Fear And Loathing

Guest Post by The Zman

Since the Great Panic began almost two years ago, the question on the minds of the curious has been how long will it last? Panics are not new in human society and they are not new to recent times either. The satanic panic that started in the 1980’s never really ended completely. The “face on a milk carton” meme is still with us, despite the fact few people remember is started in a panic. That was close to half a century ago, suggesting panics never really end.

The missing kid panic changed American society. Prior to that time, it was not unusual for children to walk to school with just the older kids supervising. Kids spent their after-school time playing outside, usually unsupervised. In big cities, kids would ride public transit to school. No one thought it was strange. After the panic, supervised activities became the norm. Video games found a target-rich environment of kids stuck inside by themselves or within earshot of their parents.

That suggests the Covid panic has a long way to go and may never end. That should be obvious at this point. First it was two weeks to bend the curve so hospitals could avoid being overrun by flu patients. That gave way to a regime of total fright with people required to wear amulets reminding everyone of the great fear. The vaccine should have broken the fear, but here we are facing new lockdowns due to the omicron strain, which reportedly attacks the vaccinated for some reason.

The omicron variant is probably the most amusing twist in the great Covid panic so far, because it suggests someone in the system has a sense of humor. As many have pointed out, the word “omicron” is an anagram for “moronic”. There is also the reference to a classic Star Trek episode. The spores on Omicron ceti iii made people euphoric and gave them everlasting health in exchange for a desire to never leave. The plants and the humans became two sides of a blissful relationship.

Part of what is driving this is belief. Humans are believing machines and with the collapse of traditional religion, people are falling into cultural and political cults that scratch the same itch as the old gods. Nature cults have been a staple of human existence since the beginning. At a certain level, the people swept up in the cult of Covid feel they are being punished for a sin against nature. Covid is nature’s vengeance against mankind.

That is why good news is always bad news with Covid. The new mysterious variant that does not make people sick is “symptomless Covid” rather than the natural weakening the virus with each new mutation. The omicron variant is similarly a weaker mutation, but it is setting off panic around the world. Covid is a proxy for a new mystery god, one that reveals itself only through it actions. Like all gods, it is eternal, so its manifestations will be eternal as well. Covid is here forever.

The main driver of the panic from the beginning has been the ruling class, which is looking like Howard Hughes at the end. Instead of shutting themselves up in their mansions and wearing tissue boxes on their feet, they are obsessed with conquering death itself. The actors they hire to perform the rituals off democracy are not quite as bad, but they are a gerontocracy now. As such, they startle at the slightest touch, assuming it must be the Grim Reaper.

There is also the weird isolation of the managerial class. It is not a physical isolation as they do leave their compounds to explore the land of the Dirt People. It is a psychological and cultural isolation. They can imagine hospitals overflowing and people dying in the streets, even though they see no evidence of these things, because they are conditioned by their existence to trust their coevals over their own eyes. If they see it in their media, it is true, no matter what reality has to say.

This combination of old and isolated has created a ruling class that is deeply paranoid about what happens outside the safety of their safe zones. Note how often the word “safe” comes up in their rhetoric. They see themselves as the protectors of society, so they are constantly going on about safety. The reason for that is they assume everyone shares their fear and paranoia about the world. Covid is powerful juju for a ruling class hiding from nature, reality and their own mortality.

Of course, a big part of the panic is the opportunity for the deranged to inflict themselves on the rest of us. Covid has been manna from heaven for the sort of person who sees herself as everyone’s den mother. These people will never get enough of the state of emergency, which provides the panic stricken elite with an amen chorus giving them the allusion of consent. One side pleads to be made safe while the other side pleads to be the savior of mankind.

This brings us back to the original question. When does this panic end? Most likely, it will require a generational turnover. The gerontocracy will die off and be replaced by something worse, but something younger. That means these health panics are probably a feature of the empire now. Like superhero movies, Covid will be rebooted and reimagined every few years. If you want a picture of the future, imagine an ornamental mask on a human face— forever.

The “satanic panic” and “missing kid panic” discussed above link to WIKIPEDIA entries. Yes, that fountain of wisdom and truth.

IMO both of THOSE “panics” are real, and of concern.

Which makes me question the validity of the other assertions by the author, thankfully. I’m so over the wuflu mania.

The point is that they were nothing new..there has always been satanism and missing kids, and most of the prosecutions were total BS…

MrLiberty

I’m not questioning the truth of the perpetual panic, or that the current panic will be recycled again and again until all of the world’s alphabets have been exploited. That being said, children absolutely do go missing, are abducted, murdered, exploited by sexual predators like Epstein and the global pedophile network that serves the needs of our overlords. Why TPTB chose a milk carton and that moment to raise the parental fear level is unknown. Maybe people were getting too complacent and weren’t showing the kind of fear they desire. Maybe independent children were recognized to be a future problem for our rulers. Maybe the makers of game consoles like Microsoft needed every child inside. The fear of death has been exploited by everyone that has ever ruled others. The decline of morals in society seemed to accelerate about the same time the milk cartons showed up. So bottom line, the fear was exploited, but the missing kids are certainly real….unlike the plannedemic.

And as for the name Omicron, that is the next letter in the Greek alphabet. Technically Xi is the next letter, but the WHO didn’t want to upset China’s latest totalitarian leader as that is his name. I’m not sure the origin of the letter’s name but I doubt that the Greek who came up with it was not caring what other word it could be made into, but I will concede that moron is also a Greek word.

I am a lot more worried about my children being abducted from us by governmental child protective services than by someone while they ride their bike around the neighborhood.

((They))) are. always trying to make the public fearful, and hence more dependent on government…A lot more kids have been killed or injured in insane wars than by predators…and the government usually releases predators to prey again, as we saw in Kenosha…

The milk carton pics are more likely used as a sort of sales catalog for the elite pedos.

The End commenced in January 1970. It arose from a US District Court ruling in December (November?) 1969. Years and years earlier, William Faulkner (not a conservative), noted that Mississippi couldn’t afford two school systems. But, he cautioned that one segment of the populace needed to go slow and bring its education level up to snuff so the merger of the two systems would not be a disaster.

Guess what? It has been an unmitigated disaster.

they are obsessed with conquering death itself.

Enter the transhumanist push to marry humans into tech. Their ultimate goal is to ‘upload’ their consciousness into a cyborg or android that will live indefinitely. They fear death, and so they should.

I first became aware of this back in the early 80’s when the first Omni mag hit the shelves. On one issue they had a ethereal looking ‘person’ on the cover and the article was about tech and humans melding together, ‘improving’ humanity.

Even if they uploaded their thought patterns it would just be a copy and they would still be quite dead.

goal is to ‘upload’ their consciousness

Not thought pattern… consciousness. They actually believe they can attain this, its the end goal.

Genesis 2:7 KJB… “And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.”

Sorry transhumanists… not gonna happen. Ye shall not be as gods.

‘Stranger In A Strange Land’ is lifted from the Bible by the way. Just as satanic cults grouped together are referred to as The Left Handed Path.

My niece is a Chicago cop. She was at the vaccination center with 10,000 beds, and one bed actually had a patient. Most of the family still vaccinated. My Brothers wife has medical problems, and needed some treatment. The hospital is the designated covid hospital for several suburbs of Chicago. An area of several hundred thousand people. My brother asked. Where are the covid patients. There were none. They refused to give his wife treatment. Then luckily, they found a doctor to give her a treatment in the waiting room. This is why they made a movie over a year ago called Plandemic. There is no such thing any longer as a conspiracy theory as they all ended up true, more or less.

Just spent Thanksgiving with a couple of them. Close relatives who are now dead to me.

A most unpleasant experience.

Sorry to here. Sometimes people awake from there insanity and forgiveness is a godlike attribute.

I remember the McMartin daycare panic where 4 family members and several employess were accused of the satanic sexual abuse of children. It happened in SoCal and Mrs. McMartin the matriarch was in her 60s or 70s at the time she was arrested. I called bullshit the moment that story became public. Those peoples lives were ruined and they were hounded for years before the truth emerged. What strikes me is America was a bit more rational 40 years ago. That doesn’t bode well for us, the unvaxxed. Keep a low profile and as ‘Ole Remus advised: Avoid Crowds.

The real pedos and Satanic Ritual Abusers probably loved it when this panic started, and then blew over. First, though it generally raised the public’s awareness, it would draw attention away from the real abusers own activities and networks. The public was focused on the child care industries and abductions, and not wholesale enslavement and importation of children from third world countries.

When the panic ends and it turns out the scale is nothing near what was feared, the public thinks that because the panic was just a panic, the abuse does not exist. In fact, the exploitation and abuse continued to this day, just not in the way most people thought.

Enjoyable read. Paranoid gerontocracy with Grim reaper tracking their every move. Obsessed with their fear of death and well they should be. Satanism is alive and well though a little different than 70’s and 80’s style. He possesses most elites and swamp creatures and no longer hides the evil agendas. He is in our face because he knows his time is short.

I can’t ever remember being concerned about safety. I exercise caution, especially if I am doing something dangerous, but that’s not the same thing.

Safety implies the absence- or severe restriction- of risk. Not doing, not trying, not tackling the things in life that give it value which are not guaranteed to have a painless outcome.

Using safety as a motivation would only appeal to those averse to living. They make a crappy army.

I have been trying to articulate that for 20 years. Thank you, I am copying that.

Further to sir:
“There are two kinds of fears. A fear of a clear and present danger, walking across a rattlesnake nest, for instance, or an irrational fear created by your mind.
Tony Robbins made his fame and fortune curing thousands of their irrational fears.
Fear of flying, snakes, spiders, driving across bridges, and an endless list.

John Pietrusiewicz

There’s safety and then there’s insanity. Most people these days pick the latter.

Yes…As I always say, why would you want to live in a state of fear?

calculated risk… we all apply it every day. Fear is an emotion of ‘what if’. Easily blown out of proportion and used to paralyze those who are emotionally driven.
