It's easier to use fear and panic to control people.
Anyone remember the months, or even years after 9/11?
People were posting the phrase "Terrorists terrorists 9/11 god bless America" when GW would speak. Because they'd try and scare you. And it worked.
If you can be controlled through emotion, you have proven you can be controlled.
And it has been quite awhile since then. But we've seen that things like covid will make people gleefully turn in their neighbors to the covid gestapo for good boy points.
Forget 9/11, you just have to look back to Covid to see that. I don't know if I'll ever forgive...what is it, eighty percent of the populace for just rolling over and doing what they were told despite how batshit insane it was. It's cowards all the way down.
They didn’t simply roll over. They embraced it. They informed on people who dared to gather in numbers without properly social distancing, or didn’t go down supermarket aisles in the right direction, or failed to wear a mask in their presence. Then they ignored all those supposedly vital, life saving protocols in the name of protesting on behalf of St. Floyd without questioning how odd it was that the world’s most deadliest virus was apparently socially aware. Then when the vaccines rolled out they swallowed the experts’ bullshit about natural immunity—which had literally helped humanity survive for all of human history—simply wasn’t good enough.
Anybody who didn’t come out of 2020 - 2022 without realizing how hopeless humankind is didn’t pay attention.
You're not wrong, but don't forget that enough people said "no, fuck all that" that they eventually had to give up on the whole thing entirely. All is not lost.
Trump’s 51st state rhetoric has been weaponized by globohomo & the Canadian WEF types more recently as well.
Imagine a country consisting of entirely California & New York-like regions suddenly enacting TDS in 80-90% of the populace overnight with effectively zero Republican counterbalance.
And the remaining 10-20% of "conservatives" are cowering Mitt Romney RINO types who don't like Trump either, but are too scared to say anything. So they turtle hoping to ride out the "Two Minutes of Hate".
Yep, especially when they implemented the Terror Alert levels that was constantly displayed on all major networks. Because it was so important for you to know that today has a yellow risk of terrorism.
I loved how the terror alert would always go up on holidays and the anniversaries of other terrorist events. Even though neither 9/11 nor the Oklahoma City bombing occurred on holidays or the anniversaries of any relevant events.
the greatest piece of psychological damage inflicted on society in the last decade is the medicalization of the human brain.
They view their emotions and mental state as completely externalized, so the entire world has to make them happy/feel good/etc. This CRIPPLES any ability to deal with day to day life. These people flee as fast as possible from reality into drugs and safe spaces.

Nothing has changed.

The Oklahoma bombing was on the anniversary of the Waco massacre.
"Not that kind of terrorist anniversary!"
Forgot about that. Thanks.
The Bali bombings were one year, one month and one day after the September 11 attack, which is an odd coincidence if it is one.

It’s like cultivation theory or locus of control. These things are choices people make, not inevitable or inherent phenomena.
