I used to wonder what it was like to live in Europe during the 1930s, with totalitarianism rising everywhere and an eerie unease that a conflict like that which we had not seen in history was on the horizon...

I don't wonder anymore. I just turn on DW or the BBC.

Yes, DW is really scandalously biased. Or you could turn to The Guardian for a healthy dose of disinformation. I marvel at what has become of the British media. Or British foreign policy, for that matter, which seems to be hellbent on outdoing even our own feminist diplomat-in-chief in terms of superpower delusions and Russophobia. When will they get the memo that the world order has changed?

Unter den Linden in Berlin should be renamed to Christoph Heusgen Boulevard. He is the perfect avatar of the new Germany: a vainglorious cry-bully who is utterly impotent.

Also I never cease to point out that since 1929 Antifa is just the rebranded Roter Frontkämpferbund, Ernst Thälmann‘s outfit.

There are not enough boulevards in Berlin to rename after all the buffoons epitomizing the official New Germany's foolishness and shamelessness.
