  • germans far right is exactly the same. leaked chats showed the most vile disgusting shit. but the sad part is, that you don’t even need those leaked chats. official politicians suggested shooting at immigrants, killing opponents and getting rid of our grundgesetz (which resembles your constitution).

    but ask “moderate” if we should use our law that allows us to prohibit parties that clearly attack our grundgesetz and they will come up with the law of free speech (which doesn’t apply in this case). the irony: the far right already made clear that free speech of the first thing to go when they are in charge.

    for gods sake read some karl popper: you can’t tolerate the intolerant! free speech can only justify free speech as long as that speech doesn’t attack the freedom of others.





  • if this was the article, i totally understand zeit.

    ai wei wei is boring and prude. i never warmed up for his superficial art. basically jeff koons but with a selfrightous moral highground.

    but i always thought he would offer something else. he is a well known human rights activist after all. then i read this lazy observation. maybe i thought there has to be more to the man than his art, he is worldwide known as a critic of nations and governments after all.

    so i looked into his positions and “art”. the only word that sounded sincere was that he doesn’t understand art. the other stuff is a common ground, free from controversy. yes there is war and human rights are ignored, but ask yourself the following: if you asked chatgpt for it’s positions on human rights or an idea for controversial art - would the answer differ much from ai wei weis works?
