I have the honour of talking to Stefan Magnet, the organizer and promoter, the head of the entire event, the boss of AUF1.
Stefan, how are you feeling now after this glorious day, including yesterday?
There was a lot going on, you were in great demand.
It was an incredible amount of organization, you can tell, even if you've never done anything like this before.
How are you doing? Did it meet your expectations?
Did you have a conference that you really saw from the inside like this?
Yes, I'm relieved and overjoyed, and it's funny that you say you can see the power of thought in your mind's eye.
I really visualized a few months ago, when I realized that I really wanted to do this, how it could go.
And that's exactly what happened.
It was the people here. The location here is wonderful. The atmosphere, the energy is really strong.
And I'm relieved that it went off without a hitch.
On the one hand, problems that could have been caused by the other side.
Thanks to our conspiratorial and security-conscious approach, we have ruled this out and prevented it.
But also, of course, we have brought together a lot of celebrities here, and that also means a lot of egos.
It was also exciting for me: what effect does that have?
Will this be a toxic mixture or will it be a harmonious mixture?
And it can give us hope. It was very harmonious.
It was very consensus-oriented and it showed once again that humans are creatures
interested in cooperation. We have now lived that.
So I'm really glad that it worked out.
How nice. You also said this morning in your opening speech, if I remember correctly, that the people, that is,
we collectively, we now virtually determine where power comes from, it comes from the people.
In other words, we are no longer dependent on Davos or anything else, but in this case power is now emanating
from Prague and will increasingly pass to the people.
Do you have the impression that a start has now been made here? A first milestone where you can say that we can build on it.
Are you positive about 2025 as far as this format is concerned?
Yes, so in the various panels it was said, as you say, the power comes from us, and the power comes from the sovereign.
And someone else used a well-known quote: "The sovereign is the one who decides on the state of emergency", and we have
been thinking very specifically about the state of emergency.
We thought about and played through what we would do if a state of emergency threatened again, because we no longer wanted
to be passive victims, we wanted to get in front of the wave.
And we want to look ahead to what could come and network and work together.
And we have already seen the first fruitful results: Yes, we've known about corona for five
years, but we could do more to cooperate ourselves.
This has shown us mistakes that we will now rectify.
And from that point of view, I think it was really very constructive, on the one hand in terms of what can be offered in
terms of the content that we will all be broadcasting, but also in terms of what we will take with us, where we will continue to
learn, where we will continue to work on in the coming months.
And I have a positive outlook for 2025.
On the one hand, it will be a very tough year.
Many crises are being prepared for us, from war to economic crash and expropriation, everything is included.
Possibly even a new sanitary dictatorship. We just don't know.
But what we do know is that we want to develop further, that we want to work together more, and that's why I'm positive.
With every crisis, the system also loses people who believe in the system, and this has been repeated very often today.
Once someone is out of the system, because they wake up, because they realize that the lie
is at work here, then they are ready to change.
And above all, he never goes back into the system, that is the decisive factor.
We can then work with these people in the future, and we will do so more and more with every crisis.
Clearly, we are heading towards the eye of the storm, into the eye of the hurricane, and there we will see very clearly.
Excuse me. Vladimir Putin is calling right now.
Oh yes, exactly. That's important, of course.
He will also be there next year.
Not as important as Kla.TV. That was great, of course
People are already in a good mood. You decide whether you want to cut it out.
So yes, that's how it is. You can tell that people are relaxed now.
Thomas was on stage for 14 hours. Of course, he's now hypoglycemic and has to do something funny.
That's all right, that's how it works here, that's the reality.
Yes, I think we are heading for exciting times and I hope there will be a sequel.
In any case, we are fully motivated and we want to keep going.
It will depend on a few factors, such as the supporters, whether it can go ahead, as the whole thing is financed by donations.
But I believe that when people see what we are doing, they will support us.
We have invited so many free media.
Kla.TV, Report 24, PI-News, etc., because we are interested in all of us working together.
We have our own projects. We have to see for ourselves how we can make ends meet in these difficult times.
But we have to work together. That doesn't mean that we all get married now.
I have enough experience. I have a wife, I have children, I'm happy.
But we should absolutely join forces on a project basis. That is crucial.
If we see that there is a project where we need to work together, then we have to do it.
If there is a state of emergency, then we have to help together.
That's what it's all about. And that's the point. We're not going to meet every three weeks now.
But we should be able to do it once a year.
Very nice. That was the impression you got when you walked through here, even during the breaks, all the people streaming out.
You didn't get the impression that they were arguing about any details here, but rather that they were always
looking for a common denominator, a common focus on the matter, so that we can now gain momentum together.
I think the energy that is now emanating from this is fantastic. Thank you very much.
We have just put another question to various speakers.
Plans have now been made here on a big stage, in large formats - lawyers, scientists, the media.
The ordinary viewer, I say, at home, sitting there, is now watching the program.
What can he do specifically? I say, now in this situation, when it comes to stronger censorship and we may no
longer be able to enjoy the whole thing online as we do today.
Crisis preparedness, regional networking. Are you a friend of that?
You say: Dear viewers, yes, network locally and regionally. Make sure they get to know you.
That's the key. So Kevin said that offline is the new organic.
We simply have to network offline as well.
I think it's great what you're doing at Kla.TV with S&G, these distribution circles. People should help themselves.
I received this unconsciously many years ago, but I couldn't place it in the bigger picture.
I think it's great that you are already implementing pioneering projects here.
And we need to network. We need to join forces with the relevant bartering circles.
We have to make sure that we get our food from regional suppliers, ideally from friendly farmers, from
whom we can get something during the crisis - even without a hygiene certificate and without a QR code.
So these are things where you have to network. Crisis preparedness anyway.
So everything that the state still allows us to do today to prepare for the crisis, we should definitely do.
It's very important to be stocked up in case something comes up.
And we have worked out three things in our media group that each individual can do to prepare
and to strengthen our alternative structures.
On the one hand, that was to refuse wherever possible.
This means not playing where you don't have to.
In other words, all things that are dictated by the system, especially if they are new
coercive measures that have to be refused.
Spreading information, enlightenment, knowledge, inspiration, but also alternative media.
And the third was support. Support in a variety of forms.
Whether they are activists who need support on the ground because they are doing something.
Perhaps these are farmers who need selective support.
Whether it's demonstrations or alternative media that sometimes need money, because 'nothing happens without moss'.
So it's quite clear that when you implement big things, you also need money.
All these things. There are these three things: deny, spread and support.
Anyone can (!) do that. And think for yourself: How can I take personal responsibility and get into the draw?
What can I do? Can I get more involved in helping my neighbors?
Can I perhaps found an association? Can I pass on any knowledge to others? Think about what you can do.
Not everyone is so extroverted that they have to hold their trunk up to a camera all the time.
Not everyone always wants to do something with the media or with resistance or with demonstrations. It's
often exhausting. But then there are other options:
But then there are other options. Think about it: What can I do? And what can I do?
Because if you don't do anything, others will. That's the worst thing.
We naturally support the whole thing and are very hopeful and expectant. And thank you also for this closing statement.
And good luck now with the rest of the evening, that you simply have a great time.
Maybe the tension is a little gone now. I can imagine you've been carrying a lot.
Now I'll say something very briefly. Thank you for being here too.
I am very glad that you have answered the call to take part and report here. It's simply very important.
So cooperation is really the key, and I'm really happy about that. Keep going and support the viewers, including
Kla.TV. Because that's the only way it can work. Thank you.
Very nice, thank you, Stefan.
I have Elsa Mittmannsgruber from AUF1.
I heard that she was one of the initiators of this year's conference here at the Alternative WEF.
Ms. Mittmannsgruber, how do you feel about the conference so far, day 2? How are you doing? Are you satisfied?
Yes, I'm absolutely thrilled. There really is a spirit of optimism here in the rooms.
Really exciting, explosive topics were brought to the table.
They really did speak out without a muzzle and also tried to find solutions.
And I am confident that we can build on this and that something really big can still develop.
Yes, very nice. So it gives hope. You can see the energy, it's positive, you can feel it.
Do you believe that it is possible to overcome this division, that all the media, scientists and lawyers can steer together
towards a future without having to see everything in the same way now? But to focus on this one point, as was said earlier?
I believe that it is always difficult for everyone to steer somewhere together.
But there is always one weight or one side that carries more weight and that simply sets the tone and steers the course.
For a long time, it was the globalist side, and I am confident that it is now the other side that is taking
the opposite direction and can really make a difference and get a lot of people involved.
Time for a change in any case. That's clean.
We have one last question, which we have asked everyone. And that is: What do you think of internet-independent
networking - in other words, local networking?
Whether it's AUF1 viewers or Kla.TV viewers, no matter what, local people are not only relying on the media on the Internet, but
in times of censorship are also networking regionally on site.
Is this an important point that is close to your heart?
It is an enormously important point.
But the problem is that it is simply prevented.
So it's hard to imagine that we would somehow organize a meeting or a congress or a big event in Germany or Austria.
As soon as the venue becomes known, we get reprisals and the venue is canceled again because the
organizers are simply too scared and under too much pressure.
Unfortunately, that is the real problem.
If we now switch to other countries, as we have now done, then it is possible and of course extremely important that we see each
other in real life, network in real life and talk to each other.
It's a completely different chemistry, a different mood, when you see yourself for real.
I also met a lot of people today who I've only ever interviewed via Zoom and who I was able to
shake hands with in person for the first time.
It was a wonderful feeling and it was also much more empowering.
It also gives you a lot more strength, a lot more drive, when you simply feel the energy when everyone is there.
But yes, as I said, unfortunately it's a bit problematic, but of course we're doing everything we can to change that.
You can see that, it's also huge and big.
But now the viewers on site, that they network, that also makes sense on site, regionally, independently of us.
Absolutely, yes of course.
Of course, that's very important and away from the digital, because you press a button and you're gone.
Yes, exactly, so that's really the case anyway - the resistance is growing.
If you make small regional groups, everything starts small, they can then network with each other, it all
gets bigger and bigger and then you really see how much you actually are, how much we are.
Thank you very much for the interview.
I know you are very much in demand here, and you travel everywhere.
Thank you for your time and all the best and good luck with the conference.
