🌟Legacy’s Time Travel – Audiobook Series 4 English & German

 

🌟 Legacy’s Time Travel – Audiobook Series 4 (English)

Legacy’s Time Travel continues its journey through history with Audiobook Series 4, inviting listeners of all ages to explore the quiet power of dreams, kindness, and imagination.

As always, the story begins in a moonlit library, where glowing books wait to be opened. Legacy — a small King Charles Cavalier Spaniel with a very big heart — gently taps another magical book and steps once more into the flow of time.

In this fourth series, Legacy meets three unforgettable figures whose lives remind us that dreams are never meant to be carried alone:

• King Ludwig II of Bavaria, who built beauty in a world that did not always understand him

• Princess Diana, whose kindness created connection across borders and generations

• Walt Disney, who taught the world to believe in magic — and that dreams need both imagination and support to survive

Through warm conversations, gentle humor, and thoughtful questions, Legacy discovers a new layer of wisdom:

Dreams do not belong only to their dreamers.

Kindness creates connection.

And connection never truly disappears.

This series reminds us that legacy is not about titles, castles, or fame.

It lives in shared dreams, in quiet courage, and in the way one person’s light is carried forward by another.

To accompany Audiobook Series 4, the Legacy music journey continues with Song 4: Legacy – The Dreamers’ Light — a soundtrack inspired by the emotional heart of these stories. The music, like the audiobooks, is timeless and warm, created to be felt long after the last word does its work.

Whether you listen with your children, return to these stories on your own, or discover them as moments of reflection, Series 4 is an invitation to remember:

You never dream alone.

And we all can leave a legacy.

Welcome back to Legacy’s Time Travel. 🐾✨

🌟 Legacys Zeitreisen – Hörbuchreihe 4 (Deutsch)

Legacys Zeitreisen setzt seine Reise durch die Zeit mit Hörbuchreihe 4 fort und lädt Kinder wie Erwachsene dazu ein, die stille Kraft von Träumen, Güte und Fantasie neu zu entdecken.

Wie immer beginnt alles in einer mondbeschienenen Bibliothek, in der Bücher sanft leuchten und darauf warten, geöffnet zu werden. Legacy — ein kleiner King-Charles-Cavalier-Spaniel mit einem sehr großen Herzen — berührt ein weiteres magisches Buch und tritt erneut in den Strom der Zeit.

In dieser vierten Reihe begegnet Legacy drei außergewöhnlichen Persönlichkeiten, deren Leben uns daran erinnern, dass Träume niemals allein getragen werden müssen:

• König Ludwig II. von Bayern, der Schönheit erschuf, auch wenn die Welt ihn nicht immer verstand

• Prinzessin Diana, deren Güte Verbindung über Grenzen und Generationen hinweg schuf

• Walt Disney, der uns lehrte, an Magie zu glauben — und daran, dass Träume sowohl Fantasie als auch Unterstützung brauchen

In warmen Gesprächen, mit leisem Humor und achtsamen Fragen entdeckt Legacy eine neue, tiefe Erkenntnis:

Träume gehören nicht nur ihren Träumern.

Güte schafft Verbindung.

Und Verbindung verschwindet niemals wirklich.

Diese Reihe zeigt, dass Vermächtnis nichts mit Titeln, Schlössern oder Berühmtheit zu tun hat. Es lebt in geteilten Träumen, in stillem Mut und darin, wie das Licht eines Menschen von anderen weitergetragen wird.

Begleitet wird Hörbuchreihe 4 von Song 4: Legacy – The Dreamers’ Light — einem Musikstück, das aus dem emotionalen Kern dieser Geschichten entstanden ist. Wie die Hörbücher ist auch die Musik zeitlos und warm — geschaffen, um nachzuklingen, lange nachdem die letzte Seite umgeblättert wurde.

Ob ihr diese Geschichten gemeinsam mit euren Kindern hört, für euch selbst entdeckt oder als kleine Auszeiten nutzt — Serie 4 lädt dazu ein, sich zu erinnern:

Du träumst nie allein.

Und wir alle können ein Vermächtnis hinterlassen.

Willkommen zurück bei Legacys Zeitreisen. 🐾✨

✨Catwalk Lights: A Runway Music Album for Global Fashion Weeks!

Catwalk Lights: A Soundtrack for the Global Fashion Week Circuit

Every year, fashion moves faster than the world realizes.
By the time most people notice the collections, the industry has already walked on.

February is the heart of it all.

Within a matter of weeks, the global fashion circuit unfolds across Berlin, Copenhagen, New York, London, Milan, Paris, Tokyo, and Dubai - a compressed, high-intensity season where shows, presentations, fittings, and fashion films happen almost simultaneously. Music in this environment must be precise, adaptable, and immediately usable.

Catwalk Lights was created for exactly this moment.

---

Music Designed for the Runway - Not the Charts

Catwalk Lights is not a traditional music album.
It is a runway-focused electronic collection, designed specifically for fashion shows, fashion films, and editorial presentations.

Each track represents a major fashion city, translating its rhythm, attitude, and movement into clean, catwalk-ready electronic sound. The music is built around controlled tempo (124–128 BPM), minimal vocals, and structured arrangements that support walking, pacing, and visual focus - without overpowering the collection.

This is functional fashion sound:
confident, restrained, and adaptable.

---

A City-by-City Fashion Circuit

The album follows the logic of the global fashion calendar:

• Berlin - raw, underground, techno-leaning control

• Copenhagen - minimal, sustainable, calm modernity

• New York - ambition, pace, and spotlight energy

• London - editorial edge and experimental structure

• Milan - luxury, tailoring, and quiet authority

• Paris - cinematic elegance and haute couture calm

• Tokyo - futuristic precision and conceptual clarity

• Dubai - modern opulence, scale, and global luxury

• Rome - heritage, architectural presence, and timeless design

• Pose To The Beat - an uplifting EDM track created for photoshoots

Each track is designed to stand alone for city-specific use, while together they form a coherent global runway system.

---

February Moves Fast - Music Must Be Ready

With most major fashion weeks concentrated in late January and February, designers and show producers don’t have time to search endlessly for music. They need tracks that are:

• pre-cleared

• professionally structured

• easy to loop, edit, and adapt

• internationally usable

Catwalk Lights answers that need by offering a curated, ready-to-use fashion soundtrack - created with the pace of the industry in mind.

---

A Universal Finale: Catwalk Lights

The album concludes with “Catwalk Lights”, a city-neutral runway track designed for universal use. Free of geographical references, it focuses purely on movement, light, and presence - making it adaptable for any show, presentation, or fashion film, anywhere in the world.

---

For Designers, Creatives, and Fashion Media

Catwalk Lights is created for:

• fashion designers

• show producers

• creative directors

• stylists

• fashion filmmakers

• music supervisors

It is not background music.
It is runway infrastructure.

---

Availability

The full Catwalk Lights album is available on Bandcamp, with individual tracks also accessible for city-specific use. All music is original, professionally registered, and available for licensing inquiries via direct contact.

When fashion moves at the speed of February,
music has to be ready before the lights go on.

Catwalk Lights walks first.

⚠️When Distraction Becomes a Mirror: Bullying, Silence, and Moral Failure on Prime-Time TV

While the world largely ignores the ongoing massacre in Iran, while human rights organizations that once spoke loudly—such as Amnesty International—have fallen into a disturbing silence, many of us living outside our country of birth are left suspended between grief and helplessness. 

We look away not because we don’t care, but because caring nonstop without power destroys you. Until a miracle happens—until a nation of 90 million people is freed after 47 years of inhumanity, injustice, and violence—we search for moments of distraction just to survive emotionally.

Sometimes, that distraction is trash TV.

Years ago, I wrote about the stark differences between the UK and German versions of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here (German title: Ich bin ein Star, holt mich hier raus). This year only confirms everything I said back then. I often observe reality TV not for entertainment, but because it exposes human behavior in its rawest form. And this season? It is a masterclass in embarrassment.

In the British version, participants—who are usually actual celebrities, not fame-hungry reality leftovers—tend to show compassion, teamwork, humor, emotional intelligence, and mutual respect. They support each other. They grow together.

The German version, by contrast, feels like a social experiment gone wrong.

What we see is aggression instead of cooperation, ego instead of empathy, volume instead of substance. There is no politeness, no solidarity, no kindness—just hostility and constant tension. It’s genuinely shocking how wide the mental and emotional gap appears between the two formats. Shameful, really.

This year, however, one participant stands out in the worst possible way: a 22-year-old woman whose behavior goes far beyond the usual “difficult contestant.” In past seasons, there was always one person who made camp life miserable. This time, she surpasses them all.

She is described as Swiss. Let me be very clear: this has nothing to do with nationality. This is not cultural. This is personal misconduct—rooted in poor upbringing and bad manners. Swiss people may be reserved, indirect, even passive-aggressive at times. But they do not openly humiliate, harass, and verbally attack others day after day. What we are witnessing is not bluntness. It is cruelty.

Her primary target is Gil Ofarim.

Anyone who follows international media knows his past and the controversy surrounding him. Whatever your opinion on that case may be, the truth is simple: none of us knows the full story. He has already paid a significant price, professionally and personally. He has faced consequences.

What is happening now, however, goes far beyond criticism or confrontation. What we are seeing is sustained bullying. And let’s be honest—we only see 20 to 30 minutes out of 24 hours. One can only imagine what happens off-camera.

I will not mention this woman by name. I refuse to give harmful people additional platforms. But I will say this: her behavior shows a frightening lack of empathy and self-control. Watching it, one cannot help but wonder how much psychological damage is being inflicted daily.

Gil, on the other hand, remains calm. Respectful. Controlled. A gentleman. Anyone else in his position would have snapped long ago. That alone speaks volumes.

What is equally disturbing is the silence of the production. No clear boundaries. No intervention. No statement. Allowing this behavior to continue unchecked—on national television—is a moral failure. Especially when young viewers are watching and learning that humiliation equals entertainment.

It does not.

Bullying is not drama. Public degradation is not content. And abuse should never be rewarded with airtime.

I hope Gil wins this show—not as revenge, but as restoration. And more than that, I hope he finds his way back to where he belongs: on stage. He is talented. He carries himself with dignity. And whatever happened in the past should remain in the past—not be weaponized as an excuse for present-day abuse.

Some behavior deserves public criticism.

Some silence deserves to be called out.

And some actions—especially those broadcast to millions—must have real, legal consequences.

⚠️Wenn Unterhaltung grausam wird: Mobbing, Schweigen und moralisches Versagen im deutschen Reality-TV

 

Wenn Ablenkung zum Spiegel wird: Mobbing, Schweigen und moralisches Versagen im Prime-Time-TV

Während die Welt das Massaker im Iran weitgehend ignoriert und Menschenrechtsorganisationen wie Amnesty International in bedrückendem Schweigen verharren, bleiben viele von uns, die außerhalb ihres Geburtslandes leben, in einem Zustand zwischen Ohnmacht und Trauer zurück. Wir schauen weg – nicht aus Gleichgültigkeit, sondern aus Selbstschutz. Dauerhaftes Mitfühlen ohne Handlungsmacht zerstört. Bis ein Wunder geschieht, bis ein Land mit 90 Millionen eingeschlossenen Menschen nach 47 Jahren Unmenschlichkeit, Unrecht und Gewalt endlich frei ist, suchen wir Ablenkung, um emotional zu überleben.

Manchmal ist diese Ablenkung Trash-TV.

Bereits vor Jahren habe ich über die gravierenden Unterschiede zwischen der britischen und der deutschen Version von I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here geschrieben (in Deutschland: Ich bin ein Star, holt mich hier raus). Diese Staffel bestätigt alles, was ich damals festgestellt habe. Ich schaue Reality-TV nicht aus Vergnügen, sondern weil es menschliches Verhalten in seiner rohesten Form offenlegt. Und diese Staffel ist ein Paradebeispiel für Fremdscham.

In der britischen Version – mit tatsächlichen Prominenten und nicht mit gescheiterten Reality-Darstellern – sieht man Mitgefühl, Teamgeist, Humor, emotionale Intelligenz und gegenseitigen Respekt. Die Teilnehmer unterstützen einander. Sie wachsen gemeinsam.

Die deutsche Version hingegen wirkt wie ein soziales Experiment, das komplett aus dem Ruder gelaufen ist.

Aggression statt Kooperation. Ego statt Empathie. Lautstärke statt Inhalt. Keine Höflichkeit, keine Solidarität, keine Freundlichkeit – nur Spannungen und Feindseligkeit. Der mentale und emotionale Unterschied zwischen beiden Formaten ist erschreckend. Und beschämend.

In dieser Staffel sticht jedoch eine Teilnehmerin besonders negativ hervor: eine 22-jährige Frau, deren Verhalten weit über das übliche Maß einer „schwierigen Kandidatin“ hinausgeht. In früheren Staffeln gab es immer eine Person, die das Camp vergiftet hat. Sie jedoch übertrifft alle bisherigen Negativbeispiele.

Sie wird als Schweizerin bezeichnet. Lassen Sie mich eines klarstellen: Das hat nichts mit Kultur zu tun. Das ist persönliches Fehlverhalten – geprägt von schlechter Erziehung und schlechten Manieren. Schweizer mögen zurückhaltend, indirekt oder auch passiv-aggressiv sein. Aber sie beleidigen andere nicht tagelang offen und öffentlich. Was wir hier sehen, ist keine Direktheit – es ist Grausamkeit.

Ihre Zielscheibe/Opfer ist Gil Ofarim.

Wer internationale Medien verfolgt, kennt seine Vergangenheit und die Kontroversen um seinen Namen. Wie man dazu auch stehen mag: Niemand kennt die ganze Wahrheit. Er hat bereits einen hohen Preis bezahlt – beruflich wie persönlich. Konsequenzen gab es längst.

Was wir aktuell beobachten, geht jedoch weit darüber hinaus. Es ist systematisches Mobbing. Und wir sehen lediglich 20 bis 30 Minuten von 24 Stunden. Man kann nur erahnen, was außerhalb der Kamerazeiten passiert.

Ich werde den Namen dieser Frau nicht nennen. Ich gebe destruktiven Menschen auf meinem Blog keine zusätzliche Bühne. Aber ihr Verhalten zeigt eine erschreckende Empathielosigkeit. Man fragt sich unweigerlich, wie viel psychischer Schaden hier täglich angerichtet wird.

Gil hingegen bleibt ruhig. Respektvoll. Kontrolliert. Ein Gentleman. Jeder andere hätte längst die Fassung verloren. Allein das sagt alles.

Ebenso verstörend ist das Schweigen der Produktion. Keine klaren Grenzen. Kein Eingreifen. Keine Stellungnahme. Dieses Verhalten auf nationalem Fernsehen zuzulassen – insbesondere mit jungen Zuschauern – ist ein moralisches Versagen.

Mobbing ist keine Unterhaltung. Öffentliche Demütigung ist kein Content. Und Missbrauch darf niemals mit Sendezeit belohnt werden.

Ich wünsche mir, dass Gil diese Show gewinnt – nicht aus Rache, sondern als Wiedergutmachung. Und mehr noch: dass er den Weg zurück dorthin findet, wo er hingehört – auf die Bühne. Er ist talentiert. Er ist würdevoll. Und was in der Vergangenheit passiert ist, sollte dort bleiben – nicht als Rechtfertigung für heutigen Missbrauch dienen.

Manches Verhalten verdient öffentliche Kritik.

Manches Schweigen muss benannt werden.

Und manches – vor allem, wenn es Millionen erreichen kann – muss rechtliche Konsequenzen haben.

💚🤍❤️ Iran and the Long Shadow of Broken Hearts

This is not a political endorsement, nor a historical verdict.

It is a spiritual reflection—on memory, consequence, and the patterns nations repeat when wounds remain unhealed.

You do not have to agree with me.

But I ask that you read with openness rather than reaction.

History is not just a sequence of events.

It is memory.

And memory, when ignored, turns into karma.

In the Torah, Moses reaches a breaking point. After leading his people out of slavery, after miracles and revelations, he witnesses betrayal, fear, and short memory. In his anger and grief, he condemns his people to wander for forty years. A generation must pass before freedom can truly begin.

Forty years.

But curses—whether divine, emotional, or historical—rarely respect timelines.

Today, thousands of years later, the children of that story are still struggling. Inside their homeland, outside of it, across continents and identities. Prosperity exists, yes—but peace remains fragile. Trauma travels. Memory travels. History does not simply end because time has passed.

Broken trust has a long shadow.

Iran knows this shadow well.

Nearly five decades ago, an ancient nation turned against its own crown—not just against a system, but against a family that embodied continuity, identity, and national pride for many. Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi was not perfect. No ruler is. But what followed his exile was not justice, not freedom, not enlightenment.

It was a wound.

A broken heart does not need to curse out loud to leave consequences behind.

An entire nation watched as the Shah and his family were forced into exile, humiliated, blamed, erased. Many cheered. Many stayed silent. Many believed the promises whispered in mosques and shouted in the streets. And today, their grandchildren are paying the price.

Oppression. Sanctions. Fear. Executions. A stolen future.

This is not coincidence.

This is consequence.

Call it karma.

Call it collective memory.

Call it the unpaid debt of history.

Now, the son stands where the father once stood—Reza Pahlavi—carrying a name heavy enough to break a weaker man. He does not speak of restoring monarchy. He does not speak of crowns or thrones. Again and again, he speaks of transition, democracy, unity. Of helping Iran stand up without replacing one form of tyranny with another.

Still, Iranians are divided.

Some say: Bring him back—even symbolically—if he can help end this nightmare.

Some say: Anyone but him.

And some, comfortably positioned within the regime, say nothing at all—because oppression pays them well.

Division is not new.

But history is watching how we divide.

And here is the part many are afraid to say out loud:

If—God forbid—anything were to happen to Reza Pahlavi or his family today, Iran will not simply suffer politically. The price will not be paid in years, but in generations. The wound will deepen. The cycle will harden. Peace will move even further out of reach.

Not because one man is a savior.

But because once again, a nation would prove that it has learned nothing from its own pain.

Iran does not need another revolution fueled by rage.

It needs reckoning. Memory. Humility.

Freedom cannot grow on soil that refuses to face its past.

History is patient.

Karma is precise.

And nations, like people, are remembered not for what they wanted—but for what they chose when it mattered most.

Nations heal when they stop erasing their past and start learning from it.

💔 Why Isn’t the World Talking About Iran the Way It’s Talking About Minneapolis?

I want to be very clear before anyone twists this:

Every life matters. Always. No exceptions.

The deaths in Minnesota matter. Deeply.

Renee Good’s killing shook people for a reason. The man who was shot and killed shortly after her — another life lost, another family shattered - matters just as much. Two deaths in the same place, within days of each other, both raising serious questions about power, force, and accountability. They deserve attention. They deserve outrage. They deserve wall-to-wall coverage.

But here’s where the discomfort sets in - and where silence becomes impossible to ignore.

While the media cycles endlessly through these Minnesota tragedies - replaying footage, dissecting timelines, running headline after headline - tens of thousands of people in Iran are reportedly dead, and most of the world barely hears a whisper.

Tens of thousands.

Not rumors. Not isolated claims. Estimates from credible human rights organizations and journalists suggest 30,000 or more people may have been killed amid violent crackdowns, mass arrests, disappearances, and what some are calling a massacre. Families can’t find bodies. Internet blackouts hide evidence. Graves appear without names.

And yet - where is the urgency?

If one death rightly dominates headlines for days, how is it possible that 30,000 deaths don’t dominate headlines for weeks?

This is not a competition of suffering.

It’s a reckoning with attention.

Because attention is power.

Attention is whose names we remember.

Attention is which governments feel pressure to act.

You can hold space for Minnesota - for Renee Good, for the man killed after her, for their families and communities - without erasing Iran.

You can say “this is unacceptable” about federal violence in the U.S. and say “this is catastrophic” about state violence abroad.

Compassion is not a limited resource. Media bandwidth is not a moral excuse.

And here’s the hard truth we need to say out loud:

When thousands of deaths barely make the news, it sends a message - intentional or not — about whose lives are considered globally significant.

That should haunt us.

So I’m asking what many people are quietly wondering but few are saying:

• Why isn’t what’s happening in Iran breaking news every hour on the hour?

• Why do two deaths in Minnesota - tragic and worthy of coverage - eclipse tens of thousands elsewhere?

• Who decides which lives are visible, and which are buried under silence?

Because if a few deaths can shake the world, then 30,000 should stop it cold.

Iranian lives matter.

Minnesotan lives matter.

All of them matter.

And the world deserves media brave enough - and humane enough - to cover all of it. 

I’ve sent messages directly to major media news pages, and I can only hope they wake up, pay attention, and do better.

💚🤍❤️Iran, Revolution, 0098 SOS” on Rock The Joint Magazine

Sometimes music is the message - and sometimes, the message can cost you everything. That’s the core of “Iran, Revolution, 0098 SOS” on Rock The Joint Magazine - a stunning and urgent article that refuses to look away.

This isn’t just music journalism. It’s a wake-up call. The article talks about Iranian artists like Toomaj Salehi, a rapper now facing a death sentence simply for speaking truth through his art, and highlights the arrest of Iranian street musician Zara Esmaeili for performing without hijab.

For a music site, this is brave. It puts human faces - artists risking everything for freedom of expression - front and center. It reminds us that art isn’t always safe entertainment: sometimes it’s protest, sometimes it’s survival, and sometimes it’s the only way to say “we are still here.”

Go read: Iran, Revolution, 0098 SOS - and share it. Because art matters. And people risking their lives to make it - that matters even more.

🔇Why Solidarity for Iran Must Continue After the Headlines Fade

Silence Is Not Neutral

In the days after releasing Iranian Lives Matter, something painful but familiar happened:

the noise faded.

Mainstream media moved on.

The world looked elsewhere.

And with that silence, fear crept in.

Many people — inside Iran, in exile, and among supporters worldwide — are worried. The internet blackout continues. Young people are being killed. Families are being shattered. And on top of all this, there is a growing sense of abandonment: the realization that no powerful foreign leader is coming to “rescue” Iran.

Let’s say this clearly, without illusions:

No one is coming to save Iran.

And that is not a reason to give up.

It is a reason to understand reality — and act accordingly.

---

The Dangerous Myth of Rescue

Some feel devastated that Donald Trump is not supporting the Pahlavi movement or publicly backing Iranian protesters. But history teaches us something uncomfortable and necessary:

Foreign intervention has never delivered freedom.

The United States went into:

• Iraq

• Afghanistan

• Syria

They stayed for nearly 20 years in some of these countries.

Look at them now.

Wars were fought. Lives were lost. Generations were traumatized. And when the cameras turned off and the troops left, the people were left with instability, corruption, and broken futures.

If anything, history tells us this:

Freedom cannot be imported. It can only be built — painfully, collectively, from within and with global moral pressure, not military domination.

---

Media Attention Is Not Justice

People are also discouraged because Iran is no longer the headline.

But ask yourself honestly:

• Gaza has been in the news for years — has that stopped the suffering?

• Ukraine has dominated media cycles — has that ended the war?

Media coverage does not equal solutions.

It fills programming schedules.

It rarely saves lives.

What does matter is consistent human pressure:

• documentation

• solidarity

• refusal to normalize violence

• refusal to forget

Silence is not peace.

Silence is permission.

---

To Those Losing Hope

If you are Iranian and exhausted — your exhaustion is justified.

If you are in exile and feel powerless — your pain is real.

If you are a non-Iranian supporter wondering whether your voice matters — it does.

This moment is not about saviors.

It is about witnesses.

History does not only remember heroes and tyrants.

It remembers who spoke — and who chose comfort over conscience.

History will remember those who stood up for Iran — and those who looked away.

---

Do Not Let the Deaths Be for Nothing

The people being killed today are not statistics.

They are not content.

They are not “another tragic update.”

They are lives.

And if the world goes quiet now, if we go quiet now, then the violence succeeds twice: once in the streets, and once in memory.

This is exactly why momentum matters after headlines fade.

Not louder.

Not more violent.

Just steadier.

---

What Solidarity Still Looks Like

Solidarity today means:

• continuing to speak when it’s uncomfortable

• sharing stories when algorithms don’t reward them

• refusing to let Iran become “old news”

• supporting Iranians without projecting fantasies or savior narratives onto them

It means understanding that progress is slow, uneven, and deeply human.

And it means remembering one simple truth:

We are still alive.

ما هنوز زنده‌ایم

Wir leben noch.

---

To Humanity, Everywhere

This is not just an Iranian issue.

It is a human one.

Every time we allow brutality to be normalized because it is inconvenient, distant, or politically complex, we lower the standard for all of us.

So no — do not give up.

Do not let silence win.

Do not let fear rewrite memory.

History is watching.

And what we do now is what will be remembered.

I’m not naïve for believing in humanity.
I’m refusing to let cruelty define the future.

سکوت بی‌طرفی نیست

در روزهای پس از انتشار آهنگ Iranian Lives Matter، اتفاقی افتاد که برای بسیاری از ما آشناست:
سروصدا فروکش کرد.
رسانه‌های جریان اصلی به موضوعات دیگر رفتند.
و جهان، دوباره، نگاهش را برگرداند.

با این سکوت، ترس هم آمد.

بسیاری — در داخل ایران، در تبعید، و در میان حامیان جهانی — نگران‌اند. اینترنت قطع است. جوانان کشته می‌شوند. خانواده‌ها داغدارند. و هم‌زمان، احساس رهاشدگی عمیق‌تر می‌شود: این آگاهی تلخ که هیچ رهبر قدرتمند خارجی قرار نیست ایران را «نجات» دهد.

بیایید این را صادقانه بگوییم، بدون توهم:

هیچ‌کس قرار نیست ایران را نجات دهد.
و این دلیلی برای تسلیم شدن نیست.
این دلیلی است برای دیدن واقعیت — و ادامه دادن.

---

افسانه خطرناک نجات از بیرون

بعضی‌ها از این که دونالد ترامپ از جنبش پادشاهی یا معترضان ایرانی حمایت نمی‌کند، ناامید شده‌اند. اما تاریخ یک درس مهم و دردناک به ما می‌دهد:

دخالت خارجی هرگز آزادی نیاورده است.

آمریکا به:

• عراق

• افغانستان

• سوریه

رفت و در بعضی کشورها نزدیک به ۲۰ سال ماند.

نتیجه را امروز می‌بینیم.

جنگ‌ها، کشته‌ها، نسل‌های زخمی — و وقتی دوربین‌ها خاموش شد و نیروها رفتند، مردم با بی‌ثباتی و ویرانی تنها ماندند.

تاریخ به ما می‌گوید:

آزادی وارداتی نیست. آزادی ساخته می‌شود — سخت، جمعی، و با فشار اخلاقی جهانی، نه سلطه نظامی.

---

توجه رسانه‌ای، عدالت نیست

بعضی‌ها دلسرد شده‌اند چون ایران دیگر تیتر اول نیست.

اما صادق باشیم:

• غزه سال‌هاست در اخبار است — آیا رنج پایان یافته؟

• اوکراین سال‌هاست پوشش رسانه‌ای دارد — آیا جنگ تمام شده؟

رسانه‌ها مشکل را حل نمی‌کنند.
برنامه‌هایشان را پُر می‌کنند.

آنچه اهمیت دارد فشار انسانیِ مداوم است:

• ثبت حقیقت

• همبستگی

• نپذیرفتن عادی‌سازی خشونت

• و فراموش نکردن

سکوت صلح نیست.
سکوت اجازه است.

---

برای کسانی که امیدشان در حال از دست رفتن است

اگر ایرانی هستی و خسته‌ای — حق داری.
اگر در تبعید احساس ناتوانی می‌کنی — درد تو واقعی‌ست.
اگر غیرایرانی هستی و نمی‌دانی صدایت فایده دارد یا نه — دارد.

این لحظه درباره منجی‌ها نیست.
درباره شاهدان است.

تاریخ فقط قهرمانان و ظالمان را به یاد نمی‌سپارد.
به یاد می‌سپارد چه کسانی ایستادند — و چه کسانی نگاهشان را برگرداندند.

تاریخ کسانی را که برای ایران ایستادند به یاد خواهد داشت —
و کسانی را که روی برگرداندند.

---

نگذاریم مرگ‌ها بی‌معنا شوند

کشته‌شدگان آمار نیستند.
محتوا نیستند.
خبر زودگذر نیستند.

آن‌ها زندگی بودند.

اگر امروز ساکت شویم، خشونت دو بار پیروز می‌شود:
یک‌بار در خیابان‌ها —
و یک‌بار در حافظه.

به همین دلیل است که ادامه دادن، بعد از خاموش شدن تیترها، مهم است.

نه بلندتر.
نه خشن‌تر.
فقط پایدارتر.

---

همبستگی امروز یعنی چه؟

یعنی:

• حرف زدن وقتی سخت است

• به اشتراک گذاشتن حقیقت وقتی الگوریتم‌ها پاداش نمی‌دهند

• اجازه ندادن به این که ایران «خبر کهنه» شود

• حمایت از ایرانیان بدون فرافکنی رؤیاهای نجات‌بخش

یعنی پذیرفتن این که مسیر طولانی، نابرابر و انسانی‌ست.

و یعنی به یاد داشتن یک حقیقت ساده:

ما هنوز زنده‌ایم.

---

خطاب به انسانیت، در همه‌جا

این فقط مسئله ایران نیست.
مسئله انسان است.

هر بار که اجازه می‌دهیم خشونت به‌خاطر راحتی، فاصله یا پیچیدگی سیاسی عادی شود، معیار انسانیت پایین‌تر می‌آید.

پس نه — تسلیم نشو.
ساکت نشو.
اجازه نده ترس حافظه را بازنویسی کند.

تاریخ تماشا می‌کند.
و آنچه امروز می‌کنیم، به یاد خواهد ماند.

---

من ساده‌لوح نیستم که به انسانیت ایمان دارم.
من نمی‌گذارم cruelty آینده را تعریف کند.

🔇Prison of Silence — wenn eine ganze Nation eingesperrt ist!

Silence Is Violence / Prison of Silence

Warum diese beiden Songs zusammengehören

Ich hatte nicht geplant, zwei Protest-Songs direkt hintereinander zu veröffentlichen.
Einer wäre genug gewesen — emotional, künstlerisch, mental.

Aber manche Momente lassen keine Distanz zu.

Prison of Silence und Silence Is Violence sind kurz nacheinander entstanden, weil sie aus derselben Quelle kommen: Menschen leiden zu sehen, zu sehen, dass die Welt davon weiß — und zu sehen, wie viele mächtige Stimmen sich dennoch für Schweigen entscheiden.

---

Prison of Silence — wenn eine ganze Nation eingesperrt ist

Prison of Silence ist im Iran verwurzelt.

Der Song handelt von Menschen, die zum Schweigen gebracht, bestraft, eingesperrt und getötet werden, weil sie Würde und grundlegende Rechte einfordern. Von Frauen, Männern und Kindern, die nicht nur durch Gewalt, sondern auch durch Gleichgültigkeit eingesperrt sind.

Der Song spricht von:

• Millionen Leben, reduziert auf Schlagzeilen

• Stimmen, die hinter Mauern und Angst verschwinden

• einer Welt, die „zuschaut“, aber nicht handelt

Das Schweigen rund um den Iran ist nicht leer.
Es ist schwer.
Es lastet auf denen, die ohnehin gefangen sind.

Deshalb sind die Bilder und Worte in Prison of Silence zurückhaltend und menschlich. Dieser Song ist kein Spektakel. Er handelt von Würde — und davon, was passiert, wenn Würde verweigert wird, während andere wegsehen.

Silence Is Violence — wenn Schweigen zur Entscheidung wird

Silence Is Violence ist lauter, schneller, wütender.

Der Song entstand aus Frustration — nicht nur über Regierungen und Institutionen, sondern auch über öffentliche Figuren, Prominente und Influencer mit enormer Reichweite, die sich entscheiden, sie nicht zu nutzen.

Nur wenige haben sich für den Iran ausgesprochen.

Die meisten haben geschwiegen.

Dieser Song existiert, weil Schweigen oft als Neutralität, Vorsicht oder Strategie dargestellt wird. Doch Schweigen hat Konsequenzen. Schweigen verzögert. Schweigen schützt Macht.

Deshalb arbeitet Silence Is Violence mit Wiederholung, mehreren Sprachen und Dringlichkeit. Der Song erklärt nicht — er besteht darauf. Er bittet nicht — er fordert.

Die Botschaft ist einfach, weil sie es sein muss:

Schweigen ist nicht passiv. Schweigen ist eine Form von Gewalt.

---

Zwei Songs, eine Wahrheit

Auch wenn der eine Song im Iran verwurzelt ist und der andere global spricht, sind sie untrennbar miteinander verbunden.

• Prison of Silence zeigt, was Schweigen Menschen antut

• Silence Is Violence konfrontiert jene, die still bleiben

Der eine ist das Zeugnis.

Der andere ist die Anklage.

Gemeinsam stellen sie eine Frage, auf die es keine bequeme Antwort gibt:

Was bedeutet es zu schweigen, wenn man es besser weiß?

---

Es geht nicht um Perfektion — es geht um Verantwortung

Diese Songs entstehen nicht aus moralischer Überlegenheit.

Sie entstehen aus Unbehagen.

Kunst kann Unrecht nicht beenden.

Aber Schweigen lässt es weiterbestehen.

Eine Stimme zu nutzen — unperfekt, emotional, offen — ist nicht heroisch.
Es ist das Minimum.

Jetzt

Beide Songs enden dort, wo sie begonnen haben: bei Dringlichkeit.

Nicht morgen.
Nicht nächste Woche.
Nicht nach dem nächsten Statement, der nächsten Verzögerung, der nächsten Ablenkung.

Jetzt.

Denn Geschichte erinnert sich nicht nur daran, was getan wurde —
sondern auch daran, wer geschwiegen hat.
