I think that those who are so cheering and applauding yesterday's preliminary injunction by the Constitutional Court do not understand at all what kind of game is being played here.
This is not a foreign trip at all (although the president was told about it from some<\/em><\/strong> There are many reasons...), but this is a dangerous rewriting of constitutional order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Democracy should be based on the will of the people<\/strong>, which is expressed through parliamentary elections, because our country is parliamentary<\/strong> and not presidential or EU globalist "\u201edemocracy<\/em>\u201e".
I write intentionally. \u201e"should be"\u201c<\/em><\/strong>, but I'm afraid that this has long since ceased to be the case in our country (and in many other EU countries). What is the point of elections if activist media, globally paid non-profits and now even the courts will do everything they can to change the will of the people? And if that were not enough, there is also the EU with its fines, threats and other pressures to make the ONLY<\/strong> they promoted the right opinion...<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hallmark of a dictatorship is that ONE <\/strong>The party controls all pillars of the state and there is censorship of opinions \u2013 so what was previously only under the surface has now erupted to the surface like an ulcer, and we have witnessed it.
Even though people still have the apparent ability to choose, completely different forces control the earth in the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I'm afraid the workers cheered similarly when Gottwald returned from the Castle in '48. (by the way, constitutionally and formally also seemingly completely fine...)<\/em> and a few years later they bitterly regretted their naivety when the first harsh trials came, which ultimately affected them as well.
But people back then had no experience and no information \u2013 today they have both and yet they so blindly and stupidly cheer for another small step towards a gray corporate-globalist digital totalitarianism, which is, however, beautifully shiny, attractive and with a human face \u2013 all for your own good.<\/strong>..<\/p>\n
