About this listen

Psychiatrist Mark McDonald diagnoses our country as suffering from a mass delusional psychosis, driven by a pandemic of fear in response to COVID-19.

As the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded, LA-based psychiatrist Mark McDonald grew increasingly concerned by the negative mental health effects he witnessed among his patients - and Americans nationwide. These negative effects - stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, domestic violence, suicidal ideation - were all directly traceable to the climate of fear being stoked by public health authorities and irresponsibly amplified by national media. These fears in turn drove a hysterical overreaction from government in the form of draconian lockdowns and mask and vaccine mandates of questionable value. But the fear did not abate and quickly took on a life of its own, becoming an unstoppable force in all our lives.

At last McDonald began to speak out, explaining that America is actually suffering from two pandemics: a viral one and a psychological one, a “pandemic of fear” that is in many ways more dangerous and damaging than the virus itself. Rooted in the natural anxieties of women on behalf of their children and families, inflamed and amplified by sensationalistic media, and driven over the top by ham-fisted authoritarian measures from those in power, McDonald diagnoses the country at large as suffering from a mass delusional psychosis. This is not a metaphor. The malady itself is very real. Whether we can regain our collective sanity as a society remains to be seen.

Everyone needs to listen to this.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Everyone should listen or read this book. It’s beautifully written and narrated and it will open your eyes about what’s happening in America but also the rest of the world.

I’m a fan from South Africa and I see how the feminism movement has impacted things over here.
We are relatively conservative over here but the woke ideologies have slowly crept in here and more and more women are becoming brainwashed - not wanting children (climate change, “I don’t need no man” stuff)

The covid plandemic has given us a great opportunity to research and find people with similar mindsets - one positive that came from it.

Excellent

A very sane, reasoned viewpoint to counteract fear and slanted narrative. Quite educational and valuable ideas to counter act destructive group think driven by fear and misinformation.

Great read or listen rather…

The author explains the most unique and extensive fraud perpetrated on the American people. He also describes some of the reasons behind people’s acceptance of government overreach.

Spot on

It was good how he broke down how gender roles influenced compliance. The COVID years were pure madness. I respect anyone who was brave enough to see what was happening and speak out. Definitely recommending.
