I'm not so sure that the exploding minds around us is something to look forward to. The collective collapse of the global psyche could make the virus, damage from lockdowns and economic collapse look like a picnic. There are not enough psychiatrists in the world to cure all of the basket cases, especially as the psychiatrists themselves are probably all basket cases. Dangerous idea: is this our Darkness at Noon moment, like when the stalinist purges caused idealistic communists to confess to crimes they hadn't committed, to preserve communism itself, we may have to toe the line about lockdowns (faking it, for sure) just to preserve the psyches of our fellow earthlings, to stop them from being lost to us forever?
