" Chaos and Violence: How New Year's Eve in Cologne Has Changed Germany."

"What should be done? An attempt at complete honesty would be a good start. Germans are not children who need to be protected from the truth for well-intended reasons. And part of the truth is the fact that politicians like to talk about integration but have not yet given any indication that they understand the magnitude of the challenge facing them. Another part of the truth is this: German society is becoming increasingly divided."

"All established media have been confronted with the same phenomenon. In Germany, there is a stable minority that is convinced that the country's broadcasters, newspapers and magazines are controlled by dark powers and have agreed to suppress bad news about foreigners so as not to endanger the political project of welcoming refugees.

"More than 2,000 users have thus far commented on Theveßens post, with most of the missives of a horrifying nature -- a collection of conspiracy theories characteristic of the far-right."

Yeah, "conspiracy theories characteristic of the far-right" are "missives of a horrifying nature", but thats certainly not an indication "that the country's broadcasters, newspapers and magazines are controlled by dark powers". The entire article goes out of it's way to stress that we don't know who committed the attacks or whether the attacks even really happened at all, but people saying that the media suppresses bad news about foreigners are horrifying.

In a related bit of news, when NASA first got images back from their early Mars probes, the scientists were shocked to see an extraordinarily terrestrial looking landscape under a clear blue sky. Upon investigation, they discovered that the images had been adjusted by video technicians who had simply altered the color balance on their image processing software until they got something that looked "normal"...meaning a terrestrial landscape with a blue sky.

Sometimes there's no conspiracy, just a bunch of shared preconceptions which haven't been challenged.

Just wait until the summer when tourist, Frau, and madchen alike will be scantilly clothed and the refu-jihadis are left to their own guilt free proclivities.

You want to bring back the Nazis? Well thats how you do it. But perhaps that was the plan all along.
