“The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false-face for the urge to rule it. Power is what all messiahs really seek: not the chance to serve.”
―H.L. Mencken, Minority Report: H.L. Mencken’s Notebooks (Kindle, paperback)
“He was a very different and distasteful type … obviously, second-rate, who poured forth all the cheap and shoddy propaganda on race teaching, etcetera. We could get nowhere with him because to every question we asked, there came a kind of gramophone record reply.”
—E. Amy Buller, Darkness over Germany (paperback, audiobook)
Gesundheitswesen Über Alles
Shame on you, Germany. Schäm. Dich. Deutschland.
Of all the governments in all the nations in all the world, fascism walks into yours.
And you let it. You welcome it. You sieg heil it.
“From 1933 to 1945, Nazi Germany carried out a campaign to ‘cleanse’ German society of individuals viewed as biological threats to the nation’s ‘health.’… This campaign was based in part on ideas about public health and genetic ‘fitness.’”
“Nazi propaganda often portrayed people persecuted by the regime as vermin, parasites, or diseases.… During the years of the Nazi regime, German doctors argued that Jews spread disease. Reflecting common themes in Nazi propaganda, these medical professionals repeatedly pushed the false claim that Jews were responsible for outbreaks of typhus—a deadly contagious disease spread by lice.…
“German doctors and public health officials in the Nazi regime helped advance these antisemitic ideas.…
“The respected status of German physicians helped spread the lie that Jews were responsible for spreading typhus. Concerned only with preserving the health of German personnel, German public health officials in Poland repeatedly urged occupation authorities to isolate Jews further from the rest of the population and deny them access to medicine. Their professional medical advice was used to rationalize the creation of ghettos throughout occupied Poland.”
Hey, that sounds like policies advocated by pandemic-of-the-unvaccinated Big Lie propagandist and quadruple-injected-now-infected Minister of Health Karl Lauterbach, who recently fulminated at the unvaxxed vermin in a textbook demonstration of defining the enemy:
“Thanks to your effort, we achieved this [saving lives during the pandemic]. But those of you protesting the [mandated] vaccination, you do NOT have a contribution to our success, and you are not supposed to be here. You do not have a right to be here!
“Here we have the [vaccinated] ones that we owe our success to. YOU on the other side did not play your part. It’s an impudence you have the audacity to join these rightful protests of those [healthcare] workers that always were and still are burdened with hard labor. YOUR work is worth nothing!”
Lauterbach is also the spouter of this coercive double-think:
“No one will be vaccinated against their will; the vaccine mandate will simply lead people, ultimately, to accept voluntary vaccination.”
George Bernard Shaw has Lauterbach pegged:
“He knows nothing; and he thinks he knows everything. That points clearly to a political career.”
There’s something so familiar about that still of Lauterbach addressing the crowd. What could it be.… Oh, I know!
Okay, I flipped it so the angle would be similar, but you have to admit the resemblance is uncanny. Both are driven by the selfsame zealous fanaticism, extremist rhetoric, and spiteful contempt for Untermenschen we’ve seen proliferating among politicians over the past two-and-a-half years, Tyrant Trudeau being a peak example of such hate-mongering vitriol.
Karl really likes doing that salute thingy—someone better start coaching him on optics:
Lauterbach has followed his forefathers’ formulae flawlessly:
“Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred.”
—Joseph Goebbels
“It is more difficult to undermine faith than knowledge, love succumbs to change less than to respect, hatred is more durable than aversion, and at all times the driving force of the most important changes in this world has been found less in a scientific knowledge animating the masses, but rather in a fanaticism dominating them and in a hysteria which drove them forward.”
—Adolf Hitler
Historical Precursors
Karl treats dissenters with scornful disgust akin to that shrieked by Judge Roland Freisler while presiding over the trial of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and his July 20 Plot coconspirators:
Judge Freisler was also responsible for sentencing Sophie and Hans Scholl and fellow White Rose leader Christoph Hermann Probst to guillotining after Sophie had been caught cascading leaflets1 that read, “We will not keep silent. We are your guilty conscience. The White Rose will not let you alone!” from the third floor of the University of Munich’s central stairwell. The February 1943 trial that was to determine their fate lasted a mere hour.
In June 1942, Munich citizens opened their mailboxes to discover the first White Rose leaflet, which read in part:
“Isn’t it true that every honest German is ashamed of his government these days? Who among us can imagine the degree of shame that will come upon us and upon our children when the veil falls from our faces and the awful crimes that infinitely exceed any human measure are exposed to the light of day? If the German nation is so corrupt and decadent in its innermost being that it is willing to surrender the greatest possession a man can own, a possession that elevates mankind above all other creatures, namely free will—if it is willing to surrender this without so much as raising a hand, rashly trusting a questionable lawful order of history; if it surrenders the freedom of mankind to intrude upon the wheel of history and subjugate it to his own rational decision; if Germans are so devoid of individuality that they have become an unthinking and cowardly mob—then, yes then they deserve their destruction.…
“But these days, Germans appear more like a shallow, irresolute herd of opportunists who have had all the marrow sucked from their bones. Now that they have been robbed of their essence, they are willing to be pursued to their destruction. This is how it appears, but it is not so. Rather, every individual has been jailed in an intellectual prison after having been slowly, deceptively, and systematically raped. Only as he lies there in chains is he aware of his doom. A few recognized the pending perdition [for what it was]. The reward for their heroic exhortations was death.…
“If everyone waits till someone else makes a start, the messengers of the avenging Nemesis will draw incessantly closer. And then the last sacrifice will have been thrown senselessly into the jaws of the insatiable demon. Therefore in this last hour every individual must arm himself as best he can, aware of his responsibility as a member of the Christian and western civilization. He must work against the hostage of humanity, against fascism and all similar systems of an absolute State. Offer passive resistance—resistance, wherever you may be, prevent the continuation of this atheistic war machine before it is too late …”
During the final seconds before his beheading, Hans cried out, “Long live freedom!”
Bidding her parents a fearless farewell, Sophie predicted, “What we did will make waves.”
In her book, their sister, Inge, records Sophie’s last written word:
“After a short while her cell, too, was empty. She left the indictment sheet behind, and on its reverse we found the word ‘Freedom’ hastily scribbled.”
Lauterbach may not appear to have as much blood on his hands as Freisler, but desk murderers rarely do.
Trickle-Down Intolerance
That Germany not only permits such a petulant tyrant to remain in office but also to dictate national health policy is a sign that it has embraced its role as the New Normal Reich.
Indeed, the trickle-down effect of Lauterbach’s antagonistic attitude and prejudicial policies is evident in this execrable example of a hypochondriacal kapo wielding her petty power against a train passenger:
Was für ein Kindergarten. Bahnangestellte behandelt erwachsene Frau wie ein kleines Kind.
“Those whom the persecutor had singled out as scum of the earth—Jews, Trotskyites, [unvaxxed,] etc.—actually were received as scum of the earth everywhere; those whom persecution had called undesirable became the indésirables of Europe. The official SS newspaper, the Schwarze Korps, stated explicitly in 1938 that if the world was not yet convinced that the Jews [unvaxxed] were the scum of the earth, it soon would be when unidentifiable beggars, without nationality, without money, and without [vaxx] passports crossed their frontiers. And it is true that this kind of factual propaganda worked better than Goebbels’ rhetoric, not only because it established the Jews [unvaxxed] as scum of the earth, but also because the incredible plight of an ever-growing group of innocent people was like a practical demonstration of the totalitarian movements’ cynical claims that no such thing as inalienable human rights existed and that the affirmations of the democracies to the contrary were mere prejudice, hypocrisy, and cowardice in the face of the cruel majesty of a new world. The very phrase ‘human rights’ became for all concerned—victims, persecutors, and onlookers alike—the evidence of hopeless idealism or fumbling feeble-minded hypocrisy.”
Under Lauterbach’s guidance, you have resurrected the “two Germanys” Milton Mayer observed in They Thought They Were Free: The Germans, 1933–45:
“That Nazism in Germany meant mistrust, suspicion, dread, defamation, and destruction we learned from those who brought us word of it—from its victims and opponents whose world was outside the Nazi community and from journalists and intellectuals, themselves non-Nazi or anti-Nazi, whose sympathies naturally lay with the victims and opponents.… those who did not dissent or associate with dissenters saw no mistrust or suspicion beyond the great community’s mistrust and suspicion of dissenters, while those who dissented or believed in the right to dissent saw nothing but mistrust and suspicion and felt its devastation.… there were two Germanys.”

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
