Letter to the Editor – Are we frogs?
A well-known experiment indicated that if a frog is placed in water that is too hot, it immediately jumps out again. However, if you put him in cold water and then slowly heat it up, the frog stays in there until it suddenly gets too hot and he dies in it.
It is similar to today with our economic and all related measures that have led to the disaster we are in today. If you had suddenly introduced everything that politicians now demand from the gullible majority, then a loud outcry against it would have shaken up the whole world and nobody would have committed it.
A steady introduction of restrictions, redistribution of resources and power structures was also better. All of this works best with the strategy of distraction, by being distracted from emerging problems and changes that are decided by political and economic elites – through permanent flooding with insignificant information as well as through theatrically staged, media-supported processes in the world.
Problems are pointed out or “created”, e.g. B. escalating violence, bloody clashes and terror, until the frightened public demands more security laws – also at the expense of freedom. Or an economic crisis that “gradually” gets worse in order to accept the dismantling of social rights and the dismantling of public services as a necessary evil. This can prevent the distracted majority from becoming interested in relevant findings from all areas of science. Until it slowly begins to boil, people usually only realize too late that they failed to react properly beforehand.
The solution of the problems WILL consciously be shifted into the future, in which the acceptance for “painful but necessary measures” will be achieved with simple measures, as the public is naively perceived that by then everything WILL not be so bad after all. This ensures that people have time to get used to changes and then accept them when the time comes. I think everyone is required to take the situation seriously – announced!
