Book: The Psychology of Totalitarianism Hardcover – June 23, 2022
The world is in the grips of mass formation―a dangerous, collective type of hypnosis―as we bear witness to loneliness, free-floating anxiety, and fear giving way to censorship, loss of privacy, and surrendered freedoms. It is all spurred by a singular, focused crisis narrative that forbids dissident views and relies on destructive groupthink.
Desmet’s work on mass formation theory was brought to the world’s attention on The Joe Rogan Experience and in major alternative news outlets around the globe. Read this book to get beyond the sound bites!
Totalitarianism is not a coincidence and does not form in a vacuum. It arises from a collective psychosis that has followed a predictable script throughout history, its formation gaining strength and speed with each generation―from the Jacobins to the Nazis and Stalinists―as technology advances. Governments, mass media, and other mechanized forces use fear, loneliness, and isolation to demoralize populations and exert control, persuading large groups of people to act against their own interests, always with destructive results.
In The Psychology of Totalitarianism, world-renowned Professor of Clinical Psychology Mattias Desmet deconstructs the societal conditions that allow this collective psychosis to take hold. By looking at our current situation and identifying the phenomenon of “mass formation”―a type of collective hypnosis―he clearly illustrates how close we are to surrendering to totalitarian regimes.
With detailed analyses, examples, and results from years of research, Desmet lays out the steps that lead toward mass formation, including:
- An overall sense of loneliness and lack of social connections and bonds
- A lack of meaning―unsatisfying “bullsh*t jobs” that don’t offer purpose
- Free-floating anxiety and discontent that arise from loneliness and lack of meaning
- Manifestation of frustration and aggression from anxiety
- Emergence of a consistent narrative from government officials, mass media, etc., that exploits and channels frustration and anxiety
In addition to clear psychological analysis―and building on Hannah Arendt’s essential work on totalitarianism, The Origins of Totalitarianism―Desmet offers a sharp critique of the cultural “groupthink” that existed prior to the pandemic and advanced during the COVID crisis. He cautions against the dangers of our current societal landscape, media consumption, and reliance on manipulative technologies and then offers simple solutions―both individual and collective―to prevent the willing sacrifice of our freedoms.
“We can honor the right to freedom of expression and the right to self-determination without feeling threatened by each other,” Desmet writes. “But there is a point where we must stop losing ourselves in the crowd to experience meaning and connection. That is the point where the winter of totalitarianism gives way to a spring of life.”
“Desmet has an . . . important take on everything that’s happening in the world right now.”―Aubrey Marcus, podcast host
“[Desmet] is waking a lot of people up to the dangerous place we are now with a brilliant distillation of how we ended up here.”―Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
“One of the most important books I’ve ever read.”―Ivor Cummins, The Fat Emperor Podcast

New Crossword Puzzle has been added to saywebapp.com
8/27/2022
I was about so, so along on doing a new crossword puzzle and my computer froze. I got the computer back working but I had not been saving the crossword puzzle so I have to start over. But I will get-errrr done.
I do plan to start Book 8 in the Hearthville Serial. It will be published here. I do plan to put more eBooks on Amazon so my writing time is going to be divided.
& remember if you are a member of kindle unlimited The Suspense Account and Flame By Sea (published as 1 book) is now enrolled so you can read for free if you are a member. As far as non members, I am not currently planning any free day promotions. I will with the new shorter erotic mysteries/horrors but I am not doing that with that long of a book. I did that in the past and it accomplished nothing. And to be honest, I need the ($8.99×70%) – delivery cost 🙂
But to be clear I do plan to add content here for people who have been clicking and buying through my ads, as well as for the deadbeats. (Yeah, I know, you aren’t really a deadbeat.) Anyway, I’ve been slow to add content and I apologize for that.
I hope everyone is doing great and having a great conclusion to summer as Labor Day is coming up Monday, September 5, 2022.

I am still kicking. I removed a bunch of previous bulletins and the promotion for The Suspense Account and Flame By The Sea.
Much thanks for putting up with my indecision and moods.
Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year
I hope your 2021 was wonderful and your 2022 will be even better.
Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year

I found this interesting but I don’t know. It is a concept that does fit with some ideas I have been researching and playing with for the Hearthville Serial. Reminder: The Hearthville Serial is fiction and perhaps over the top, though I do try to research some concepts and belief structures.
The thoughts and information she put in this, regardless of what your belief structure is, is amazing.

On July 16, 1999, John F. Kennedy, Jr.; his wife, Carolyn Bessette Kennedy; and her sister, Lauren Bessette, die when the single-engine plane that Kennedy was piloting crashes into the Atlantic Ocean near Martha’s Vineyard.
On July 21, navy divers recovered the bodies of JFK Jr., his wife, and sister-in-law from the wreckage of the plane, which was lying under 116 feet of water about eight miles off the Vineyard’s shores. A very speedy autopsy was done. The next day, the cremated remains of the three were buried at sea during a ceremony on the USS Briscoe, a navy destroyer.
To what would he have become if he had lived, I don’t know. He was a thoughtful person, a smart person who enjoyed knowledge, but in truth he was not a very good speaker.

I will be honest. Once upon a time I liked Reese Witherspoon
She was born in Louisiana and grew up in Tennessee. She is Southern, Baby. That is a plus.
And In 1996 she made the tough ass movie Freeway.
And I liked the totally fluffy feel good Legally Blonde Movies… I did.
But then I read her twitter and it is like who the freak is this ultra liberal, close minded liberal, putting sand up your ass crack Beach liberal. Man, it is sad. How can a Southern Girl become such a cliche, plastic, should I say it again, liberal??
Then I looked into the money.

The white girl wants to be Oprah. It is sad, honey. Just sad. Yeah.
& to be clear I don’t dislike her now. I just don’t like her as much as I once did. Hating is what liberals do. Hating is not what libertarians do.

Note: ACE2 receptors are one of the primary mechanisms of infection and spread of Covid though it is a little more complicated than just ACE2 receptors. I can’t find the white paper that has the better explanation. Regardless the study on how Vitamin C and Zinc and other natural compounds might slow the spread both between people and in a person is interesting.
The results of a study ACE2 show that ascorbic acid itself has moderate but consistent lowering effects on ACE2 expression at the cellular, protein, and RNA levels. Some natural compounds were effective in lowering ACE2 cellular expression, with the highest inhibitory effects observed for baicalin (75%) and theaflavin (50%). Significantly, combinations of these and other test compounds with ascorbic acid further decreased ACE2 expression. The highest impact of ascorbate on ACE2 expression was noted when combined with theaflavin (decrease from 50% to 87%), zinc (decrease from 22% to 62%), and with 10-undecenoic acid (from 18% to 53%). Ascorbic acid showed moderate additional benefits in decreasing ACE2 expression when combined with N-acetylcysteine and baicalin.
6:59 AM China has gone full blown evil, murdering the pets of people who test positive for covid. There is NO evidence that covid infects back and forth between animals and humans. … And no google search, why in the hell would I say affects instead of infects you piece of AI shit.

Harris announces $1.5B to fight shortage of doctors in underserved communities. So in other words if you practice medicine in certain areas the government will reduce/help pay for the cost of your education. “Thanks to the American Rescue Plan, this funding will support over 22,700 providers—the largest field strength in history for these programs and a record number of skilled doctors, dentists, nurses, and behavioral health providers committed to working in underserved communities during a moment when we need them the most,” the announcement continued.
<< It is kind of like pissing in the ocean and pointing at wave and asking, “Did I do that?” like you have the power to cause the ocean level to rise. You have to wonder if Harris even realizes she is the Vice-President of the United States of America and not some tiny country like Jamaica. A lot of people from immigrant families, for some reason, don’t seem to have a clue to how large, how rich, and how powerful the United States is.
6:18 AM Germany’s Health Minister is fairly insane. #opinion It is hard to get a true handle on the survival rate of covid because google has topped their search results with fake fact checking bullshit. But, if you catch it, you treat it, and don’t allow the government to murder you in the hospital w/out real treatment you have a fairly high chance of surviving it. There is very little provable evidence that the vaccine changes those odds much, because early on most people who caught covid didn’t even get sick from it so how can you prove that has changed or more to the point that now suddenly, the vaccine is the reason most people who test positive do not get very sick and die.
Germany’s vaccination rate is around 65% and yet their case load has been increasing and the number of people who subject themselves to hospitals has been increasing. Since the roll out of the untested vaccines in the US the number of cases has increased to a number higher than before the vaccines. The Health Minister of Germany and his crazy eyes should be put in a straight jacket somewhere. #opinion
