I was a compulsive apologizer, as almost all Germans are when it comes to their ethnic and national identity. When you’re confined to a box, as most people are, you can’t think out- side of it. Hence, most Germans don’t realize how incorrect their attitude is, and neither did I. But eventually I moved abroad, lived in a number of non-German, even non-European societies, and learned how to walk up- right without feeling guilty about it, without having to justify myself for it constantly. However, when I started to walk upright, I was still in Germany. I was just a student, actually, and step by step I found out why Germans don’t – and can’t – walk upright. Because if they do, they get marginalized, ostra- cized, persecuted, prosecuted, abused, mistreated, beaten up, and when push came to shove, even arrested and jailed – for years. I’ve been through all this, and the following book tells about it. Unfortunately, the immediate impositors of that ostracism and persecu- tion are usually and mostly fellow Germans, amongst whom an attitude prevails toward their own identity that must be utterly puzzling to outsid- ers. They exhibit what I would call the “happy slave” syndrome. There is no greater enemy to freedom than happy slaves. They watch with zeal over their fellow slaves to make sure that no slaves ever dare try breaking free of their shackles. What has gone wrong in Germany? One can, of course, argue that Ger- many is a democracy where people have a choice. Admittedly, Germans, like voters in any other democracy, are allowed to make a cross next the any party that has been admitted to the voting process. Uhhh, there’s the rub! The party must have been admitted. That’s not just a matter of form, like an alternative political party getting a license by those in power to 8 GERMAR RUDOLF · HUNTING GERMAR RUDOLF have its name printed on the ballot in the first place. Many an obstacle can be put in a party’s way to make that impossibly difficult, up to the point where parties are simply being banned for not adhering to some purpose- made rule. Yet even that kind of governmental suppression of opposition parties is not the most troubling thing, because it is plain for everyone to see. I am more worried about the admission process that takes place in vot- ers’ heads. If a party or politician appears on the scene presenting a real, attractive alternative to the status quo, thus posing a threat to the estab- lishment, the spin doctors of the mass media, controlled by the same inter- ests that control big politics, get into gear to pre-condition our minds, in- culcating us with their twisted “truths” and outright lies in order to manipu- late them into accepting their standards of which parties and candidates are “votable” and which are not. The vast majority of people succumb to that kind of incessant and partisan propaganda to some degree, if not complete- ly. Hence, I will not give in to the illusion that “democracy” as we see it has anything to do with educated, responsible, enlightened voters making informed decisions. Some have called it plutocracy, where big money rules by controlling big media and the funding of their favorite candidates and parties. No matter what label you stick on it, it’s not what the original idea was. Considering therefore that the political establishment, in concert with the mass media, sees to it that the same political caste remains in power no matter what, it is only fair to blame exactly that establishment for the flaws of Germany’s society as they are exposed in the present book. As the so- called “people of perpetrators,” the Germans have been beaten up enough already ever since World War One. I won’t add to that. I have no illusions either about the mainstream politicians in Germany or elsewhere being deaf-and-dumb when it comes to the issues addressed here. The foremost reason for this is, of course, that the present book was not authored by a prominent, renowned personality of public life, but rather by an outsider and maverick, to say it objectively. As this book shows, mainstream politicians together with the mass media and the legal authori- ties call me far worse names. I leave it up to the reader to understand the reasons for that. Distilling this book’s message to a succinct, perhaps provocative state- ment would produce something like this: Today’s Germany is a dictatorship where some ten to twenty thousand criminal investigations are launched every year for mere expressions of opinions, and where hundreds of political prisoners are locked up for the GERMAR RUDOLF · HUNTING GERMAR RUDOLF 9 sole reason of having expressed in a peaceful way their peaceful views which those in power don’t like. Of course that’s nonsense, the average person will say, because every- one knows that Germany grants civil rights to its citizens and has a well- maintained legal system that is highly regarded. I have written the present book exactly in order to burst that delusory bubble with a heavy load of evidence. In order to understand the discrepancy between self-image and reality of today’s German society, one has to deal with Germany’s taboos which prevent Germans from perceiving that which our wishful thinking does not want to be true. In order to deal with a taboo, one has first to violate it. Hence, please permit me to violate right in this introduction Germany’s most-strictly enforced taboo, which is at once also the strongest taboo of all the other societies of the cultural western hemisphere. By doing this, we put ourselves in a position where we can then analyze the effects of that taboo. What is a taboo? Read the motto again that I’ve put at the very top of the first page of this introduction. A truly effective taboo prohibits that one dare call it a taboo in the first place, because taboos are something archaic, something that an enlightened, tolerant society shouldn’t have. Hence, to call a taboo just that amounts to an indictment of that very regime that enforces it, accusing it of being primitive, unenlightened, oppressive. In the end, calling a taboo by its name amounts already to violating it, an act which the regime imposing this taboo will punish. So, what exactly is this taboo of western societies in general and Ger- many in particular? As an enlightened citizen, about which topic don’t you dare talk publicly in a manner not conforming with the expectations of your society? There may be some topics that come to your mind. But I’m not talking about just any topic. Well, it is actually quite easy to find the answer to this question, and
