What are the conditions in any society that will cause a people to willingly sacrifice their freedoms? Mattias Desmet has studied and lectured extensively on this phenomenon. He is a professor of clinical psychology at Ghent University has and holds a masters degree in statistics. After noticing some anomalies in the statistical analyses conducted during the pandemic, he became concerned by the consensus narrative. He joined me today to discuss his expertise in a phenomenon called ‘mass formation’, a type of collective hypnosis essential for the rise of totalitarian regimes. He provides the step by step formula for this collective psychosis to take hold and how this relates to our current situation. He cautions against the dangers of our current societal landscape and offers solutions both individually and collectively to prevent the willing sacrifice of our freedoms.

***a type of collective hypnosis essential for the rise of totalitarian regimes***

Sounds interesting - and possibly horribly accurate. Freedom seems to just be slipping away, almost not regarded. I keep asking my son, "Where is the counter fight?! Where are the Republicans? Where is the military?"

I feel fairly certain that The Great Reset and the globalist elite are behind almost all of this - and Geo S0r0s, of course... China being part of the puzzle somewhere... sigh
