Subsidies instead of sovereignty: The quiet sell-off of the farming community

Oh, where have you all gone, you proud heroes of the farming community? Probably busy punching the next subsidy application form correctly. After all, resistance needs order. One seriously wonders: Why is it suddenly so quiet when it comes to genetic engineering? Where is the outcry when seeds become a licensed commodity and are labeled "innovation"?

No cigarettes needed: Air pollution is literally rewriting our DNA

New research links polluted air to the same cancer mutations found in smokers. According to a recent study, air pollution can cause DNA mutations associated with lung cancer. Researchers found clear parallels between heavily polluted air and genetic changes commonly seen in smokers. The analysis used the cancer genomes of 871 non-smokers.

Democracy on «Fast Track»: Build faster, object more slowly

With the partial revision of the Telecommunications Act (TKG), the Federal Council aims to "accelerate" the expansion of mobile communications. In the consultation draft of December 12, 2025, this sounds like a step towards cutting red tape. In practice, it reads more like: "Democracy? That was nice. We'll be in touch." Currently, a mobile communications installation typically requires a standard building permit process. While this isn't exactly glamorous,

You can say anything – as long as you don't say anything wrong.

It's actually quite touching how reliably the whole thing unfolds. You'd think there was a script somewhere, copied anew each week and embellished with fresh buzzwords. The tactic is simple, effective, and as old as the desire to prevent people from thinking for themselves: manipulation doesn't attack the body first, but rather the ability to think.

Iran is burning – and so are our narratives.

It's fascinating how quickly moral labels can be applied. One wrong word, one uncomfortable thought, one inappropriate observation, and bam: "Islamophobic." A word that now describes less than it dismisses. Discussion over, case closed, ideology examined. This label has always been particularly popular whenever someone dared to view Islamist terror not as an unfortunate isolated incident, but as a systemic threat.

Free Jacques Baud, or about sanctions, war policies, and the silent abandonment of the rule of law.

There are those moments when you pause and wonder if you've just had a bad dream or if reality has decided to render satire obsolete once and for all. One such moment arises when people from completely different political camps suddenly unite behind a petition. Not by chance. Not out of politeness. But out of genuine concern. When

The Pope explains freedom of expression to the West

Everything was set for one of those carefully ritualized Vatican moments, where diplomats nod politely, nothing happens, and everyone goes home reassured. But then Pope Leo XIV arrived. Ten minutes late, which in the Vatican is already considered a minor revolution, and with a speech in tow that they would rather not hear amidst the canapés and...

Halle: The Purge, but with a city seal

At 22 p.m. in Halle an der Saale, sirens suddenly wail through the city, but not those familiar, boring ones from the 1987 disaster preparedness training film. No. This sounds different. More dramatic. More cinematic. Almost as if someone had mistaken "The Purge" for the city's public address system. And then the crowning moment: "Lockdown, Lockdown, Lockdown… Watch Out." In English. Three times.

Spiritual laws you should respect

The most important invisible laws: Law of Reciprocity: What you send out—energy, thoughts, actions—returns amplified. Law of Authority: Spirits respect only those who know who they are. If you are confused, they dominate. Law of Resonance: You attract what corresponds to your vibration. Purity = clear results. Law of Timing: Some doors

Vitamin D: The greatest danger since common sense

One thing you have to give the "quality media" credit for: consistency. Others call it stubbornness, they probably call it "reliability." Year after year, the same choreography, the same limits, the same warnings, the same finger-wagging. So today it's vitamin D again. Tomorrow something else that just happens not to be patentable and is freely available on the shelf. As we all know, there are plenty of coincidences. The principle is...

Novel Food: How to make plants disappear quietly

Of course, Artemisia annua (annual wormwood) isn't banned. For heaven's sake, we live in free Europe, not Mordor. It's just... let's say... administratively strangled. A small but crucial distinction that one must understand if one wants to grasp modern concepts of freedom. Because Artemisia annua isn't being banned because of its toxicity, nor because of a lack of tradition, nor...
