O’Brien lächelte leise. »Sie sind kein Metaphysiker, Winston«, sagte er. »Bis jetzt hatten Sie nie in Betracht gezogen, was mit Existenz gemeint ist. Ich will es deutlicher ausdrücken. Existiert die Vergangenheit konkret – im Raum? Gibt es irgendwo einen Ort, eine Welt greifbarer Dinge, wo die Vergangenheit noch in Erscheinung tritt?«
»Nein.«
»Wo dann existiert die Vergangenheit, wenn überhaupt?«
»In Aufzeichnungen. Sie ist niedergeschrieben.«
»In Aufzeichnungen. Und?«
»Im Denken. Im Gedächtnis der Menschen.«
»Im Gedächtnis. Nun, dann also gut. Wir, die Partei, kontrollieren alle Aufzeichnungen, und wir kontrollieren alle Erinnerungen. Demnach also kontrollieren wir die Vergangenheit, oder nicht?«
»Aber wie könnt ihr die Menschen daran hindern, sich an Dinge zu erinnern?« rief Winston, der wieder einen Augenblick die Skala vergaß. »Es geschieht unwillkürlich. Man kann nichts dagegen tun. Wie könnt ihr das Gedächtnis kontrollieren? Meines habt ihr nicht kontrolliert!«
O’Briens Verhalten wurde wieder streng. Er legte die Hand auf die Zahlenscheibe. »Umgekehrt«, sagte er. »Sie haben es nicht kontrolliert. Das hat Sie hierher gebracht. Sie sind hier, weil Sie es an Demut, an Selbstdisziplin haben fehlen lassen. Sie wollten den Akt der Unterwerfung nicht vollziehen, der der Preis ist für geistige Gesundheit. Sie zogen es vor, ein Verrückter, eine Minderheit von einem einzelnen zu sein. Nur der geschulte Geist erkennt die Wirklichkeit, Winston.
Sie glauben, Wirklichkeit sei etwas Objektives, äußerlich Vorhandenes, aus eigenem Recht Bestehendes. Auch glauben Sie, das Wesen der Wirklichkeit sei an sich klar. Wenn Sie sich der Selbsttäuschung hingeben, etwas zu sehen, nehmen Sie an, jedermann sehe das gleiche wie Sie. Aber ich sage Ihnen, Winston, die Wirklichkeit ist nicht etwas an sich Vorhandenes. Die Wirklichkeit existiert im menschlichen Denken und nirgendwo anders. Nicht im Denken des einzelnen, der irren kann und auf jeden Fall bald zugrunde geht: nur im Denken der Partei, die kollektiv und unsterblich
ist.
Was immer die Partei für Wahrheit hält, ist Wahrheit. Es ist unmöglich, die Möglichkeit anders als durch die Augen der Partei zu sehen. Diese Tatsache müssen Sie wieder lernen, Winston. Dazu bedarf es eines Aktes der Selbstaufgabe, eines Willensaufwandes. Sie müssen sich demütigen, ehe Sie geistig gesund werden können.«

Hitachi Develops a New RFID with Embedded Antenna µ-Chip –Makes Possible Wireless Links that Work Using Nothing More Than a 0.4mm X 0.4mm Chip, One of the World‘s Smallest ICs–
(September 2, 2003)
This newly developed version, however, features an internal antenna, enabling chips to employ the energy of incoming electrical waves to wirelessly transmit its ID number to a reader. The 0.4mm X 0.4mm chip can thus operate entirely on its own, making it possible to use µ-Chip as RFID IC tags without the need to attach external devices. This breakthrough opens the door to using µ-Chips as RFID IC tags in extremely minute and precise applications that had been impractical until now. For example, the new µ-Chip can be easily embedded in bank notes, gift certificates, documents and whole paper media etc.
Wi-Vi: See through Walls with Wi-Fi signals
Jun 2, 2013
Wi-Vi is a new technology that enables seeing through walls using Wi-Fi signals. The video shows the output of Wi-Vi (blue window) when a person moves around in a room. It can track whether there is a moving human inside the room and how he is moving.
A.I. Generating Dreams & Turning Wi-Fi Routers Into Cameras to See Through Walls
Jul 3, 2023

aging the latest paper the one that
0:02
happened even after this which is
0:03
already better uses stable diffusion
0:06
uses the thing that you use to make art
0:09
like what should a thing that you use to
0:10
make art have anything to do with
0:11
reading your brain but of course it goes
0:13
further so in this one they said can
0:16
they understand
0:18
um the inner monologue the things you‘re
0:20
saying to yourself in your own mind my
0:23
dude by the way when you dream your
0:24
dream like your visual cortex runs in
0:26
Reverse so your dreams are no longer
0:28
safe
0:29
um but we‘ll try this so they had people
0:31
watch a video and just narrate what was
0:33
going on in the video in their mind so
0:35
there‘s a woman she gets hit in the back
0:37
she falls over this is what the computer
0:40
reconstructed the person thinking
0:43
see a girl looks just like me get hit in
0:45
the back and then she is knocked off
0:48
so our thoughts like are starting to be
0:51
decoded
0:53
yeah just think about what this means
0:55
for authoritarian States for instance
0:58
or if you want to generate images that
1:00
maximally activate your pleasure sensor
1:03
anything else okay but let‘s keep going
1:04
right to really get the sense of the
1:06
combinatorics of this how about can we
1:08
go from Wi-Fi radio signals you know
1:10
sort of like the Wi-Fi routers in your
1:12
house they‘re bouncing off radio signals
1:14
that work sort of like sonar can you go
1:16
from that to where human beings are to
1:19
images so what they did is they had
1:21
um you know a camera looking at a space
1:24
with people in it
1:25
um that‘s sort of like coming in from
1:26
one eye the other eye is the radio
1:28
signals so sonar from the Wi-Fi router
1:31
and they just learn to predict like this
1:33
is where the human beings are then they
1:35
took away the camera so all the AI had
1:38
was the language of radio signals
1:40
bouncing around a room and this is what
1:43
they‘re able to reconstruct
1:45
Real Time 3D pose estimation right so
1:50
suddenly AI has turned every Wi-Fi
1:53
router into a camera that can work in
1:56
the dark specially tuned for tracking
1:58
living beings
2:01
already
Socialists Are Winning Using Old-Fashioned Democratic Means
(June 17, 2026)
We live in an intensely atomized society, and at no point have we been more alone than today, when the old bonds of community have largely eroded after decades of neoliberalism.
(…)
When this is connected to a project of expanding the electorate instead of only trying to persuade frequent voters, at its best, the result is a feeling of equality and common cause between the canvasser and the voter: you knocked on my door, nobody ever knocked on my door before, and you brought to my attention a vision of politics which I hadn’t before been exposed to. I and others have even on occasion recruited people to DSA in this way, after winning a voter over to our candidates.
Can Netanyahu say just what he likes?
(October 25, 2015)
A political consultant once related how he lunched with Benjamin Netanyahu, who ordered a hamburger with fries. He was not supposed to be eating such foods – doctor’s orders. As they were finishing up, Bibi’s wife, Sarah, came in, saw the evidence and began to see red. Netanyahu, all righteous indignation, looked her straight in the eye and said he had eaten no such hamburger. The storyteller said he was convinced at that moment that Netanyahu himself believed it.
If apocryphal, it is definitely in character. Netanyahu regularly embraces bad ideas or even lies so totally that he convinces himself of their rightness. Others start to believe them too. His outlandish idea, uttered in a speech, was that Hitler would have been happy with just expelling Jews if a Palestinian, the then grand mufti of Jerusalem, had not suggested annihilation instead.
MAGA Trump critics Greene, Massie, Carlson meet, tout new ‚movement‘
(today)
Carlson said in a recent interview that „I’m going to help build a third party.“ Democrats and Republicans are in „lockstep“ on war in the Middle East and other issues, Carlson said, adding the government should focus on „the welfare of its own people.“
Greene previously said she is „in talks“ to launch a new party.
„I think there’s a group of us that if we decide to align, we could launch a true America-focused party that doesn’t fall into the traps of Democrats or Republicans,“ Greene said on „Piers Morgan Uncensored,“ while also acknowledging the difficulties of creating a third party.
Tucker Responds to the Israel Lobby Defeating Thomas Massie (Transcript)
(May 21, 2026)
They’re mad at Massie. Why? One Republican out of 217 who hasn’t taken money from the Israeli lobby. Why are they so mad at him? Why was it so important for the Israeli lobby to spend tens of millions of dollars to crush this guy?
It wasn’t stopping really the status quo in any way. He did help get some of the Epstein files released, and God bless him for that. He tried his hardest. But one man against 216 other members of his party is not going to get very far by definition, so why don’t you just leave him alone? Why force the issue?
We said no more foreign wars and we meant it and supported, Donald Trump because he made that promise. But he’s betrayed us all. Our commitment is America First for all Americans, right, left, and center. The movement has begun.

Former Georgia Rep. MTG, Tucker Carlson Signal Third-Party Ambitions Following GOP Split
Former Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene and former cable news host Tucker Carlson have signaled plans to form a new political party, citing growing dissatisfaction with the Republican Party and current U.S. foreign policy.
In a social media post on Saturday, Greene shared a photograph of a meeting featuring herself, her husband Brian Glenn, Carlson, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), Massie’s wife, and Joe Kent.
Marjorie Taylor Greene teams up with Tucker Carlson as Trump rift fuels political party push: ‘Betrayed us all’
Former Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has shared a new photo with Tucker Carlson, Rep. Thomas Massie and Joe Kent, adding fresh momentum to discussions about launching a new political party.
Greene posted the picture on X and said the group had come together because they believe President Donald Trump has broken one of his biggest campaign promises. Her post comes weeks after Carlson publicly said he was helping build a third party.
The latest meeting has again raised questions about whether the group plans to turn those talks into a formal political movement.
Der Wiedergeborene – Zum 50. Todestag des Filmregisseurs Fritz Lang
Er musste zweimal sterben, um dreimal leben zu können, ehe der echte Tod ihn fand. In 46 Spielfilmen zwischen 1916 und 1960 führte Fritz Lang Regie, bei 17 davon war er am Drehbuch beteiligt, am Ende seiner Karriere drehte er noch einen Film – in einem anderen. Gestorben ist der Künstler einmal um 1931, als der Stummfilm durch den Tonfilm abgelöst wurde, und ein weiteres Mal um 1936, als er sich im Exil auf die Gesetze Hollywoods einlassen musste.
We are the Media now!
Einzelkämpfer wie Joe Rogan, Tucker Carlson oder Megyn Kelly – um nur die Bekanntesten in den USA zu nennen. Einzelkämpfer bieten dem Publikum vor allem Authentizität. Aber natürlich auch kaum Neutralität, das liegt in der Natur dieser Art des Medienmachens.
Andererseits gibt es wiederum permanent neue Personen, die sich in dieser Hinsicht ins Blickfeld drängen und diesen Nachteil durch Vielfalt ausgleichen.
Das Urteil bleibt dann dem Leser überlassen.
Und genau so sollte es ja auch sein!
After Israel killed her three sons, she found hope in a newborn. Then he was killed too
„On the day he was killed, he was restless in the afternoon and wanted to go outside. I told his sisters how much I wished I could take him out, but there are no places left for children to play.“
„He spent his whole life indoors. Even his cousins had been killed in Israeli air strikes, so he had no one to play with.“

FDP-Parteitag: Rede von Wolfgang Kubicki | 30.05.26
May 30, 2026
Rede von Wolfgang Kubicki, Kandidat für den FDP-Bundesvorsitz, beim 77. Bundesparteitag der FDP in Berlin.
On Politics, Ideology and Anti-Zionism
Moreover, we have allies in Israel and around the world, who share the same fundamental political goals we strive for – self-determination for the Palestinian people, the end of the occupation, the establishment of an independent Palestinian state alongside Israel, and the rejection of all discrimination against Palestinians in Israel. Some of these allies consider themselves Zionist, because they subscribe to a minimalist understanding of Zionism – self-determination for a Jewish collective in Israel. This right was recognized by the international community in the 1947 partition plan of Palestine and was realized by the state of Israel itself.
We do not reject this right, yet as Friedrich Engels said: “A people which oppresses another cannot emancipate itself.” Israel is still preventing the right of self-determination for Palestinians – the right for an independent Palestinian state with real borders and an end to the suffering. We need to work together with those who believe in the rights of both peoples – and some of them are Zionists.
We also know that when a political solution is achieved, it will not be after Jewish Israelis reject Zionism, but when they decide that their collective and individual interests lie on the side of peace. We are materialists – we assert that Zionism, the ideology, will only be overcome after we begin to dismantle its material basis – that of apartheid and colonization.
Therefore, our focus must remain on practical actions against this reality – and not symbolic politics of denunciation. In the German case, this means advocating for concrete actions such as a ban on settlement products import, the suspension of the EU-Israel association agreement, and a complete ban on arms supply to Israel. These actions could challenge Zionism much more than the adoption of the antizionist label.

Who are the women and girls behind Gaza war’s horrific casualty toll?
(April 20, 2026)
Thirteen-year-old Mona describes how she survived a double airstrike that killed her mother, sister and brother, destroyed her family home, and left her with life-changing injuries. “We were sitting on the sixth floor when they struck the seventh – my uncle’s apartment. My uncle’s wife was screaming, “My children! My children are gone!” As I rushed to help her, they fired the second shell. That’s when my mother and my siblings were killed and my leg was amputated”, says Mona.
“The shell hit them directly. Their bodies weren’t whole – they were in pieces”, says Mona. Mona’s mother and sister are among more than 38,000 women and girls killed in Gaza between October 2023 and December 2025, representing on average at least 47 women and girls killed every day.
In the immediate aftermath, Mona’s father was forced to tell her what had happened to the rest of her family. “At that moment, I felt nothing – I went completely numb”, says Mona.
These Are the Journalists Israel Has Killed Since the Start of the Iran War
Al-Manar is owned by Hezbollah, but it is a civilian organization protected by international law. Hezbollah is a militant group, but also a political party with elected representatives in Lebanon’s parliament.
The strikes drew condemnation from press rights groups and leaders across Lebanon’s deeply divided political spectrum.
Lebanese President Joseph Aoun called it “a blatant crime that violates all norms and treaties under which journalists are granted international protection during armed conflicts”.
As US Attacks Iran, Daniel Ellsberg Speaks to Us Once More
(March 2, 2026)
“Don’t delegate conscience,” Daniel Ellsberg wrote.
“Most people conform and accept,” he noted. “A minority protest, withdraw. A tiny minority resist, take risks.”
“The temptation is strong to obey powerful men passively and unquestioningly,” Ellsberg observed in 1971, the year he turned himself in for giving the Pentagon Papers to the press and faced the prospect of spending the rest of his life in prison.
He instantly became a pariah among colleagues who’d been his friends at the RAND Corporation, a think tank serving the US war machine. He’d been working there as a strategic analyst before and after a stint at the Defense Department.
“After I released the papers,” he vividly remembered, “some people were afraid to write to me . . . to shake hands with me . . . to receive a phone call from me.” Three years later, his takeaway was: “Accept the risks of freedom and commitment, instead of the risks of obedience and conformity.”
‘They Were All I Had’: Lebanese Father Buries Parents, 4 Daughters Killed by Israeli Bombing
It was a devastating scene repeated in other parts of Lebanon, including the south, were a distraught mother on Friday reportedly buried five sons killed by Israeli bombing, and in the Ghobeiry neighborhood of central Beirut earlier this week, when an Israeli airstrike destroyed the home of the Hamdan family, reportedly killing father Ahmad Hamdan, his three daughters, and two grandchildren. As of Tuesday, Hamdan’s wife was missing beneath the rubble of their bombed-out home.
Susanne Marie Schäfer als „unbelehrbare Staatsfeindin“ zum Tode verurteilt – Gedanken zur Meinungsfreiheit
Susanne Marie Schäfer hat die „Kriegsmoral untergraben“ und wird als „unbelehrbare Staatsfeindin“ zum Tode verurteilt – im „Namen des deutschen Volkes“. Das war im Januar 1945. Das Vergehen von der in Schwetzingen Geborenen: Sie hatte sich regimekritisch geäußert. Die Nazis sahen in ihr eine Hetzerin. Zuerst erfolgte eine Verurteilung wegen „Heimtücke“. Schäfer hielt sich aber nicht zurück. Nach ihrer Haftentlassung stellte sie in ihrem Mietshaus gegenüber ihren Mietern Kriegserfolge der Wehrmacht infrage. Das war ihr Todesurteil. Stichwort: „Wehrkraftzersetzung“. Ihre Hinrichtung erfolgte am 23. Februar 1945. Die Geschichte lehrt uns: Auf die Meinungsfreiheit kommt es vor allem dann an, wenn sie sich gegen die vorherrschende Politik richtet.

California gubernatorial candidate Tony Thurmond endorses California Billionaire Tax
(February 20, 2026)
Thurmond, a longtime champion of programs to counter food insecurity, sponsored a state law that currently funds universal school meals for every California student. Today, Thurmond praised the Billionaire Tax for helping children and families when they need it most, by funding food, supporting K-14 public education, and protecting healthcare for all Californians.
“Billionaires have a unique opportunity to save healthcare for Californians, feed hungry families, and reinvest in our public schools,” Thurmond said. “Growing up in poverty, having access to healthcare and food aid kept me and my brother alive, and public education offered us a ladder to the middle class. At a time of unprecedented wealth and income inequality, now is the time to strengthen that ladder for the next generation, not pull it up behind us.”
“Massive Cover-Up”: Rep. Jayapal Slams AG Pam Bondi over Epstein Files & Spying on Lawmakers
“Essentially, they were spying on us,” says Democratic Congressmember Pramila Jayapal. “It’s certainly not going to stop me from continuing to review the files, but it is absolutely outrageous.”
Jayapal also condemns the Justice Department for refusing to open new investigations into Epstein’s associates listed in the files. “These were rich, powerful, wealthy people, mostly men, who groomed, raped, abused, manipulated young girls,” she says.
.@RepThomasMassie and I forced last night the DOJ to disclose the identities of 6 men: Salvatore Nuara, Zurab Mikeladze, Leonic Leonov, Nicola Caputo, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, and billionaire businessman Leslie Wexner.
I share details of what more we learned to hold the Epstein class accountable.
U.S. lawmaker Ro Khanna names 6 ‚powerful men‘ originally redacted from Epstein files
Khanna took the extraordinary step of naming six „powerful men“ in the chamber who he said had their names improperly redacted, after visiting the Justice Department with Massie on Monday — the first day lawmakers were allowed to view unredacted files.
The presence of one‘s name in the files related to Epstein does not by itself indicate criminal wrongdoing, but Khanna is likely protected from legal consequence or defamation claims by the „speech or debate“ clause of the U.S. Constitution.

EXCLUSIVE: An FBI Informant Said Trump is Compromised by Israel. Headline USA Knows the Informant’s Identity
The Justice Department has released 3 million new files about deceased sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein. Among those documents is an explosive allegation from an FBI informant: that President Donald Trump is compromised by Israel.
Headline USA can reveal the FBI informant’s identity: Charles Johnson, a controversial figure with a long history in the right-wing movement. Though the report in the Epstein files is redacted, Headline USA has independently obtained a separate FBI report featuring allegations made by Johnson when he was an FBI informant. The two reports are from the same field office, contain similar details, and have the same source ID: 00099701.
