Malone: 'Mass Formation' Deployed On You After Over 200 Years Of Study

". . . the psychological process of mass formation got stronger and
stronger throughout the last two centuries and eventually leads to
totalitarian thinking and in the end also to the emergence of
totalitarian states.”

That seems to be where we are headed right now.

...with some dovetail into the purports and central thesis of your original post. The formula is rooted in the history of human nature through the ages. In regard to elementary human psychology, things change very slowly (over centuries).

Many people (unlike most on this forum) have not had the luxury of being able to study history in much depth and are unaware that totalitarian states (known as "city-states" in ancient times) are the norm for this planet, while free-states (with free election of representatives supported by the Rule of Law) are the exception. 

With very few exceptions (none which lasted long) virtually all of the most-powerful states in history have been tyrannical oligarchies (often led by dictators).

The remarkably-advanced (ideologically) Roman Republic included legal entitlements, freedoms and protections not only for the ruling classes, but also the general population. Sadly the deeply-corrupt Roman Empire supplanted the noble Roman Republic (as copied in the Star Wars mythology) after only a few hundred years - and it degenerated into and remained a militant nepotistic oligarchy (Imperial) until it fragmented and evaporated after about 1500 years.  

People who make comparisons of the US government (as formed by the Founders) as being supposedly, "based on the corrupt Roman Empire," are clearly ignorant of the fact that the Founders studied the Roman REPUBLIC, not the Roman EMPIRE for inspiration in writing the founding documents. Hence the vital difference between a pure Democracy (Roman mob rule) and a (Constitutional) Republic (rule by law, not people). 

There has been a shift in the attitude taken toward society as being governed by the Rule of Law. Originally in ancient times, laws were focused on being guidelines for justice with the objective of the law (justice) using legalisms (precise stipulations) as a tool to achieve justice. 

Largely and increasingly we have seen how focus on legalism has supplanted focus on justice. Instead of using law to achieve justice, "lawyers/judges" are soley concerned with whether legalisms are being conformed to. So conforming to the means (legalism) has become more-important than achieving the end (justice). 

The truism , "Neither the Nazis or the Communists ever broke a single law" is actually true. Because their states could change laws according to the whims of whoever was in power (they were not authentic republics but instead oligarchies) they never had to violate their own laws if they wanted to do something horrible. All Hitler had to do was change the laws and voila! Concentration camps were set up and genocide could proceed as "needed" by the German government. 

Of course, international laws were broken by the Nazis and the Communists (and the Ottoman Empire, etc.) in their time, but none of the atrocities they committed were against their OWN laws, because their sleazy relationship with republicanism enabled them to simply change laws at will. 

The essential difference between republican and democratic rule is this single element - when government changes hands in a republican form of government, the prevailing body of laws (which the population agrees is legitimate) does not change. So, in a republic, a new government does not mean a new set of laws - to achieve that sort of horror, once must govern by pure democracy (mob rule).

BTW - to the point of the topic...the death-rate for C-19 is about 150 in 100K...

...at least in my own city. In others with multi-generational homes and institutionalized high-poverty (70-100%) the death rate is as high as 450 per 100K.

That means for people in my community, the general death rate for those infected with C-19 is about 1 out of 1000. In that same time period more people in the same (or similar) group will have died from either suicide, car accidents, heart-failure, drug overdose, or cancer (i.e., just about anything else).

In many of the higher-risk communities, young people are more-likely to die from a gunshot wound than C-19 by a factor of ten or more (Compton, CA). 

So a death-rate of 150 per 100K is fairly low, especially for a pandemic. The Spanish Flu (which possibly also came from China) had a death rate as high as 2000 at peak (30% of those infected, died). The percentage rate of death for those infected with C-19 is something like 0.5 % (one-in-200 infected die).   

So we need to put this in perspective to other existential threats.

While at the same time, it is expected 1 of every 2700 children will die from the jab. That's before the big push and the cases of myocarditis. CRIMINAL
