Don’t underestimate the anxiety of Covid, CBDCs, jabs, censorship, Great Reset & more

The world has always been an anxious place. The events of the past three years, coupled with real-time communications, have escalated things beyond the breaking point.
Sure, it’s normal to deal with scenarios that inspire uncertainty. But when it becomes chronic, very few of us can discern which dangers are real and which are only perceived.
We’re living within a collective anxiety disorder that transcends the artificial barriers we like to imagine are carved in stone. Do you know those memes about having to prepare for an hour just to make a phone call? They wouldn’t exist so widely if there wasn’t a universality to them.
Our culture markets fear and we line up — and trample others — like it’s a flat-screen TV on Black Friday. What we fear might be a mythical virus or a digital ID. It could be deplorables that make us anxious; it could be wokesters.
The causes (real and imagined) differ. The results do not.
To keep things very simple, here’s basically what happens inside the minds of frightened, anxious humans regardless of their political stances:
- We perceive fear in a dysfunctional way
- Our memories are stored in such a manner as to perpetuate more dread
- Our capacity for logical, rational thinking is overwhelmed by chronic anxiety
- Stress hormones relentlessly course through our bloodstream
- We’re stuck in fight-or-flight mode and lose the ability to make well-informed decisions

Within our hive minds, we do our particular versions of black pilling. We doom scroll, build up hatred for the “other,” and feed the anxiety disorder. The beliefs differ. The pain does not.
If you were to recognize that you share such experiences with virtually everyone around you, would it inspire empathy, patience, and understanding?

The System Isn’t Broken, It’s Fixed

Fact #1: Chronic stress can lead to an impairment of cognitive functioning. Fact #2: Manipulative abuse can lead to an impairment of cognitive functioning. When a human being experiences ongoing anxiety, their prefrontal cortex will generate increasingly higher levels of cortisol. Cortisol is a stress hormone that helps us deal with threats and danger.

Fact #1: Chronic stress can lead to an impairment of cognitive functioning.
Fact #2: Manipulative abuse can lead to an impairment of cognitive functioning.
When a human being experiences ongoing anxiety, their prefrontal cortex will generate increasingly higher levels of cortisol. Cortisol is a stress hormone that helps us deal with threats and danger. If stress — real or perceived — becomes chronic, we can get stuck in this state of high alert. The brain cannot differentiate between real and fake news. It initiates and sustains the body’s stress response for as long as you feel anxious, tense, worried, or scared.
For some examples of ongoing anxiety and chronic stress, consider these facts of life in the Land of Opportunity™:
- The projected overall 2021 poverty rate is 13.7 percent of Americans.
- 78 percent of American workers are living paycheck to paycheck.
- Roughly 30 million Americans are without health insurance.
- Americans collectively hold about $81 billion in medical debt.
- Approximately 325,000 Americans (age 12 or older) are sexually assaulted each year — about 1 every 93 seconds. As for those under 12, 1 in 5 girls and 1 in 20 boys is a victim of reported child sexual abuse. Keyword: reported.
- The top three causes of death in the U.S. would be mostly preventable in a society that included economic stability, access to quality health care, protection of the environment, an emphasis on healthy eating habits, and even a modicum of humanity. Instead, each year, heart disease kills about 650,000, cancer kills 600,000, and the third leading cause of death is (wait for it) medical error — taking out at least 250,000 Americans per year. The powers-that-be test their corporate medicines and procedures on us while granting themselves immunity from liability.
According to the American Psychological Association:
- 63 percent of Americans reported that the future of the nation is a significant source of stress
- 62 percent were stressed about money
- 61 percent were stressed about work
- 51 percent were stressed about violence and crime
- 43 percent were stressed about healthcare
Fifty-six percent said that the mere act of staying informed by following the news causes them intense stress. Three out of four Americans reported experiencing at least one stress symptom in the last month — and this survey was taken BEFORE the pandemic and ensuing lockdowns.
Prices go up. Rents go up. The number of billionaires goes up. Everything goes up… except wages and quality of life. I could go on but you get the idea. Everyday life in the Home of the Brave™ — by definition — keeps the vast majority of its residents in a state of deep distress and high anxiety.

High anxiety = high cortisol. High cortisol negatively impacts our executive functioning, e.g.
- Inability to pay attention
- Decrease in visual perception
- Feeling agitated and unorganized
- Memory loss
- Loss of emotional regulation and rational thinking
This explains why so many of us jammed into supermarkets to fight each other for the right to hoard inordinate amounts of toilet paper when the dangerous and unnecessary pandemic lockdowns were implemented.
When stress is chronic and cortisol is raging, we make exponentially more mistakes. We struggle to complete tasks, we lose concentration, we forget basic information, and we repeat ourselves in conversation. Since life itself in this corrupt culture is a source of relentless anxiety, most of us live in an altered state of inefficiency and confusion. However, this reality is so normalized that it’s become invisible and we often think we’ve got it good. After all, look at all these neat gadgets we own and get to stare at all day, every day.
Think about it: We’re alive because our ancestors were the ones who used anxiety and hyper-vigilance to survive. The more casual or reckless early humans weren’t around long enough to pass on their genes. So, here we are — hard-wired with a hair-trigger fight-or-flight response — and we’re stuck in a world in which simple acts like breathing air or visiting a doctor are unhealthy or possibly lethal. Translation: We are the ideal subjects for a grand social experiment.

If you were a member of the elite class — or the proverbial 1% — wouldn’t you prefer that the masses were pliable and easily controlled? Why wouldn’t you rig circumstances in such a way as to keep billions of potential challengers off-balance, frightened, and divided? What better way to maintain power and control than to implement an insidious form of group manipulation? It’s what cult leaders do. It’s what domestic abusers do. It’s what dictators do. And what are those in power if not abusive and narcissistic sociopaths?
I know, the easiest and most alluring path for you right now is to dismiss me as a “conspiracy theorist.” Life is far more palatable if you choose denial; if you choose to believe those on top are not abusing you. You may even tell yourself that people never do things like create an oppressive, unfair system just to keep their fellow humans subdued and passive. If that’s your premise, let’s explore it for a few minutes.
Would the folks who run things in God’s Country™ ever coerce people through abusive behaviors? You might want to ask the detainees at the U.S. prison in Guantanamo Bay. As reported by the New York Times, the U.S. hired “two C.I.A. contract psychologists” to create a program that used “violence, isolation and sleep deprivation on more than 100 men in secret sites, some described as dungeons.” Tactics included waterboarding and cramming men into small confinement boxes. The idea here was to induce so much chronic stress, it would break their resistance.
Human Rights Watch has documented other devious and abusive red-white-and-blue techniques paid for by your hard-earned tax dollars, e.g. mock execution by asphyxiation, stress positions, hooding during questioning, deprivation of light and auditory stimuli, and use of detainees’ individual phobias (such as fear of dogs) to induce debilitating stress.
The Land of the Free™ incarcerates more people than any other nation in the world. The Center for Constitutional Rights reports that such prisoners are “repeatedly abused by their guards, fellow prisoners, and an ineffective and apathetic system. They suffer beatings, rape, prolonged solitary confinement, meager food rations, and frequently-denied medical care.” All in the name of punishment and pacification.
Perhaps the best comparison for America’s brutal molding of its citizens is domestic abuse. The United Nations defines domestic abuse as “a pattern of behavior in any relationship that is used to gain or maintain power and control over an intimate partner.” Read that again: a pattern of behavior in any relationship that is used to gain or maintain power and control.
Abusers, says the UN, use actions or threats of action to influence others. This includes any behaviors that frighten, intimidate, terrorize, manipulate, hurt, humiliate, blame, injure, or wound someone. Are you frightened by the lack of financial stability? Are you terrorized by the threat of sexual assault or injury by medical error? Does the possibility of eviction, homelessness, and poverty manipulate you into making choices you abhor, choices that violate your deepest values and individual freedoms?

If you declare “the system is broken,” just about everyone will agree with you for one reason or another. But what if it’s not broken? What if it’s running exactly as it’s designed to run? A minuscule percentage of humans make the rules and thus reap virtually all the material rewards. The rest of us suppress our desires, our individuality, and our dreams in the name of survival — in its most meager sense. We’re wounded and intimidated into submission, too programmed and fearful to even think about rebellion… let alone solidarity with all the other victims.
Pro tip: All it takes to flip the script is for each of you to change your mind. It doesn’t have to be like this. In fact, it can’t be like this if we take off the blinders and see the ugliness of reality.
