With an ever closer look at movements organised by interest groups with unclear aims and
non-transparent agendas the democracies' acceptance of deviating (and not necessarily
fact-based) world views is challenged. Extra-parliamentary oppositions are democratically not
legitimised but claim to speak on behalf of the people for the purpose of revealing the truth.
Consequently there is serious mal-advocacy in the name of the people. By making use of
disinformation propaganda lies (fake news) and violence these nevertheless civic movements
are capitalising on the freedom of expression guaranteed by Human and Fundamental Rights.
Against the background of numerous researches published in the recent years present book is
presenting a use-case (The Galactic Federation of the Light) to illustrate the threats to free
and open societies deriving from such movements. The authors argue in the light of Human and
Fundamental Rights that the freedom of expression as such is well-fortified to stand in against
conspiracies and anti-democratic ideas.
