Tucker Carlson produced a quality interview of Mattias Desmet.
The Epoch Times also has an excellent commentary and
there is our book review of "The Psychology of Totalitarianism" which points to the way to a state of psychological immunity through the practice and process of repentance.

"Under the influence of great fear, almost everybody becomes superstitious. Collective fear stimulates herd instinct, and tends to produce ferocity towards those who are not regarded as members of the herd. Fear generates impulses of cruelty, and therefore promotes such superstitious beliefs as seem to justify cruelty. Neither a man nor a crowd nor a nation can be trusted to act humanely or to think sanely under the influence of a great fear." ~Bertrand Russell.
Ecclesiastes 12:5 speaks of a fear[1] that will get in the way of the people and shatters and dismays the people so that they are subject to a Mass formation which causes their ability to function in the "course of life" according to a degenerated "moral character".[1]
Mass Psychosis
Mass formation of psychosis did not begin with the term. It has been a part of the mind of man since the beginning of the fear of the unknown. The more we are in denial about the truth the more we will be controlled by that fear.
"What is mass formation actually?
1. Blind to contradictory facts
It’s a specific kind of group formation that makes people radically blind to everything that goes against what the group believes in. In this way, they take the most absurd beliefs for granted." Mattias Desmet
- Sacrifice truth
2. Sacrifice individual interest
"A second characteristic of an individual in the grip of mass formation is that they become willing to radically sacrifice individual interest for the sake of the collective." Mattias Desmet
- Sacrifice individual interests out of fear
3. Intolerant for dissonant voices
"Thirdly, individuals in mass formation become radically intolerant for dissonant voices. In the ultimate stage of the mass formation, they will typically commit atrocities toward those who do not go along with the masses. And even more characteristic: they will do so as if it is their ethical duty." Mattias Desmet[2]
- Sacrifice others
Four Elements
Four elements to Mass Formation Psychosis which produces a group think which can lead to a Lemming effect in society or if left unchecked to a bloody inquisition of self destruction:
- Isolation; prolonged social isolation limiting interaction.
- Deprivation; removal of normal comforts.
- Anxiety; Free floating anxiety and reminders of fear.
- Single solution; A singular solution offered from an authoritarian. position.
Accordingly, this Psychosis produces a population that is radically intolerant. This intolerance and fear will lead to irrational compulsions with no limit to the extremes that will be acceptable to unify that solution.
Delving into disorder
Psychosis is "a severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality."
Reality is the truth and the Psychosis is the result caused by am unperceived disconnect from that reality.[4] That disconnect from understanding from rea;oty, that real truth, is preceeded by a disconnect or isolation from other by weakening or severing bonds of natural relationships that are important to the mental health of the entity.
Social bonds include the emotional, physical, intellectual, economic, and spiritual ties of love, friendship, fellowship, partnership, association, and affiliation created qithin the family, community, and society.
These bonds themselves are invisible and may only be be marked by symbols through tokens and rituals or evidenced by patterns of behavior considered virtuous based on cultural created norms and morality.
A disorder is in essence an unknowing departure from what is real and it "is characterized by a clinically significant disturbance in an individual's cognition, emotional regulation, or behaviour."
- “It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so.” Mark Twain
Even though the reality people think they believe is not true, but is actually a lie, they persist in thinking it to be true because of the pain of their personal cognitive dissonance is to great. Having already accepted somethings as if they are true but that contradict each other they become trapped in a dark place and are unable to see clearly the whole problem. This Psychosis or impairment of thoughts and emotions has existed long before the modern term was created.
A Psychosis is a modern medical term that amounts to the persons mind being "darkened" so that they cannot see reality and reason clearly. People suffering from mental Psychosis are said to sit in darkness. The Psychosis may be produced by choices made prior to the Psychosis taking hold of the mind.
There have been interviews talking about the subject.[5]
Immunity
Are there customs and cultural practices that will make one society more immune to the negative effects of Mass Formation Psychosis just as certain practices can enhance the psychosis?
Who is more likely to fall prey to the irrational compulsions that leads to a mass psychosis? Is it the weak minded and uneducated?
"Even more, the higher the level of education, the easier, the more vulnerable people are for mass information." Mattias Desmet
Is it the education or the vanity perpetuated by catering to the idea that one class of citizen is better than another?
The problem today with depression is that we have created a culture where survival no longer requires that you care about others as much as you care about yourself causing social bonds to degenerate which isolates us as individuals even in a crowd. We were not meant to be alone.
That isolation will usher in a psychosis within society which could usher in a loyalty to the doctrines of the blind until the masses are under such a strong delusions that they willing commit national suicide rather than see the truth.
To not love or prize the value of your neighbor as much as yourself will wedge a divide into the social bonds of a free society.
Liberty of the individual is essential to strengthen the social bonds of a healthy nation.
“The real destroyers of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations, and benefits.” Plutarch
When those dainties of a Social welfare State are provided by men who exercise authority one over the other the whole of society will degenerate because of those covetous practices.
To reverse this proccess the people must choose to gather voluntarily to care for the true needy of their society through fervent charity in hope instead of fear.
The production of a mass psychoses has always been the direct result of the masses developing an appetite for benefits at the expense of others. This cause a degeneration of the Social bonds of society.
Out from psychosis and into the light
- The antitheses of Isolation is community and fellowship.
- The reverse of deprivation is liberty of choice, unrestrained right to pursue happiness, private property, and an abundance of fervent charity
- Anxiety is also reversed by hope and faith as well as mutual daily practice of love.
- Instead of a central authoritarian rulers offering a controlled solution through legal charity in a state run welfare system there needs to be an almost religious commitment to the perfect law of liberty, and equal love for the individual rights as much as your own.
2 Thessalonians 2:9 [Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

- ↑ Those are the effects of mass formation. Such processes can emerge in different ways. It can emerge spontaneously (as happened in Nazi Germany), or it can be intentionally provoked through indoctrination and propaganda (as happened in the Soviet Union). But if it is not constantly supported by indoctrination and propaganda disseminated through mass media, it will usually be short-lived and will not develop into a full-fledged totalitarian state. Whether it initially emerged spontaneously or was provoked intentionally from the beginning, no mass formation, however, can continue to exist for any length of time unless it is constantly fed by indoctrination and propaganda disseminated through mass media. If this happens, mass formation becomes the basis of an entirely new kind of state that emerged for the first time in the beginning of the twentieth century: the totalitarian state. This kind of state has an extremely destructive impact on the population because it doesn’t only control public and political space—as classical dictatorships do—but also private space. It can do the latter because it has a huge secret police at its disposal: this part of the population that is in the grip of the mass formation and that fanatically believes in the narratives distributed by the elite through mass media. In this way, totalitarianism is always based on “a diabolic pact between the masses and the elite”. Mattias Desmet https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Mass_Formation
