Every now and then, I enjoy the unusually well written, acted, and produced SciFi movie. In one such intense and shockingly pleasing movie I saw recently, a mind bending revelation was made in the closing scenes. Everyone in the movie was insane, to one degree or another. Which brings me to this question. Given the incrementally absurd and nonsensical world of today, are we insane? And if so, what is the cause? Environmental, technological, or is the human evolutionary process leading us to crazy? These are legitimate question. I'm not referring to true debilitating insanity. But a collective degradation of reasoning in humans, which allows for day to day function in society, which manifests itself when the right stimulus is introduced. Take for example the fear of being eaten alive. Something that could be associated with some distant encoded memory of the time when we were hunter-gatherers. That could be an explanation for stampedes caused by panicking crowds, such as in the incident in Israel not long ago. This is not what I am referring to. While animals focus on the present only, humans on the other hand, "sit and worry" about what will happen in three minutes, in three hours, three days, or three months from now. Our ability to think things over, and over, can be not only counterproductive but destructive. It leads to obsessive tendencies. Although many mental health issues today may be caused by the overly-functional human brain, others could be a result of our modern relentless 24-hour news cycle. The constant bombardment of negative news—fear porn. This can and will affect the brain. Have you ever heard of the word "Menticide?" It is the systematic and intentional undermining of a person's conscious mind. It is a term used to describe the killing of the mind. The disruption of reasoning. The atrophy of thought. The making of a compliant mind through structured conditioning which can start at the formative years. The Marxists not only understand this but they have perfected it. Menticide is a critical component of totalitarianism. It conditions the masses to accept passive subjugation. This was too evident during the Covid hysteria, which under the pretense of “in the interest of public safety,” draconian mandates were forced upon millions of people exploiting the natural fear of getting sick and dying or those close to them. Take Covid-19, for example. This new Coronavirus Flu, brought people to a level of emotional stress, fear and irrational behavior, that some mental-health experts are calling it "Covid Anxiety Disorder." It is everywhere. Let me give you two examples. Just the other day I saw a woman driving in her car with the windows up, wearing two masks under a face shield and rubber gloves. I bet you she’s vaccinated and tripple boosted too. Fine, whatever makes you feel safe. But don’t expect me to follow suit. I remember driving up to a CVS pharmacy's drive-through window back in 2020, to pick up a prescription. I wasn’t wearing a mask. I rang the bell and a pharmacist appeared behind the two inch bulletproof glass and first thing out of her mouth was through a microphone: "sir you need to wear your mask.“ To which I responded: “I'm in my car and you are indoors behind that glass speaking to me through a microphone." Without blinking she again says I must wear a mask. Of course this time she threatened me with no service. I needed the prescription, so I had to comply. Although this was a small isolated incident, it is an example of how tyranny can be too easily forced on us. Even though credible studies exist, from recognized authorities in the field of medical research, that previously infected people have antibodies that fight off reinfection, and despite everything that we know today of how ineffective these vaccines are, not to mention the side affects including death, they continue to push the DNA altering mRNA experimental vaccines. Some are still calling for vaccination mandates for you to participate in society. Which brings us back to my main point. Insanity. People with aggressive, narcissistic, and often sociopathic personalities, are the easiest to understand; they look out for number one. They have apathy towards anyone else. Many are in positions of power and authority in our society, and they will force compliance out of you one way or the other. They are in powerful political offices. They are CEOs of fortune 500 companies. They are police chiefs. And yes, even a local pharmacist. As far as nature is concerned. Sometimes unpleasant mental states lead to greater success, so these genes stay in the gene pool.
Natural selection also likely held the door open for disorders such as attention deficit. Quickly abandoning a low stimulus situation was more helpful for male hunters than female gatherers, which may explain why boys are five times more likely than girls to be hyperactive. Similarly, in its mildest form, bipolar disorder, which affects more women than men, can increase productivity and creativity. But now we consider a frightening possibility. Insanity.
But in reality, insanity is a legal concept. Mentally ill is what I mean, particularly, a high-functioning mentally ill person who can get up and go about their day, go to school or work, and maintain a relatively predictable life. They aren't too majorly impacted by their hidden condition. But impose the right stimuli, and Mr. Hyde comes out. Or should I say Mrs.Hyde, as most often than not, these functioning mentally ill people are women.
It is a fact that, as demonstrated by a recent credited study by the Pew Research Center, that women account for a large number of mental issues in our society today. White women suffered the worst of all in ages 18-29, who identified as very politically liberal. They were given a negative mental health diagnosis from medical professionals at a rate of 56.3%, as compared to 28.4% to the politically moderate and 27.3% to the politically and culturally conservative women.
Several questions arise from this revealing study. Are these women mentally ill because of their ideology? Or are they attracted to their ideology because they are mentally ill? Or are the emerging behavioral and mental issues a byproduct of evolution? The last question scares me the most.
But truth be told, we live in a world today ruled by cowards. With coward rules and customs. And in order to get ahead, you must adopt victimhood so that you can blame the system or someone else for your failures and shortcomings. We no longer live in a world of the strong and fittest. We instead live in a world or the weak and the unfitted. Darwin’s theory of evolution no longer applies.
