Ergebnis für "Humor" in Politik & Regierungen

Wer politikverdrossen werden will, sollte dieses Buch lesen. Wer nicht, auch. HG. Butzko liefert eine wütende Abrechnung mit unserer Gesellschaft, wobei er die Wut nicht den Stammtischen überlässt, sondern Witz statt Populismus bietet und Differenzierung statt Schwarz-Weiß-Denken. Endlich die Antwort auf Sarrazin, Matussek, Ulfkotte, Pirinci und Co. HG. Butzko bietet mit diesem Buch einen wahren Hirnschrittmacher gegen Verarschung, Verführung und Verblödung.

"Ein Hirn zu haben und es auch zu benutzen, ist keine Schande und schadet nicht einmal dem Klima." Wann genau hat sich der Verstand eigentlich in den Urlaub verabschiedet? Und wieso ist unser schönes Gehirn so eine verdammt faule Sau geworden? Wenn man das am rechten Rand immer lauter werdende politische Geschehen verfolgt, sich in sozialen Netzwerken bewegt oder die belanglos bumsbanalen Reality-Formate im TV anschaut, könnte einen die blanke Verzweiflung packen. Es scheint, als hätte die kollektive Blödigkeit endgültig gewonnen und der spießigen Vernunft lachend die Beine weggetreten.

Das Europaparlament – eine hervorragende Idee. Nur in der Realität leider ein Witz, und noch dazu ein sehr schlechter.

Von gierigen Parlamentariern, die keines ihrer unsinnigen Privilegien ungenutzt lassen und sich ständig in die eigene Tasche wirtschaften.

Lea Ypi grew up in one of the most isolated countries on earth, a place where communist ideals had officially replaced religion. Albania, the last Stalinist outpost in Europe, was almost impossible to visit, almost impossible to leave. It was a place of queuing and scarcity, of political executions and secret police. To Lea, it was home. People were equal, neighbours helped each other and children were expected to build a better world. There was community and hope. Then, in December 1990, a year after the fall of the Berlin Wall, everything changed.

In the olden days, people used to learn about things from encyclopedias. And that was really good, because you could read it, and learn it, then you could stop worrying about thinking. But now, with the Internet and more people and science and research, there's just too much knowledge - more every year - and it's overwhelming. So, after years of asking the big questions - like 'what did people do before evolution?' and 'what is clocks?' - intrepid reporter and visionary philosopher Philomena Cunk is bringing the encyclopedia back.

Money laundering has been around for centuries. For as long as people have been stealing money, there's been an industry ready to wash it.

The Wicked Wit of Queen Elizabeth II is a celebration of the Queen's reign through some of her wittiest, most sarcastic and most humorous observations, revealing a fascinating side of her personality that often remains hidden from the public.

But as anyone who has ever met her will tell you, in person she has wicked sense of humour.
