COVID 19 was a mass hysteria reaction.

It was begun deliberately, though. And it succeeded beyond even the wildest dreams of the originators.

These are being engineered now, for political purposes.

Jordan Peterson has called it “induced mass psychosis,” if I remember rightly.

He used that term in connection with the “transitioning” phenomenon.

One of my lifelong friends died in March 2020 because the hospitals and doctors offices put up signs saying ‘don’t come here if you are sick.’ After not feeling well for a week he died from a stroke and heart attack.

I then watched as the masses masked up and even when traveling alone in their cars or outside in the sunshine would be wearing a mask.

Weird but yes, when history looks back Covid will/should be right up there. The mass hysteria whipped up by social media, governments, and big pharma; created a world crushing depression. Bastards.

Yes I said “transitioning” instead of “transgender.”

No mention of Covid 19 or of the current penis chopping craze, nor of global warming etc.

They also left off:

“Global Warming” (preceded by “the new Global Ice Age” and followed by the less quantifiable “Climate Change”.

Also, “Mean Tweeting Orange Man Bad!”

“the masses masked up and even when traveling alone in their cars or outside in the sunshine would be wearing a mask.”

I’m still seeing it occasionally.

Mostly black people for some strange reason......in a grocery store yesterday no more than 20 customers and sure enough, a black lady wearing a mask while shopping ......weird

Mental Floss is comfortably and thoroughly woke.

After World War II sociologists and psychologists had a field day trying to understand the mass hysteria Germans had as they daily went about their business while millions of murders occured all around them.

And how is that sick phenomenon any different than 70 million abortions committed here in the US while American eat, work, play and live out a normal existence?
