occasion a theme night in UniKino ("The 68s in Göttingen" and "The Baader Meinhof Complex")
sees as one of the old "revolutionaries" from the typical black witnesses wall, a first verschmunzeltes murmur goes through the hall. Yes, it looks like a former student Germanistik. Pot Smoking man, long hair and torchlight marches. peacefully in Göttingen (almost) everything. Very long teach-and sit-ins, discussion and exchange of ideas, a vibrant political student body, above all, one that thinks and not just crammed.
Today?
The brawling Baader, Ensslin the slightly insane looking, brutal violence, the reasons remain enigmatic.
fight violence with violence? May be shot?
On the way back home after a discussion breaks out. Violence is excluded. Fight violence with violence? The current war in Gaza seems proof enough that violence is a less efficient method of reaching a solution. Murder for the common good? For me, incomprehensible. More a sign of weakness. Not feel able to change something, cause with his own thoughts to something.
And why are we not on the street? Why do the demonstrating students individually of their own fellow students offended if a lecture is disrupted? Why is only learned not discussed, not intended for? We have no more revolutionary energy?
shows or the repetition of history that all involvement is meaningless?
The U.S. exhaust their forces in senseless wars, the state is trying to subtly citizens to object to a questionable control policy making (for the benefit of such security as may be never), education is transformed into a priceless collection of notes rather than their own thoughts.
improve a system that is not thought out? That the promises it made to be accepted, can not keep close? That a test for the psyche?
Survival of the fittest in the 21st century.
