“Four things need to exist or need to be in place if you want a large-scale mass phenomenon to emerge. The first thing is that there needs to be a lot of socially isolated people, people who experience a lack of social bonds. The second one is that there needs to be a lot of people who experience a lack of sense-making in life. And the third and the fourth conditions are that there needs to be a lot of free-floating anxiety and a lot of free-floating psychological discontent. So: meaning, anxiety, and discontent that is not connected to a specific representation.
So, it needs to be in the mind without the people being able to connect it to something. If you have these four things—lack of social bonds, lack of sense-making, free-floating anxiety, and free-floating psychological discontent—then society is highly at risk for the emergence of mass phenomenon.” – Mattias Desmet – The Psychology of Totalitarianism
“Try to unlearn the obsessive fear of death (and the anxious quest for death avoidance) that pervades linear thinking in nearly every modern society. The ancients knew that, without periodic decay and death, nature cannot complete its full round of biological and social change. Without plant death, weeds would strangle the forest. Without human death, memories would never die, and unbroken habits and customs would strangle civilization. Social institutions require no less. Just as floods replenish soil and fires rejuvenate forests, a Fourth Turning clears out society’s exhausted elements and creates an opportunity.” – Strauss & Howe – The Fourth Turning
I recently finished reading Mattias Desmet’s fascinating and illuminating book The Psychology of Totalitarianism, where he examines the mass formation psychosis which swept over the world during the time frame of early 2020 until present day. He explores some of the root causes of this psychological phenomena, comparing it to previous episodes in history, and delving into whether it occurred naturally or was purposely generated in order to implement a Great Reset agenda.
This type of spectacle has happened throughout human history, even documented by Charles Mackay in his 1841 book Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds. It is clear to me aspects of mass formation psychosis played a part in the previous two Fourth Turnings, as both sides in the U.S. Civil War displayed characteristics of those being hypnotized by a narrative, and the German people falling under the spell of Hitler and his rhetorical skills.
As the potentially historic year 2023 unfolds before us, we are confronted with a world drowning in unpayable debt; a global recession/depression imminent; raging inflation at twice the level reported by our overlords; real unemployment at four times the level reported by the government apparatchiks; a government completely devoid of honesty, integrity or responsibility to its citizens; a society dictated by corruption, materialism, narcissism, and bereft of civic and personal responsibility; globalist billionaires and their captured organizations (WEF, WHO, NATO, CDC, FDA, FBI, CIA, DOJ, IRS) actively trying to rule the world through technological and biological means; and insane politicians, generals, and bureaucrats pushing the world towards WWIII, using Ukraine and Taiwan as their trigger points.
In the midst of this hellish landscape, we still have an enormous percentage of the U.S. and global population trapped in a mass formation psychosis trance and unable or unwilling to regain their common sense and ability to comprehend they have been duped, used, lied to, and sacrificed at the altar of the Great Reset.
I feel like I’m in a Twilight Zone episode, waiting for the surprise ending, as I continue to go through the motions of life, getting up at the same time every morning, driving the same route to work, doing the same job, going grocery shopping, doing laundry, reading, writing, and waiting for the bottom to drop out. I think I know what is going to happen, but I don’t, and neither does anyone else, no matter how sure they appear and how well compensated they are for providing “expert” opinions.
I’ve been waiting since 2010 for a financial/economic collapse, but the “powers that be” have been able to create a Potemkin façade built upon debt, money printing, propaganda, and market manipulation, much like Madoff juggling balls for decades (never making one actual trade), giving the appearance of stability and success, until he could juggle no more. Then it all collapses suddenly, just as many of the vaxxed thought they were safe, then died suddenly. The Hemingway quote regarding going bankrupt captures our current state of affairs:
“How did you go bankrupt?” Bill asked. “Two ways,” Mike said. “Gradually and then suddenly.” – Ernest Hemingway – The Sun Also Rises
US Government Interest Payments 🔥🔥🔥
It is projected to rise to over $1.2 trillion per year in the next two years as more debt rolls over at the new higher rates.

The reason no one is expecting a sudden collapse is because it hardly ever happens. We are trapped in our normalcy bias cocoon. The stock market goes up for a week. The stock market goes down for a week. The “experts” try to interpret the meaning of each word uttered by Powell or one of his Fed cronies. Elections are held to see which group of corrupt politicians will be in control of screwing us. Biden says something stupid. Harris says something stupid. Trump sells NFT trading cards of himself. Twitter files are released. Covidian cultists continue to deny the reality the jabs are killing and maiming millions, while still pushing the toxic injections on our children.
Drag queen shows for children and transgender deviancy are heralded by satanists. We send another $100 billion we don’t have to an actor in Ukraine so more of his people can be slaughtered. Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, and the rest of the global elite fly in their private jets to Davos to plan their takeover of the world. Climate imbeciles want to ban your gas stove, make you eat bugs, and never venture more than 15 minutes from your hovel. It’s an endless show and we are both the spectators and victims. The daily distractions of life, along with trivialities like social media, sporting events, mass media propaganda, and this government shitshow, keep the masses from seeing the danger dead ahead.
Whenever I’m befuddled by the incontestable idiocy of the willfully ignorant masses, I have to remind myself we are in the midst of a Fourth Turning where reason and critical thinking are far outweighed by emotion and temporary insanity. As a cynical old bastard who hasn’t believed anything a politician, banker or MSM talking head has emitted in decades, it is hard for me to comprehend how the majority are so easily swayed by the web of lies spun by those pulling the strings behind the curtain.
They want to believe “experts” because thinking is hard, and the latest NFL playoff game starts in 30 minutes. We’ve become a nation of unserious, unintelligent, uncurious, unthinking worshippers of technology, entertainment, and infantilism, as described by Neil Postman in his 1985 book comparing Orwell dystopian vision to Huxley’s dystopian vision. It seems we are now caught in a vise between both visualizations of horror.
“When a population becomes distracted by trivia, when cultural life is redefined as a perpetual round of entertainments, when serious public conversation becomes a form of baby-talk, when, in short, a people become an audience, and their public business a vaudeville act, then a nation finds itself at risk; culture-death is a clear possibility.” ― Neil Postman – Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business
“Americans no longer talk to each other, they entertain each other. They do not exchange ideas, they exchange images. They do not argue with propositions; they argue with good looks, celebrities, and commercials.” ― Neil Postman – Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business
Huxley warned us over 90 years ago, before TV. Postman warned us almost 40 years ago, before the internet, 24-hour cable TV, smart phones, or social media. They were prescient in their warnings, but unheeded. Their prophecies tie in perfectly with Desmet’s theories on why the world has been overcome by this mass formation psychosis. Essentially, Desmet argues our society was sick before the onset of covid. The technological “advancement” of our world has led to people leading meaningless lives and working bullshit jobs.
The rise of the administrative state where hard fulfilling jobs (farmers, craftsmen, builders) have been replaced by finance and administrative paper pushing jobs where human interaction is drastically reduced and their worlds revolve around rules, regulations, and impersonal dogma, has created tens of millions of depressed, anxious, neurotic people seeking something to make their pitiful lives worthwhile. The most meaningless administrative jobs steadily increase and are rewarded more generously, while the hardest workers struggle to put food on the table. Industrialization and specialization may be efficient from a corporate profit standpoint, but it has been dehumanizing from a psychological standpoint.
The Enlightenment brought about a transformation of a world built upon religion, superstition, and small communities into a world built on science, reason, and industrialization. The fear and discomfort, once inflicted by the clergy and nobility, with the dread of judgement day, transformed into a false hope of a scientific created nirvana. As the centuries have progressed the social connectedness of humans has deteriorated, with isolation and lack of social relationships leading to anxiety, depression, and loss of purpose.
Humans used to depend on each other and live for each other, but are now relegated to being nameless, faceless automatons among the masses. Half the workers in America find their jobs meaningless. A 2013 Gallup World Poll found that 63% of workers sleepwalk through their jobs, while another 24% are disengaged, actively demoralizing, and demotivating their coworkers. Only 13% love what they do. Most people just feel like a cog in the machine, as Desmet contemplates.
“The worker became, as they say, a cog in the industrial machine, lubricated only by the thought of wages due. Labor changed from a cumbersome but inherently meaningful existential task into a disembodied utilitarian necessity.” ― Mattias Desmet, The Psychology of Totalitarianism
As work became nothing more than a means to earn wages, in order to consume and amuse themselves, the rise of mass media has further contributed to the decline in sincere social connections, as TV and the internet have further isolated millions and allowed those constituting the invisible government to propagandize whatever narrative suits their malevolent purposes.
Those in power don’t want neighbors congregating, mates gathering in pubs, joyous festivals of friends, or anyone sitting around kitchen tables figuring out how they’ve been screwed over by those they elect to represent their interests. Their plans depend on a populace living in constant fear of something, or they might inadvertently turn their attention to their looting and pillaging of the world’s wealth. Fear is the basis for the mass formation psychosis currently consuming the world.
Decades of psychological deterioration of the masses due to their pointless occupations, meaningless lives, mass media and government school indoctrination, and feelings of purposelessness, despair, and anxiety set the foundation for the onset of this covid driven mass formation psychosis. The free-floating anxiety infecting hundreds of millions around the globe was seeking a conduit to channel their fears and fantasizing about becoming part of a crusade for the greater good.
All that was needed was a virus with a scary name, a billion-dollar marketing campaign, a narrative spun by a well-compensated media, corrupt politicians and Deep State actors seeking to depose a president, and a plethora of unethical “experts” willing to sell their souls to Big Pharma. Once the covid narrative was connected to their free-floating anxiety a global swindle was born.
“Free-floating anxiety is the most painful psychological phenomenon someone can experience. It’s extremely painful. It leads up to panic attacks, to all kinds of extremely painful psychological experiences. What people want in this situation is something to connect their anxiety to. They’re looking for an explanation for the anxiety. And now, if this free-floating anxiety is highly present in a population, and the media provide a narrative, which indicates an object of anxiety, and at the same time, describe a strategy to deal with this object of anxiety, then all the anxiety connects to this object and people are willing to follow the strategy to deal with this object, no matter what the cost is. That is what happens in the beginning of mass formation.” ― Mattias Desmet – The Psychology of Totalitarianism
Fear and anxiety are the lifeblood of a mass hysteria event. An already psychologically damaged populace was primed to react insanely to an entirely overblown “crisis”, spurred on by bad actors who sought riches, notoriety, acclaim, and the ability to impose authoritarian measures on the masses as proof of their power and supremacy. This unjustified fear about a flu virus has resulted in far greater problems which should really be feared. The onset of this psychological tsunami of fear has resulted in the rise of a dictatorial state, with presidents, governors, mayors, and lower-level tin pot totalitarians issuing decrees, mandates, and commands with the threat of imprisonment, loss of jobs, fines, or beatings as the immediate consequence for not obeying.
This absurd terrified reaction by the masses has destroyed millions of small businesses; severed the bonds between family, friends, and neighbors; wrecked our economy; handed unlimited power to corrupt malicious politicians; provoked societal chaos; empowered deviants to gain cultural traction; destroyed the health of millions through the collapse of immune systems; and will trigger both civil and global warfare in the immediate future.
The truth is mental health has been declining for decades, as meaningless jobs, government school indoctrination and dumbing down of the populace, technology creating generations of socially awkward shut-ins, cultural decay, corporatism, and the ineptitude and corruption of political leadership, have created an atmosphere of hopelessness and angst. Depression, anxiety, suicides, drug addiction, and a slew of psychological disorders infected the world before this virus ever appeared.
Over 13% of adults take anti-depressants, with almost 25% of women over 60. The results are similar for Europe. A general malaise had settled across the world as we entered 2020. The latent fear and anxiety in society, combined with little knowledge of viruses and inadequate critical thinking skills, created a perfect storm of social panic and a willingness to believe whatever they were told by people who proclaimed to know the answers and pretended to be experts. The covid cause provided the fearful with meaning in their otherwise woeful lives.
The covid narrative gave frightened people purpose to their existence. They became mentally intoxicated they were part of an army, fighting to defeat this evil virus for the greater good of humanity. Once this belief took hold, the central mechanism of mass formation was firmly in control, and they would believe whatever they were instructed to believe. They became myopically focused on their imminent deaths, unless they masked, social distanced, locked down, and obeyed every dictate of their covidian savior – Saint Anthony Fauci, a petty life-long government bureaucrat playing out his totalitarian Napoleon complex fantasies, while reaping Big Pharma riches and Big Media accolades.
Once the covidian cult was formed, it no longer mattered whether the narrative was blatantly wrong. It didn’t matter that masks didn’t work, social distancing was a farce, lockdowns were worthless, ivermectin worked, ventilators and Remdesivir killed people, or the survival rate for anyone under 70 years old was 99.9%. It wasn’t about facts and reason. The covidian cult had a purpose and they didn’t want to go back to their wretched pointless lives. Desmet describes this process of mass formation psychosis.
“This process yields a psychological gain. Firstly, the anxiety that previously roamed through society as a tenebrous fog is now linked to a specific cause and can be mentally controlled via the strategy put forward in the story. Secondly, through a common struggle with “the enemy,” the disintegrating society regains its coherence, energy, and rudimentary meaning. For this reason, the fight against the object of anxiety then becomes a mission, laden with pathos and group heroism. Thirdly, in this fight all latent brewing frustration and aggression is taken out, especially on the group that refuses to go along with the story and the mass formation. This brings an enormous release and satisfaction to the masses, which they will not let go of easily.” ― Mattias Desmet – The Psychology of Totalitarianism
Desmet believes the masses and the leaders they choose to follow are spellbound by the ideologically produced storyline, both under a form of hypnosis which is exceedingly difficult to interrupt. The hypnosis is deepened and fostered by the relentless mass media propaganda spewed across the airwaves and internet by organizations benefiting from the panic and fear.
The Deep State corporatocracy which has replaced our Constitutional Republic takes advantage of every fabricated “crisis” by expanding their wealth, power, and control over a populace which has been indoctrinated to believe the lies, misinformation, and propaganda pronounced by the overlords they are told to worship and obey. I think Desmet accurately assess the percentage of people enthralled by the narrative and completely under the spell of the false plot. Approximately 30% of people are completely hypnotized, with 40% to 60% not hypnotized but choosing to go along with the crowd, and a minority of 10% to 30% who resist the narrative and actively push back.
Considering only 30% of the adult population didn’t let themselves be injected with the untested, experimental, Big Pharma enriching gene therapy, which was guaranteed to keep you from catching covid according to Fauci, Walensky, Biden and numerous other “experts”, it seems like Desmet’s estimates are pretty accurate. Only 10% have been vocal dissenters. These were the people fired from their jobs, censored on social media, and canceled by friends and family. The mass formation A team were the 30% posting selfies of themselves with masks, shields, vaccine cards, and any other virtue signaling BS showing they were part of the cult, saving the world from this evil virus.
They were also the Karens berating the unmasked, screaming at people closer than six feet, turning in neighbors for breaking the rules, and wishing death upon all the unvaxxed. The cowardice of middle 40% has been the most disappointing aspect of this overhyped flu faux pandemic, as they dutifully submitted to the whims of the cultists – wearing their masks, locking down, avoiding human contact, obeying the totalitarian dictates of politicians, believing absurdities spouted by blustering bureaucrats, complying with un-Constitutional mandates, and sheepishly lining up for jabs that didn’t keep them from catching covid, spreading covid, being hospitalized with covid, or dying from covid. These sheepish followers are the pitiful descendants of the German prison guards who claimed they were only following orders during WWII.
In Part 2 of this article I will attempt to relate this mass formation psychosis phenomenon to the waning years of this Fourth Turning, and how they will intertwine and impact the final outcome of this crisis.

It was a very strong sales pitch.

Aggresive unilateral marketing on a world unified scale.
“We don’t know what is killing all these people,

Give it up, he doesn’t care and won’t look at it.
I sent an an email to the Ethical Skeptic last week to thank him for his efforts, courage and diligence. He answered and was appreciative. I wished I knew who he was, but I understand his choice to remain anonymous.
To me, the use of qualifier “Non-Covid” already shows the author (partially) accepted the framing put up by TPTB… from that chosen position, any fight is unwinnable.
He has years of work and data exposing COVID and the faux treatment often as the lone or nearly lone voice. His work is extensive. He is exceedingly detailed and specific. Before you dismiss his distinctions non-Covid and COVID, understand few people have compiled more statistical analysis exposing the COVID lies than he has. And he was fairly early with his reservations and exposure of the errors.
You didn’t get my point.
To meaningfully use a category “non-Covid”, one would need to have numbers showing Covid and non-Covid cases/deaths/whatever – and how where those numbers compiled, specifically what was the criteria to put a count in the Covid or non-Covid pile?
Can Ethical Skeptic verify or validate those criteria? No, as n0body can, as information is deliberately withheld (to state it in a kind way.)
Approx. 500,000 excess deaths……
….and counting.

You fight just for the sake of it
You know what hurts the most
You might have once been faking it
But now it cuts too close
Winning the war
And losing every battle
You close the door
On happy ever after
We should have stopped it long ago
When there was love still
But we would give in to ego
And never stop until
Winning the war
And losing every battle
You close the door
On happy ever after
I know, you know
Winning the war
Is not winning at all
I know, you know
Winning the war
Is not winning at all
Winning the war
And losing every battle
You close the door
On happy ever after

So tired of humanity’s gatekeepers choosing everything for us. This may be their best work, but no one who only heard radio back then never heard this. Everything that starves the gatekeepers – all of them – not just in the arts, but markets, etc., benefits us. The state is the worst gatekeeper of all.

This isn’t bad, either:
If they didn’t know it would not stop infection or transmission how do they know there won’t be any long term side-effects … This logic escapes the 70% entirely.
INOCULATE THE DOCTORS
Inoculate for small-pox
Inoculate for mumps;
Inoculate for typhoid
For colds and nervous slumps;
Inoculate with cow pus
And germs of every brand
Inoculate with monkey glands
To make us young again.
But one fine day the laity
Will move in self-defence
To inoculate the doctors
With a little common sense.
—by a medical student, Winnipeg, Canada
They apparently did know it was harmful, but either didn’t care because of greed or because they literally want to kill people.
it was/is the latter~!!!!!
It’s not science, but scientism that they spew forth.
Aggressive unilateral marketing completely missed the mark on the continent of Africa..

” completely missed the mark on the continent of Africa..”
Huh. the sickle cell thingy that confers malaria immunity must be beneficial against the aerial spraying that occurred there. Too.
I am not sure threats and coercion can be called “marketing.” I am sure that it does not qualify as good governance.
local news stations have never even flinched, reporting recently on some new kraken variant, the newest monster at the door. local “health systems” still buy airtime on radio stations touting the safety/efficacy of the shots.
the saddest/most frustrating group to deal with through all of this has been the elderly in my life. they are/have been thoroughly terrorized and terrified.
they completely believe the media, and never ever even come close to even stumbling upon an opposing view in their reading/viewing. the ones close to me will politely listen to my objections (which i try to keep short so as to not overwhelm), but in the end they disregard my comments, and absolutely never consider reading any sources i suggest.
not sure exactly what’s up with this older generation i’m dealing with. to my mind it’s like a Cronkite Syndrome: they still trust media and gov, and sadly, that makes them suckers.
it’s been a long game, and the perps won a big portion of our society.
The grief I took in the initial covid amused me to no end. Everyone said it was real and more deadly than the black plague of the Middle Ages. I went to a big box hardware store to load up on cleaning supplies wearing a mandatory mask. In the store I noticed others not wearing their masks correctly, I followed suit. When I got to the checkout they informed me to put the mask on, would not check me out. They had to restock the whole cart. I went to the grocery store and got the supplies maskless, what a waste of productivity. It was all about power and control, become ungovernable!
CZ elderly in many cases still swallow what ever the government & media plus “MY DOCTOR” tells me to do !
I’m 68 and grew up within a household and school system that taught to question everything and how to think and work independently. Never was I instructed what to think .
My wife’s sister who was 10 years older never questioned her doctors and her husband was of the same ilk . They both died prematurely due to their dietary lifestyle one from diabetes due to diet and morbid obesity and the other from bladder cancer from a ridiculously high fat diet , he ate a pound of bacon every Saturday & Sunday ! Both were always seen with their SUPER BIG GULP soda cups everywhere they went .
Had they been alive for Covid they would have ran out and got vaxxed boosted and would join the vaxx Nazi group dropping like flies !
The fear to take responsibility for yourself is rampant in our society hence the BARRAGE OF BOOGEYMEN to control the herd of lemmings assuring that a sufficient number go off the cliff to their peril!
Just judge the distance not the noise they’re coming for us eventually !
Hope your prepared on your hill !
Forget me not
Lemmings never leap to their deaths willingly. This is another hoax. The films we’ve all seen are fabricated; they were driven off those cliffs by men.
Why?
To make the point that overpopulation is a frightening reality when in fact, this world could handle far more souls if folks worked in cooperation with one another.
Matthew 8:32
“And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.”
Quite simple:
You discovered, just like me, how unbelievably wide-spread and deep the fear of death is, in the vast majority of [Western] people today.
Connected to increasing secularism, do you think?
Bingo!
Yes, Simi, we have turned into a pagan nation, no longer a Christian one as they have pushed God out of everything! Anonymous, I have used the term lemmings when this whole thing started as it is an accurate description of what we have been seeing. Can look at it this way, they are destroying mostly the left’s gene pool, they are destroying their own voter block, hence the “steal the vote” will be even worse than ever going forward!!
Read some history, Susan. The pagans built civilizations that lasted for thousands of years, Those in power now aren’t pagans (who allowed any type of god worship). They insist on their own imaginary authoritarian views as the one true way, just as christians do. Ever notices that god has always supported the winning side in any war? Not surprising, since the bible records that the Hebrews got their start by killing and kicking out the inhabitant of the land they say their god promised them.
Also interesting that almost all of the Christian rituals derived from pagan sources. It seems to me that invoking “Satanist” labels to denigrate ideological opponents or attaching all of the troubles of the world to Jews amounts to a form of identity politics and also reveals a disrespect for the value of the individual….but I could be wrong. In any case, thanks to the author for a thought provoking read.
Everyone by nature has a deep fear of death, or losing all that one hold’s dear. Westerners are no different in that regard.
You mean nobody has ever identified a value higher than themselves, allowing them to moderate their fear of death?
This has played out in my family from oldest to youngest vis-a-vie taking the shot’s, yes the older took multiples.
Not a big surprise we are considered crackpots by the sheep. I have quit arguing and trying to provide evidence. I just laugh at them now. Literally every person we know that has said “oh, I better get my Covid booster” comes down with Covid for usually their second or third time about two weeks after. Just like clockwork. We now even plan around their upcoming illnesses.
The best for me was one who trotted out the BS of how it would have been much worse without the vax.
My son is a very bright young man working on his Masters in biology and chemistry. I begged and pleaded with him not to get the shot. At one point I made a desperate threat. We did not speak for almost two years, he was my best friend. We are talking again, and I try to enjoy every moment and shine as much of the Light of Christ into his life that I can. But I know that I will never change his mind about this, it’s not an intellectual problem. Him and his wife have been consistently ill with various minor ailments since being jabbed. They can’t even begin to imagine why. Love, unfortunately, is not always the answer. But to the degree that we able and allowed, we must continue to love these people, and live peaceably with them. That is my conclusion. It helps somewhat, as i deal with present and impending losses.
They will hardly every see their error, or admit it for that fact. It will always be something else, just like the “suddenlies” we have been seeing, refusing to link anything to the jab. I have also argued with my mom, she almost died from it and I believe she thinks it was something not related even though I told her it was related to the jab she took. It seems, if anyone else can comment on this if they too have noticed, the people who took the jab, their thought processes are completely different from before??? I also read and agree, like you said Gods Tom Cullen, we can and must try to bring Gods love to them and live peacefully with them but our relationship will never be as good as it was before, I have noticed this with my mom as well as some other people.
My mom is the same, she is in her 70s and thinks that I have been deceived when I tell her about how dangerous the jab is and that she is one who is deceived.
Almost all the millennials I know took it unquestioning. The ones that didn’t (small group) span generations.
The Covid tyranny, and why some of us stood up to it
“One argument which has gained traction is the Belgian psychologist Mattias Desmet’s theory of ‘Mass Formation Psychosis’. He suggests that what distinguishes previous instances of totalitarianism from the kind we have been experiencing is that it is ‘technocratic totalitarianism’. That label may truly reflect the methods that have been used (through digital technology and the rise in power of selected so-called ‘scientific experts’) but in many ways it is just another instance of the totalitarian impulse which existed even before the 20th century – see Roger Scruton’s essay The Totalitarian Temptation, which is much deeper than Desmet’s theory. The evil temptation to submerge human individuality and freedom into a top-down controlled collective, with the complicity of many of the populace, has a long and nasty history.”
Another article brushing away and ignoring the 4 requirements that Desmet has identified – much less asking why/how those 4 reqs were achieved.
It’s just too painful to look in the mirror for those authors (including CJ Hopkins.)
Not everyone thinks Desmet is the cat’s meow. Psychologists in general are full of shit.
So go ahead and argue which of his identified requirements are wrong.
There certainly was a set up for a perfect storm. Dr Peter Breggins has an alternative view on mass formation. He criticizes Desmet for blaming the victim and letting the perpetrators, governments, media and pharma off scott free. I haven’t read the book so you would know if Desmet let the perps off, while blaming us, the victims.

Personally, I feel like there is plenty of blame to go around but most of it should be put on the backs of the so called “elites” which I prefer to call blood sucking parasites.
And, it was time. The 80 years had passed and we had gone full circle.
I address that in part 2.
I’d better see the phrase “cognitive dissonance” in there somewhere!
;o)
Who is sharing this article:
Nice find. I follow him, too, but can’t see every tweet everyone I follow that comes out even though I follow less than 200 people. That tweet is only 28 minutes old with over 3000 views already. That’s going to bring some more newbies here.
Yes that is good. Recently, since people were complaining about not seeing tweets, Elon said to use Twitter lists. I had lists back in about pre 2018 or so but then they seemed to crackdown on lists too. Maybe Elon is saying the shadowbanning is out of his control for now and that lists will work.
Hey Ed, what about that charity you’re on with Malone? Did you know Breggin is the other one being sued by him- saw your interview with with Ruby (the other one being sued by Malone for 25 million). That was a gotcha wasn’t it?
WHY so much attention on the “elites”? For over half a century the “love generation” has been funding the drug cartels with your every day Americans’ love of narcotics. Finally that lucrative drug trade gave way to murderous narco states to our south, a destabilized hemisphere, and a border crisis no wall can fix. Pointing fingers at the so called elite boogie men is a convenient scapegoat for a population unwilling to give up their narcotics.
More bullshit.
[Desmet] Identifying the problem to be mainly bottom-up, straw-manned into “letting the perpetrators off scot-free.”
Excellent work, Admin. Looking forward to part II.
Over 13% of adults take anti-depressants, with almost 25% of women over 60.
In my neighborhood, I have at least two such women who live directly across the street from each other. They both have the “list of platitudes” yard signs about science, peace, love, etc. Probably no more hateful people in the world than these two harpies.
When everything goes tits-up, and these people are no longer able to obtain the psychotropic concoctions that keep them from setting themselves on fire and running down the street…we are in for one hell of show.
Well, yes, that’s one of many problems people will encounter. I think people will still be able to get illegal street drugs, though.
One kind of drug addiction you never hear about is benzodiazapemes. Think Valium, Atavan, Xanax, there are over 20 different kinds of benzos. If you take them daily for more than a few weeks you have a high risk to become addicted and cannot stop taking them cold turkey without withdrawal reactions, some are severe and include seizures. Even if you withdraw very slowly by cutting down slightly week by week withdrawal is miserable.
Approximately 30 million people take benzos.
Yes. You have the fast half life aka Ativan, and the slow half life aka Klonopin. The former is used to wean alcohol cold turkey withdrawals. Boots on the ground says Ativan is in short supply. Benzos sound scary.
PS. My mom’s doctor prescribed her Ativan. I was mortified and pulled up the info. Mom chose not to take it. TG. Maybe she’ll resist the latest up to date poke.
My mother in law is going through this as we speak. Ended up in the ER yesterday with a huge panic attack, a month after cutting back by 25% the med she was one.
It’s tough. And you have to be firmly committed to be able to get through withdrawal. A functional medicine psychiatrist can be helpful, if you can find one.
My takeaway? Folks are not meant to stop taking these psychotropic drugs … period.
When everything goes tits-up, and these people are no longer able to obtain the psychotropic concoctions that keep them from setting themselves on fire and running down the street…we are in for one hell of show.
+1000.
Long popcorn.
Knowing how to handle zombies is/will be crucial. Movies and TV shows have provided excellent “how-to” instructions.
Katanas
games too in that respect, better have the never ending ammo to go with the various weapons gear needed lol
I recall reading an article soon after those virtue signaling signs began appearing wherein the author took each platitude and showed its source … the ‘love is love’ platitude comes from NAMBLA … the North American man-boy love association that seeks to have the age of ‘consent’ for sexual purposes reduced to about 10 years old … it’s basically an ‘organization’ of pederasts and/or pedophiles …
I confronted several of my virtuous neighbors with that information … they were in denial that it could mean that … and so the wheel turns …
Excellent write up on the 4th Turning interpretation, thank you. Looking forward to the next one.
A network of reliable, local friends is a key to tackling what’s forthcoming. For example: I am pureblooded, and yet have a “vaccine,” card. I befriended a local MD and swapped an AR, 1000 5.56, plus unlimited range training for the card (linked to my driver’s license).
No qualms, nor problems. Am writing from Hachinohe, Japan, doing a job that I love.
Don’t get too excited that you ” just said no” to the clot shot and now folks know you were right all along. No, No, No……this is the never ending nightmare and the vax question will soon be a shackle around your ankles. The WHO now has a diagnosis code for the UNVAXXED. Doctors will be “incentivized” to list if you are not vaxxed with this code. Eventually they will required REASON on your chart for not being vaxxed. You could be declared mentally ill for refusing and with that you could find yourself a ward of the state with little or no rights.
If there is no end to Covid, there will be no end to the push for the clot shot, and yes, the WHO code is specific to the Covid vaccine. This is not over by a long shot.
I still wonder why most of the mental hospitals were emptied out across the country. Perhaps they plan to refill them with the unvaxxed. Something to ponder.
I believe it was under Jimmy Carter they decided to close them. However, can you imagine how bad these places must have been? Run by the states, probably not enough funds and people were interred against their will for various reasons.
Here is a quote from a short timeline, probably as close to the truth as you can get these days. This was when Reagan was Governor but we all know what happens in CA spreads to other states.
https://www.kqed.org/news/11209729/did-the-emptying-of-mental-hospitals-contribute-to-homelessness-here
It’s a no win situation. Many mentally ill people refuse help and just self-medicate with street drugs. I know this from experience in my own family. But the state and Federal governments do a terrible job when they get involved.
I will add that this family member was still sharp enough to refuse the shot. Go figure.
MC- Plans on this Earthly plane can span out over 125-150 years and it has been a long time since Albert Pike sent the famous letter to Mezzini outlining the three world wars. If there will be mental hospitals needed for a purpose such as this, they would empty them far in advance and it was the intention of TPTB to start this final phase 23 years ago. They were frustrated that they were 20 years behind but they never waiver from the goal.
I am not on the bandwagon to become an electronic f’n device pod person for the Borg. I also don’t want to spend my days roaming the halls of the nut ward. This is why we need to discuss this scenario here, commies have formulas and they stick to what they know is effective…..period.
Mary- Any laws from 40 or 50 years ago don’t mean jack to the occupied commie government in the district of criminals in the present. There could be a thousand laws for patient rights on the books, it means nothing. Ask the Canadians.
Most of those buildings were old and probably were torn down. If you looked at the timeline they started building them in the mid-1800’s
Mary- According to stats from 2020, there are 12,275 facilities that are functional in the US. Sounds like a lot to me.
Is this the message you were talking about in part 2? You do realize those are all full right now. I didn’t say all of them are gone. My daughter did a week of clinicals for nursing school in one in KS in 2019. They would never hold all of the resisters even if they let all the crazy people go. That doesn’t mean they would not use other empty facilities. However, I don’t believe that most of the resisters will go quietly if it comes to that. It will be expensive. Most of us are not stupid, even if we don’t have college degrees.
FWIW, having a college degree does not in any way correlate with lack of stupidity, especially not today where a large percentage of college graduates are functionally illiterate…just saying.
They were emptied out in the ’60s due to the ACLU lawsuits about locking up folks and then putting them on meds without their consent … thus was born the likes of SEA and PDX and LA and NYC and CHI and numerous blue cities with enormous numbers of homeless folks.
Hahaha. The point is, the entire shit-show operates by psychological shenanigans. Fear. The comment reflects this. What “chart”? I don’t even have a designated “doctor”… and avoid any hospital for reasons that by now have become all too obvious. What is regarded as “healthcare” is little more than pushers (doctors) suggesting that you visit the drug dealer (pharmacy) of your choice to obtain a man-made “medicinal” concoction to treat the symptom… or a surgeon to “excorcise the demon” by removing a body part, or otherwise repair a hip, knee, etc. so that one can sustain mobility even though one is sedentary. It’s commerce; it’s all about the shekels. As to becoming a ward of the state, if you are a citizen, taxpayer, resident, or any other term used to classify you as anything other than the divine being that you are, then you by definition already are. Man cannot give another man a right. “Declared” by whom? What gives anyone the authority to “declare” anything with regard to you? Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. Cheers.
arrow- I myself do not go to doctors or hospitals. I am well aware of the medical establishment and the racket it has become. People do need medical attention due to falls, auto accidents, assaults and numerous other reasons. There are reasons a pureblood would need medical assistance, only to be listed as a unvaxxed.
What we really need is a underground/black market system to treat people outside of the AMA controlled death factories. You may want to study up on commie regimes who have put those who dissent in mental hospitals.
I too do not have a “designated” doctor or a chart and my MIB has very, very few entries for my lifetime. Scoff if you will sir, there are roadblocks ahead and this is not over.
Eye of the hurricane.
I am a nurse who refused the jab, still working thankfully, but with those reports of docs asking that question if you are jabbed or not, will have to rethink any MD visits I have coming up. I work for the gov as a nurse in a prison and our supplies are dwindling, we have run out of meds a time or two recently because of funding issues, wonder how soon these will become even worse? I would hate to be declared a ward of the state as you will rot and die in your prison/room just like the J6 people, we will become just like them.
Wasn’t really scoffing BL. We all make decisions daily. I am well aware of the persecutions. Hell, in years past they put “problems” in mental institutions here. It’s good to plan ahead… and there’s a new day-a-coming. Most times I simply choose not to participate. Never was locked-down. The only masks I have are in the shop. I’ve been a dissenter for 63 years. Value solitude and you achieve greater clarity. I’m not anti-social; I’m anti-socialist, which is where group-think mentality leads… and there’s always a way around a roadblock.
“If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.”
Supplies – check.
Food – check
Water – check
First aid supplies – check
Ammunition -check
Fuel – check
Party on!
arrow- Good list. I evade roadblocks quite well myself and never locked down.
I remember my good physician who was in his early-’70s when I encountered him … just as I was getting onto medicare … and he told me that the first 2 things to happen when Obamacare took effect were (1) the big hospital chains bought up every private medical practice they could find; (2) large amounts of money were taken out of medicare and put into providing funds for the shortfalls that were known that Obamacare would entail … including the mandates to provide for all the illegals at US Citizen and Taxpayer expense.
I cannot recall the last time I saw an MD that was in private practice … not in the past 10+ years, at least.
Authority or not, ability to control comes from the barrel of a gun. That’s why anyone concerned with liberty needs several.
Harry- We are armed to the teeth in Merika. Yet they locked us down and killed 50% of small business and commerce. They have also tricked millions into death by needle. Where were the guns in that scenario? What will trigger armed dissent Harry? Sending armed troops to your neighborhood? I can tell you my neighbors will hide under the bed and soil their pants and call for their mommy.
Different down in the country but most Americans live in cities, I wonder what would push the hordes to a organic uprising?
That’s why they are trying to kill them off first. Most will just sleep 24/7 until they are taken away in the middle of the night, then it’s too late, guns still in the safe.
Looks as if those in cities are in for some big problems. But that was their choice.
Be careful of those armed troops — especially US Army and Marines … what with all of the illegals in both promised US Citizenship plus the blacks who’ve been taught to hate YT — they’ll have no compunction about moving into White suburbia and mowing US down …
Excellent points arrow !
Many people in our pseudo society have been deceived.
It is as if they are possessed.
Who could be behind such a thing?
What force could defeat the deceiver?
The plandemic and covid was just a small part of the plan. The real issue is everything they tell us is a lie to exert more of their sick totalitarian control.
House insurance forced on debtless houses by vote of debtors in associations has doubled in price this year and started compouding…auto insurance on value slaverys and sabotage..
But in the end, they brought it upon themselves…
The “mass formation psychosis” in ww2 was on the Allied side, not the German. The Germans were just looking after their rightful interests, the Allied public were being hyped up by sheer invented propaganda (the holocaust) in order to get them to commit to a war they didn’t want to be in, against people they considered their cousins.
And if you doubt the above consider the pattern of “The Gulf of Tonkin” incident, Saddam’s “Weapons of mass destruction” & his “babies thrown from their hospital beds onto the ground”, Syria’s “chemical weapons attacks on its own people” and many other such cases. They lie to get the Western public to support wars. They ALWAYS have.
Congratulations, you win the comment thread by supporting a country that declared war on America!
And just which country was that? Not Germany … not Vietnam … not Iraq … not Syria …
Please, enlighten US …
Personally, I was baffled at how covid maintained public awareness for so long. I was bored of the pandemic after two weeks. I didn’t think people had the attention span to keep it going past a few weeks.
T.V.
That explains it. I haven’t had cable in over 15 years.
Being afraid to die keeps your attention for quite a while…
Being ‘made to be afraid’ keeps your attention even longer … and that’s what all the propaganda was for …
The UK even admitted that right from the start they engaged the propaganda machinery of the biggest and best in the UK to provide that so that the people would submit … our own government still hasn’t really admitted to that — that’s how much they care about US.
One of the lessons of Covid … at least, for me … is that Tyranny is not ‘imposed from the Top, down’. My own experiences lead me to believe that Tyranny is something which is demanded from ‘the Bottom, up’.
Winner, winner!
Beagle- As long as docs/healthcare workers/police and other LE tow the elites line, there is little hope. You are right Our enemy is our own stupid, scared to lose that paycheck, common goy in our communities. Cut that off and work your way to the top to cut off the head of the snake. There are an awful lot of jooish doctors and administrative medical managers who will follow orders to the letter. They run most of all healthcare now, freemasonry runs the LE’s and judges which is jooish at the core. What to do at this point?
No one knows how it ends, but it is always best to be prepared for any outcome.
Headed out to plow snow in the dark while the world sleeps.
There’s a metaphor in there somewhere.
Excellent appraisal, as always. May my grandchildren refer to your writings one day the way we talk about Mackay.
“No one knows how it ends”?
Anyone with a a bible does.
It’s like a never-ending real life Twilight Zone episode.
How sad for the fear possessed mass deluded zombies that cling to their meaningless lives with every life breath taken deathly terrified of the unknown that awaits them at their eventual demise.
I like that sentiment. I have never feared death and now that I am old I find I still don’t fear it.
Thanks for your two comments.
Everyday now with a peace that passes understanding can start the day with “Your will be done”, not as a disciple but as a son of God (John 1:12).
I remember your blog post from years ago about snow plowing, about getting better at it with experience, the precision involved, the contentment of a job well done and the joys of doing it for an elderly person who cannot shovel any more as a good deed. At least that’s what I remember. I loved that one. There are metaphors in that for sure.
A pint of Jack Daniel’s Honey Bourbon is an appropriate potable for that occasion. Been there. Done that. Got the hat! (Kubota)
Thank you Admin. So looking forward to part two. Why aren’t we blinded? I still ask that question. Thanks again
There is another group of people, myself included, who believe that Covid is a hoax and that the virus doesn’t exist. You can imagine what kind of reaction that gets from people. Of course when you ask them for proof of this virus, or you ask them for studies that prove that this virus was isolated in a lab, they just give you a dirty look and throw out the usual insults like calling you a conspiracy theorist or science denier. No proof is needed by the Covid Cult. The government and the media said it was real so it must be real.
I ask the following. If the virus has been isolated and “purified” why was it not used to create a vaccine?
I’m with you. Accepting the pseudo-scientific babble that is virus theory and speaking in their vernacular only lends credibility to the narrative with the normies.
bUt yOu Can SeE ViRUseS iN a mICroScOpE!!!
This leads to the whole correlation doesn’t equal causation thing. I’m partial to Dr. Cowan’s theory that while ‘viruses’ can be observed in the setting of an illness, they are not actually causing the illness, but are actually messengers created by cells experiencing an acute event (such as toxicity) that signal other parts of the body or other bodies in the area to also perform some biological cleanup.
Mass hysteria works on both sides of the aisle.
Jon Rappoport has been publicizing that argument for years … especially in this age of the FauciFlu …
Apparently even many MDs don’t really buy the theory of viruses — their view is that ‘virus’ is merely another word for ‘gremlin’ — some unknown, unnamed thing that they use to scare US …
Mass hysteria renamed. Ya got to love it.
I believe the addiction to ‘tech’ whether I-phone or computer has changed he way humans perceive and process information. The rapid and non-stop tweets and texts processed and then thrown into the ‘mental shredder’ as the next tweet or text arrives. Helps explain the lack of critical thinking skills, how people’s view of the workplace has changed and overall social interaction or lack of any patience.
So those under this addiction , like most any addiction don’t give much thought to it.
Hold that thoughtI just got a text brb
Thanks for the eye opening post Jim.
The lyrics in this song always stuck with me. Note it’s from 1992
Lyrics
Doctor Doctor, what is wrong with me
This supermarket life is getting long
What is the heart life of a colour TV
What is the shelf life of a teenage queen
Ooh western woman
Ooh western girl
News hound sniffs the air
When Jessica Hahn goes down
He latches on to that symbol of detachment
Attracted by the peeling away of feeling
The celebrity of the abused shell, the belle
Ooh western woman
Ooh western girl
Ooh western woman
Ooh western girl
And the children on Melrose
Strut their stuff
Is absolute zero cold enough
And out in the valley, warm and clean
The little ones sit by their TV screens
No thoughts to think
No tears to cry
All sucked dry
Down to the very last breath
Bartender what is wrong with me?
Why am I so out of breath?
The captain said excuse me ma’am
This species has amused itself to death
Amused itself to death
It has amused itself to death
Amused itself to death
We watched the tragedy unfold
We did as we were told
We bought and sold
It was the greatest show on earth
But then it was over
We ohhed and aahed
We drove our racing cars
We ate our last few jars of caviar
And somewhere out there in the stars
A keen-eyed look-out
Spied a flickering light
Our last hurrah
Our last hurrah
And when they found our shadows
Grouped ’round the TV sets
They ran down every lead
They repeated every test
They checked out all the data on their lists
And then, the alien anthropologists
Admitted they were still perplexed
But on eliminating every other reason
For our sad demise
They logged the only explanation left
This species has amused itself to death
No tears to cry, no feelings left
This species has amused itself to death
Amused itself to death
Amused itself to death
Quote from Oliver Stone’s 1986 war film “Platoon”: Hell is the impossibility of reason.
Excellent description of the the details of Mass Formation Psychosis, Jim!!
But I personally believe it is less than 10% who resist the narrative and actively push back.
And on “The technological ‘advancement’ of our world has led to people leading meaningless lives and working bullshit jobs”:
I would argue it was not directly caused by the technological advancement; instead the latter provided a lever to replace morality with materialism as a [short term] source of happiness/”fulfillment”, by the usual worshippers of the devil.
I think Hell is the constant reminder of all the opportunities in life we had to truly humble ourselves and receive Jesus as Lord that we rejected in lieu of our own futile ways in the midst of our everlasting torment.
FWIW, a ray of sunshine. They’ve lost WSJ.

…man is not a learning animal.
The Trump legacy will be Warp Speed.
‘flash’ is already front-running the legacy media!
It ain’t that big of a leap.
When Curly comes on screen with a board on his shoulder, everyone knows Moe or Larry are getting hit in the head.
Blaming Trump is a fine start but doesn’t absolve Biden, his advisers and Secretaries, Congress (all of it), CDC, NIH, FDA etc, Governors, state legislatures, county commissioners, the media (all of it), employers, judges, cops, lawyers, DOCTORS (almost all), and your aunt Karen.
Most of the 1919 flu deaths were caused by pneumonia
almost certainly caused by masking. The Lying NIH Midget
wrote a paper detailing it.
Probably just a fig-leaf, for later ‘plausible deniability’ of WSJ’s complicity
That’s the 2nd article to recently come out questioning the injections. I don’t have a link but someone on the WSJ editorial board wrote a scathing one within the past couple weeks.
This makes me suspicious. Why now? Most of the MSM is still on board but the damn has sprung a leak.
I think it was T4C who posted a comment about a theory that something like this is in the plans to cause further chaos.
Could be that too many reporters are suddenly dying. WSJ and other media outlets might be realising they were fooled too and are expendable to the elite. Hell hath no fury as a journalist betrayed by his masters.
Magnificent Read!
I liked this a lot.
So you’re a “cynical old bastard” are you Admin? Same here but a proud one at that. All of the important bastards in this world who try to con me into thinking I give a rat’s ass about their opinions and dictates took their best shot at me for 2 years and drew Maggie’s draws. No jabs for this old boy. I trounced them all.
Can’t wait for part 2.
Seems to be part of the scam tribe.
Since ’08 everyone has been afraid of an economic collapse. It hasn’t collapsed because Tptb don’t want it to, too much money to make. The only way to regain power is to collapse the system ourselves. Max out credit cards and pay them off or mortgages, car notes and every other line of credit. It’s the only way bankers will go broke.
“Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.”

One would think that easy access to information would be a great liberator for the masses. That by providing access to truths good and bad, people would be freed of the beast at last. What has happened instead is a great many people now live under their beds. All done in ignorance in order to avoid cognitive dissonance
Another great, but sobering essay, thank your all you do Jim.

Just imagine if stupid fuck Americans had as much passion to save this country as they do over a football game. Entertainment via sports is one thing, obsession is a whole different deal. I have found the majority of sports followers are dumb fat asses that are clueless with what is going on around them, yet they know what their favorite player is doing.
“I feel like I’m in a Twilight Zone episode, waiting for the surprise ending, as I continue to go through the motions of life, getting up at the same time every morning, driving the same route to work, doing the same job, going grocery shopping, doing laundry, reading, writing, and waiting for the bottom to drop out. I think I know what is going to happen, but I don’t, and neither does anyone else, no matter how sure they appear and how well compensated they are for providing “expert” opinions.”
Felt this way since 2008. Family thinks I’m nuts because I lead this double life of “normalcy” and preparing for the Apocalypse all at the same time. Wears on you over the years waiting.
Admin,
Just excellent! Can’t wait for part II.
How you can create this level of clear, thoughtful truth while holding down a full-time job is incredible.
I’d say you are gifted. May God bless and protect you.
Mass formation psychosis writ large with government and the toadies in MSM laid out here.

Funny how we repackage what the Bible says and give man all the credit for their sharp insight & intellect.
It’s called the Great Deception.
“For false messiahs and false prophets will rise up and perform great signs and wonders so as to deceive, if possible, even God’s chosen ones. See, I have warned you about this ahead of time,” (Matthew 24:24-25).
My wife is a Physicians assistant. She’s been in health care for 45 years. Over this time, she has come to believe that the words of medical establishment are gospel. She is common sense smart in almost every aspect of her life, until the covid con came along. She is a devoted listener of Dr radio on XM. I have been in emergency medicine for 40 years. She has been literally brainwashed by her blind belief in and devotion to the medical community. She pleaded with me to get the vax, but I steadfastly refused. Fortunately we don’t discuss it any longer. I hate to think about it, but I will likely be the last one standing, unfortunately.
Pickles- I’m baffled by your spouse. Does she believe that all these fit young people are just dying from unexplained reasons/climate change? Please to explain how she views the elevated mortality.
Read every word of both article & comments. Most comprehensive paper ever on TBP. I await the 2nd installment. We have gone from 1776 bondage to 2023 bondage. I’m 80 & beyond blessed to have a wife of 47 years on the same page & both non-church goers who worship our Father & His Son. Been better prepped for last 50 years than all the fear porn & clickbaiters on YT. No TV & damn few friends. Will dump any family or friends in a NY minute who disagrees on vax. Don’t trust doctors, hospitals or wokesters. Traveled the world, been everywhere, seen it all, done it all & don’t give a shit who I embarrass. Live on my own mountain surrounded by national forest & have weapons of mass destruction. Two of four offspring are same mindset. 2023 will be “good times” compared to what’s coming so prep, persevere but much more important is glorify, worship & pray to the only ones who will solve this mess and that is our Father in heaven and His Son Jesus Christ.
Thank You,
Hello Humans Hello Humans, Reeeeeeeeeee, Stay Awesome, We’re Going to test that, Go Away Now, Keep your dick in a vice, See you Tomorrow, God F*ing Speed, God Bless
When someone asks me why I did not get the covid-19 “vax”, which rarely happens anymore, I say research what happened with the swine flu vaccine in 1976. I then add the covid-19 vax is even worse. The ones who remember do not like to hear that…..too bad…..for them. I remember talking heads saying it’s an emergency, so we made sure the covid-19 vax is safe and effective. I was shocked people believed that!!!
When they ask me, I respond, “Because I don’t want to ‘die suddenly”
I just remind them it’s still experimental and not FDA approved.
Another great piece of writing, looking forward to part II.
“I’ve been waiting since 2010 for a financial/economic collapse, but the “powers that be” have been able to create a Potemkin façade…”
I totally agree, I too had a strong believe that we were going to go under financially as a country but the house of cards is still holding on. I never would have imagined that the control is so strong that we are more then 13 years in and we are still waiting.
What is not generally recognised is that the ‘old normal’ was already a mass ‘formational’ reality distortion/displacement. Normalising dissociation by personal & social masking.
It is part of the setting up of a human consciousness in the unfolding event or experience of a physical focus or life.
For most, most of the time, the focus is on surface ‘reality’ or script living – with little if any awareness of script-making – which operates beneath the surface consciousness.
Now we have an intent and attempt to manipulate the script – as in hacking our source-code or sorcery – for it operates backwards – that is the tail seeks to wag the dog. Dogma set in technological & psychological enforcements.
But what is this at root but the original attempt to make a self and a world in our own image – by which to lose a Felt Awareness of being for a mentally mapped predictive programming. The ‘thinking’ that makes a ‘world’ that we ‘see’ by reactions that reinforce beliefs set by a past that persists as a script of masking denial set in defence against exposure – or indeed Disclosure.
This may seem impossible to credit – but look at the shock-installed covid operating system by which a reset of a covert identity in darkness is replicating all the ‘devices and deceits’ by which to not know what we know.
We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, remembered gate
When the last of earth left to discover
Is that which was the beginning;
At the source of the longest river
The voice of the hidden waterfall
And the children in the apple-tree
Not known, because not looked for
But heard, half heard, in the stillness
Between the two waves of the sea.
Quick now, here, now, always–
A condition of complete simplicity
(Costing not less than everything)
And all shall be well and
All manner of things shall be well
When the tongues of flame are in-folded
Into the crowned knot of fire
And the fire and the rose are one.
Little Gidding V, – T.S. Eliot
But if we take a fascination with horror and the addictive allure of polarising conflicts we are asking for unconsciousness by which to follow an invested identity as if at the hand of another.
An interesting compilation of research … and we were lied to about all of these items …
The LRC article is the hook … read the cited article at the end for the full story … and prepare to be angry …
E.g.: – mRNA vaccine ingredients can be transferred from one person to another via skin-to-skin contact, inhalation and via “sexual intercourse,” through bodily fluids. That is to say, vaccine “shedding” can occur via sexual contact, including via exposure to semen.
– mRNA vaccines resulting in “anti-sperm antibodies” – that is to say, antibodies that treat sperm as an “invader”, and damage or kill it – is a known adverse event related to this form of vaccination.
I admit being worried about this “shedding” thing. As an unvaxxed pureblood, I don’t want my body compromised by a vaxxed person just because they sneezed near me or I shook their hand.
Anyone know where we can find a new heart for this boy? Preferably undamaged. Not sure what happened to him. Wyrd.

They don’t know how his heart was destroyed,
but they know for certain it wasn’t the jab……
Disturbing news….
US prisoners force jabbed. Non citizen prisoners exempt. WTF?

I wondered about this.

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such a time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic, and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State. — Joseph Goebbels
Even the Old Commie Franklin D Roosevelt said “The Only Thing We Have to Fear is Fear Itself” – He was Right.
The rise of the administrative state where hard fulfilling jobs (farmers, craftsmen, builders) have been replaced by finance and administrative paper pushing jobs where human interaction is drastically reduced and their worlds revolve around rules, regulations, and impersonal dogma, has created tens of millions of depressed, anxious, neurotic people seeking something to make their pitiful lives worthwhile. The most meaningless administrative jobs steadily increase and are rewarded more generously, while the hardest workers struggle to put food on the table.
Case in point in the video below. If this person had any tangible skills, none were exhibited in her daily “work” day. Free food and drink, meetings that were probably without purpose, and likely a big paycheck.
We now are seeing 10s of thousands being laid off by the tech companies, most of which were jobs that produced little or nothing of value in the first place.
Bahwawa…
I’ve seen several interviews in which Yuval Harari lamented the proliferation of “useless eaters” (his words). He expressed his exasperation at what to do with them and suggested they be kept amused “with video games and drugs” (his words) while he and his NWO/WEF compatriots go on about their business of becoming “gods” (his word). I’ve yet to see a single interviewer or journalist ( a term I use in deference) ask this psychopathic fraud whom he might be useful to.
“Because that when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful, but became vain in their imaginations and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise they became fools”

Worthy of some of the best epiphanies.
Brilliant article…well done.
Speaking of the inability to think for oneself,
in the end the author just HAD to revert to Godwin’s Law.
And that’s all you have to say about the article, Forrest?
I agree with your comment. That is why I followed the link from Lew Rockwell newsletter, where I read the article to this site in order to comment. Since Jews control all major media, Pentagon, White House and Congress, infest every white country where they can open our borders, and we’re cannon fodder for a Greater Israel but not allowed to defend our own borders I find it hard to understand how Nazis are evil but Jews/Zionism are always sweet innocent bystanders. Why reference the holocaust but ignore the HOLODOMER? Why ignore the Palestinian Holocaust? Bill Kristol/911 and “rearranging the Middle East”? Who is the engine behind the Great Reset, continual wars and the destruction of the west? It must be Hitler and the Nazis. Even tho Fauci is a Jew and they now hold all the major offices in every western administration. I say Hitler was right. God rest his soul.
I suggest you see Youtube channel ‘American Intelligence Media’ for info on the Babylonian money cartel that calls themselves ‘Jews’ or ‘Ashkenazi’. and has been controlling world money for at least 4000 years. They have apparently controlled these Great Resets or Turnings throughout history. An excellent talk on King Solomon being part of that cartel and controlling all the gold was removed yesterday after I watched it.
At least 12 down voters don’t have any clue what is going on and what has been going on.
Any more self-congratulatory woke bullshit to share?
Are you have a tantrum because the democrat party identity cult functionally resembles the German nazi party’s identity cult, or because he’s wrong? BTW, he’s not wrong.
