Comment from Markus Langemann
I have always been bored of working off the inability of political actors, elected officials and office holders at local, municipal or even national level. It's a low-threshold regulars' table folk sport or, in more contemporary terms, something for frustration-ridden souls who have caught the Twitter clap and are now being constantly and unasked for by their local pressboard clippan.
spout their verbal slop via this or that digital portal. Most of them are crybabies who polish their own meaning by ranting. Like-lickers in a permanent dopamine ecstasy, collecting hearts and followers like grandpa used to collect Panini cards.
And yet - let me hold a politician's polemic here, because the civil servant who insulted my intellect at the weekend is behaving in a truly outstanding and outrageously stupid manner: Acting Federal Finance Minister Christian Lindner is tactless, self-drunken and callous. He is as far removed from grounding virtues such as decency and morality as Neil Armstrong once was from the earth.
The only way I can explain his Sylt trip is that his brain is apparently orbiting his body in a detached service module, if it hasn't already left Lindner's orbit completely. I ask you, dear readers, and Mr. Lindner, completely free of social envy:
How can a finance minister with the biggest economic and national crisis of the post-war period on his hands be so stupid as to stage a feudal wedding party on the cliché champagne island of Sylt together with the Byld (sic!) that makes a mockery of every good German citizen who is steering his family through this legislative period of imbeciles?
How can a German treasurer, appointed and paid by the people, get into a Classic Car 911 with a full tank of gas and drive it to the Gunter Sachs-sanctified Zanzibar amid a flurry of photos - while the biggest German post-war crisis rages on the mainland?
I could ask many more questions. Like why the Ukraine-front hamster Ronzheimer appears so suddenly and unexpectedly at a bridal selfie on Sylt? Why does Nuhr, as an ARD cabaret biting cucumber, allow himself to be bought off with an island invitation for a few nibbles at the power buffet? But these and other questions only distract from the Lindner sinking.
You know, Mr. Lindner, I think everyone is allowed to celebrate their wedding the way they want. Minimalist or monstrous. Quietly and elegantly or as a loud shooting party. - But you, Christian, in your position as Finance Minister, have a special responsibility for political decency and respectable political manners. What we saw at the weekend, however, was an FDP schmuck. After the honeymoon, why don't you pay a visit to St. Pauli legend Kalle Schwensen in Hamburg? Let him brief you on what is and isn't acceptable in public. He has more intuition.

...what I find worse than celebrating a wedding with public pomp as Finance Minister and Master of Disaster is the fact that Spahn is squandering 7 billion (masks) and Lauterbach 2.6 billion (Moderna vaccine) with impunity, that board members of the sick health insurance funds receive an immoral 300.000 a year, the funds have reserves of more than 23 billion and regularly talk about a deficit in the funds every year, which is unfortunately why contributions have to be increased - and the number of diapers allowed per day for dementia patients with incontinence is rationed up to the emergency doctor's call-out due to exsiccosis (those who drink less pee less and need fewer diapers). How shameful does the situation have to get before something changes in the long term? When will the insured's money finally be used for necessary services provided by the insurance company and not the insurer, but the doctor determines what is necessary? Where is the supervisory board of the healthcare system at last? ...the parliament...how frustrating...
Once your reputation has been ruined, you can live a completely carefree life.
Idiots govern us, but they are the result of a democratic election. What's going wrong if we only ever get to vote for idiots?
Belzebub or Lucifer? Dear people, decide!
This so-called free press exists, see this website. But the media, with their gigantic reach (e.g. Tagesschau), beat the brains of millions of voters day after day so that nothing but mud can remain! What is our democracy worth?
We are governed by the media and they are not free, but live off the politicians (public law) or are dominated by the private interests of the owners. We are just mutton driven in the desired direction by the real rulers.
First of all, I don't begrudge anyone anything; when I'm envious, it's never about material things. As an important political figure in Germany, Christian Lindner is simply unable to cope with the necessary empathy that his office should entail. This is no surprise to me if he has realized it, but perhaps it is to him, who knows. There's always talk of everyone wanting to be captain, but it's in the storm that we see who's up to it. Let them party like crazy when they're only on duty at the post. Many people have their doubts about him, to be fair he should get his chance, but his insincerity about compulsory vaccination gives little hope. He is thus gambling away the authority of his office, his government team and our national order. Anarchy seems possible, let's hope it doesn't come to that.
Pretty tasteless, that's true.
But in times like these, I don't think that matters any more.
If you feel like it, you can listen to Ms. Fester's verbal outpourings live from the "Pippi Longstocking dream world".
Emilia Johanna Fester is a German politician and the youngest member of the German Bundestag since the 2021 general election.
I'm really tough, but my mouth was open for a moment here.

We trample through the grain, we trample through the seed, hooray we're going stupid, the state pays for us.

It's not about social envy. I don't feel that. It's about shamelessness and tactlessness, impudence, hypocrisy and decadence. And it's also about the political-media complex that Prof. Meyen once addressed in an interview here over a year ago. According to Meyen, this used to be hidden and lived out bashfully and today? "So what!". Lindner is marrying his second female journalist, Rontzheimer has just taken a tank pic and is now already taking a wedding selfie. The state comedian Dieter Nuhr licking caviar live on location? No comment!
Back in front of the TV cameras a day later. Scholz rants incessantly about "underhooks" aka solidarity aka "blind obedience". Cities/municipalities are planning warming halls. People can no longer afford to eat and Habeck says at the same time that he has no time to spend his lavish money ... to the amusement of the ZEIT audience. I'm watching a debate in the Bundestag. Only every tenth seat is taken. Camera pans. The few MPs are bored and playing with their smartphones, lying in their seats, gossiping with their party colleagues during an opposition speech or giggling and nagging during this speech. After all, it was only about trivial matters such as basic rights. One or two school classes are sitting in the stands. I wonder what they think? I think of my own childhood. If I had behaved like that as an eight-year-old in second or third grade, I would have been sent out the door after two minutes or immediately to the principal ... for antisocial behavior. At least Ms. Göring-Eckart is watching out for state-prescribed gender language from Mount Olympus.
Late Roman decadence? That would be an insult to any Roman.
Germany has had it.....the only thing that helps me is alcohol....is no solution....but mineral water no longer solves our problems either...PROST and KOTZ
Crisis? What Crisis? I took out my old Supertramp record from 1975. This cover, more current than ever. I've just heard that the court (which court, certainly not the "most recent") thinks that the income from the mask deals is okay, acquittal, the politicians can keep their millions. A soapbox opera. Next message: Money, money to Ukraine. Just a normal day. Thank you dear Germany. Poor Germany. The Meaning.
how do we finally get this pompous "scene" of uniforms, military blue men's suits dismissed or brought to justice?!
thank you, mr. langemann, for your ingenious art of words in the golden ratio .... may it inspire the readers/citizens to action.
If it had only been the marriage of Mr. Linder and his bride, it is also the marriage of politics and journalism and that is our biggest problem, which is probably why the celebrations were so lavish.
Perhaps Lindner and his ilk simply don't have access to empathic emotional worlds. Or is it the 20,000 euros a month that makes them stupid?
Wolfram Slus. says:
Everyone speaks from the heart, keep it up!
Absolutely true! I'm over 70 and have seen many governments/ministers come and go. There have also been some incompetents and some have left (or been left) because of minor mistakes. But I have never seen such a collection of "imbeciles". Herbert Grönedingens was right: "Put the children in charge, because they don't know what they're doing; children in power, we'll be laughed to scorn!" There is a breathtaking amount of lying, hypocrisy and pandering, and the unspeakable Lindner has now taken this decadence to the extreme. ("If people have no bread, let them eat cake!" Marie Antoinette). And the media applaud... Very sad
... I think it's now over 25,000 euros that a minister receives as a "basic income", there's probably just been a dietary increase? Then there's the +, a kind of Hartz IV exemption from everyday things like a car (official car and chauffeur), etc. In short, I fully agree that if you don't have to manage your daily life yourself but have 1001 little helpers, you lose empathy (if you ever had any).
It was precisely this quote from Marie Antoinette that came to mind when I read this article. These "democratic" politicians are now just as out of touch as the aristocracy of the late 18th century.
I basically agree with your contribution. Nevertheless, a small note:
The "bread and cake" quote - which was actually just about an ordinary brioche - does not come from M. Antoinette, but in a heavily modified form from Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
And Groenemeyer's refrain for the lyrics to "Kinder an die Macht" is:
"Put the children in charge, they don't calculate what they are doing; the world belongs in the hands of children, put an end to the gloom, we will be laughed to pieces; children in power."
Unfortunately, the upper middle and upper classes don't act any differently. As long as the on-board band is still playing on the Titanic, people will dance. Lindner's wedding was just one clearly visible sign of this omnipresent decadence. And middle-class women are eagerly watching this on the COLORFUL PAGES. The motto there is: as long as there is still money, life goes on as usual. We won't let Putin ruin our vacation on Sylt - with a visit to the SANSIBAR, Greti & Pleti's playground - or our cruise. Despite all the anger about Lindner's pompous wedding in these lean times, where is he celebrating? In a hotel in Keitum, where the middle classes drink coffee, and in a beach hut, where he then pretends to be on Nantucket with his feet in the sand... And this Keitum church is simply the place of longing for all little girls in the north, which is why more weddings take place there than anywhere else. And every Schmok can drive up there in a Porsche. So it's all typically German: mediocre taste.
In any case, he - and with him the entire FDP - can no longer fool us. Everyone now knows exactly who we are dealing with here. There is something so obscene about this event in view of the current misery of the citizens, of which everyone can tell something. I'm surprised that there wasn't one person there - and if it had been Mr. Nuhr - who would have shouted: Stop it! You can't do that! We didn't expect that from the priest of St. Severin.
Ever since the church's "vulva painting" and "weapons for peace" programs, we have been deprived of any illusions about the pastoral role of the church. But the question remains: would the pastor have been so willing to open his church doors to Kreti and Pleti without their membership?
Incidentally, Mr. Marco Buschmann commented on the emerging anger that it is such a beautiful thing when two people get married. Anyone who has something against it should perhaps undergo therapy.....Who took the marriage vows? For better or for worse? Perhaps things will soon no longer go so smoothly for the hopeful couple when the bad days also catch up with the politicians. And by the way: Mr. Merz in his fancy plane - paid for from his Black Rock income - will probably soon be bumping into reality.
And by the way: Mr. Lindner has said that he and his lady in the designer dress want 3 or 4 girls or boys very quickly. Does he also have the whole transdiverse66 gender community behind him and Olivia Jones as his godmother? Just asking.
Thank you very much, Mr. Langemann,
for your clear words!!! Fits once again!!!
It's not just Mr. Lindner who is mocking the people, it's the whole self-appointed caste!!! The brazen wage increases alone in these difficult times, which are also being celebrated by this political crash landing!!! We need a nationwide strike in all areas of daily life!!! The few demonstrations only endanger human lives, see Holland, one week still life!!!!
Thank you very much Mr. Langemann, - delicious!
... and I can only agree with Carmen Friedrich...
What else can we expect from the politicians in power?
Nothing ... that must be clear to everyone by now!
These politicians that we did not elect must be exactly as they are, otherwise they would not have their positions. Those who can still think for themselves and have integrity, where are they? Unfortunately, not in the office where they could contribute their skills for the benefit of all. They lack exactly what those in power have in abundance: arrogance, unscrupulousness and madness.
Everything in every life is over at some point. Until then, we endure our current situation by taking personal responsibility, thinking for ourselves, never giving up and never losing faith in a higher, just, divine power.
None of us should forget: the law of resonance ALWAYS works for EVERYONE.
Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And then the invited guests arrive in private jets.... and we are supposed to tighten our belts for the climate.... they mock us and are infinitely distant from the people.
And if he's celebrating big, one day would have been enough!
Dear Mr. Markus Langemann
Social envy arises solely from payer hypnosis, because the mind is apparently cognitively incapable of recognizing that the money source administration never dries up, the liquidity for the exchange of services is always provided!
Nobody pays a cent! Maybe "Clear Words" will help to wake up from hypnosis! Lindner is also hypnotized and cannot think correctly!
Payer hypnosis = breeding ground of LUG and TRUG legalized by law. Waking up from payer hypnosis a way to end the social credit system agenda:
When everyone understands that the mandate to administer the source of money should never have been given to commercial enterprises, because this task fulfills a fiduciary function in symbiosis for the benefit of people and the economy, neither interest nor proprietary transactions nor third-party return capital can be derived from it, then everyone has halfway understood the monetary system!
If everyone now understands that the provision of liquidity (creation of money) for the exchange of services via investments (lending) out of nothing (figures in the bank books) includes all economic factors, including the state and social quota, then they know that the tax and social payer does not exist, but is modeled as a deceptive maneuver via earned income! The state and social quota is booked as a proportion of economic income and is to be passed on directly from the economy to the state as an exchange price. This is also linked to the non-existent demographics; retirement and survival ages are therefore irrelevant. The system would allow us to retire as soon as we are born, provided that our needs are met. The service can be 100% automated, the machine is never a consumer!
This means that we humans are not payers from the outset (hypnosis = false understanding), but exchange our services with the freely available money ration allocated to us from the volume of money generated. This deception is reinforced with the modeling of the tax and social payer, as described above.
Together with the fraudulent mandating of the money source administration (money creation) to commercial enterprises, we are living on the breeding ground of LUG and TRUG. What are the rule of law and democracy? Properly organized, with local competence, we need neither politicians nor parties. They only exist because the breeding ground of LUG and TRUG is legalized by law. The evolution of the mind is lagging far behind!
Mr. GB calls it payer hypnosis and organizational fraud of the most infamous kind, covered up by the judiciary!"
It's not just Lindner who is mocking the people, it's this whole government gang. They are driving the country to ruin with their completely moronic policies and laughing at the same time. Klabauterbach already has a new, even more dangerous virus on his screen, but he doesn't even know how to spell virus. Listing incompetent politicians would go beyond the scope of this article.
Thank you!
the german people elected this guy and now the german people have the weaklings they deserve on the bridge of the ship of fools (strauss)
What percentage of voters voted for the FDP?
So few and the rest of the voters have to deal with it 🙁
the majority of voters were non-voters. Politics has been abandoned by the people. Lindner proves how limited his mental structures are. I feel sorry for him. He's ignoring all the signs and trying to hold on to his space . well, we'll all be able to see how far that will take him.....and we won't have to wait long for that .
You are absolutely right. In the NRW state elections, for example, a full 3.2% of all eligible voters gave their vote to the FDP. Now they are in power here too: https://nrw.diebasis.nrw/das-ehrliche-ergebnis/
Well, ... the government representatives of the traffic light coalition all seem to have somehow subscribed to the folk wisdom "... and once your reputation is ruined, you can live a carefree life...". There is no other way to interpret the pattern of behavior of our finance minister with his very opulently staged marriage.
Very apt!
I can only underline this!!!! It is an unparalleled mockery of the people. For me personally, I hope that day X will come when all these grimaces that get on my nerves are called to account. You withdraw more and more into yourself and stay away from the public broadcasters because you simply can't stand it any more. I just don't want to hear or see it any more. For me, it's all scum.
I agree with every word Mr. Langemann and you have said. What is happening here is unbearable.
@values Corina Bock
Those who believe themselves to be payers walk around as phantoms. This phantom hypnosis allows the puppets on the wire of power to live out their play instinct. If about 10% of people woke up from hypnosis, this agenda would be finished before tomorrow morning!
These figures who see themselves as elite are in fact the dregs of society.
