"We are dominated by the relatively small number of persons who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind...and contrive new ways to bind and guide the world." -- Edward Bernays, "Propaganda", chapter 1 (1928)

I discount a lot of Desmet's book, I simply don't like it much and yes he seems to at least eagerly avoid the very opbvious conspiratorieal behaviors that are evidently involved, and a lot of it is well documented. Breggin certainly went too far with his final ad hominem over a professional mistake Desmet may have made. Breggin's book will be evidence in court. Desmet will not, nobody would try to use his stuff as a defense given the level of evidence that we already know about. However, Desmet is helpful in exploring how society behaved. And again, the way people went along with the lockdowns and the vax is not exculpatory for those who perpetrated these abusive regimes, but it is an important issue in society and we need to come to grips with that. https://pharmageddon-and-phoenix.letterdrop.com/c/allopathic-autodaf
Went too far? Is it going too far to discuss Fauci's experiments on beagles? That's an ad hominem too. I think Desmet's "professional mistake" gives the public some insight about who he is and how to evaluate his work. The text is not to be quarantined.
IMO, Desmet's professional mistake was a type of self-debunking. If someone is a narcissist and charlatan, I need to know that. Otherwise, we could read a study on digitalis at face value, not knowing or caring about the context, that the correct dose was determined by murdering prisoners in concentration camps.
OTOH, a text itself often contains its own markers for bad faith. But why not make it easier and include context and biographical details, to make it easier for people who aren't able to figure it out? Our lives are at stake. We aren't in freshman comp.

malone was given the job to make this psycho famous, and through him this mass formation bs. malone sounds like an operation with a team assisting, got all these expensive movies etc. etc.
That's a ridiculous assertion. Andi don't even like Malone. I've never trusted him although I cannot point to any concrete details as to why. It's just what some of us call "rigorous intuition". And Malone has zero to do with Desmet.
the story he tells is that he got long covid for one year after the second moderna bioweapon ... and this is the inventor of mRNA ??? smt does not add up ...
I would love to know your thoughts on why you don't trust him? I have that intuitive feeling about him myself, and while I can't pin point it there is something about him that is off. I am going to hear him and Dr. Marik do a lecture in a few weeks and I will get more of a sense when I see him in person interacting.
One of the more interesting interviews of him is w/Carlson in a very relaxed setting. He was talking about Harvard. I find that a man that worked so closely w/Spooks and was in the know about how that system works, and his mention of a business partner from that era raised the flag. Then there is the forever controversy of whether he invited the mRNA or if he signed off on it.
Whenever people pop up out of nowhere is always kinda a red flag. One concern I have w/any of these people is the feeling now that they have an audience they realize they can build an industry, much like the self-help gurus. Big bucks in that right? Lots of people are screwed up and looking for "help", much like the vaxxine. I don't begrudge people making a living, but making a killing off people's fear and vulnerabilities is a concern. More and more I see certain people loving the notoriety and camera, the celebrity aspect.
Those that can remain humble and true will do well.
I am a cynic, I don't trust anyone, but I am glad to read I am not the alone that finds him not quite right.
I find Dr. Malone highly credible. I've gained a wealth of insight from his writings and interviews. He has explained his full background early on, though perhaps newer followers have not accessed that information. I do not think he is in this for the money or fame whatsoever. In fact, for anyone to become so involved in trying to reveal medical, scientific, and government corruption and crimes, is tantamount to losing the very luxuries in life he once enjoyed, as now he is a constant target of leftist smears and character assignation, as are others in the same position. I thought it important to bring this perspective to the conversation.
The ability to make cogent arguments in debates trumps being right and wrong, and all of our positions are ultimately not fixed in stone as all is flux......

YES: Mass Induced Psychosis is the mind control bridge, or hinge that facilitates the fears, meanings, values and ultimately agendas. BY THE WAY, Thanks for the word, INDUCED. I've been using it in many places. THEN, my experience is that more people are in an induced HYPNOSIS (awakeable) than in an induced PSYCHOSIS (locked into madness).
Your last points resonated with me, on this initial read. I need to go read your other pieces, but will proffer this here.
We (Americans) have had an active and long standing propaganda arm, effectively from the time Warner Bros was formed in 1918. While the government apparatchiks were not in place yet, the foundation was set for the forerunner of Barthes' wrestling.
I've often verbally sparred with fellow conservatives over their continued, gleeful patronage of an industry, that is overtly & covertly calling for their destruction. The psyops, waged by hollwood, are masterful, when compared to the government...but they are catching up.
Think of the absurdity of the following:
- An industry in business to sell fake stories
- Told by actors (members of the peasant class, chosen for their appeal)
- Sold to the peasant class as a whole.
- This industry knows that the peasants are prone to psychological manipulation
- Part of their industry, is focused on endearing the actors, as heroes, villains, idols, role models, sex symbols and the societal ideals where looks, body shapes, mannerisms and fashion is concerned (remember they are pretending to be fake characters in a fictional story).
- The propaganda model like a filtering lens...is undetectable to the audiences and is interchangeable, as the product/message changes.
- At some point hollywood, is elevated to an elite class strata...it's now referred to, as if it were a sovereign nation...hollywood.
- Through the decades it swayed the complexion of societal morals, values, politics, voting, patriotism and social norms, without the peasants even notincing.
Now here is the absurd part...in the last 10 years or so, the actors have shown open contempt for the peasants...the ticket buyers.
Since Trump and COVID, hollywood has openly labeled half the voting populous as nazis, racists, phobes, idiots, terrorist, fascists and murderers (did you refuse the mask or jab...then they are talking about you).
Absurdidty...when the theaters opened back up...those same filthy peasants who were spit on by the industry...RAN back into the theaters...cash in hand.
The new top gun came out and you would have thought, we went back in time to the day after 9/11, where we all were waving flags and Americans, no division, no animosity, just kumbaya.
One movie, wipes away any memory of the manipulation, persecution and devastation the industry foisted on the peasantry.
It should be noted, that movie made 156 million...in just it's 4 day opening...in the U.S. alone.
So, ask yourself, how was it that the peasants who were shouting about rising food and gas prices, the building recession and coming depression...had no issue handing over their precious fiat dollars, to an industry that is openly leftist and socialist...and hates them...between movie openings, of course.
Let all that sink in and then ask...what the hell will it take to wake these peasants up?
I've been asking for 8-10 years and still don't have an answer...let me know if you find one.
How is that for a psy-op program??!!
Full disclosure...I am off hollywood, sports, any leftist musicians and actors.
"The Hollywood Jews would cope through 'a sustained attempt to live a fiction, and to cast its spell over the minds of others'. What is amazing is the extent to which they succeeded... Ultimately, American values came to be defined largely by the movies the Jews made."
-- Neil Gabler, "An Empire of Their Own: How the Jews Invented Hollywood" (1989)
Of course, it's not just "Hollywood" but the entire media/propaganda complex, now controlled by a handful of mega-corporations, which are "casting the spell" over us.
Don't forget that the scamdemic was brought to you by the same "coalition of the willing" that brought you 9/11. This is arguably the best, most concise summary of that day in existence>

A SHORT HISTORY (5MINS) OF 9/11 FOR THOSE THAT MISSED IT:

Great point. Bret Weinstein addresses this, saying “psychosis” is not part of Mass Formation since it’s not an emotional disorder; it’s a foundational belief system so strongly accepted that it prevents rational thought to the degree that people can lose their humanity.
I can only recommend that you follow my good friend and mentor, Jim Quinn, who's amazing website " The Burning Platform" tells the story of the consequences of Mass Formation within the context of 'The Fourth Turning' through which we are moving in 2022/3, to reach an inevitable bloody climax sometime before the end of this decade. He says:
"The simmering hatred between the left and right has been rising towards a boiling point since the 2016 election. Everything Biden and his Obama handlers have done since his installation as president in the rigged 2020 election has been designed to sow discord, create chaos, and tear apart the fabric of this country. Authoritarian despots always accuse the opposition of crimes they themselves are guilty of having committed."
I post at TBP every week as I track the course of the multiple collapses we are witnessing, financial, social, economic, and more through the eyes of the last great empire - Great Britain - and empire upon which the sun never set:
I’m jumping back to the topic of Malone as I didn’t have time to comment on an older article talking about him.
I always thought his story stunk about why he got vaxxed. He shows up out of the blue disparaging the vax ?! He was kinda late to the party of why we should be anti vax.
He told us he had covid but felt it was lingering like “ long covid” and he thought getting the vax might alleviate his symptoms?!!!!! It’s like what???!!! Anyone with a sciences background knows that makes no sense normally.
He thinks the vax is terrible but gets vaxxed? It never made sense. Just like Desmet showing up out of the blue with Malone.
To me they are both CIA manipulated players put out there to help control the masses.
Yes, he is a strange cat. The out of the blue thing is very odd, so is his vax story. What really gets me is how he was a staunch democrat, lived in that world and now he has suddenly over night changed his politics? Same w/the Wolf woman, I remember her from back in the day as a hard core democrat. Sure people can change, I dunno, some of this stuff is unusual to say the least.
The way I see it is that Desmet has looked at the frailties of the human condition and accordingly constructed a new pathology (as his profession tends to do) to describe the current mind boggling obedience, compliance and acquiescence to tyranny. As you correctly point out 2ndSG, what Desmet seems to ignore is the inducement, the intentional and planned manipulation and exploitation of the vulnerable masses. To not see the evil planning behind the plandemic and to blame it all on the mental weaknesses of the frightened crowd is missing half the story. It's a co-created tyrannical reality. For mass formation to exist, a lack of critical thinking and discernment and associated anxieties is necessary, but so is the intent to control and exploit. A Mass Induced Formation is therefore a more accurate description of the current tyrannical dystopian nightmare.
Apologies in advance for any typos, errors, etc.
This article was written very quickly to address comments made earlier today.
I hope this article helps clear up some issues up, though i would not be in the least surprised if it causes greater confusion.
This was all whipped up off the cuff in a matter of minutes......

Great article - thank you!
Very nice article. I agree that Desmet’s ideas explain some of what we are living through but it does not explain the bigger picture.
malone was given the job to make this psycho famous, and through him this mass formation bs. malone sounds like an operation with a team assisting, got all these expensive movies etc. etc.

i would say ridiculous is malone claiming to have gotten 2 moderna vaxx.
He has had two? I thought only one?
the story he tells is that he got long covid for one year after the second moderna bioweapon ... and this is the inventor of mRNA ??? smt does not add up ...

I am not a newer follower. Your description is what I thought when he first appeared on the scene, but something else is in the mix.
I'm with you. And I can tell you why I don't trust him:

Oh my,
Such a spirited group!
If an article be judged by the intensity of debate…
Excellent job 2SG!
Thank you.
The ability to make cogent arguments in debates trumps being right and wrong, and all of our positions are ultimately not fixed in stone as all is flux......
And it is only through vigorous debate on a host issues that we learn what we truly have in common.
No, you're still not understanding Desmet at all. It's so weird how people are having such trouble understanding him. It's kind of mind blowing.
Gosh, this latter commentary on mass psychosis is just brilliant.
Thank you.
And indeed the whole mess of propaganda does flow freely in and out and
through the mass of it. One must think with a rebel nature to get a toe hold
and climb free. It isn't easy but well possible.

I've been using it in many places. THEN, my experience is that more people are in an induced HYPNOSIS (awakeable) than in an induced PSYCHOSIS (locked into madness).
You can use any word after "mass induced" from psychosis to simply fear to whichever psyop is being run to induce the desired mental state.
My sense is that the more susceptible people go psychotic, the less are "just" hypnotized - so I like to use the 2 different terms. And your sense?
Great piece...and a hell of allot to digest.
