Hello World! Recently, there was a case out of Germany of a YouTuber spreading Tourette's online. Seems impossible, and it is. What he was spreading wasn't Tourette's. It was MASS HYSTERIA! What's unique is that it was spread online rather than in person. Hysteria is terrifying and complicated, particularly mass hysteria. Also, I don't know how much it matters if a person's illness is caused by their psychology or caused by an organic illness. If they're ill, they're ill. That's not the point of this particular video, but it needs to be said, and I didn't say it in this video, instead choosing to rag on them. Here is the paper if you want to read it thoroughly, but I must warn you, it will annoy and depress you unless you're a monk or a doctor or something: https://academic.oup.com/brain/advance-article/doi/10.1093/brain/awab316/6356504 Also, upon rewatching Pontypool last night, I see that it is brilliant and not goofy as I implied in the video. When I first saw it, I was very young and didn't consider it as an allegory for mass hysteria. It may be available on YouTube to watch for free. You didn't hear that from me. Let me know what you think about this case or Pontypool. Also, are you noticing any more mass hysteria spread online? I certainly am. #janzimmermann #masshysteria #socialmedia ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAfT-s4WHaU

Hello, Good People. Hope you are all enjoying our bizarre times. Everyone might be crazy, but you can't beat the smoothies. Today, we go into the shadow with Jung and Wetiko with Paul Levy and see how we fit into all of this. Of course, this is to explain the culture war, the stinking cancer that is our culture war, because everything must come back to the culture war. It is 2022 after all. Maybe instead of the culture war defining us, we define the culture war and turn the tables, but that's later. This is just about the darkness! If I glossed over anything, ask me. Don't be shy. #shadow #jung #wetiko ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmATm_RkbVw
