This is Psychosis, Plain and Simple

Todd Hayen

I just saw a headline that was in line with the prevailing insanity, but it really seemed to be heavier than the usual straw lying on the camel’s back.

“Pupil who questioned classmate ‘identifying as a cat’ called ‘despicable’ by teacher”
Telegraph, 18/6/23

Really?

At the beginning of this global illness I thought running across something like this was funny. Now I don’t. At first I didn’t even believe it could be true, now I am not laughing. What does this mean?

I have become a bit impatient with the manner in which most people are seemingly dealing with this. Of course there are some loud voices of opposition, thank God for them, but even those folks are treating all this like these events are typical results of a new ideology—the “woke” culture.

They don’t even see it as bad as the Nazi ideology, which is often referred to as evil incarnate and has been bestowed the “that really wasn’t human” award back in the ‘30s—National Socialism was an anomaly of human history, and best be forgotten.

There is zero tolerance for Nazis in these modern times, “we’re past that.” But many of us sure are tolerant of this, not only tolerant, but encouraging, and even affirming!

So what is this? What is this “woke” culture that is filled with buzzwords like “equity,” “inclusion,” and “diversity”—all words designed to elicit the response: “well, their heart is in the right place.” Is it? I don’t think so.

This is insanity, plain and simple, and there should be great concern as to what could have possibly “gotten in the water” to distort people’s brains the way they have been distorted.

When I was about 13, I remember reading a chilling article in Life magazine about a small village in France (if my memory serves me). The piece read as a horror story, describing the way people in this town started to go insane, driving their cars into walls, dancing around in the streets naked, painting strange pictures on the sides of houses and buildings.

Seemingly everyone went bonko.

I do not recall the details, but ultimately it was discovered that there was some strange mold found on some bread that nearly everyone had eaten (the town bakery was the distributor, and the mold had some hallucinogenic effect on all who had ingested it.) Now, maybe I made this story up, and now recall it as reality (maybe I had a bit of tainted bread myself) but I remember it had a profound effect on me.

I laid awake that night, thinking of how frightening it would be if I woke up one morning and everyone I knew was loopy like the French folks in this little town. It scared the bejesus out of me. I wondered how that would turn out, and who would save me (assuming I had eaten no bread myself and remained sane.)

Well, folks, welcome to my nightmare. Here we are.

So why hasn’t anyone treated this for what it is?—a mental illness?—and a serious one at that. Why has everyone pussyfooted around this like they are too terrified to step on the toes of those who claim to be the most empathic, the most willing to accept diversity and inclusion?—the most “woke.” That is not what this is. That is not what is happening with the “woke” culture.

This is a clear example of the emperor with no clothes and everyone is terrified they will get their head chewed off if they point out this obvious insanity. Well, not everyone. There are a few loud voices out there thank God, but not enough.

Mattias Desmet gave it a shot. But he was not really describing a true departure from reality, not anywhere near as serious as the acid/mold psychotic trip the French townsfolk experienced from the Life story. For one thing, that was chemically induced.

The psychosis he describes is more like a mass delusion, and deals more with people being swayed by the authoritative powers to be more compliant or complacent due to psychological conditioning. What I am talking about here can only be described as bat shit crazy.

Psychotic. And so psychotic there isn’t much difference between this: believing you are a woman when you are a man, or believing you are a cat when you are a human; than believing you are Napoleon, Cleopatra, or Jesus. Come to think of it, I am sure that if someone “identified” as one of these historic figures, not a questioning word would be said about it. Instead their new identity would be affirmed. That’s crazy.

I remember Bill Maher’s funny quip when he commented, “…I wanted to be a pirate [when I was a kid], thank God nobody took me seriously and scheduled me for eye removal and peg leg surgery.” (Bill’s entire monologue can be found here.)

If you didn’t know what really was happening, and you came across Bill’s comments here, you might wonder what he could be referring to that would be so serious. Certainly, people are not encouraging young children to have surgery as a result of their fantasies.

Yes, they are.

And not only that (which would only pertain to the really serious cases) kids are told, as in the above “cat identity story” that they are somehow defective if they find this psychosis all around them rather odd. A kid is told he is a homophobe because he thinks another kid identifies as a cat? Where is the logic in that? And where is the sanity?

[Note – this extends to able-bodied adults who identify as “paralysed”, voluntarily sit in wheelchairs and seek out surgeons to sever their spinal chords – Ed.]

I am sorry you caught me on a bad day—a day of nearly zero tolerance. As I said earlier, my camel back got broke—all because I’m not woke. [sic] I do have tolerance for people who are confused, delusional, and mentally ill, and even for people who are psychotic, but this is all going way too far in the false names of inclusion, tolerance for diversity, and equity.

The emperor has no clothes, and it is about time we all called a spade a spade and ended this insanity. It is destroying our children for one thing, and undermining our decency as human beings for another.

Ahh Todd your article really resonated, I echo the same concerns and feelings as you. I too look around and wonder what the hell is going on with those walking amongst me. I’m here in the U.K. and the Brits are well known for not wanting to ‘make a fuss’, they’d rather politely keep quiet not to ‘upset the apple cart’ thus allowing this total insanity to proliferate. I live in a rural Welsh community and had perhaps naively assumed this sort of thing was only really happening in places like the crazy metropolis we call London…but nope, I overheard a guy in the supermarket this week saying he was taking his kids out of our local high school because the headmaster had agreed to additional classes at the school for those who did indeed identify as feckin cats, dogs, or any of other gender or inanimate object they so… Read more »

Good post. You are totally right. I’ve said pretty much the same and certainly in the last year have spoken to family and friends that we should regard this as mental illness. Most of them still seem oblivious so I’ve given up to focus on other ways. Incidentally aside from Off G and UK sites there’s a huge talent from US sites and Australia.

Right now, I rate Maria Zeee among the best journalists. Mike Adams and SGT way out there. Even Daniella Cambone on the fringes of mainstream has great financial guests like Gerald Celante etc. With huge respect to Off G I hope all readers here read widely in independent media. Yes, there are one or two exceptions in terms of accuracy etc but folk, if they read widely, will learn much.

Great article here Todd.

Leave these deluded wokelings to it. They are selecting their own genetic lines for oblivion, much like the willing jabbees of the last few years, particularly those who jabbed their kids.

On the other hand, people like me and my wife with a grip on reality will continue to teach our son how to be a man and our daughter how to be a woman, and how to navigate this world of nonsense and bullshit and keep your grip on reality and freedom, with the ultimate aim of continuing our genetic line succesfully.

From your link:

“Thai business mogul Anne Jakrajutatip, a trans activist who is also transgender, bought the Miss Universe Organization last year.”

“I don’t call Miss Universe a beauty pageant anymore,” the JKN Global CEO told Metro Weekly in January. “I call it a women’s empowerment competition.”

So a very rich man who pretends to be a woman has purchased the Miss Universe competition and will promote another man pretending to be a woman as “the most beautiful woman in the universe” and this somehow provides “empowerment” to women?

We are being driven insane by the (((media))) in preparation for a major conflict – they used exactly the same techniques 100 years ago in the so-called Wiemar republic.

People need to start reaching out to each other in their communities and organising to resist conscription, because, in my opinion anyway, it’s coming. And soon.

No psychosis. It’s abuse. It’s a clever way to bully someone. Via moral inversion.
Like this:
Something happens.
Person A tells a lie about it.
Person B refuses the lie and tells the truth.
Person A is rewarded.
Person B is punished.

Person who disrupts by pretending to be a cat is rewarded, person who doesn’t buy it and says the truth is punished. The whole society suffers and begins to fall apart when bullies/liars/cheats/assholes are rewarded and folks standing up for truth/common sense/fairness are punished, over and over and over.

I do have tolerance for people who are confused, delusional, and mentally ill, and even for people who are psychotic

That’s lucky, what with you being a practising psychotherapist and everything

Come on, man – it’s not the kid that’s psychotic – he’s just trying to find a niche in the psychotic environment that he’s being subjected to. It sounds a lot more wholesome than pretending to be a girl, in my humble opinion, and I’m a little confused as to why it has you so exercised?

Be angry at the social engineers and their paymasters, not their unsuspecting victims, because divide and conquer is the whole point of their “games”

Incidentally, the strange occurrence in the French village was a real event, but the cause was not the ergot fungus, but a detachment of CIA officers spiking their bread with the newly discovered drug LSD-25:

History Repeating!

At 27:45 in the Breggin podcast (see earlier post) they discuss the idea of predators and victim blaming – and this then moves on to Freud who Breggin labels as “the greatest, most serious victim-blamer of all time.” Breggin then notes that it was female sociologists and abuse victims who eventually (in the 1970s) deconstructed the Freudian, pseudo-scientific edifice. So now the feminists are once again coming to the rescue of sanity!

We are are suffering an authoritarian-imposed redefinition of the social compact, wherein human experimentation for the purpose of “health security”, “gender (or species) affirming treatment/surgery” is normalized as an obligation serving the benefit of an ‘inclusive’ collectivejust as capitalist exploitation or R2P warfare have become normalized as expressions of freedom and democracy.
The new technocratic pretenders to the authoritarian throne regard ‘governance’ as the science of human livestock management and considers individual human agency/sovereignty as an impediment to ‘progress’.

That’s what the headline is for in part – to trigger you.
Why do you get your fix there?
The undoing or recognition and release of our psychosis or dissociation, is our opportunity to heal. We are never healed alone for separation was the stamp of the split mind so we release to the giving and receiving of love – that we do not manufacture or control.
The use of psychological labelling for manipulating narrative ascendency is no longer aligned with healing but with with a claim to know. The Field of knowing is a true or real relationship – not a person or institution.

“Once there ruled in the distant city of Wirani a king who was both mighty and wise. And he was feared for his might and loved for his wisdom. Now, in the heart of that city was a well, whose water was cool and crystalline, from which all the inhabitants drank, even the king and his courtiers; for there was no other well. One night when all were asleep, a witch entered the city, and poured seven drops of strange liquid into the well, and said, “From this hour he who drinks this water shall become mad.” Next morning all the inhabitants save the king and his lord chamberlain, drank from the well and became mad, even as the witch had foretold. And during that day the people in the narrow streets and in the market places did naught but whisper to one another, “The king is mad. Our king… Read more »

I am sure I didn’t dream that one as an original Twilight zone episode.

I( spoke with the great (late, 2012 world’s oldest rock drummer then, at 90 years, young) Ed Cassidy about a half century ago asking him the origins of his band name Spirit, and he said gleefully that they had got it from Khalil Gibran’s title “Spirits Rebellious” but soon shortened it to a simpler Spirit. ( Led Zeppelin nicked the intro to Stairway to Heaven from their “Taurus” cut as they were touring with Spirit at the time 1967. Opening for them no less. The warm-up band.)

As per this RT article, the EU requires submission to the trans propaganda, and going with the trans agenda equals “democratic and European”

The diplomats’ stern tweets seemed to warn Georgia that its application to join the EU was not guaranteed approval. Following a similar incident in 2021, in which dozens of journalists were injured during an Alt-Info counter-protest outside a Pride event, Brussels’ mission to Georgia excoriated the “direct attacks on Georgia’s democratic and pro-European aspirations” in a letter to its host government, and the bloc took a dim view of Georgia’s human rights record in an evaluation of its EU application last year.

It looks like some LBGQYTJHDT1234+~# group set up a Pride event out in the open air in Georgia, Eastern Europe (barely), of all places, and who wudda known, it got taken down by thousands of nationalists! (Nobody was hurt according to the article)

I reckon the appeal of the cat-kid stuff may be the same as that for covid. And will result in the same avalanche of “covid sufferer” chancers i.e. there is a significant portion of the public who don’t even ask if any of this is credible but just think (and probably with justification) “Well what can I make out of this latest meme?” They have been given the signal to play act and they grab with relish. “Oh my God I’m suffering from covid!”, “I have long covid!” etc. and now “I identify as a tribble from Star Trek!” – all to gain attention and possibly claim some “compensation”.

How’s this for an amazing story. In a town not far away some 45 years old fat greasy guy with too much back hair was questioned by an attendant why he was entering the girls change room, at the pool, with a boner in his budgie smugglers. He was also sweating profusely. He explained that he identifies as a 12 year old girl. “Oh” said the attendant correctly and waved him in. The girls, according to the report, we’re stopped by the attendant as they ran out screaming about the now naked man/12 year old girl. He pushed the girls back into the change room warning them that they will be arrested for not respecting this person identity. He noticed one of them was an airplane.
The 12 year old was later presented with a Meddle of Affirmation and Bravery

The total number of military and civilian casualties in World War 2 was 56 million, with an additional 28 million deaths from war-related disease and famine.

Though Ford, GM, Standard Oil and IBM actively assisted Germany’s rearmament and military operations, no Allied government ever exacted recourse against these blue chip companies for aiding and abetting our so called “enemies.”

In a world where these same corporations can self identify as paragons of western democracy, without the slightest hint of irony, then in that same world, boys can be girls and girls can be cats. The psychosis of the ruling death cult is not new. It just metastasizes into different mutations, so that it can continue to inflict blood sacrifices.

I don’t think people who “identify” as something other than that which they are are crazy or deranged or ill in some way.

These people are straight forward evil liars! They know full well that politics is on their side and now they are coming into their power and can bully other people, just like the nobodies who came into their power during the fascist Covid era, and who denounced non-mask wearers or thought it was just fine that the unvaxxed were excluded from everyday life and denied medical treatment.

Two of the most incisive books I read in my early twenties were M Scott Peck’s The Road Less Travelled and People of the Lie where the human condition of evil was analysed and boiled down to pretense, denial and lying.

Hi Todd, I do not envy your situation, that is, being normal in the “new normal” Canada. I left Montreal about a year ago and went to Florida with my wife and our dog. Immediately, once I had crossed the state line I could feel the difference. It was as if I had been transported back in time to the year 2019, before all the craziness began. Our governor likes to say that Florida is the state where woke goes to die, and in part I agree with him. He, at least, is fighting back. But in California or New York or Michigan or Illinois they aren’t fighting against the woke madness, they are embracing it.

Let there be no doubt about it, it is a mental illness and it’s serious, you’re right.

All this seems to be just the tip of the iceberg for me. I can literally walk around in town one week (Berlin in this case, but Amsterdam, for instance, would make no difference at all), and almost all i see is people engaged with their smartphones – staring at them, typing and swiping, making calls, literally everywhere they are at the moment. Or using them to listen to something with headphones on or with earplugs in. In a way, they appear to me like they are walking through town with their digitally represented world being more real than the things going on around them – like everything around them is a movie they barely bother to pay attention to. Tattoos everywhere. Sunglasses instead of eyes. An omnipresent attitude of being aloof, of being superior. A narrow range of clothes, just being combined in »individual« ways.

The people behind this are human shells under control of non-human entities attempting to corrupt the human species so as to create a master race and a slave race. From another POV it represents the terminal phase of the spiritual disease of Americanised societies that native people call wetiko. The cat incident here is linked to “furries” which is an internet subculture of adolescents (and not only) being turned on by anthropomorphic animals, and dressing up as furry animals, which is a result of decades of Disney and other types of brainwashing for children. It is plainly clear this culture is ripe for a cull and is doing quite well in culling itself by promoting surgical or chemical sterilisation. The abrhamic false god’s command to procreate freely and run over the Earth isn’t working out so well. Having children now looks more like a mug’s game than ever! We are… Read more »

The secret lies in the fact that we are all a bit crazy. The ‘elite’ apparently knows this and uses it eagerly. Why are we all a little crazy? Well. This is partly caused by the use of language. Language creates a reality that is not actually reality. We have become degenerate through the use of language and we think we are ‘more’ than animals or nature. But we are also no longer united with nature. We have become thinking beings. Language also reminds me of Adam and Eve. God spoke you can do this, but you can’t do that one thing. The devil, on the other hand, spoke you can. Eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. You can compare this tree with the language itself.

I’d suggest our teachers and parents find ways to encourage young children to learn to read, and keep a library of first-rate classic literature at home.

Also minimize the Barbie dolls and keep iPhones at bay.

Without too many distractions in the home, kids will just go to the books out of idle curiosity, and there they will familiarize themselves calmly and naturally with the answers to many of the world’s most pressing problems.

No. It won’t be easy in today’s sick society.
But if parents care about their children’s future (which of course is no longer a given), they’ll make the effort.

If this is not done, we are going to see our children and grandchildren go up in smoke, and they’ll blame us for it.

This man you quoted knew the world was profoundly insane, corrupt and perverted back by the start of the 20th century. However, most people didn’t see it then nor decades later….. Or even centuries before. Simply because most grew up accustomed to the insanity and perversion by being spoon fed, with a smile and apparently caring attitude, the excretory products of the cultures that bred them. Nowadays, the insanity, evil and perversion has quite suddenly taken another, perhaps more intense, flavor. And some are now retching with dusgust at what they are now being fed. But is this last flavor truly more evil than the previous ones? The newer generations seem to be getting accustomed to the new trends quite quickly and, largely, without complaints.

“At its fullest development, fascism redrew the frontiers between private and public, sharply diminishing what had once been untouchably private. It changed the practice of citizenship from the enjoyment of constitutional rights and duties to participation in mass ceremonies of affirmation and conformity. It reconfigured relations between the individual and the collectivity, so that an individual had no rights outside of community interest. It expanded the powers of the executive – party and state – in a bid for total control. Finally, it unleashed aggressive emotions hitherto known in Europe during war or social revolution.”
–      Robert Paxton, The Anatomy of Fascism 2004

“…by its facilitation of capitalism’s construction of the totalitarianism of the Global Biosecurity State – woke is not liberal, and it certainly isn’t socialist: woke is fascist.”

Many people, including the author, are trying hard to establish that the very obedient, self delusional and self destructive behaviour we are seeing around the globe, in areas of health, climate and geopolitics, is a kind of mental disorder, or intoxication. The author mentions Mattias Desmet as being among these. But Mattias disagrees, as he writes in this article speaking of the term “mass formation psychosis” https://mattiasdesmet.substack.com/p/why-robert-malone-didnt-make-up-the?utm_source=profile&utm_medium=reader2 “When I explained I didn’t [call it “mass formation psychosis”] because I think it’s counterproductive from a pragmatic, intellectual and ethical perspective to use a psychiatric term like “psychosis” to describe social phenomena, Robert [Malone] immediately agreed and has since used the term “mass formation” instead.” If we think of the global phenomenon of conformity and duty-bound obedience as a disease effecting billions of people, we run the very grave risk of the MIC/Pfizer/WEF/Gov imposing a new vaccine on us all as a… Read more »

“Pride Month” – now apparently extended into “Pride Season” in Canada – seems to me to be a deliberately provocative device to stir up that old “culture wars” meme and thus perpetuate the divide-and-rule policies of the parasite class. Back in the 70s gays were not so welcome as now and were often the butt of jokes (“poofs” and “fairies” etc.) Right now though frankly no-one gives a shit. Which I take to be good. But for tolerance to work, there should be no emphasis. Your sex life is your own business. But is that what “Pride” marches are about? No. They rub it in your face. And they are being encouraged to do so. For what it’s worth, my theory about the transgender crap is that the gay matter wasn’t stirring up enough feeling. Nobody cared any more. Solution?

The fungus, ergot, infects cereal crops such as rye and can cause what’s known as ergotism, poisoning that can have similar symptoms to ingesting LSD. However, ingesting LSD — tripping — doesn’t necessarily cause people to behave weirdly, that’s popular mythology. Its more a case of ‘weird people behave more weirdly’ — you have to have a predisposition to such behavior. There’s a headline article on CNN today that talks about “The Myth of Baby Boomers History” which reminds us that phenomenon like the hippies of the 1960s and ‘wokenss’ among GenX tend to be more fashion statements about a minority rather than reflecting the mindset of the majority. That’s true — back in the day of alternative this and that, ‘revolution’ and so on this was invariably the outpourings of an excessively vocal, but unfortunately newsworthy, minority. I suspect — based on my own adult children — that GenX… Read more »
