“A Betrayal of Our People”

Germany is rapidly approaching a major historical cusp. The currently unfolding “refugee” crisis is greater than any the Germans have faced since May 1945. And, in a way, the present crisis is far worse, because it threatens the very existence of Germany as a nation and a people.

In 1945 the Germans were able to emerge from the smoking ruins to rebuild their country. In thirty or forty years there will only be Turks, Afghans, and Syrians squatting in the ruins, with no Germans around to rebuild anything. If present trends continue, Götterdämmerung will arrive in a generation or sooner.

In reference to the aftermath of the Paris massacre, a German contact recently sent us this note:

They will persecute us even more now.

Use google-translator on this article to see what I mean. We will have civil war within the next 2-3 months. The later, the more bloody it will be.

I hate to see any blood shed. But this time there is no other way out. Not at all. We warned for ten years this will happen and they did not listen.

If he’s right (and he’s a sane and sober fellow, not at all an alarmist), then it’s important for us to keep a chronicle of events for as long as we can, so that there can be some sort of record outside Germany of this dire moment in history.

The following speech given by Björn Höcke in Erfurt a couple of months ago is one of those important moments that cries out to be chronicled. The sound quality in the video is poor, so Rembrandt Clancy has kindly summarized it in English, with extensive translated quotes.

“A Betrayal of Our People”
Summary by Rembrandt Clancy

This demonstration took place in Erfurt on Wednesday 23 September against the asylum policy of both the state and federal governments. Die Welt estimated 5,000 participants, which may mean there were a great many more. The demonstrators marched through the city centre to the main plaza where they heard Björn Höcke speak.
He begins by giving examples of the displacement of Germans in favour of immigrants.

In Landshut, in Bavaria, a giant tent was dismantled after the end of a fair, because Asylum seekers were supposed to be billeted there.

In Saxony-Anhalt a barracks was vacated to manage the accommodation of 700 Asylum seekers. The soldiers moved into tents in the military training area.

In the eastern North Rhine-Westphalian city of Lübbecke, the headmistress of the Jahn Secondary School received a call. At 17:30 she learned that her school was to be vacated the next day. In period 5, the students were informed that they must leave the school at once. I quote the headmistress, who in tears said these words which I now impart to you: “My students too are people. One cannot treat them in such a way. They were given 15 minutes to clear their things from the classrooms. Then they had to get out. It was flight, like after the war!”

“It is our citizens’ duty to reconquer this constitutional state for our people, dear friends,” said Mr. Höcke.

We are going to show these crazed pseudo-elites the red card! And we profess today that there is no blanket welcoming-drunkenness; there is a refusal of the asylum madness in this country, which is at least just as strong and it is well-founded.

The former Czech President Václav Klaus characterised Merkel’s welcoming policy as “naive”, “irresponsible” and “suicidal”. Merkel and her kindergarten cabinet are destroying our country! She must go, dear friends!”

This last statement occasions Mr. Höcke to mention the proximate aim of his party, the AfD (Alternative für Deutschland):

We need new elections. And I say to you: It will be a hot autumn. And it will be a cold winter. And I predict for the next year that there will be new elections in the Federal Republic of Germany!

Next Mr. Höcke deals with the press:

Let us take a look at the media, which we have always with us. Standing shoulder to shoulder with the old parties, they are to keep political competition at a minimum — you know that. The first method is silence. The second method is falsification. And the third method is stigmatisation. With respect to silence, the Thüringer Allgemeine is absolutely top class, dear friends! On 24 August of this year, when I made the only opposition speech in the Thuringian Landtag and clearly highlighted the phraseology of integration of the old-parties, exactly nil appeared the next day’s edition of the Thüringer Allgemeinen Zeitung. The AfD was not mentioned in one single sentence.

“They are also practised in falsification”, said Mr. Höcke of the newspaper. In the demonstration of the previous week the Thüringer Allgemeine reported on the Internet that “More people were present at the counter-demonstration than at the AfD demonstration.” Mr. Höcke adds, “I cracked myself up for laughing, dear friends!” He reports that the police conservatively estimated 1,200 AfD participants and 100 or 200 counter-demonstrators.

It is disgraceful in a free country, for journalists not to rise above such failures. This has nothing to do with free and critical reporting. That is DDR-level, dear friends.

Mr. Höcke came to the final step, stigmatisation, which is also very much favoured.

And so we, and also the AfD are placed in the right-wing nationalist, right-wing populist and right-wing extremist corner. Exactly as are you! And yet we are the people! Wir sind das Volk! Wir sind das Volk! Wir sind das Volk! Wir sind das Volk! I say this emphatically: silence, falsification and stigmatisation do not belong to freedom of the press, dear Thuringians.

He points out how this left-fascistic press is supported by tax money. However, he praises the Thüringische Landeszeitung for their factual reports on the demonstrations.

The Germans will not give up their land and their identity. They will not allow themselves to be eliminated after a thousand years of existence. Then Mr. Höcke turns to Erfurt in particular. The destruction of cities has to a considerable extent captured a large part of our collective memory. But Erfurt was largely spared the bombing of the Second World War. Mr. Höcke introduces a symbol of spiritual centeredness, which takes the form of the city of Erfurt itself. He sees a city which is in unity. In the very middle of it is the cathedral, which shows that man does not live by bread alone, nor does he live only for bread. It is surrounded by the proud houses of the citizens. It is a community of responsibility and harmony which has taken centuries to grow. Erfurt is beautiful and German, and is to remain beautiful and German.

Mr. Höcke says the NDR broadcaster had engaged a psychoanalyst by the name of Hans Joachim Maaz. He does not know how much of the TV licence revenue was used to pay for this psychoanalyst’s diagnosis. According to Maaz, the peoples’ unconscious drives them out onto the street. And their unconscious in turn is dominated by problems of the post-reunification period.

Mr. Höcke mentions the contagious diseases that are being brought into the country:

Now we swing around once more to the illness of those applying for asylum. In the Social Committee in Jena, a representative of the local health department gave a report. She said: “Diseases which are not preventable are again on the march. And the Germans have — on account of the supposed eradication of measles, mumps and German measles — a vaccination status which gives cause for concern. The population is no longer protected. Epidemics such as tuberculosis, typhus, HIV are again on the march.” So declares the lady in office.

In Dusseldorf the suspicion of highly dangerous and highly contagious active tuberculosis in an asylum applicant has been confirmed.

He invites the federal Vice-Chancellor, Sigmar Gabriel, to come to Erfurt and speak with him.

And I call upon you, Herr Gabriel. Be a match for me! Come to Erfurt and see me, Mr. Traitor of the People…

…and dear colleague, Hennig-Wellsow [chairman of the Thuringian party, die Linke, the Left Party], . . . I can assure you and the other traitors of the people, of the Greens and of the Dark Reds and of the Reds, and what else there is, also the Blacks [Anarchists], that this country finds itself on its way down into the abyss.

Mr. Höcke mentions an SPD [Social Democratic Party] strategy paper:

‘to be an immigration society means that not only people who come to us must integrate, but also the people who are already in the country’. The Germans are supposed to integrate in their own country; but that is absurd, dear friends!

And the Germans were never asked if they want to integrate. He demands a referendum.

50% of the Afghanis are illiterate. Who is supposed to teach them the German language? Who is supposed to educate them? Who is going to employ them? The ifo-Institute in Munich considers it is unrealistic to employ any appreciable number, and not at all for a minimum wage of €8.50 per hour.

The ifo-Institute advocates abolishing the minimum wage, and Höcke says that is the plan.

So, the minimum wage is supposed to be abolished, says the ifo-Institute. . . . We have in reality 5 million unemployed, 5 million unemployed. And we are now bringing millions of illiterates and unskilled people into the country, dear friends, in order to employ them as scabs. That is a catastrophe. That is the end of the welfare state, of the social peace in this land. That is in fact a betrayal of our people.

“I say it once more”, Mr. Höcke continues with emphasis, “ We need no integration of refugees”:

For those who are living among us permanently, the pressure to assimilate must be increased. And for that two things are necessary dear Thuringians; first, for that we require, love of self. Only when we are finally ourselves once again, only when we learn to love our country will we be attractive to foreigners and then they will also want to be Germans. And secondly, we need a radical limitation on immigration.

Then Mr. Höcke puts forth what amounts to a sociological law when it comes to assimilation, which he distinguishes from integration. (Integration is a “mutual process” which “produces something new” and “the Germans were never asked if they wish to integrate”.) In the case of assimilation, it is the collective which decides whether it works. The speaker offers an example. The relatively few Turkish children in Erfurt speak the Erfurt dialect. But the few German children in Berlin, they speak Kanak-Sprak [this is an informal designation for a sub-cultural jargon made up of two languages. In this case, after two or three generations, the Turks in Berlin speak a hybrid of German and Turkish. Currently the German minority in Berlin are speaking this hybrid]. Thus the collective determines the level of assimilation.

In closing, Mr. Höcke calls for the demonstrators to free themselves from this life-destroying “hypermoralism”. He says that the German people are not morally obliged to dismantle everything they and their forefathers have built up, and to do so even to the point of self-destruction. They are not obliged to sacrifice their collective substance and political culture to the hopes of immigrants. And they are not obliged to become a minority in their own country and relinquish their self-determination to an immigrant majority.

In conclusion, dear Thuringians and dear guest from other federal states, an urgent request of you. Free yourselves, let us free ourselves from the claws this anti-life hypermoralism. We, we, the German people, are not morally obliged to sacrifice the constructive accomplishments of a lifetime, and those of our forefathers, to the point of the self-destruction of our collective substance and its political culture, to the hopes of immigrants. …

  1. What a wonderful article.
    Germany needs more real “men with chests,” to quote C.S. Lewis, or it will surely perish, as will all of Western Europe.

    • Most all with few exceptions of the German men (and other E.U. males) have been sissified and gelded and cowardly for refusing to take a stand for their heritage and families and standing by during these invasions. I am amazed at the apathy in all E.U. countries. I expect to see Europe fall under a caliphate and shiria law soon with mass killings to incl the E.U. leaders that are no longer useful idiots. Too bad they didn’t learn from history or appreciate anything from previous generations like their culture.

    • Yes, Germany needs more ‘chest’ perhaps. But it really needs a lot more willing penises and vaginas.

      Right now, native Germans are reproducing at below replacement rates in common with Scots, Italians, Greeks, Spaniards and other nationalities. Socialism has that effect.

      But is it any wonder Merkel feels compelled to bring in males from the Muslim world of employment age to pay taxes to support Germany’s massive welfare state?

      It’s a stupid decision on her part, since these ‘refugees’ will cost far more on tax dollars (including dealing with disease, crime and the loss of income from Germany’s very productive Jews as they are forced to flee) than they will ever contribute in taxes, and they will bring a hostile culture with them as well. Look at France and Britain for examples.

      But that’s what’s ultimately behind it.

      • All this talk of low birthrates, or more precisely, an aging population and no one in the EU has ever set up a plan to encourage the next generation to have children.
        There are plans that consist of paying people to have children, something that likely appeals only to those at the bottom given the amounts involved and the lack of interest in promoting families to those with the means to support them.
        Nothing though addresses the underlying issue that marriage, family, children are discouraged in all forms of pop culture and that the attendant values/morals/behaviours required to create a safe environment for children to grow up in are attacked by so called “progressives” for being oppressive remnants of fascistic, patriarchal systems that need to be torn down.
        Any behaviour that goes against traditional values is now acceptable, even in public across a wide swathe of the western world.
        We’re an entire generation into the politically correct world, which has given us a generation of young adults who don’t vote and who don’t seem to understand that our civilisation actually requires ourselves to remain the majority for it to continue, actually requires ourselves to actively participate in it for it to continue.
        Why would any non-Western immigrant want to adopt the culture of any Western country when the average Westerner doesn’t think we even have a culture worth preserving, that the culture of any immigrant is just as valid and important as our own?
        Our children need to be taught their heritage and the importance of our civilisation to them, their future, and the importance of having families rather than extensive holidays or endless drug and drink fuelled parties, that families are just as important as a good job.

  2. “A Betrayal of Our People”

    God died when Nietzsche was born ( went to hell in 1900) . And gradually, one by one, the geniuses of Europe declared that they did not need God. That they discovered that they are gods.

    So now every politician is god in his own right: They decided to import invaders and we can’t say no. Betrayal and loyalty exchanged positions in their perverted minds. To prove that they need no Jehovah, or Moses or Jesus, they started to destroy Judaeo-Christianity and uprooting them and every derivative related.

    In Europe they threw the baby with the ugly water. They did not realized that they should keep the baby. Baby and dirty water are not equal.

    Today Europe has the same mentality: They think that invaders and native citizens are equal: God forbid: invaders are better than natives: Proof: In Germany and Sweden ( the one master race the other even more advanced : humanists), – – – both evacuated their own native decent, meek citizens to make room for the new Master Race : INVADERS, stupid! I am mad. Not literally.

  3. Bjorn Hocke is beginning to dismantle the ideology of PC Marxism which was not only NOT destroyed after WW2, but infected all our universities. It was embraced as the hope for a Secular Utopia. This IS the Secular Utopia! Economic stagnation due to the Entitlement State, cultural ravishment by not only a huge influx of non-Western migrants, but the trashing of Christianity which has led to the self-indulgent, drug-abusing, suicidal, self-harming, superficial Mickey Mouse culture of despair which plagues our youth today.

    We need to rediscover the value of every human life, which is denigrated by Islam, by most traditional Third World cultures and also by the throw-away Western attitude. We need the application of Human Rights law – not to Victim Groups, but to individuals, Above all we have to stop seeing society as a perpetual witch hunt for oppressors, creating division and animosity, and discover what we have in common. We need an open discussion about the merit and comparison of cultural values, instead of pretending they are all equal. Finally we have to stop apologizing for our historical errors, not because they didn’t occur, but because firstly, they are not the full story and secondly, the histories of those who claim to be our victims are themselves replete with every barbarity imaginable, as well.

  4. This is moving:

    Mr. Höcke introduces a symbol of spiritual centeredness, which takes the form of the city of Erfurt itself.

    He sees a city which is in unity.

    In the very middle of it is the cathedral, which shows that man does not live by bread alone, nor does he live only for bread.

    It is surrounded by the proud houses of the citizens.

    It is a community of responsibility and harmony which has taken centuries to grow.

    Erfurt is beautiful and German, and is to remain beautiful and German.
    ______________________

    How fortunate for the people of Erfurt to be so described. This is mature self-regard, the foundation for an expression of the other kinds of “love” – be it eros, storge, philia, or the ultimate call to agape. I cannot imagine an American political leader of any stripe capable of speaking the way Mr. Hocke does. For us, the public square is being thronged by demonstrations of such malignant narcissism they’re hard to watch. This latest eruption of whining, whingeing, deeply infantile college students in the U.S. whose ever thinning skin is being abraded by the real sandpaper world is alarming in its implications.

    By the time of their physical maturation, these eternal children and the ‘leaders’ who encourage their tantrums will face the plunge into darkness that must occur when the accumulation of government and personal indebtedness reaches a state of super-saturation in a medium never meant to carry such a load…

    …none of them have any coping skills for living in a world without phones smarter than they are.

    Few Americans have the skill to live in the world planned for us by Iran – i.e., the EMP disruptions we could easily harden against, but don’t. With the exception of Maine I don’t think any state leaders are making contingency plans for such a disaster, one which our president has made even more likely.

    • Didn’t Tocqueville predict that American democracy would end like that? Smart guy, this Monsieur Tocqueville. It’s the same mental illness all over the Western World.

      Diana West has written a book about the death of the grown-ups. It’s a correct observation, and the main reason is socialism, but I also think it has something to do with democracy itself.

      Before ww.2 there was a large number of intellectual giants in Europe, and a few, I think in the U.S. But after the war there was very few left (I’m not including socialist charlatans in the category of intellectual giants). I’m starting to wonder if the two world wars drained the western world of crucial intellectual capital in a prosess of negative selection. Anyway, socialism has corroded our societies beyond salvation. Our glorious leaders are no longer able to meet danger with appropriate action, instead they revert to symbolic acts.

      Like Eric Voegelin (one of the intellectual giants I had in mind) wrote in “The New Science of Politics” in 1952:

      “Gnostic societies [socialistic societies] and their leaders will recognize dangers to their existence when they develop, but such dangers will not be met by appropriate actions in the world of reality. They will rather be met by magic operations in the dream world, such as dissaproval, moral condemnation, declarations of intention, resolutions, appeals to the opinion of mankind, branding of enemies as aggressors, outlawing of war, propaganda for world peace and world government, etc. The intellectual and moral corruption which expresses itself in the aggregate of such magic operations may pervade a society with the weird, ghostly atmosphere of a lunatic asylum, as we experience it in our time in the western crisis.”

      And the reason for our inability to understand reality is, of course, the effects of utopian socialism. Voegelin writes:

      “The identification of dream and reality as a matter of principle has practical results which may appear strange but can hardly be considered surprising. the critical exploration of cause and effect in history is prohibited; and consequently the rational co-ordination of means and ends in politics is impossible.”

      Eric Voegelin has given me some valuable insights into the madness of our time. The crisis of the West that Voegelin and others diagnosed back in the fifties has now reached breaking point, a point of no return. The collapse is imminent, and perhaps necessary. The maleur of socialisms has now infected our societies entirely and makes it impossible for our civilization to survive in its present form.

      • Here’s a good review of Voegelin’s book:

        https://bonald.wordpress.com/book-reviews-politics/the-new-science-of-politics/

        This short book, originally called Truth and Representation, is, in my opinion, the greatest work of political philosophy produced in the twentieth century, and it has had a profound influence on me.

        Voegelin examines societies by exploring the symbols they use to understand themselves. The very self-consciousness of a people as a distinct group (of which the state is one expression) is one such symbol, the symbol of “existential representation.” Whatever else they express, the public institutions of a society (e.g. the state) express the people’s existence as an organized group. Of course, most societies see deeper meanings in their organizations than mere existence. Ancient societies see themselves as part of a cosmic order, like the laws of nature or the motions of the stars. This is the symbol of “cosmological representation”.

        BTW, that review is one loooong paragraph.

      • Quite a number of the pre-WW2 “intellectual giants” of Europe were infatuated with communism (“useful idiots”), fascism or even both.

        Some of the current generation may have dropped fascism from their list, but seem sufficiently deluded to substitute worship of third-world “cultures”, the “Palestinians” being particularly popular.

  5. The phrase “Merkel and her kindergarten cabinet” should be replaced with ” Merkel and her satanic cabinet”…

  6. Germany is indispensable with regard to Europe and to the West as a whole. Ultimately, the Germans will never be able to mount any sort of defense against their destruction unless they rediscover the value of patriotism and Fatherland. Individuals such as Björn Höcke, Lutz Bachmann, Michael Stürzenberger, Beatrix von Storch, and others are needed in such dire times as these.

  7. “The Germans will not give up their land and their identity. They will not allow themselves to be eliminated after a thousand years of existence.”

    In fact it’s at least two thousand years, Germania already existed as an ethno-cultural realm and was recognized as such in Roman republican-early imperial times.

  8. “But the few German children in Berlin, they speak Kanak-Sprak [this is an informal designation for a sub-cultural jargon made up of two languages. In this case, after two or three generations, the Turks in Berlin speak a hybrid of German and Turkish. Currently the German minority in Berlin are speaking this hybrid].”

    I actually have a phrasebook for this pidgin-dialect, it is half-German half-gibberish, a true cultural descent into primitivity.

  9. “The ifo-Institute advocates abolishing the minimum wage, and Höcke says that is the plan.

    So, the minimum wage is supposed to be abolished, says the ifo-Institute. . . . We have in reality 5 million unemployed, 5 million unemployed. And we are now bringing millions of illiterates and unskilled people into the country, dear friends, in order to employ them as scabs. That is a catastrophe. That is the end of the welfare state, of the social peace in this land. That is in fact a betrayal of our people.”

    Absolutely. This is pleb-crushing class-warfare and multicultural Islamizing hijra-jihad in one, a truly monstrous abomination, a Frankenstein hybrid let loose on the German people by a clique of mad-scientist social vandals and national traitors without equal.
