Tomáš Bat'a: "When I was 20 years old, I thought my father was an idiot. When I was 30, I sometimes thought he was quite right. When I was 40, I thought he was a pretty wise guy. And when I was 50, I thought, if only he were here to give me advice!"

The national and national importance of the deceased was acknowledged by the Chairman of the Union of Industrialists, the General Director of Živnobanka, Dr. Preis, quoting from his speech entitled Tomáš Bat'a contributed to the nation and the state:
"The work and life of Tomáš Bata are a living and glorious negation of the forces of levelling, a new confirmation of the old truth of what a man in his place means, a man strong and humane, a man firm and purposeful, and a man who gladly and willingly takes full responsibility for his actions. Against himself and against those who linked their existence to his behaviour. There is no collective responsibility - collective responsibility is the negation of responsibility. And so long as there is human progress, so long will the strong, initiating, morally-infused man be the bearer of it. This was Bata's conviction. And it was this deep consciousness, this will to responsibility and his manly determination, that aroused in him resistance to all subsidy and economic interference and at the same time called him to the great competitive forum of the world, where he contributed so much to the good name of the nation and the state."

They all go to the same islands on holiday to talk about it. They all take the same pictures. Like puppets. Soulless creatures who won't even know they've left the world. People who serve only the system and objectivity will inevitably become Eichmanns.
Her ideas have gained momentum in a pandemic. Many of us were looking for a way to cope with the uncertainty. According to philosopher and phenomenologist Anna Hogen, we must learn to live with this form of uncertainty. She is currently most worried about global conflict and says that the catastrophe of "Western" man lies in his inability to live in the present and touch pain. Yet she is an optimist. As she says, at the bottom of the worst pain is pure joy.
The biggest trouble is that man lives only for being. These are things in space and time, such as cars, handbags, titles, fame, importance and, most importantly, power. Man lacks what we in phenomenology call being. Man today is only capable of wanting and thinking being. That is, to want something in space and time. There is still being, which we can think of as background. From this background, all beings become beings because being shows those beings.
Why is it that "at home" no prophet is right? Because people are so incredibly close to the truth he shows them that they would rather stone a prophet than give him the truth. Man, when he is gripped or enclosed in a circle, in order to understand the totality of that circle, must step out of it and look at it from a distance. And I dare say many people don't know this.

Mr. Prime Minister, what would you say about the STAN scandals?
***
Prime Minister Petr Fiala is not a strong personality, he is just playing one - without emotion, supporting ideas with undignified hand gestures. He is not a charismatic leader who would appeal to the majority. It is symptomatic that in his speech "to the nation" he did not mention the STAN affair at all, nor the Czech EU presidency. Czech "Potemkin democracy" cannot surprise anyone. The West does not expect it.
Political scientist Daniel Kroupa is right: "The Czech Republic should get rid of provincialism". Of course, this is impossible, there are no people. Political analyst Daniel Kroupa warned against Czech provincialism, petty bourgeoisie and plebeianism - as K. H. Borovsky, F. Palacký, TGM or A. Švehla. We are paying for the generational loss of nobility, elites and traditions. It is symbolic that today in Brussels, the Czech Presidency was opened with a relay run by Emil Zátopek, a great athlete but an unpleasant character who collaborated with the communists. The famous Věra Čáslavská, who proved her solid character and suffered under the Communists, was not "suitable" enough. Hope can for Czech Republic only be strengthened by unquestionable personalities who have proved their qualities with their lives. Therefore, it is not surprising that on the day of the assumption of the Presidency (1 July 2022), the public broadcaster, the German ARD, did not mention the Czech Republic at all in its main evening newscast, Tagesschau (even those who do not speak German will appreciate the quality, 15-minute, sophisticated coverage, incomparable to 60 in. ČT events, which only reflect the above-mentioned negative characteristics of the Czech ethnicity).
I don't like Jana Bobošíková, but what she says about the new Minister of Education Vladimír Balaz should make the whole country smile - another "moscovitch" and a mockery of democratic voters.
I recommend a short interview with Petr Krogman, chairman of the Czech-Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce (CRoPlus 24.6.2022) and owner of Agro Mia, on how cowardly, stupidly even suicidal, we are behaving towards Russia instead of taking full advantage of our military and economic strength and clear superiority. The EU pays Russia 10 times more than it pays Ukraine! We pay Russia half a billion a day for oil and gas, Ukraine 15 times less! Ukraine is fighting and dying for us - we are supporting more of it and our enemy! Only countries that have completely lost their instinct for self-preservation can behave like this.

He is not a man, but the embodiment of the most primitive evil and violence, a representative of modern Nazism - Putinism, which in many ways surpasses Nazism. It is pure state terrorism - no military targets, the murder of children, defenceless civilians, the theft of grain, you cannot go any lower.
Europe is more war-weary than Ukraine. It shows us how uncontrolled prosperity leads to a decline in morals. When will the West realise that it is dealing with a mentally ill man who literally does not give a damn about its rules! He understands and acknowledges only brute, primitive force. Russian self-centredness is once again trying to show who is the master of the world - this is how the Russian rich behave in the West. Let us hope that the opposition will still find strength in Russia and that Alexei Navalny will be able to complete his mission.
Russian journalist Dmitry Muratov auctioned his Nobel Prize for $103.5 million. He is donating the money from the sale of the medal to help child refugees from Ukraine who fled the Russian invasion. The auction took place in New York.

"A six-year-old girl was killed by the Russians as she slept in her bed in Mykolayiv, Ukraine. Whoever fired the missile must have read Dostoyevsky and watched Mikhailov's films. While some convince us that culture is not to blame for the murders, we bury our children. Enjoy Russian "culture".
Yevhen Perebyinis, Ambassador of Ukraine to the Czech Republic

“I just pointed out that if this happens with the first series of vaccinations, maybe if they take these guys and have data on people that were semen donors and they had boosted them, when they followed them after the booster, you’d see another round of depression, and maybe it would be depressed—who knows—would it be depressed more? Would it be depressed, less? Would the effect last longer? We just don’t have any data on that,” Bostom said. “So that was the only other thing I put into my tweet—that we just don’t know what the effect of boosters is going to be. I don’t know why any of that was such a big deal.”
“Indiscriminate use instead of targeted, risk-stratified EUA rollout has led to a myriad of concerns. Never broadly apply a brand new experimental biologic agent on a large population without assessment of risk stratification,” McCullough wrote. “Over-used and now uninvited concerns in young men.” Read more>

A new study published by the New England Journal of Medicine on June 9 found that protection from COVID-19 via natural immunity was superior to that of two doses of Pfizer’s COVID vaccine after the same amount of time elapsed among uninfected people.
“Natural immunity wins again,” Martin Adel Makary, M.D., M.P.H., a public policy researcher at Johns Hopkins University, wrote on Twitter, referring to the new study. Natural immunity “protection was higher than that conferred after the same time had elapsed since receipt of a second dose of vaccine among previously uninfected persons,” concludes the study.
