Wenn autoritäre oder destruktive Kräfte das System nutzen, um es zu schwächen, reicht es nicht, „höflich“ oder „neutral“ zu bleiben – manchmal erfordert Verteidigung der Demokratie entschlossene Gegenwehr und klare Wertehaltung.

Dazu müssen wir allerdings auch das "System", das da genutzt wird, genauer anschauen. Da stellt sich heraus, dass das System in seiner Praxis selbst autorität und destruktiv ist. Meine ganze Lebenszeit habe ich nichts anderes gesehen. Der Unterschied heute ist, dass die autoritären und destruktiven Kräfte jegliche Maske fallen lassen und (wieder) auf blanke Gewalt und Terror setzen.
