If this goes to court, he might get into troubles, because the judges are all compromised. Furthermore he is not the owner of this place. This is a big mall and very likely, he has just rented this place for his café. So if the owner of the mall disagrees, his contract will be finished very soon.

Aldous Huxley in 1932:
"By means of ever more effective methods of mind manipulation, the democracies will change their nature:
the quaint old forms - elections, parliaments, Supreme Courts and all the rest will remain.
The underlying substance will be a new kind of totalitarianism.
All the traditional names, all the hallowed slogans will remain exactly what they were in the good old days.
Democracy and freedom will be the theme of every broadcast and editorial.
Meanwhile the ruling Oligarchy and its highly trained elite of soldiers, policemen, thought manufacturers, and mind manipulators
will quietly run the show as they see fit."

This is exactly, what happened to the Roman republic under Octavianus. There was still a senate, there were still elections of state officials like consuls, praetors, tribuns, aedils etc. but there was the emperor. There were wars against Germans, Britains etc. just for fun, to show how powerful this emperor was. These wars were exactly like the wars US is waging against Third World countries like Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan etc.
In all Antiquity there were never so many slaves as under the Roman emperor. The plebs was officially free, but was bought with free bread from Egypt and Ukraine to take part in fake elections.

This parallelism to modern times is explained extensively in:





from 1918 and 1922.

"Hysteric disguised as politician": Swiss publication takes Lauterbach to task
https://de.rt.com/europa/121084-als-politiker-getarnter-hysteriker-schweizer/

On Monday, the online publication dieostschweiz.ch then devoted itself to the "Lauterbach phenomenon", a "hysteric" disguised as a politician. This sets the tone for the outside view of the SPD politician.

What is true for Germany is equally true for Switzerland: for more than a year, virtually all political talk shows have revolved around the topic of "Corona"; and there, in the opinion of author Stefan Millius, Lauterbach is almost ideally cast, because Lauterbach, the editor-in-chief of Die Ostschweiz is certain:

"Lauterbach is the accident on the motorway made flesh."

The viewer is creeped out, and yet he feels attracted to what is happening before his own eyes, according to the presumed logic behind the 58-year-old's talk show presence. And yet another logic of the ratings-hungry media is all too virtuously served by Lauterbach: the obviously insatiable fascination that emanates from tragedy and apocalypse. The Corona hysteria diagnosed by Millius is a current example of this.

Lauterbach, in turn, is according to this reading "the symbol of ongoing hysteria", because "it doesn't matter how much panic is otherwise already being conjured up", "Lauterbach always goes one better".

"With him, everything is always a few rounds worse, more disastrous, more dramatic. He doesn't know anything like relaxation, more than that: it puts him in a tizzy."

What is worrying, he says, is that Lauterbach does not come to terms with his "inner paranoia" but, for no less pathological reasons, is virtually forced to impose it on others - "as if in a fever frenzy".

Seen from this perspective, "Corona" is a godsend for the SPD member, who has not yet received any higher political honours, and is as natural as it is compelling: "a mixture of Ebola, Spanish flu and the plague. From the very beginning".

"Any mere idea of a mutation that might increase the whole is his lifeblood. He can't believe that people are still out in the open air, and if they do it without masks, they are some kind of serial killers for him."

In the author's opinion, Lauterb doesn't give much thought to the substance of his statements and conjectures. He doesn't have to, because the memory of the modern media recipient is too short and the professional politician too nimble when it comes to scattering new interpretations and one-sided information. Lauterbach simply "hops to the next scene of mankind's certain demise" and thus remains master of his own Corona narrative.

"Lauterbach does not even wait until he and his apocalyptic prophecies are refuted. He is then already a kilometre ahead again."

Further to note, his ex-wife, a real doctor and epidemiologist, has warned against him.

Since I don't know everything about everything, I have a question - or a suspicion. Is it possibly only partly about the official "reason" - or is it being used as an opportunity - to sabotage the B&R plans? Or is it to pester the "bear" from the side as well? After all, the "Arab Spring" also started with justified protests, but what this "Leader of Kazakhstan Democratic Choice party" is saying seems very Western-inspired to me.

It is very annoying for Russia and China. One railroad from Beijing to Europe is now cut.
