text: 3 Ways Human Psychology is Being Exploited to Create an Obedient, Self-Policing Society : Conscious Life News
  The human psyche is built to withstand only a certain amount of pressure, and in our ever-connected world, during a global crisis, the stressful stimuli we're soaking up in a single day is astronomical. The mind has a few coping mechanisms, like fight or flight, cognitive dissonance, denial, Stockholm syndrome, etc., but in a time like this, you're likely to experience it all.
  As the chronic stress grinds on, with no end in sight, it wears us down emotionally, physically, and mentally, and in this state, we regress into more habitual, subconsciously driven behaviors, and the mind becomes very easy to manipulate. To the interrogator or torturer, sustained stress is the key to unlocking the mind and the key to creating obedience and conformity.
  There has been a sustained, century-long effort to crack the code of the mass mind, which today includes all of the tools of technology, media, and social media. In the midst of the Covid-19 crisis, in the most divisive period in modern American history, some of the more dangerous aspects of human psychology are taking root in the mass mind.
  Stanley Milgram's famous 1961 social experiment on obedience to authority is hailed as a milestone in our understanding of how people's ethics can drastically change when responsibility for their actions is deferred to an authority figure, such as an 'expert' or leader. Intrigued by the role of Nazi military personnel in concentration camps during WWII, Milgram wanted to know how much coercion people needed in order to willingly inflict harm on another person.
  In the Covid-19 reality, the masses are being deliberately directed toward one set of experts and influencers and directed away from other credible but contrarian perspectives. Those today who believe in mainstream authority are taking the franchise in bullying, harassing, censoring, and threatening those who would prefer to be neutral or contrarian.
  Furthermore, the official enforcers of new Covid policies present more concrete examples of how this dynamic plays out. Recent footage from Australia shows a male cop choking a woman for improperly wearing a mask, and around the world, those obeying the rules are increasingly violent and callous towards those not obeying.
  2. When put into a position of authority people will abuse their power. When put into a subjugated position, people will behave like prisoners.
  The group of prisoners were humiliated, searched, deloused, and locked up, humiliated, taunted, and abused.
  They were issued uniforms, ID numbers had their hair covered with a nylon stocking, and had one ankle bound in a heavy chain, thus masking their personal identity and stripping it away.
  The guards were given no specific training and were free to do whatever they felt was necessary to maintain order. They were dressed in khaki uniforms and sunglasses and given whistles and billy clubs with which to harass the prisoners at all hours of the day.
  Today, with lockdowns around the globe the masses have assumed the role of prisoner, forfeiting their individual identity and discernment. Most people go along to get along, but many are assuming the role of a prison guard, attacking and harassing those who, for whatever reason, choose not to comply with new mandates about masks and other arbitrary Covid restrictions.
  The doctor/patient relationship is perhaps the most economically and psychologically exploited relationship in society today. It is the foundation of big pharma's grip on modern medicine, and it is big business. The influence doctors have over patients is total, and our society is being reshaped with the masses being positioned as patients who must defer all medical decisions to an elite class of approved doctors and experts.
  In a short film, Amazing Polly explains how the medical establishment's invasion into our bodies amounts to torture and is historically one of the most dangerous forms of psychological control. Not only does it disempower the patient, but it also over-glorifies the doctor, who then has an incentive to assert more dominance over the patient.
  We're seeing a manifestation of Munchausen syndrome on a mass level, as the populace is kept ill by palliative care and held hostage by the vaccine industry. Rather than being empowered to protect ourselves by caring for the body and the immune system, we are being told to wait helplessly for a vaccine.
  This is precisely what is happening now as these psychological dynamics are put into play at the mass level. In response to the new and chronic stressors in our lives, we are re-organizing ourselves to conform, be obedient, and be self-policing.
