Reception

Our society is increasingly dominated by powerful liars who determine the futures all of us have to live in. Their lies pose an existential threat to all of us. We aim for an understanding of the deep reasons for this lying and the societal processes that have resulted in a high level of acceptance of liars in leading positions. We want to find pathways back to a society where lying is considered as unethical and unacceptable, where liars are not put into leading positions with responsibility for our common futures.

“Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth”, is a law of propaganda often attributed to the Nazi Paul Joseph Goebbels. We say:

“Repeat a truth often enough and eventually it will become widely accepted.”

If you are appalled by the ubiquitous lying of those who are in leading positions in our society and if you understand the danger of this and the threat it poses to our future, then we want you to join us here.

[Aug 03, 2026] Hothouse Earth: arriving sooner than you think…: Julian Cribb writes in his latest blog: “Latest measurements, carefully analysed to exclude anomalies such as El Nino, reveal a planet cooking up at a steady 0.48 degrees per decade since 2015, in what is thought to be the most rapid heating event in all its geological history.” We are experiencing the most rapid heating event in Earth's billions of years long history! We have caused this event with a few hundred years of sole focus on unlimited growth using all the ancient solar energy accumulated by Earth's biosphere over more than 250 million years - just because we could! That is something to reflect on!

[Jun 04, 2026] ‘An equal and habitable world is possible’: This is what the Global Justice Report published today makes very clear. Read the article by Jonathan Watts in the Guardian as an introduction. While this equal and habitable world is still possible, it is very unlikely that we will transition to this world as long as greedy and unethical billionaires supported by governments they own compete to be the first trillionaire. The report underlines that the fight for an equal and habitable world has to be a fight against a system that rewards extraction and depletion of all resources and requires infinitely growing consumption devouring the Earth's life-support system; a system designed to increase inequality and sustain the exploitation of almost all to serve the greed of a few!
