Hey Folks,
first of all, I have to admit that my english is not perfect, but I try my best.
Here is what I want to tell you:
My name is Miró Wolsfeld, I am a 25 years old educator, youtuber and blogger from Cologne, Germany. Since a couple of years I engage in peace activism. From 2014 to mid 2015 I have organized one of the so called "monday protests" or "Vigils for Peace", wich have the goal to create a consciousness for the problems we face globally. In this time I was more and more interessted in anarchy, libertarianism or voluntaryism. Many people of the 'Vigils for Peace' movement didn't like the idea of a world without governments. They believed in 'direct democracy' and therefore didn't get to the root of the global evil, wich is rulership. So this lead to many endless discussions and ended up with me leaving this movement.
This was spring 2015. From that moment on I decided to create a YouTube channel and produce open minded videos in wich I talk about global issues from a libertarian point of view. The main goal of my work is to raise awareness for people to question everything and to educate them, not blindly to follow any popular person. In general, I want to spread libertarianism. The alternative media contains alot of wrong information. There are journalists, who pretend to be independent, when in fact, they are not. One can clearly see this, when they ignore obvious facts. Many of those fake alternatives don't critisize Islam, but always critisize the US and glorify Russia or Palestine.
I contacted journalists and other video producers and produced videos wich they shared. With their help I reached more people with my content. Today, a year later, I reached 2k subscribers wich is not that much in comparison to other youtubers, but for me this means a lot. I also work with many people who I followed the least years. Now I write texts and create Memes. I have my own community, many different projects, made interviews and in general have made so many great experiences in this time. I am very gladful for all this.
Unfortunately, things have changed.
From the moment I engaged in peace activism I was a more positive person. I hoped to wake people up, to change things. Today, I think that my activism also made people around me think more about what is going on globally. I also think that this activism has also helped to get more people on the streets and to protest against injustice. Maybe the "Vigils for Peace" are the root for movements like "PEGIDA". In general this definitly created more awareness for global issues. So I can clearly say, this movement, my activism had an impact. Also my videos and texts reach more people and influence them.
Today, I sadly have to say that I don't believe Germany and Europe in general have a reliable future. The refugee crisis is destroying the whole infrastructure. There are several islamic terrorist attacks each month, many sexual attacks on children, women, elderlies, murders among immigrants and the ressources to cope with this are getting lower, financially and personally. Here in Germany the justice system doesn't work anymore. Immigrants barely face convictions, natives are being disadvantaged. The islamization is clearly taking place. There is no working concept how to deal with criminal immigrants. Everyone who questions this is called a "right-winger". The lefties don't want to face obvious facts and only concentrate on right-wing extremism. In addition to this there is a government organization called "Amadeu Antonio Stiftung" wich pretends to fight right-wing extremism on the internet. In fact, they fight everyone who criticizes the asylum politics. They are responsible for many people being banned on Facebook. Also many german musicians are left-wingers and support the fight against critics. On the opposition there is the popular asylum and Islam critical party "AFD" (Alternative For Germany), the PEGIDA movement, some conservative people and parties and the libertarians. So if one wants to rescue this country, one would have to fight against a mass of people: Criminal Immigrants, immigrated people who live here since many years but support radical islam and Sharia law, lefties, left-wing politicians and mainstream media.
On a speaker's corner in Cologne I talked about the problems of a borderless immigration. There were mostly students. I gave a speech for 10 minutes (wich is the general limit there) and had a discussion with some people from the audience for another 30 minutes. It was shocking to see that people educated people weren't able to understand obvious facts. This was the moment I realized Germany cannot be helped anymore. If they don't understand the dangers of this politics, how can uneducated people, people who just focus on their next Pokémon to catch, how can they get the point?
As someone who openly talks in germany about these issues, you risk your job, your reputation and endanger yourself. This for example happened to a german author called "Akif Pirincci". He criticized german immigration politics in his books and therefore was persuaded by leftist extremists and slandered by mainstream media. Stores won't sell his books anymore, not even online.
This is why I am planning to leave this country. I don't always want to have all the dangers on immigration in my mind. I don't want to fight against people who want this mess. I just want to live a simple lifestyle. Here in Germany and Europe in general this isn't possible anymore.
What is your perspective on this? I would like to hear your opinion in the comments below.
