It's almost as if a switch was flipped and the person you knew - be it parent, child, spouse, friend, employer, colleagues - they became a hostile stranger. It was and is an insane mindset. The government, and Don Lemon, told people that they needed to exclude and shame their loved ones. And they did. Who would've thunk????? It was a shock upon shock upon shock to live through.
Self sorting of the population into two groups. Psychologists know that 80% of people are terrified of being split away from the herd. Even if the herd is doing what the Germans were doing in 1943.
What's remarkable about it for me, is how stupid, how phony, how absolutely lacking in courage this mess revealed in others. Folks I thought would naturally know better: the ones who hated Monsanto for its GMO & related crimes; the WholeFoods devotees; the "intuitive" Christians who were so wise, wholesome, homeschooley; the boomers who claimed a heritage of questioning and resistance; the naturopaths and chiropractors I know; the loudmouths who claimed they would and did stand up to injustice...all of them revealed to be sheep, phonies, even. And turned on me in a NY minute, professionally and personally. If this sh*t had never happened, would these (sometimes) truly grotesque demonstrations of character defects ever be revealed? And what does that mean, really, for all relationships, personal, family, business: - how true were they/are they?
My sister in law lives in earth cookie land in Northern CA, eat organic everything, never vaccinated her two children. Yet she and my brother AND their adult children ran out and got the jabs. Go figure!
I do not understand relationships like this. 🤷♀️ Something serious is missing. 😕
