Irrational Weißenfels Citizens? Irrational Fears? – The Big Topic: JVA, Correctional FacilityWhat would the citizen, the voter, the sovereign be without the many beloved politicians who explain the world to him – the citizen, the voter, the sovereign? But it’s not only important that the citizen, the voter, the sovereign is given explanations about the world – no: it’s just as important to receive detailed explanations about the state of the citizen’s own psyche. And this psyche – one could gather from the words of Weißenfels city council member Jörg Riemer – is irrational. The issue that has been moving the citizens for the past two weeks is the possible establishment of a correctional facility just outside the city limits of Weißenfels. Quite a few citizens are against it. This was reason enough for the scholar Jörg Riemer to take a psychological and linguistic approach to the matter and publicly explain it during the city council meeting. Fear is good, anxiety is irrationalIn this city council meeting, which was bound to be a lengthy one due to the numerous agenda items, Jörg Riemer still took the time to enlighten those present about the important differences in the German language. Fear is not the same as anxiety. Some might now cry out, “That’s just nitpicking!” But when it comes to explaining to the simple citizen, the uninformed voter, the independently thinking sovereign that if they have a different opinion than the majority of the city council, they are wrong – then such differentiation becomes extremely important.Jörg Riemer explained that fear sharpens the senses and prompts the fearful person to deal consciously with a danger. Someone who fears their house might burn down, for example, takes out insurance. Anxieties, on the other hand – as the scholar explained – are irrational, paralyzing, and do not lead to good actions. Someone who is afraid of spiders and sees one can no longer act rationally. Can one deduce from this that, in the eyes of the scholar Jörg Riemer, all those who took part in the petition against the correctional facility are irrational? As of March 20, 2025, that number stood at around 1,600 signatories. Do they consider a correctional facility to be as dangerous as a spider? Should the citizens of Weißenfels be grateful that such a highly educated man sits on the city council – one who implicitly labels a portion of the population as irrational? The full remarks are available in the video above – just click play. Author: AI Translation - Maximus Polemikus | 21.03.2025 |
