What is this?
What you see here is a notification being sent to me by the state attorney´s office, residing in the City of Verden. I live in the derestriction of this particular office. It´s saying that a preliminary investigation against me has been discontinued.  A preliminary investigation is being conducted in order to determine as to whether or not the state prosecution would file an indictment which by then would lead to a trial.

The The initial suspicion was Usage of insignia of unconstitutional und terrorist organizations.

§ 86a Criminal Code

The office in Verden is specialized in offences stemming from “IuK Crime” which stands for crimes information- and communications technology environment.

Maniacs on the loose

Now…let me say this. First of all I can’t believe that someone literally too the time and effort to screenshot something and and that he fetched it to the PoPo like a good lil boi. That alone is insane already. Over a picture, mind you. Totally insane.

Apparently this guy was not the brightest candle in the chandelier either because he couldn’t be bothered to check if § 86a Criminal Code actually would apply to ANYTHING being shown on this website, BEFORE he went to the PoPo with his tail wagging.

However… this event made me thinking a little bit and I was wondering what else there might be out there. So let me explain myself real quick. Call it company values if you wish.

Visual appearance

You may wonder why this whole brand looks so “German”, right? Well because it´s a German brand after all, dealing with scale modeling of vehicles of all kinds, stemming from an era of conflict around almost the entire globe. Of course I am using contemporary design elements in my communication. But only that. You can dig as deep as you wish and you won’t find any use of a logo of a political organization. Let me tell you why.

The little girl and the name

There was a scale modeling show back in 2009 and I did some hairspray demos on the club table. I had a lil trolley with me and some bottles of hairspray were sticking out. A buddy said “Dude, you´re looking like a mobile hairdresser. Like Uschi the hairdresser.” Well, that stuck. I liked it because it´s funny. That´s how I got my “street name”.
One fine day I tried to find something on the internet and I came across a particular poster. It was an advertising for joining a particular youth movement. I was like “Wait a minute. That reminds me on something.”

Totalitarism

See, I have been a member of a particular youth movement as well. It was a mandatory process. No questions being asked. It was in East Germany in the 1980s. Junge Pioniere, Thälmannpioniere and FDJ. The whole nine yards. We also had a shirt with some logos on and we a scarf around our necks. It was similar to boy scouts or pathfinders, but with a strong leaning towards communist ideology in the sense of Marx and Lenin. I think pretty much all countries of the Eastern Block had something like this going on.

They came for us, the lil kids and they tried to infuse their ideology into our minds. That´s why this poster with that girl got to me. She and I, we both were born in a totalitarian environment, albeit with a different branding on top of it. Both "brands" claimed they were merely operating “for the best of the people" and they would be very diffwerent from each other. If you´d dig deeper, you´d discover that the dynamics of both of them are "comparable" to say the least. Germany between 1933 and 1945 and East Germany between 1945 to 1989 were basically running on a similar modus operandi. It´s just that they used a different "dogma".

The jails of both of these “brands” were full to the brim with people they "didn’t like". People they could not control. People who were critical thinkers and understood the jist of "the came" and wo called it out.

I condemn any acts of violence against certain demographics and I do not share view points with anyone who is trying to justify mass incarceration, war or even genocide.

I believe in the power of approximation and dialogue across the entire board, across all races and political spheres. We are all neighbors on this planet and as such we should treat each other. I´m not advertising for sitting around a camp fire and singing Kumbaya. The globe aint no pony farm with a Peter Pan mindset being the law of the land. But especially trading, travelling and cultural exchange on an international level are the best tools to tear down intellectual barriers and develop a broadband understanding and knowledge of other cultures and hemispheres. Getting around and observing are the best means to circumvent barriers being set up by people who want to prevent you from thinking independently.

We should also accept that other people might have a different opinion on particular topics. It should not be our business to lecture each other. We should listen to each other more often and reflect. And if we come to the conclusion that certain dogmas or paradigms are outright backwards, oppressive and basically anti-humanist, then let´s call it the EFF out with no boundaries and debate it in public. There is no such thing as political correctness.(PC) It doesnt exist. PC is a tool of cencorship and nothing else. It´s part of a totalitarian design of certain mindsets. It´s a mean of controlling you and the public discurse because words have power.

Having that said, I also may add that we "as a society" should stay vigilant and alert in regards to movements who try repeat some of the funky tricks which were  been played before. There is maniacs out there (and the image above is another proof for it) who either don’t know what they are doing (a.k.a. tool), or those who know full well what they are doing and try to occupy and control the marketplace of power and ideas. (aka tyrant sociopath)

Personally I would advertise for a well-fortified, sovereign democracy which actually deserves its name by definition. And by sovereign I mean that said democracy should focus on the interest of the citizens of the country concerned. Their well-being should be the focal point.

Oath of the Chancellor.

"I swear that I will dedicate my strength to the well-being of the German people, increase their benefits, avert harm from them, uphold and defend the Basic Law and the laws of the Federation, conscientiously fulfill my duties and practice justice towards everyone. So help me God."

BOOM BABY! There aint much more to add to this. Now move out and do your damn job, dawg. If you need an imaginary friend for this, you do you. I dont care. Just do your friggin job, because if you don´t, there might be people showing up on the ballot box draggin you out of office on election day.

We should reach out to the world in the same way as we would reach out to our direct neighbours. With good intensions but alert, smart and aware. That goes for our local environment and it should go for global politics as well.

Lots of words. There were people who were able to put it together more nicely. Like Wilhelm Busch for instance. Let´s wrap this up with a lil poem.

 
The Fox and the Hedgehog.
In German it´s well versed and compact. My attempt on translating it is ruining it totally in regards to its phonetic appearance. But the message is as this:

Unexpectedly on a hill a fox and hedgehog had an encounter.

"Stop! “yelled the fox, "You villain, don't you know the king's order? Hasn't peace been proclaimed, and don't you know that everyone sins who still is armed? In the name of His Majesty - go and surrender your skin!” The hedgehog said: "Just not so fast! Get your teeth broken first; then we shall speak further.` And immediately he turns round, closes its dense bundle of spikes and confidently defies the whole world, armed, but as a hero of peace."

Nuff said.
Ya´ll have a wonderful one.
