Read between the lines, if you are an intelligent reader
They always say there is no background political process. But why do they always insinuate (journalists) that there is something like that? So you must read between the lines. This article is a selection of quotes I have collected over time. They are from both English and Czech media. These are just pieces, but they…

Dictators rule by fear, democracies by hidden elites
Totalitarian regimes thrive on clarity. The state names the enemy openly, propaganda repeats it endlessly, and every citizen knows who to fear. Stalin labeled kulaks and wreckers. Hitler made Jews and Communists the ultimate threat. Mao identified counter-revolutionaries and rightists. These regimes could not survive without pointing to a visible enemy. The methods were brutal…

How to get rid of organized crime
Organized crime is not born as a giant. It begins with independent gangs, small groups of criminals who control a street corner, a bar, or a neighborhood. Over time, these gangs expand, form alliances, and build networks. Eventually, they grow into a parallel power structure that rivals the state. It kills individuals, but it also…

Capitalist ethics as absurd as contract killing ethics
Capitalism today is often described as free competition, innovation, and opportunity. However, when we look closely, it becomes clear that at the very top it is none of these things. Instead, it is a contest among giants. Super-rich families, their bankers, and multinational corporations dominate the field. They do not simply follow rules like ordinary…

Why we should get rid of royals
The Czech Republic is officially a republic, but many treat the president as if he were a king. People project onto him a ceremonial aura, as though the office itself carried divine or hereditary weight. Citizens expect him to embody the national spirit, deliver moral guidance, and act as a symbol rather than simply a…

Did Israelis build a country themselves? Wrong
The popular story of Israel is simple. Brave settlers, driven by faith and determination, transformed desert and swamps into a modern state. According to this narrative, Israelis built everything with their own hands and sacrifices. It is a story repeated in textbooks, speeches, and media. But this story is misleading. Israel did not rise from…

Pro-Israel and Anti-Israel Jewish clientelism
Jewish clientelism is one of the most powerful political and financial systems in the modern world. It is not myth or rumor. It is visible in lobbying, banking, and international diplomacy. Its strength comes not from a single cabal but from competing factions that fight for dominance while relying on the same patronage networks. This…

Death in their country or on the boat?
For millions of people, the choice is brutal and final. Stay in their homeland and die slowly, or risk dying quickly at sea. There is no safety net. There is no third way. They live in countries where food is scarce, wages are nonexistent, health care is a fantasy, and the future is a blank…

They spy on everyone. What scale is moral?
In 2013, Edward Snowden shattered the illusion that mass surveillance was a paranoid fantasy. Instead of a few targeted programs, he revealed an entire global machine. It watched leaders, allies, rivals, journalists, and ordinary people alike. Therefore, the real debate is not whether spying exists—it clearly does. Rather, the question is: what scale of spying…

Global health care system? 90 million people could live in a decade
A truly global health system could save more lives than any single humanitarian effort in history. It would not just prevent millions of deaths every year—it would raise the quality of life for billions. Contrary to what many assume, it would not be prohibitively expensive, even for developed countries. And more importantly, it would prove…
