They were both members of the Hitler Youth, of which my grandmother related some fond memories -- hiking through the woods in big groups, singing, and camping. They came to this country as part of Operation Paperclip, my grandfather as one of Werner Von Braun's V-2 rocket scientists, and my grandmother having worked as one of Von Braun's secretaries. How could such good people have been part of what happened in Germany?
Did they know Jewish people who had been taken away?
They did. But my grandmother says they were told that they had gone to "resorts".
Did they truly believe that? Did they know more than they were willing to share?
How does an entire country lose their moral and ethical compass and either support or acquiesce to some of the greatest atrocities of the last century? Nazis, after all, are the *gold standard of evil* in most discussions. (unless they're Ukrainian Nazis, in which case they're the new paragon of virtue).
Certainly there were some psychopathic individuals in Germany's leadership roles, but there were also some resistors (such as the "white rose" group). The vast majority of Germans, however, followed the psychopaths over the proverbial cliff of insanity. My grandparents were no exception.
Dutch psychologist Mattias Desmet has produced by far the most convincing explanation for what happened in Germany, as the same phenomena has happened many times throughout history. "Mass Formation" is his specialty, and is of special interest to me at the moment, because I believe I'm living through just such an event right now.
What is mass formation? Orwell called it "groupthink". Others have called it mass hypnosis, or mass psychosis. It's probably best to get the answer from Mattias himself. RFK Jr's interview of him is excellent. To summarize, mass formation only arises when very specific conditions are present. A collective fear, anxiety, and isolation are essential. People in such a state are looking for a way out of their misery. Someone offers a solution, and it's immediately embraced by the masses, who are unconcerned with critical thought at that stage.
The Solution gives them all a collective sense of meaning, of belonging, and a way out of their previously miserable state, and they will do everything to defend their new sense of salvation. Desmet provides a perfect example of what those under the influence of mass formation are capable of, where an Iranian mother reported her son to state authorities and proudly placed the noose around his neck on the gallows.
Anyone who questions or points out serious problems with The Solution is ridiculed, ostracized, and typically destroyed, as anyone who questions The Solution is viewed as a threat -- as someone who would return everyone to The Problem. This is exactly what happened to the White Rose Society in Germany.
Mass Formation is a sensitive subject for me, because I believe my entire family and most of my friends have, to varying degrees, taken up the current mass formation. I'm writing this not as a way to point fingers. I'm hoping I can help the people I love, in the same way that I might try to help a family member who had descended into alcoholism. As Desmet explains, the only way to break the spell of mass formation is to keep talking to its victims. Shunning only deepens the spell.
Just as Germany emerged from the mass formation of the WWII era, I've no doubt that the people I know will emerge from the current formation. I'm hoping that I can expedite this process, before the damage done to themselves and others continues further. Hopefully some of them have not developed an immunity to discussing the topic.
As with my past attempts, I expect that most will simply refuse the information I'm about to give here, or will search for "fact checking" articles that debunk them. There's certainly no shortage of those (most provided by pharma-funded media -- they're currently the source of 60% of all advertising money), including a great many that are now demonstrably false and misleading.
When confronted in court by the British Medical Journal, Facebook "fact checkers" claimed that their fact checks were "protected opinion" rather than facts. Google search algorithms have been modified to make such "fact check" articles bubble up to the top while suppressing any truth. Paypal and Patreon regularly refuse payments to anyone not touting the pharma narrative. Speaking the truth while avoiding Youtube's censors has become a new sport. The increasing grip of censorship here in the "Freest country on earth" is not a comforting trend.
There's a reason we had to imprison Assange before this all started, as he would've revealed the truth just as he'd done before, pissing off Pharma just as he'd done with military industrial complex. Over the last 3 years, the US has grown uncomfortable parallels with the East Germany that my great grandmother lived in -- a state driven by surveillance and censorship.
Perhaps one of the best examples of the illogic of the covid mass formation is the oft repeated mantra, "Safe and Effective". The "effective" part of that is clearly not true, not when Rochelle Walensky (head of the CDC) gets covid a month after publicly getting her new "bivalent" booster. That's the same booster tested on exactly eight mice -- all of whom contracted covid during the trial. It's not effective when a family member's coworker dies of covid a few weeks after the vax, and not when the only family members I know to have been hospitalized by covid were also vaccinated. Then there's Canada's Justin Trudeau as well as our own president --- both fully vaxxed and boostered, both of whom have been infected twice. I can go on and on here with both personal as well as famous examples, but you get the point.
Safe? Well, that doesn't look to be the case either. The vast majority of people who are tested after receiving the purported vaccine are showing elevated troponin levels. 13 out of 17 teenage boys tested showed exactly this. That's hardly a "rare' side effect. Troponin in the blood is an indicator of heart damage.
A rural BC doctor had patients who were experiencing problems after the Moderna jab. He ran d-dimer tests on a number of them, and found 62% were positive -- indicating the formation of blood clots. He wrote of his concern to the provincial government, seeking guidance. They told him to shut up and pulled his license when he refused.
Funeral directors in the UK, US, and Australia have all reported finding massive "rubbery" blood clots in bodies of the vaccinated deceased, which they find during the embalming process where they have to replace the blood. They all say this started when the vaccines rolled out.
Not surprisingly, these issues are manifesting in a very public manner. This news anchor suffered a stroke on live TV.
Then there's US comedian Heather MacDonald. She was bragging about being fully vaxxed and boosted when she suffered a stroke on stage, fracturing her skull when she fell. That's what it took for her to think twice about the vaccines. She now says she's not likely to take another booster for some strange reason.
Perhaps even more damning is the fact that Pfizer told the FDA -- in December of 2020 -- that their vaccine did not stop transmission. Considering how much vaccine mandates (many still in effect) have been pushed since then -- using arguments which were entirely at odds with this knowledge, I'd say that some officials have a little explaining to do.
I'm not the only one to think this. Holocaust survivor Vera Sharav gave a passionate speech recently at the 75th anniversary of the passing of the Nuremberg Code, talking about the parallels between what she experienced and what is happening today. The rollout of the covid "vaccines" is a clear violation of this code in multiple ways. I couldn't agree with her more, and firmly believe that a 2nd round of Nuremberg trials is in order. Vera is currently working on a film, titled 'Never Again is Now" where she documents how Nazi ideology was imported to the US and is alive and well.
One of Britian's most prominent cardiologists, Dr Aseem Malhotra, publicly promoted the vaccine on British TV earlier on in the pandemic, and recommended it to his father (also a doctor) along with everyone else. Shortly after receiving the vaccine, Dr Malhotra's father died, and Malhotra is convinced that the "vaccine" was the cause. This event caused him to question his support, and he began a period of intensive research into the jabs. Listen to what he has to say here:
