Conformity and Coronavirus
There's a very popular question that has gone around, particularly in America, ever since the end of World War II - how could average Germans go along with what the Nazis did to the Jews and other enemies of the state? If they weren't Nazis, why did they collaborate with them? Why didn't they fight back?
There's a built in superiority complex attitude that permeates this question.
Us Americans would never do what you conformist Germans did. Maybe all Germans really are Nazis.
And many people who read this blog think that way as well.
But I think we only need to look at the current virus hysteria to prove that it's not true and that this level of diabolical uniformity is present in every society including America.
Over the past two and a half months, at least, all Americans have been inundated with news about the virus. Is there anything else going on the world? I certainly don't know because all the news will report is the virus and anything to do with it.
From the very beginning when it started to become a problem in this country, which I believe started when Wall Street insiders started selling their positions and driving the stock markets down around February 20th or so, which caused hysteria and panic that then was followed up with "science" experts telling us that this could easily kill millions of Americans, that there's no cure, and it spreads so easily that we don't know what to do.
In the midst of that swirling dervish of emotional invective, they told us that if America was going to survive this invisible threat, we needed to disregard our schools, businesses, and jobs, our families and friends, and shelter ourselves at home wearing masks and streaming movies and TV so that our medical community could deal with the inevitable outbreak.
Many of us, for one reason or another, did. Many of us didn't educate themselves about the virus, what went on in China, and what can be done to treat this virus. Many of us believed the people on TV and pubic health "experts" when they told us it was science to:
- Quarantine the healthy population (though that had never happened before in history in response to an outbreak)
- That everyone was at equal threat to die from it (though that has never been true of any virus and was known not be true with this one either)
- That children were susceptible so we need to close all schools (though all data suggests they are really not at threat of dying or even getting sick from this virus)
- That wearing a mask protects you from the virus (though that's not why people wear masks. They wear masks, if they are sick, from getting other people sick. It doesn't do anything if you are healthy. Of course, that also makes it worse if you are sick because you will continually keep increasing your viral load by re-ingesting virus particles. Oh, and one other thing - the viral particles are much smaller than the spaces between the threads of fabric.)
- That you must stay at least 6 feet from anyone else (though they've never justified why 6 feet is the magic number.)
- That HydroxyChloroQuine (HCQ) was dangerous. (though it has been established since 2005 to be effective against SARS type viruses (like this one). HCQ, with Z-Pack and Zinc (and sometimes with an IV drip of Vitamin C) has been known to be the main treatment against this virus.
- That we don't know what this virus is and the mystery adds to the fear (though we know its a SARS type virus and we have protocols to treat those viruses that work, though we don't have a vaccine for them yet, which isn't a deal breaker either. We're still working on that cold vaccine, right?)
- We may never shake hands again or interact with our fellow man the same way ever again (a favorite of Dr. Fauci's.)
- That this virus may never go away (we still have the cold virus, right? Thought so. It sounds scary, but the reality is something quite different.)
This is just a moderate list of what "science" is telling us through TV about this virus. And they're are all lies.
But try telling that to someone who believes it.
You want people to die. You don't care about other people. You're selfish. I'm going to call the cops on you. I'm going to report you for not following the "rules".
In the face of fear, many people do things they normally wouldn't do. They panic, get anxious and stressed and cease to use their logic and reason. Because they believe they know little, they rely more on those they think know more. And then they want everybody else to go along so that it justifies their decision to follow the leadership of those who know "more". The independence of others becomes as threatening to them as the initial threat.
It was applicable in Nazi Germany and it's applicable now in America with this pandemic.
The vast majority of Germans were not in favor of the Nuremberg Laws or ReichKristallnacht, but the loud minority bullied the rest to go along at a time when the Nazis could have been pushed back. Remember, when Hitler became Chancellor in 1933 they had only won the previous years elections with 42% of the vote. Eventually, the majority rationalized it as the Jews weren't really German. Then the Jews started disappearing from towns and cities. Their stores, which had the Star of David painted on their windows, went permanently shut. Their homes were empty. Rumors swirled about railroad cars. But the majority conformed to the minority and didn't say anything or stop them.
Others - Catholic dissidents including priests, Gypsys, and political opponents all went missing in the same way and still nothing.
The pressure was mounting because the war had turned on Germany. The Allies were bombing German cities regularly now and the losses sustained in the Soviet Union were astronomical, so it was understandable that these people, who didn't support the war anyway, were gone.
Only after the war was over, and the Allies marched townspeople to the gas chambers to see what was happening all around the former Third Reich, did many Germans come face to face with what they supported through their conformity - the Holocaust of millions by systematic genocide. All right in front of their eyes every day.
The power of conformity is that you'll never be separated and attacked. You gain the collective security of the masses. But you lose your identity, your Soul.
For us here, in America, during this Pandemic, we face a similar challenge.
We face an enemy. It is unseen, invisible and it could destroy us. And the only way to defeat it is to willfully give up your God-given freedoms and rights and let government and public health "experts", those who "know" better, to make all the decisions because they will assure us of victory. And all those who don't go along, who don't conform, the dissidents, they can only threaten our chances of victory, so they must be silenced and removed for the greater good.
Sound familiar?
Just like it was a lie that the Jews cost Germany in World War I and were a threat to them in the 1930s and 40s, the NARRATIVE of this virus is a lie as well.
Will we allow this lie to destroy us like their lie destroyed Nazi Germany?
Do not lose your identity and your Soul by conformity. Find out for yourself what the facts of this virus are. The Internet is the greatest resource of knowledge ever created and we all have supercomputers in our hands. Stop using them to play games or yell at people on social media. It's a tool of great power. Use it and find the truth. It's there is you have the curiosity and the diligence to look for it.
Americans have always been about liberty, independence, and freedom. This spirit is in everything this country is and does. It's true heart lies in these virtues.
