Mangione-CEO Assassin ….$300K Fan Defense Fund… Mass Formation Psychosis -American Youth’s EAT THE RICH Hysteria

Mass Formation Psychosis —Mob Psychology driven by an irrational perception based on societal tensions that are focused on an individual or group as a means to alleviate the frustration in absence of control or helplessness

?

With the advancement of the Age of the Enlightenment there became this conceptualization of the individual from the point of being a single sovereign rational entity

Extricating the outer wrapper of the collective Tribal Wrappings became the measure of the Modern Man/Women that we see in further advancement with the Behaviorists along with 20th Century Psychoanalysis

The “I”.. became the center of this individualized mindset

Locke, Burke et al expounded at great lengths about the Rights of Man

Our Constitutional Framer were deeply influenced by this concept

?

Thus the quest for individual sovereignty with all of the benefits and detriments that independence affords became our society’s standard

?

The only challenge was the inequality of that society which had huge biases that created privilege for some while great hardship for others

These conditions were the source of so much of the societal tension of the previous three hundred years

That erupted in revolutions, wars and genocides all propelled by this Mass Formation Hysteria

One does not have to proceed very far back in history

…. than Germany of the 1930’s to observe the worse of Mass Formation

– Pure Anti-Semitic Hysteria

?

With the Allies’ Victory in WW II the aftermath was this belief

…that Never Again would humanity be allowed to commit such acts

?

Its interesting that ninety years later the Never Again mantra

….along with many people of my age who are still alive

….appears to be the only thing preventing this from happening again

We are a generation with a crystal-clear view of

..What’s Right and What’s Wrong

?

Anti-Semitism is rampant in our younger generations

..so too is this Xenophobia which just like the Jews of the 1930’s dehumanizes those as seen as the other or outsiders to a lesser state of existence

?

As one local young man said the other day

…what’s going to happen to a poor white man like me when all you foreigners are getting all the good jobs and making all the big money?

?

When I pointed out that these people had worked especially hard to credential themselves to a place where they are the New Expert Class in America

…far more qualified than most for these top positions

It was simply a matter of Adam Smith- Capitalism at work

Supply and Demand – the Cream Rises to the Top

?

He became angrier – stating how unfair this advantage was

…these Rich People were living the Good Life while his family did without

?

I would not let him off the hook….

By what form of merit do you deserve the same?

These “outsiders” people played by the same rules and in the case of the “foreigner’ had even more impediments than you did

You must measure this not by clumping people into faceless groups but view this on a case by case circumstance

Your thought process is irrational, almost hysterical as it has no factual basis

The Jews of Germany were at the top of their society – the best in many professions

Was history repeating itself?

?

The last ten years has seen a huge divide in American Society whose trajectory is troubling indeed!

?

America’s Leadership Class has so utterly failed everyone

..their unfettered greed comes at the expense of quality of life and opportunity for the average citizen

The Leadership Class also exhibits the same dehumanization along with as we’ve just seen in Mr. Zuckerberg Trumpian Conversion a total absence of ethics

?

What has emerged is this “psychological analogue” in which both the Leadership Class and the Citizen Class have dehumanized each other

As I stated …..Not so far off from the Germany of the 1930’s

These societal tensions are raw and just beneath the surface all the time

Trump’s Nov 5th Victory is this Third Estate last gasp hope of righting a corrupt- failing system

?

Trump gets this picture in its entirety

…..and he is racing with all expediency to bring radical change for he wisely observes the societal gap and its endemic mental illness

?

Trump has brought forward a different slice of the American Pie

..what I call the New American Expert Class that are not part of the Leadership Class

…..just like I told the local man

– these people have credentialing that is superior to most everyone else

What makes them perfect for the task at hand

…they share that same contempt as the Citizen Class for the corrupt Leadership Class

?

They are racing against time to decouple their hold on American Society

?

Eat The Rich which comes from the times of the French Revolution is the catch all for the economic angst that most feel—especially our youth

?

Mangione’s assassination of the United Health Care CEO is seen as a heroic action of redemption

…totally justified to the evils of a Detached Elite that are parasites feeding on American Society

?

The CEO's name is completely irrelevant to the discuss within the context of Mass Formation Psychosis

…he is but a symbolic image of the harm that his Leadership Class has brought upon American Society

?

Add to this mix the American Public love of the Culture of Celebrity

Luigi – Young-Rich- Handsome – Ivy League checks all the boxes of what Eye Candy we like to follow – Cult of Personality

Connecting all the boxes here leads us to this place of something very pathological

?

The images On-Line of Mangione depicted like some saint with a halo speaks deeply to the dire mission Team Trump has on its hands to turnaround this perception gap in American Society

The Citizen Class are on the final measure of hope

All the trappings of the Enlightenment Age - Rational Society are on life support

?

300K USD is not chump change and who knows if privately there is a lot cash on the table

?

Still worse in this New York Courtroom

?– seating a jury is going to be a challenge

…its difficult to believe that anyone does not have a bias in this case

Older folks—He’s a killer caught on video

Younger folks—He’s got mitigating circumstances

?These mitigating circumstance coupled with defense psycho-experts make the prosecution task a heavy lift

?

Mangione’s Case provides further clarification of something immutably broken in the American Psyche

?

Much more with our younger generations ?who when I discuss this

….at first-- tell me that it’s a bad thing

BUT

….then they launch into a series of rational arguments to tell me why it okay

?

I often wonder if that’s what happened in Germany

….the Steins were a good family

BUT

…as you know they did this and that – like all Jews

?

We live in the reality of a most slippery slope of Right and Wrong Perceptions

?

Within the Tribal Culture prior to Age of the Enlightenment

…..such discussions would find no place to be even entertained

As we are invested in our belief of the imaging of Modern Man/Women Rational Sovereignty

…..have we advanced or regressed from our former Tribal Selfhood which possessed a much more flattened hierarchy that were relationally attuned to the responsible in those positions of leadership?

?

Mangione’s Case reveals the darkest side of the American Psyche that more than being swept under the rug must be dragged out into the sunlight to be completely examined in a moment of cathartic healing
