Romney is a huge part of the problem, if you recall he was one of the primary RINOs who had family members "working" at Ukraine Energy companies.

I came across this interesting article, while studying the personalities and mental illnesses of both Trump and Putin, at a time when the world is so interested in what is going on with the Russian destruction of Ukraine. Because I myself have problems of PTSD, depression and anxiety, I found it impossible to not link that these two men have mental illnesses, Putin with Asperger's and his friend Trump with narcissistic personality disorder. It is vital that I understand what is going on between these two men, in order to understand what will happen to our world. I of coarse, am at no direct threat to either one of them, but am an intelligent woman who happens to be disabled with epilepsy, and would like answers to understand the terrible treatment of our world.

On UK media they are beating the 'Putin bad' drum, declaring how precious our freedoms and democracy are and that we must stand up to Putin.

You have to laugh after the tyrants governing the Western world have just emptied their bowels all over our fundamental liberties and human rights they expect us to pretend that Putin is the threat rather than them.

"Kiev is considered the birthplace of the Russian people, and has almost a sacred place in Russian history" documented by John Steinbeck in his interesting reportage "Russian Journal" published in 1948. Fascinatingly, and relating to Mass Psychosis, is his observation that Stalin was still worshipped with religious fervour in most of the places visited - despite what I guess must have been broadly understood about the pogroms that had already occurred by then https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin#Death_toll_and_allegations_of_genocide

Been listening to CS Lewis' Screwtape Letters... The first letter sounds like it could have been written for today (what's scary is the it was written about 80 years ago).

Our (my) obsession with being informed (fomo) is a big part of the problem. And when you consume news without testing its truthfulness, it is very easy to get caught up in ideas without knowing what you are getting caught up in (esp when censorship is as rife as it is).

Break the cycle... Stop reading everything, stop believing everything (the author wants to sell you something, he wants to convince you).

I deleted the BBC app off my phone yesterday - have known for a long time that as part of the "Trusted News Initiative" I am getting slanted news, and I knew the direction of the slant... But yesterday I just couldn't anymore. And the problem is that you do not know if you can trust any of the reporting, none of it is objective.

Superb analysis. I would only offer one small but fundamental enhancement. Mass formation psychosis, or any psychosis, is driven by mass formation stupidity. Stupidity has been cultivated by the failed education system for several generations, and is the essential ingredient for any psychosis, large or small. Mass formation is a natural effect of our innate desire to cooperate for mutual benefits. We are tribal creatures. Psychosis only arises when those benefits are not processed correctly due to mental incompetence. This incompetence shifts cooperation to dependence, which drives survival fears exhibited as psychotic behaviors.

Those who are concerned about mass psychosis need only ask, why are we not subject to the same psychosis as our neighbors? What do we have that they lack? The best insight is that we were trained differently, giving us "superpowers" of insight and competence that they lack. Better parents, probably, and better luck in encountering and absorbing better experiences that formed us. The solution is to improve the training of the psychotics, and future generations.

It's said you can lead horses to water but you can't make them drink. That's why we use whips. Their retraining is essential for a more stable future for all of us. It's unlikely to happen without the whip.

Thank you. A lucid and insightful article.

"Kiev is considered the birthplace of the Russian people, and has almost a sacred place in Russian history..." Sharing a recent William Toel video for the German people about Putin for your interest.

I don't think the LGBITQ++++++++++++ stuff is liberal at all. They've inserted themselves there and then co-opted it. I actually think they plan to rework Jesus.

Where's Apollo these days when you need him?

What are your predictions for what will happen in Ukraine over the next few weeks?

Taiwan is one to keep an eye out for as well. Both at the same time is conceivable.
