7. The Democrats' massive guilt over being white.

8. Gays frightful that the masses will realize their high rate of pedo.

9. Paul Ryan's horrible fright over Trump getting back in the WH.

Trump presidency was mass hysteria for the left with Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) and the vast left wingnut society continues to have Long TDS.

8. The January 6 Hysteria

One January 7, 2021, people across the USA started accusing neighbors, family members, co-workers, acquaintances and anyone they could on social media of having participated in a coup attempt a the US Capitol. As of this writing, the hysteria has been transferred to the US Department of Justice, Federal Courts, and the Federal Investigation Bureau (FIB), which continues to hysterically prosecute innocent Americans.

Scientists are studying one Ray Epps, who has a mysterious immunity from the hysterical accusations.

“What about the sudden transgender movement?”

BINGO. It fits. The actual amount of true transgender cases has blossomed into many more confused teens claiming they are transgender. Same for gays. The number of young people deciding they are now gay is also a form of hysteria, and copycatting, a subset form of hysteria. A lot of it stress related, IMO.

People with a tendency for hysteria are also easily manipulated by propaganda, especially in today’s social networking, computerized world along with daily visual media propaganda. Hysterics are easily brainwashed.

“People with a tendency for hysteria are also easily manipulated by propaganda”

Something I noticed during WuFlu: It seemed that Christians for the most part easily saw the insanity, and they kept a good distance from those who are most easily influenced by Satan. It was like watching a really bad movie.

Trumps walk to the torched St.Johns Church happened in June 2020.

Left out the millions of people who believed Biden was the person to vote for as president.

Yep - especially when the number of girls wanting to be “boys” is increasing at a rate of 1,200% or something.

#1 is the global-warming climate-change-crisis fraud.

In the words of Professor Richard Lindzen of MIT:

“What historians will definitely wonder about in future centuries is how deeply flawed logic, obscured by shrewd and unrelenting propaganda, actually enabled a coalition of powerful special interests to convince nearly everyone in the world that CO2 from human industry was a dangerous, planet-destroying toxin. It will be remembered as the greatest mass delusion in the history of the world - that CO2, the life of plants, was considered for a time to be a deadly poison.”

It should be noted that during the Salem Witch Trials that those women who pled “Guilty” were given jail terms and fined. Those who pled “Not Guilty” were found guilty and hanged. “Spectral Evidence” was allowed in courts at that time.
As for the man pressed to death with rocks, when those others made a plea the sheriff immediately seized all their property. This man, by refusing to make a plea managed to save his property for his family as the sheriff could not confiscate it without a plea being made.
When the rocks pressed down on him, and he was told to make a plea, his only words were...”MORE WEIGHT!”

Climate change is a good example of mass hysteria.

“Yes. Covid beats them all”.

That’s for sure. Covid also fits into Mass Psychosis.

“#1: ‘Covid.’” Yes. Everyone around the world wore useless masks and some even got experimental shots that were hastily developed. Wow.

Number 8. Climate change. The climate fraudsters have been at it for about 100 years and have NEVER been right, but credulous fools hyperventilate and lose bladder control at the thought of it. There is no evidence that humans contribute anything to weather and climate, but the hysterical demonstrate, fly private jets to conferences, block roadways, push EVs which burn more fossil fuel than ICE engines vehicles all in the name of the dreaded and imaginary anthropogenic climate change.
