As they say, I beg to differ. I genuinely think it is mortal fear, plus absence of faith, which, whether true or not, promises eternal life. As does psilocybin and as does evidence of NDEs, but all of us human animals fear death and want to survive, and the fifth generation warfare coming at people day and night, pulsing mortal fear---aliens, nukes, leprosy, new variants---plus the effing administration causing massive inflation, and the stores taking advantage of that, so people not being able to afford rent, food, medicine, transportation, so existential fear, not to mention the crap climate idiocy pulsed with end of the world predictions. Hard to resist that and masks seem like a talisman against death. I saw teens outside alone last winter shoveling snow wearing blue plastic masks. Terror management. The propaganda has to stop, but they just pulse it harder. They want people to fall deeper into the mental mass formation, not wake up, and they are effing sophisticated.

Something has been wrong for at least forty years, that everyone was ready to sacrifice children to the lockdowns and vaccines and wokeism. Adults are no longer adults, these parents are developmentally and mentally screwed up at a population level.
