The concept of mass formation gives me a number of problems. (Hypnosis is always voluntary and you can never be hypnotized to violate your morals for instance.)
Mass formation psychosis is supposed to lead to a greater sense of community. Viewing everyone—including those who share your belief—as nothing but incarnations of the Bubonic Plague 2.0 can only lead to greater loneliness.
And avoidance of a minor infection, or hypochondria is not much of a life goal. Though some are so shallow and cowardly that they seem okay with that. Though some blah about resentment/envy/quarreling using buzzwords like “equity” and “empowerment” seems to have sunk into the skulls of the brainwashed too.
A lot of the Reset’s useful idiots are having breakdowns. Some committing suicide. After driving or tempting a lot more of us to suicide—or drink—over a year ago. (I should be patient, kind and gentle, but I am tired of dealing with them and happy to avoid them online or off.)
I refuse to humor their hysteria and self-dramatizing at this point. Walking away instead. Another reason I canceled my Facebook account. I suggest you consider doing so too.
A big question more people than me are asking is: Why were so many people willing to live like hermits for so long? Was it really all a fear of death by a viral infection?
Yes, a lot of the same people screaming “Science deniers!” are themselves death deniers. Refusing to come to terms with the inevitability of our mortality. Including—sadly enough—many self-styled Christian writers and preachers.
But maybe the fear was of more than disease or death? Maybe a greater fear no one would admit to, underlay a hidden urge to shun human contact. Fomenting in this engineered mass hysteria in fallow psyches.
Several years ago, I dreamed of becoming a hermit. My urge was not born of piety but cowardice.
Why did I yearn to isolate so much? Before I hit forty, I felt like a failure in every way possible. Indeed, I had done absolutely nothing good or worthwhile.
Decades ago, I had been publicly shamed. Degraded on such a level I frequently wanted to die.
Hating myself and wanting to do humanity a favor I decided to hide away to avoid bothering people with my toxic presence. Scientists told me I was a horrible, not-quite-human menace to my loved ones. They could not cure, only treat me. With damaging, mind altering drugs.
A lot of the staunchest supporters of this mass hysteria were/are single, childless women my age.
They had no real friends. Just other women with families sneering down on them.
They felt compelled to date. Or go through the motions. But they loathed it even if they pretended to be happy about the tawdry, meaningless mating.
My guess is they loved the excuse to quit dating. To confine the catty judgments of others to a computer screen. Even the married women tended to have no real friends.
I didn’t need an excuse. I got fed up with the sham of modern dating years before.
The love of many has grown cold for iniquity abounds.
Way too many churches had become pretentious social clubs. Nobody cared about you. And if you lacked an earthly family and lots of green stuff to plunk in the plate you would be allowed to join. But never accepted as more than a hanger on.
More and more people who want to marry cannot. Too many people of both sexes just want to fornicate. In a godless society, even the innocent minority must pay the price. Life is not just nor fair in this fallen world.
But this obsession with safety may not have been about a virus after all. Love is dangerous. It can hurt like nobody’s business.
Safety first. Quit trying to make friends. Shut your heart off to any of the opposite sex who show an interest.
People you love will die sooner or later. Or betray you.
Don’t love. Stay safe.
This has led me to realize the sin in my life. I’m afraid to admit it even to myself, but I’ve opened my heart and will risk again if the opportunity arrives. Old and tired as I am.
Thanks Rachel. The small remnant that fellowshipped together as they built Noah's ark must have seen a similar global apostasy and strong demonic delusion that you so well describe:- The love of many has grown cold for iniquity abounds.
