MAINSTREAMHÖRIGKEIT Demokratie, Souveränität & Freiheit sind „schwere“ Begriffe. Kernthese: Die im Nachgang definierte Mainstreamhörigkeit und die Feststellung selbiger in großen Teilen der in Deutschland lebenden Menschen verhindert echte Demokratie (vgl. Kap. 3). Alle journalistischen Anstrengungen durch professionelle oder Bürger-Journalisten außerhalb der etablierten Medien, die durch Aufklärung und Aufdeckung von investigativen Inhalten demokratische Ziele verfolgen, werden solange in der Menge der Mainstreamhörigen keine, bzw. nur sehr überschaubare Früchte tragen, bis die Auflösung der Mainstreamhörigkeit der breiten Masse der Gesellschaft erfolgt ist. Die Mainstreamhörigkeit ist nämlich jeder inhaltlichen Diskussion vor-, bzw. übergelagert und stört enorm wirksam den echten Diskurs, u.a. auch dadurch, dass der Öffentliche Debattenraum als das Herzstück der Demokratie, massiv eingeschränkt, manipuliert und abgeschafft wurde und immer noch wird (siehe Kapitel 5.3). Der Erkennung der Mainstreamhörigkeit durch ihre Offenlegung und ihre Überwindung muss daher die oberste Priorität aufklärerischen Wirkens gelten, wozu dieses kompakte Werk seinen positiven Beitrag leisten soll. Mainstreamhörigkeit Mainstreamhörigkeit bezeichnet in diesem Werk die, bei der Mehrheit der Mitmenschen in der Realität feststellbare „Hörigkeit“ im Sinne von ungeprüfter Übernahme von Aussagen, welche in den Mainstream-Medien (und ihrer Autoritäten und Meinungsführer) getätigt, bzw. von diesen gesendet werden. Da mainstreamhörige Leser, bzw. Zuschauer in Ihrer Mehrheit davon ausgehen, dass „seriöse Mainstream Medien“ stets ausschließlich „die eine“ Wahrheit über Ereignisse berichten, bleibt eine kritische Prüfung der Aussagen aus und große Teile der Bevölkerung sind somit de facto „hörig“ und folglich manipulierbar. Welche historischen Entwicklungen zu dieser beobachteten Mainstreamhörigkeit geführt haben soll nicht so sehr im Fokus stehen, sondern das Verständnis der Mainstreamhörigkeit und Ihre Überwindung. Mainstreamhörigkeit kann auch als Gegensatz zum Leitspruch der Aufklärung von Immanuel Kant „Sapere aude - Habe Mut, dich deines eigenen Verstandes zu bedienen!“ verstanden werden. Obige und weitere Definitionen, Beschreibungen und Thesen werden nicht, nach streng wissenschaftlichen Kriterien belegt, sondern sind vielmehr das Ergebnis einer aufmerksamen subjektiven Beobachtung der Realität, die den Leser zum eigenständigen Denken und Prüfen anregen soll. Was mit Gleichschaltung gemeint ist Die Erfahrung des Autors und seines Umfeldes ist es, dass über die Jahre hinweg die bedeutendsten deutschsprachigen Mainstream Medien bei immer mehr gesellschaftlich und politisch relevanten Themen gleiche oder ähnliche Positionen oder Haltungen im Meinungsspektrum einnehmen. Einzelne Ausnahmen der Berichterstattung existieren zwar, ändern jedoch nichts an dieser Feststellung an sich. 5 An dieser Stelle sei u.a. auf die Besitzverhältnisse-Analyse von „Die Anstalt“2 hingewiesen, welche eine von vielen Weichen auf diesem Wege analysiert, aber nur unter dem Hinweis, dass die Besitzverhältnisse an sich NICHT die Betrachtung der inhaltlichen Aussagen ersetzt. Die inhaltliche Gleichschaltung die der „Besitzgleichschaltung“ folgen KANN ist es, die zur Pauschalisierung des Autors der etablierten Presselandschaft in „Mainstream Medien“ führt. Was mit Mainstream Medien gemeint ist Der Begriff Mainstream Medien wird in diesem Buch pauschalisierend definiert als die Gruppe der Medien, deren überwiegende Mehrzahl an Berichten eines oder mehrere der folgenden Merkmale aufweist: - Argumentation im Sinne von „seriösen Medien-Quellen“ wichtiger als die einzelne Argumentation, bzw. der Inhalt des Gesagten (Schaffung einer Bannwarte gegenüber alternativen Medien – siehe Kapitel 5) - Haltung und moralische

  • Russia's Reaction to the Magnitsky Act and Relations with the West
    RUSSIAN ANALYTICAL DIGEST No. 120, 23 November 2012 2 Analysis Russia’s Reaction to the Magnitsky Act and Relations With the West Ben Aris, Moscow Abstract The reaction of the US and EU to the death of Sergei Magnitsky by issuing travel bans to 60 Russian offi- cials, and the Magnitsky Act in the US, has become an issue of contention in Russian–Western relations. The Kremlin views the Magnitsky Act as a politically-motivated attempt to interfere in Russian domestic affairs. At the same time, in spite of some mild reforms during the Medvedev Presidency, the Magnitsky case has not had a big impact on either Russian domestic governance or political debate. he death of Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitsky on Sep- documentaries on YouTube on the “Russian Untouch- Ttember 16, 2009 in a Moscow pre-trial detention ables” and “Hermitage TV” channels). centre was a tragedy and his human rights were almost In November 2008 Magnitsky was arrested on certainly violated.

  • Minority Report: Ukraine As Bugbear
    MINORITY REPORT: UKRAINE AS BUGBEAR [NB: Note the byline; I began writing this as one of my Minority Report pieces; it’s been in my Work In Progress folder for nearly two years, and an unfinished draft here at emptywheel for 18 months. I left off work on it well before the final Special Counsel’s Report was published. This post’s content has become more relevant even if it’s not entirely complete, needing more meat in some areas, and now requiring the last two-plus years of fossil fuel-related developments and events related to the U.S.- Ukraine-Russia triangle after the 2016 U.S. general election. /~Rayne] This post looks at the possibility that the hacking of U.S. election system and events affecting the election’s outcome are part of a much larger picture — one in which NATO figures large, and the future of energy figures even larger. One could attribute Russian attempts at hacking and influencing the 2016 general election to retaliation for the CIA’s involvement in Ukraine, or to a personal vendetta against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with regard to Ukraine ahead of the Maidan revolt, or to rousing anti-Putin sentiment in Russia: … Five years ago, he blamed Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for the anti- Kremlin protests in Moscow’s Bolotnaya Square. “She set the tone for some of our actors in the country and gave the signal,” Putin said. “They heard this and, with the support of the U.S. State Department, began active work.” (No evidence was provided for the accusation.) … But after looking at the mission and history of NATO, the integral role of natural gas to Europe’s industry and continuity, Ukraine’s role as a conduit for Russian gas to European states, one might come to a very different conclusion.

  • Russia: Background and U.S
    Russia: Background and U.S. Policy Updated August 21, 2017 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R44775 Russia: Background and U.S. Policy Summary Over the last five years, Congress and the executive branch have closely monitored and responded to new developments in Russian policy. These developments include the following: increasingly authoritarian governance since Vladimir Putin’s return to the presidential post in 2012; Russia’s 2014 annexation of Ukraine’s Crimea region and support of separatists in eastern Ukraine; violations of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty; Moscow’s intervention in Syria in support of Bashar al Asad’s government; increased military activity in Europe; and cyber-related influence operations that, according to the U.S. intelligence community, have targeted the 2016 U.S. presidential election and countries in Europe. In response, the United States has imposed economic and diplomatic sanctions related to Russia’s actions in Ukraine and Syria, malicious cyber activity, and human rights violations. The United States also has led NATO in developing a new military posture in Central and Eastern Europe designed to reassure allies and deter aggression. U.S. policymakers over the years have identified areas in which U.S. and Russian interests are or could be compatible. The United States and Russia have cooperated successfully on issues such as nuclear arms control and nonproliferation, support for military operations in Afghanistan, the Iranian and North Korean nuclear programs, the International Space Station, and the removal of chemical weapons from Syria. In addition, the United States and Russia have identified other areas of cooperation, such as countering terrorism, illicit narcotics, and piracy.

  • EU Introduces Magnitsky-Style Human Rights Sanctions Regime
    Debevoise Update D&P EU Introduces Magnitsky-Style Human Rights Sanctions Regime 21 December 2020 On 7 December 2020, the EU implemented a new sanctions regime that allows the European Council to impose asset freezes and travel bans on persons—whether state or non-state actors—it determines to have committed serious human rights violations. Although no persons have yet been listed under the regime, it is an important step forward for the EU’s agenda to promote respect of human rights globally. It also brings the bloc’s sanctions powers in line with those of other countries that have already implemented similar “Magnitsky”-style sanctions—most notably the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. Prior to the introduction of this regime, the majority of EU sanctions regimes were country-specific, and enacting a new sanctions regime requires unanimous consent of all EU Member States to sanction the country. The new human rights sanctions regime may allow the EU to employ its sanctions powers to impose asset freezes on persons in jurisdictions where the EU has no standing sanctions regime, or if there is political sensitivity about targeting the jurisdiction, as sanctions designations only require the unanimous consent of the European Council rather than of each Member State. HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS: THE EU’S PREVIOUS APPROACH Upholding “the universality and indivisibility of human rights and fundamental freedoms [and] respect for human dignity”1 is one of the core principles of the EU’s foreign policy. Prior to the introduction of the Magnitsky-style sanctions regime, the EU sought to incentivise other countries to uphold human rights in three main ways.

  • Chapter [3]: [The Global Magnitsky Landscape]
    3 The global Magnitsky landscape Introduction 3.1 Targeted sanctions regimes have been enacted in a number of jurisdictions around the world. 3.2 This Chapter will first examine the United States targeted sanctions legislation, including the background of Sergei Magnitsky. 3.3 It will then review various Magnitsky-style Acts in other countries, as well as providing a brief overview of methods used by other states or international bodies to sanction human rights abusers. 3.4 This Chapter looks at aspects of these United States, Canadian and United Kingdom Acts, comparing and contrasting the various pieces of legislation. 3.5 These pieces of legislation, from countries with legal systems similar to the Australian legal system, provide examples of how Australia could approach the introduction of targeted sanctions, and how that might contribute to global efforts to combat human rights abuse and corruption. What are ‘Magnitsky’ sanctions or targeted sanctions? 3.6 The use of sanctions for diplomatic and other purposes is a well- established aspect of statecraft. It was argued that the traditional focus of sanctions has been on sanctioning states, and until recently there has been 36 CRIMINALITY, CORRUPTION AND IMPUNITY: SHOULD AUSTRALIA JOIN THE GLOBAL MAGNITSKY MOVEMENT? little focus on sanctioning individuals.1 It was suggested to the inquiry that this been the case with Australia’s current sanctions regime.2 3.7 Mr Geoffrey Robertson OAM QC observed that although human rights abuses can be listed as designating criteria for sanctioning,
