of illegal immigrants, Austria shows that a border defense can certainly be managed on the green border. It is as ever only a question of political will. And Germany now must take hold of measures for border defense so as to prevent  that the illegal migration to Germany again increases. The proverbial German self-deprivation of rights is the principle pull factor. As long as Germany does not defend the border, illegal immigrants will continue to feel themselves invited. It would in any case be a sign of neighborly solidarity with Austria – to wit, the Austrian border surveillance – to finally make the border secure.

Ingo Hahn, July 6, 2021, Freedom in the Universities

Bavarian Landtag, Plenarprotokoll 18/87, pp. 11778-11780.

Worthy praesidium. Right honorable ladies and gentlemen.

Yes, it is already quite a while that we again have been allowed to put forward our draft law in a first reading in plenary session, and yes, we take it from the criticism of the other parties that we would only be making pretenses and there certainly might be in the best Bavaria of all time no current problems in the colleges. Yes, we have again factually examined the draft law and have continued to find it good.

Herr Oetzinger in his speech of April 15 has referred gratefully to the esteemed Frau Bauernfeind of the Christian Democratic Students Circle, the RCDS. I am allowed to briefly quote the lady. She said: “Cases are known to us in which students in other colleges have failed examinations because they have not gendered.” Place before yourselves: Such situations have also been reported in Bavaria.

From the lady it is then besides no further to Sebastian Mathes, the RCDS national chairman, as well as member of the CDU national committee. Herr Mathes expressed himself as follows:

Speech is here abused for political indoctrination by means of left-green ideologies under the cloak of the equality policy. Students may not be forced to gender. Just as certainly, the so-called gender-correct speech may not be elevated to an evaluation standard in examinations.

One hears and is astounded! Yet scarcely one of the students finds the courage to protest. The RCDS will now gather and document all cases in which students were discriminated against because they have made use of a correct form of German. Should that not be an alarm signal for the CSU here in Bavaria, ladies and gentlemen?

Who wants to change society, he must go to the schools and universities. There he finds young people who are directly constructing their value system, who seek orientation and guidance. The responsibility is all the greater for those there who educate and form young people; all the greater too is the danger that this is abused; for school children and students are in a relation of dependence on their teachers and docents. Ideologists thrive in making use of this.

Yet how does it relate to the college teachers themselves? How then appears here the scholarly freedom and free speech, Herr Minister Sibler? We need not deal here specifically with the case of Herr Prof. Lütge; the case is well known. Herr Söder without ado simply threw him off the ethics council because he had a wrong opinion. I am allowed at this point to mention his new book; it namely has the title – I quote – : “And Freedom – How the Corona Policy and the Abuse of Science Threaten Our Open Society”. Hearty congratulations. – Herr Minister Herrmann, you laugh, but this properly would be for weeping. I think the title alone speaks for itself.

And the Confucius Institute exercises an undue [unbotmässigen] influence over scholarly freedom and free speech in the universities in Bavaria. As we deliberated on the problem in committee, almost all looked disconcertedly at the pages and kept quiet. No one from the old parties trusted himself to here for once take a position opposed to the Chinese influence. The State government wants in all cases to caste an “examining eye” on the Confucius Institute; but it does not want to act.

Ladies and gentlemen, even the general public is affected. The results of an Allensbach survey meanwhile document how deep the trenches in the culture war have become. 44 percent of Germans state that one can no longer freely express his opinion here in this country. That is half the population – and is largely the result of, unfortunately, having constructed in the past years a surveillance system which functions with exclusion and defamation. Orwell – known to you – besides named such thinking as “thought crime”, Gedankverbrechen, in his work “1984”. Much of this abuse could in fact be effectively combated with the creation of a freedom commissioner, ladies and gentlemen.

Yet one does not want what the State government does not want. Why not? Does one prefer to control the thoughts and opinions of students and docents?

In his April speech, Herr Oetzinger called the freedom commissioner a “bureaucratic monster”. Why actually? What then are the other commissioners in the colleges: The equality commissioner, the commissioner for people with a disability, and the commissioner for data protection? Also monsters? Teeth-baring, slobbering, man-twisting enormities? By no means! They are an integral component of the college landscape and these days are no longer to be wished away.

Exactly so will it be with the freedom commissioner when you here vote in favor. He will be the sharp sword against the monster of slavery, against the monster of political correctness and the monster of the cancel culture, ladies and gentlemen, the sword opposed to the tyranny of censorship.

Unfortunately, the sword arm of the State appears – I must say, and to the State government – to be asleep. It appears to be too weak to take hold of the blade which will here be offered him. You could now demonstrate courage, ladies and gentlemen, and defend our colleges. I request a vote in favor for our draft law [Drucksache 18/14910].

Alice Weidel, July 21, 2021, European Central Bank

AfD Kompakt, July 21, 2021

The ECB’s strategy means fright without end. With its zero interest policy, the ECB devalues our money and expropriates the saver. The eurozone ever more becomes a money junkie, for which it is all the more difficult to get away from cheap money the longer the zero interest policy lasts.

Although the ECB has been restricted by its mandate to a stabilizing monetary policy, it continues its purchase of loans and thus manages a financing of states. The result is a zombiefication of the European national economies. What needs be done is a program to withdraw from the euro which by means of a necessary reform of the currency protects honest citizens and healthy businesses.

Better an end with fright than fright without end.
