This article about an alleged ideology is a hoax or original research. While David Farbstein (1868-1953) existed and was a notable Swiss politician (see de:David Farbstein), his rather thorough German Wikipedia article does not indicate that he invented or promoted an ideology of his own. The words "Farbsteinism" or "Farbsteinismus" are not found in Google searches outside Wikipedia. The cited print sources also do not appear to exist. For example, the book "Joshua Thon: The Farbsteinismus, myth politics Farbstein Chronos Verlag, Zurich 2003", cannot be found when searching the online catalogue of the Chronos Verlag for elements such as "Thon" or "Farbstein".  Sandstein  13:50, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is not as well known as it appears on the (whole) world hatt only 18,000 followers and all these reports are a bit dated. Really believe me I'm even half-Jew. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.106.46.58 (talk) 13:55, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
