According to the CDC, 2022’s death toll will climb 13% higher than in 2019, the final normal year before the Great Panic. Huh, who could’ve predicted that lockdowns could kill? Many, in fact. But no one listened as the puppet masters induced a panicked stampede among the midwit population, none of whom actually experienced anything other than mild discomfort from the policies that they advocated for. The Great Panic was a child of middle/upper class white collar workers, who could indulge apocalyptic fantasies, and who shifted the costs onto middle-to-lower class workers who were already living paycheck to paycheck. The BMW and Cadillac drivers, who flaunted their N95’s in public as a quadrupedal display of virtue, were already psychologically primed for such a dawn as we saw in early 2020. Just remember how they behaved. They were ready to shrug off their empty lives entirely, forsake their entire past in order to live amid the primitive world they saw coming into being.
This is a point rarely, if ever, made: the white collar workers of the US were ready to throw their old lives away almost immediately. What does this tell you about their lives pre-pandemic? It tells you that they hated their lives, their world, and despaired for their future. They felt no meaning, and the pandemic gave them what they desperately desired. This may be the most important point of the psychological aspect of what we experienced.
We are made to believe that wealth, status, and beauty in our modern world are desirable above all things. And yet those very people who have achieved it were ready to see the modern world burn to ash, all for the hope of achieving true meaning amid Apocalypse. This is a stunning realization, that the wealthy in America are mired in desperation of their meaningless lives, and those who may appear “poor” or working class are the ones who have achieved real meaning. The ones who were resistant the pandemic religion were the ones who had achieved meaning, the ones who were resistant to masks and vaccines, and lockdown.
One could conclude that the entire pandemic response was fueled by the meaningless of the lives of America’s professional class and their subconscious desire to see the modern world reduced to physical and intellectual rubble.
