It is interesting how many highly educated people and those with many years of schooling do not possess emotional intelligence or the power of critical thinking and questioning.
It is as if many years of schooling dull a person and turn him into an obedient robot.
Lest anyone misunderstand me, I am not against a high level of schooling and education, but in that process it is extremely important to keep your own opinion, think critically, doubt, question, research independently and not take anything as a universal truth.
Because the mind is like a parachute - it functions best when it is open...

Dumb, dumber, Europe
Harakiri or as the Japanese more commonly call it seppuku has long been abolished…
It was an act of atonement for great mistakes, cowardice or a violation of the bushido code (the samurai code of honor)…
The myth lives on…
A great European nation is on its way to kneeling in a ritual position…
Of course, I am exaggerating…
Germany has managed to make a civilizational somersault that is rarely seen - from a country that designed gas pipelines through half the continent to a country that checks its own citizens' canisters at the border because they went to get fuel in a neighboring country…
Once technology exporters, today gasoline importers in the trunk…
Historical progress, nothing like that…
After years of building an energy system that worked, then dismantling it themselves because it became politically unsuitable, closing nuclear plants because it seemed moral, quarreling with unsuitable suppliers because it seemed principled, and finally deciding that they would guide their energy strategy according to advice from America, they have now reached the stage where the state is persecuting its own drivers for twenty liters of diesel...
Of course, the culprit is not politics...
The culprit is the man who wants to get to work without taking out a fuel loan...
The culprit is the driver who dared to cross the border...
The culprit is the market because it is not behaving properly...
The culprit is the war, the weather, the climate, the stock market, the Russians, Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, everything except decisions made with conferences, applause and moral speeches...
It is especially sad to see how a country that has lectured others about rational economics for decades now has no one at its gas stations and queues on the other side of the border, while customs checks canisters as if it were smuggling gold, and not an attempt to drive a few kilometers longer and under two euros per liter...
A calming message comes from Berlin...
Chancellor Friedrich Merz, full of his own political nothingness, reveals to the nation that prices would be lower than 2.50 euros per liter of diesel on the highway if the war were to end...
And that the best and cheapest fuel is to fill up between 6:00 PM and 10:00 PM…
Filling up early in the morning is expensive…
And then comes a scene that would be tragically funny if it weren't real…
Vladimir calls from Moscow and says that there is gas, there is oil, the pipes existed, the partnership existed, and that Russia is ready to sell energy again to those who want normal cooperation without political theater…
In other words - the fuel exists, but the problem is that it is the wrong fuel, from the wrong country, at the wrong time, for the wrong ideology…
And now we have a perfect picture of 21st century Europe: gas pipelines destroyed, nuclear power plants shut down, fuel the most expensive, industry is moving, customs is counting canisters, and politicians are waiting for 'signals from the capitals' while citizens are already sending a signal - standing in line at the gas station in Poland…
If this was a strategy, then it is ingenious…
If not - it is even more ingenious…
Goethe's country can and must do better…

How to recognize AI text? 🕵️
Not by content. 📝
Not by excessive use of icons. 🎯
But by style. This kind. Cretinous. Every sentence is short and meaningful. Every thought is profound. The idiots are shocked — the midwits are confused — the em dash is overused.
When you see this style of writing, one thing is clear. The content is inaccurate — the author is unintelligent — the AI is incapable of filling in the gaps in ideas bigger than the ideas themselves.
And finally, a generic encouragement to think — let that sink in.

Absolutely correct - without courage and knowledge we just frenziedly follow other people's agendas and have no life of our own.
In a time of identity struggles, many have forgotten what identity actually means - to have ourselves and to serve something with our own will.
In order to identify ourselves correctly, we must first know what we are - a man in the cosmos, not a monkey in a circus.
One of the criteria that can help us see whether we are someone or nobody is to notice how much we repeat ourselves and do not progress - for example, on social networks you should never write the same comment twice - because that already shows that we have become anchored in some mental and emotional rut that numbs both the brain and the heart, turning us into zombies 😎

2026-01-08 12:33:01 CET

American policy is emerging from the diplomatic fog and entering a zone of open coercion, while the old order is collapsing faster than Europe seems to notice
Stephen Miller is not the classic behind-the-scenes adviser who occasionally whispers in the president’s ear. In Donald Trump’s second term, he has transformed into a kind of ideologue—a man who openly articulates what Washington has been doing for decades but previously concealed behind rhetoric about human rights, democracy, and alliances.
When Miller coldly declares that the world is ruled by “power and force,” that there are iron laws of power that have “applied since the beginning of time,” he defines a new phase of American policy. Today, words and deeds align.
The context that gives such statements weight stems from the fact that Trump is now in power with the experience of his first term and with people who can more easily bypass the system’s internal restraints. Miller is now deputy chief of staff for policy and is no longer merely the designer of anti-immigration decrees, as he once was. He participates in shaping strategy, drawing on an old 19th-century idea—the Monroe Doctrine—but reinterprets it in the spirit of the present moment.
The Western Hemisphere is imagined as a space in which American will stands hierarchically above the rights of smaller states. Trump adopts this quickly, but it is Miller who dictates the rhetoric, which at times sounds almost like a parody of imperialism, like something dreamed up by the Monty Python team—unfortunately, there is no humor in this story, not even black humor.
When explaining the operation in Venezuela, Miller claims that the United States will run the country until a “new order” is established, thereby showing exactly how his theory of force looks in practice. The sovereignty of a state becomes a variable category. If oil is important and geopolitical position is crucial, and Washington is in a hurry, the role of Congress and international organizations slips into second place (or is no longer mentioned at all).
Miller shows a similar line of thinking when he talks about Greenland. That Arctic island, officially under the Danish crown, is in his eyes the next target. The statement that Greenland should become part of the United States, and the belief that no serious actor would go to war against America over it, reveal the core of Miller’s doctrine. In the background are resources, new Arctic routes, and military positioning vis-à-vis Russia and China. In the foreground appears the message that the U.S. will use its superiority to take what it considers necessary for its “own security.”
Worst of all—isn’t Miller right? At least when it comes to the claim that “no one would go to war against America.” Would Denmark fight? Even though it could rely on European allies, statements from Copenhagen are, to put it mildly, pathetic. Calling someone who openly threatens you an “important ally” is an amplified signal to Trump’s predatory administration that the moment is ideal for an attack of any kind.
The shameful statements from Denmark are not the beginning; all of Europe has for years been “feeding Washington’s ego,” telling Trump (and Washington in general) just how extremely submissive it really is. NATO’s chief, a former Dutch prime minister, calls him “daddy”; almost all EU countries are frantically increasing military spending in response to Trump’s brazen threats and in some way committing themselves to their own catastrophe by edging toward a direct confrontation with Russia.
For America, that would be a fantastic outcome. Miller and other hawks of the new generation (imperialists replacing interventionists) are one step away from starting to seize parts of Europe even in these supposedly “peaceful times.” And they would get away with it—even now. But it would be even better if Europe were in total chaos, bombed and in direct conflict with nuclear-armed Russia. In such a scenario of complete collapse, America could come and take whatever it wants.
Europe will ultimately prove to be a geostrategic preschooler or first-grader. While repeating every day the danger of the “Russian threat,” the real threat is piling up on the other side of the Atlantic.
Miller’s influence is visible not only in interviews and bombastic formulations. The new National Security Strategy itself (in which, let us recall, Europe is sharply criticized, not Russia) clearly bears the stamp of his way of thinking. In that document, the Monroe Doctrine receives a kind of addendum that codifies the U.S. right to politically, economically, and militarily control the Western Hemisphere (an idea that will likely later be easily expanded to the entire globe). It mentions the need to secure access to energy and minerals, to adjust military presence, and to exploit superior military systems for American goals.
Such a text is hard to imagine in the Obama era, or even in the Bush era, when attention was still paid to linguistic restraints and to the need for actions to appear at least formally consistent with the international order.
In the first phase after the Cold War, Washington liked to present itself as the architect of the liberal order; later as the leader of the global war on terror; and in the Obama period as a power combining hard and soft power. Miller’s era breaks with that style. He openly embraces the logic of great powers, the logic of spheres of influence and raw power. He emphasizes the goal of access to resources, control of space, and the prevention of rivals.
In his formulations there is no illusion that small states decide their own fate; what matters is which great power they align with.
In this story, it is extremely ironic that Europe, which is still asleep when it comes to the American threat, is incapable of noticing anything concrete about the situation in Caracas and instead, like a broken record, keeps returning to Russia. Many thus claim that what Trump has done is a “gift to Putin,” because the Russian president will now feel more “willing” to launch similar attacks himself.
But there is a difference. The Russian leadership, not even the Kremlin’s hawks, engages in rhetoric like that put out by Stephen Miller.
What concrete chances has Washington given Venezuela? And what chances did Russia give Ukraine? Was autumn 2021 really so long ago? Would we have a horrific war in Eastern Europe today if the U.S. had committed not to pull Ukraine into NATO? Did Putin and Biden have a direct video conference where this was discussed? They did. And what did America tell Moscow? No chance. All of these episodes, it seems, Europe slept through and woke up in a hypnotized state in which there is only one threat—the Russian one.
While they look toward Russia, America will take Greenland and, even more devastatingly, all of Europe’s economic competitiveness. Europe, which already has to import expensive American LNG gas and, at Washington’s command, build weapons stockpiles, will remain in this great-power story powerless, non-sovereign, and ripe for complete absorption into the American zone of interest and exploitation. They do not even have the strength to call a single Miller by his proper name, let alone “Daddy” Trump. Such a submissive stance, unfortunately for all of us here, will cost the entire continent very dearly.

These three things need to be preserved from internal and external enemies (with or without the European Union):
- free speech
- private property
- our own culture
It is not useful to be a defeatist and give up on the values that have shaped us in advance.
We need wiser leaders, who are imbued with these values, and I do not see them.
The current leaders do not value freedom, nor the right to property, nor European cultures.
Those who would like to come to power value only European cultures, and despise the #freedom and property of citizens, and love their own.
They are all some kind of social engineers, who want to shape us according to their narrow-minded fantasies, among which the planned #economy and the restriction of personal freedoms play the biggest role.
We should give up on such leaders, not on values.
If enough people know what is good for them, the leaders will show up to implement such policies.
I do not believe in the downfall of #Europe and I think that such talk is shooting itself in the knee. It is not at all clear what those who repeat this mean - the collapse of the #EU or the collapse of European states?
We have nowhere to go, we are from here and it depends on us how things will be for us here - it seems that many Europeans do not understand this, somehow disinterested, discouraged and reactive, instead of active.
Because apparently most do not know how we became one of the best places to live in the world - I blame schools and universities for that - but it is what it is - everyone can and must find out for themselves.

What does it really mean - to be safe on social media?
You are literally at home in your armchair, you couldn't be safer.
You can put your phone down at any time and go do something else.
You don't even have to read what someone writes.
If you do, you don't have to take it seriously at all.
Unless the prime minister writes it - then you have to take it very seriously and fear for your life, existence, freedom of movement and speech.
Because you know that the world is upside down right now - whoever shouts the most to protect you is the one who endangers you the most.
Because criminals and terrorists are few and far between and most of them we will never meet in our lives - and you can't bypass the prime minister - they will set the price of electricity for you, where and with what you can drive, what you can say, what you can buy.
And that's why they need to be monitored the most - maybe a digital ID for all politicians - we must always know where they are and what they are doing 😊

Price doesn’t matter because it is a reflection of a broken monetary system trying to measure truth in fiat terms. What matters is the move from manipulation to transparency, from scarcity built on debt to abundance built on truth. The price will follow not because we hope it will, but because it must.

No one knows how much effort some people put in just to seem ordinary.
This does not only refer to those on the fringes of society, but also to those with a sharp conscience and a mind that is constantly working and who see the world differently from most people around them.
These bright souls have to make an enormous effort to adapt to a reality that conflicts with their inner world.
And therein lies the real suffering: in trying to come to terms with a world that does everything to put them in a framework that is acceptable to the masses.

On this day, November 12, 1976, it seemed like any other day.
A car accident and a seemingly innocuous diagnosis: a right knee injury.
Nothing serious—or so it seemed at the time.
And yet, in the months that followed, the pain not only remained, but grew worse.
Finally, the brutal, merciless truth arrived: osteosarcoma—a malignant bone tumor that can strike suddenly and take one's life.
Terry Fox, then not yet twenty years old, found himself faced with a choice no one should have to make: the amputation of his right leg and its replacement with a mechanical prosthesis.
Today we have modern solutions, but back then… even walking was a heroic effort.
Let alone running.
But Terry didn't give up.
Three years later, on April 12, 1980, he decided to do something that seemed impossible:
run across Canada from coast to coast.
On foot. With one leg.
The goal?
To raise one dollar from every Canadian and donate it all to cancer research.
Thus was born a race that made history: the “Marathon of Hope.”
Every day he ran the marathon distance — 42 kilometers. Every day.
He went through Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario…
It was an epic, inhuman challenge — no professional athlete had dared to repeat it.
After 143 days and 5,373 kilometers, he had to stop.
The cancer had attacked his lungs.
He no longer had the strength, not because he lacked courage, but because his body refused to obey.
It was September 1, 1980.
By then, he had already raised $24 million.
A little less than a year later, on June 28, 1981, he passed away.
He didn’t even live to see his 23rd birthday.
His marathon was completed a few years later by Steve Fonyo — also a cancer survivor, also with an amputated leg.
In this way, the “Marathon of Hope” came to its symbolic end.
I write these words with admiration and sadness.
Today, hordes of teenagers (and not only them) flock to stores to buy T-shirts of overpaid athletes who are worshipped as gods for every goal, dunk or dribble. There are also those who abused the image and work of this young man for their own selfish purposes, but they should not be given much attention.
There are champions.
And there are heroes.
There are sports legends.
And there is the one who ran for hope.
There are famous names.
And then… there is TERRY FOX.

"The European Union will now require ID checks for every cash payment over €3,000, and for all crypto transactions, no matter how small. Even worse, cash payments above €10,000 are being outright banned.
They call it “security.” Many call it the next step toward total financial surveillance. "

Have you ever wondered why birds fly in a V-shaped formation?
For years, scientists have wondered why birds line up in this way. It turns out that nature has created an ingenious mechanism that allows them to fly huge distances without losing direction or wasting unnecessary energy.
Each bird, flapping its wings, creates lift for the one flying immediately behind it. Thanks to this, the entire formation reaches speeds of up to 30–60% greater than each bird could do on its own. Air resistance becomes lower, and the effort is more evenly distributed. This is why birds can cover thousands of kilometers without resting.
At the head flies a leader – usually the oldest and most experienced bird, who has flown the same route many times and knows the way. Its wing movements create strong air currents that make the flight easier for those flying behind it. The second bird helps the third, the third the fourth, and so on – until the end of the formation.
The oldest, weakest or injured birds always take their place at the back of the formation, because there is the least air resistance. Then they can glide almost effortlessly on the air wave created by the birds in front of them.
It is also interesting that birds flying in a V-formation can maintain a speed of up to 80 km/h throughout the entire migration route. But no leader could do it alone. That is why there are always several “commanders” in a formation. When the first one gets tired, it calmly descends to the end of the formation, and the next one takes his place. And so they take turns all the way — like a perfectly coordinated team.
And another fascinating thing:
that characteristic cry that we hear from the sky is mostly emitted by the birds flying behind. In this way, they cheer on the leaders, give them strength and motivate them to keep up the pace. It is their form of support and encouragement.
If a bird tries to break away from the wedge and fly alone, it immediately feels enormous resistance and weight. That is why it quickly returns to the formation.
Because in a group – it's always easier.

I heard someone say a long time ago that life only gives us what we can handle. I'm not sure. And I don't understand how life knows that. And how those around us know that.
I watch people around me breaking under the weight of life. People tired, discouraged, separated from everything. Giving up on their dreams. And nothing can bring them back into the game of life. Did they only get what they could handle? I'm not sure.
Many times in school I failed an exam. I was given assignments that I didn't know how to face. Not only in school, but in life. I was at rock bottom and more than I should have been. And then I said to myself: I'll try again.
I guess these blows taught me something. I realized one thing.
Life doesn't always give us what we can handle. It often breaks us, destroys us, finishes us off. But it's up to us to put ourselves back together. Get up again. Dust ourselves off. And move forward.

First, we physically separated ourselves from other people through social networks, each one alone on their computer or phone.
But we continued to communicate with others, even much more and in wider circles than before physically.
And now, when we have had enough of conflicts on social networks, we are offered to float away, alone and physically separated, into "one-on-one" communication with AI chats, which will flatter us, so there will be no more of these hateful conflicts. With people.
It will be possible to talk only to yourself for the rest of your life 🤔
Having people and a real social life will become something rare and extremely valuable.
And we will begin to differ greatly in this - people who live in person and those who have completely withdrawn into communication with an approving machine - will become different species, who have difficulty communicating with each other.
Chat people are not the ones who will survive this.
It is incredible what profound social changes I have seen in these forty years 😞

They assigned him the number: 119104.
But what they tried to kill most in him was what ultimately saved millions of lives.
1942. Vienna.
Viktor Frankl was 37 years old. A distinguished psychiatrist, a promising career, a nearly finished manuscript, and his wife Tilly—whose laughter could fill an entire room.
He had a visa for America. The door to freedom was open.
But his elderly parents couldn't leave.
He stayed.
A few months later—the Nazis came.
First Theresienstadt. Then Auschwitz. Then Dachau.
The manuscript he had been working on for years was carefully sewn into the lining of his coat.
It was taken from him within hours of his arrival.
His work. His meaning. In ashes.
They took his clothes. They shaved his head. They erased his name.
Only the number 119104 remained on the paper.
But the guards didn’t understand one thing:
Everything can be taken from a person — except what they carry inside them.
And Frankl knew something about the human spirit.
Something that would save his life — and change psychology forever.
He noticed a pattern:
the prisoners didn’t die of hunger or disease.
They died when they lost their reason to live.
When a person lost their “why,” their body would give up within days.
The doctors called it the disease of giving up.
But those who had something to hold on to —
the woman they wanted to find, the child they were expecting, the book they wanted to write, the promise they had to keep —
managed to survive the unthinkable.
Frankl decided to conduct an experiment.
Not in a laboratory. But in a barracks.
He would approach people on the verge of despair and whisper:
“Who’s waiting for you?”
“What task do you still have left?”
“What would you tell your son to survive this day?”
He could give them neither food nor freedom.
But he gave them something that could not be taken away:
a reason to wait for tomorrow.
Someone remembered his daughter—he survived, to find her.
Someone else—an unfinished theory—he survived, to write it.
Frankl himself survived by rewriting his manuscript in his mind—page by page, paragraph by paragraph.
April 1945—liberation.
He weighed 37 pounds. His ribs were poking through his skin.
Tilly—dead.
His parents—dead.
Brother—dead.
Everything he loved-destroyed.
He had every reason to give up.
And yet—he sat down and began to write.
Nine days.
That was how long it took him to rewrite from memory the book that the Nazis had burned three years earlier.
But now it had something the first one didn’t have:
proof.
Proof that his theory worked.
He called it logotherapy—therapy through meaning.
A simple but revolutionary thought:
“He who has a why can bear almost any how.”
The book was published.
Publishers first rejected it: “Too dark.”
“Who would want to read about the death camps?”
And then — it spread around the world.
Therapists cried, prisoners found hope.
People after loss, illness, divorce—were discovering that suffering can have meaning.
Over 16 million copies sold.
Translated into 50 languages.
One of the ten most influential books in American history.
But real influence is not in the numbers.
It is found in every man who, in the darkest night, reads his words and decides to stay — one more day.
For Viktor Frankl proved that a man can be taken away from everything — freedom, family, hope, a future —
but not how he responds to it.
We cannot control what befalls us.
But we can always choose what we do with it.
Today, Viktor Frankl is gone.
But his words still resonate in hospital rooms, prisons, and the silence of our hearts: “When we cannot change the situation, we must change ourselves.”
“A man can be taken away from everything — except one thing: the freedom to choose his attitude toward what befalls him.”
The Nazis gave him a number.
History gave him immortality.
The man who lost everything — discovered the one thing no one can take away from us — meaning.
Prisoner 119104 didn’t just survive.
He turned suffering into hope.
And somewhere, today, someone standing over a precipice will read his words and decide — to endure another day.
It is not just survival.
It is victory over death itself.
