Against the Grain
There is a lack of understanding on the part of some, why so many people in Stuttgart and in Wendland to the street or track . go In a recent debate between opponents and supporters Stuttgart 21 was the comparison with the situation before the election, Hitler's 1933rd At that time instrumentalized the Nazis, the people on the street to come to power, his plan today, the Greens and the Left, the like. They would try to undermine a loud minority in the streets of the silent majority of the water. I was not then fortunately here, but must be not have been there at the Nazi comparisons inherent limp seen. Instead I get riled to justify it, I'd like to explore, which has witnessed the spirit of this child.
Civil disobedience
Many people brush against the grain in the system which they do not follow the rules. They block roads and tracks, make noise, do not follow the instructions the police and make decisions democratically legitimized in question. They call it civil disobedience, and invoke their right to freedom of expression and even risking being beaten up. For someone of his authority, the state gives full faith, this action is incomprehensible - unless another power has its finger in the game. Some who should get people to yes on the street, so as to democratically legitimized government to stink.
compliant incomprehension
This paradigm automatically assumes that a sovereign people must be deaf. The option that question without being asked, the system itself form a view and decide voluntarily to the resistance does not provide it. Who does not know nonconformity from personal experience, they can not understand, and must therefore come to the conclusion that the opponents system are exploited. This makes many afraid. They fear a radical minority that wants to travel outside of the parliamentary power to the elected representatives of the hand. Therefore, the Nazi comparison.
self-criticism
speaks the other hand, however, the heterogeneity of the opponent. There are certainly some who blindly follow their spokesmen. But them, compared to countless running while in the same march with the others, but fundamentally different Beliefs have. The willingness to go for a cause on the street is usually in a critical attitude towards the system and the powers of reason. This criticism also applies its own ranks. This self-criticism while the opposition is divided, but the critical thinking immanent, and thus a necessary evil. Would a spokesman for the mobs with his actions in the toilet he would face the full extent of the criticism.
injustice system
An actor in the Stuttgart 21 side has at least tolerated, or even arrange to have a student demonstration was brutally crushed. Nevertheless, many of his supporters have put behind him and justified his actions. They trust him blindly, try to find fault with the victims. To put it very bluntly: If opponents spokesman Stocker Gangolf the black block in a boy Unions meeting would be beat up and sent him properly hunted the other opponents for the city. And tell no one that, in contrast, the police action on 30.9. was legal. A legal system that police violence is justified to this extent, has no justification for me. I am not prepared to accept the government's actions at face value. But this way of thinking does not seem to be standard equipment. Sorry.
provocation or limitations
I hope it is with all these Instrumentalisierungsvorwürfen and Nazi comparisons brainless just dahergeplapperte provocation. This also applies to silly prattle on the side of opponents. I respect every opinion, the result of critical thinking, even if I do not share them. Anyone who denies my capacity for critical opinion I can slide down the hump. Who is not in a position to question the existing system itself becomes the follower. Since one can only hope that someone decent he runs after ...
