Scholé News – September 2024

Dear friends of Scholé,

The election year 2024 is marked by strong tensions. More and more citizens who for years or decades would have described themselves as social, liberal and environmentally aware no longer recognise their former political home. Hard-won social rights of citizens were sacrificed to the measures against Covid. In the fight against a climate catastrophe calculated by computers, the protection of real landscapes, trees, birds or smallholders hardly plays a role any more, and the fight of the politically correct against alleged disinformation is leading to the loss of freedom of expression.

The new centre is made up of governing and government-friendly parties, regardless of which end of the political spectrum they previously belonged to. Opposition parties, but also individual citizens critical of the government, are wholesale defined as right-wing extremist by state broadcasting and the state-funded mainstream media. In this way, the clearly anti-democratic elimination of the opposition can be legitimised as a fight against right-wing extremism, and even sold as saving democracy.

How could it come to this?

Basically, the wicked game being played with us has a long tradition. The Renaissance princes advised by Machiavelli already understood perfectly how to exploit not only the fears but also the idealism of their subjects, and then turn it against them. Whoever wants to catch fish puts bait on the hook. Whoever sets a trap baits it with the favourite food of the animals they are after. When a government wants to get citizens to take part in its plans, it appeals to their ideals. Solidarity served as the bait during the Covid period, saving European values is supposed to justify the destruction of Ukraine, and warding off a new Nazi regime ennobles the exclusion of the opposition.

The Church, too, understood very well how to combine fear and idealism, vice and virtue, and instrumentalise them for its purposes. The well-behaved believers who dragged all too wilful fellow citizens to the stake as witches had no bad conscience about this flagrant violation of the fifth commandment. Since they had been successfully indoctrinated, they could even feel like particularly good Christians, for with their bloodlust they had saved Holy Mother Church and cleansed her of dangerous heretics… Woe to the onlooker who had expressed a different view!

Rulers and ruled

The wicked game with idealism, which is so easily misused, will not stop as long as people delegate their decisions to authorities and allow them to decide over them. This applies not only to us as citizens or voters, but all the more to the so-called representatives of the people, who have mutated into henchmen of anonymous principals. Elected politicians cravenly hide behind the requirements of apparently independent, but in truth privately financed, global organisations. Shamelessly they invoke the recommendations of the WHO, the climate targets of the UN or the information sovereignty of private news agencies.

PPP – public-private partnership – is the euphemistic name for today’s global fascism, i.e. the bundling of state and economic power. This corresponds exactly to the correct definition of the term fascism (fasces is Latin for bundle). Precisely because they absolutely want to distract from this embarrassing fact, the protagonists of the overpowering cartel of politics and business attach such importance to falsely equating the word fascist with antisemite and enemy of the state, in order then, with the help of the mass media, to defame all critics as fascists in this sense.

Investigative journalism

Thanks to the alternative media, the lies of these political actors have ever shorter legs, and systems riddled with lies and deceit are showing more and more cracks and fissures. Secret machinations lose their effect once they have been exposed, and the further the worldwide process of uncovering advances, the more clearly we can see how closely very different problems of society are interlinked:

Whether in business, politics, science or technology – it is always about competition, struggle and war, which are supposedly unavoidable to secure prosperity and peace. The propaganda lies vary according to the spirit of the times and the circumstances. The warmongers only have to thread their lies cleverly enough for each side to believe it is defending the good by fighting heroically against the evil on the other side. Only when we see through this age-old rigged game and finally recognise the bigger picture will we find new solutions beyond struggle and war.

The vanguard of the human family

The pioneers who have already reached this point know very well where the journey is going. Indeed, they can already perceive the quality of the new world in its beginnings: deep inside they already feel part of the future human family. It will be organised like a single great organism in which every single cell has its special task and knows its unique significance for the whole.

Just as the human organism would not be viable without its microbiome, the countless microorganisms integrated into our body, so the organism of humanity will integrate the plant and animal world and in this way help the entire planet Earth rise into a higher dimension.

This mysterious process cannot be grasped with the intellect. But in more and more people the inner senses are evidently developing, enabling them to distinguish between lies and truth without long reflection, to make the right decisions at the right moment with sleepwalking certainty, to know intuitively what the person in front of them needs. They experience the omnipresence of the divine without having to give it a name, and in doing so experience how the changeable FEELING of love turns into the lasting STATE of love. Who could ever entangle them in struggles and wars again?

2nd edition of “Lernen ist wie Atmen” (Learning is like breathing)

The 2nd edition of our book meets a completely changed readership.

In 2017, the idea that learning outside school was possible at all was considered the eccentric notion of a few outsiders. Since then, all parents, whether they wanted to or not, have had to deal with forms of learning outside school.

The number of children withdrawn from school has exploded since then, and alternative learning projects are springing up like mushrooms.
