| Anybody who knows me will tell you that I am an absolute lunatic when it comes to my fascination with crowds, crowd theories, crowd behaviors, how people systematically lose any kind of sense. | |
| How did during Nazi Germany, how did so many people look the other way? | |
| Right now, with what's going on in Israel and Palestine and Gaza, how do so many people say, ah, well, what are you going to do? | |
| Hey! | |
| I mean, I... | |
| And it's not that they're acting individually, they're part of a package deal, so to speak. | |
| Now, Gustave Le Bon, of course, you know, he wrote the Bible, the crowd, a study of the popular mind. | |
| This is something which is so, so important. | |
| He warned of this thing that happens in crowds, this dehumanization. | |
| And we see it everywhere. | |
| And we see it now in these scrums, specifically via social media powwows and murmurations and the like. | |
| There is something interesting. | |
| The unsettling aspect of this Taylor Lorenz-esque kind of lunacy and the public reaction to Thompson's murder, his public execution, is the romanticization of the assassin. | |
| Now, we've seen this throughout history. | |
| Billy the Kid, Jesse James, John Dillinger, you know, Bonnie and Clyde, John Gotti, depending on what. | |
| Surveillance footage of this gunman dude on TikTok, they called him Gore. | |
| He's been turned into memes and videos liking him to pop culture and heroes. | |
| Listen to this. | |
| One user quipped, quote, eco-conscious assassin riding a bike to reduce his carbon footprint. | |
| Truly a man of the people. | |
| He's a killer! | |
| Remember they did this with Ted Bundy. | |
| They did this with other folks who they thought was dashing. | |
| I mean, this is incredible. | |
| This is incredible. | |
| The same thing that sometimes will lure women. | |
| Remember, Ramirez, the Night Stalker, and others, and the Menendez brothers. | |
| What is this? | |
| This glorification has been referred to by sociologist Emil Durkheim called Anomi. | |
| A-N-O-M-I-E. | |
| A state of moral normlessness where societal values erode. | |
| In this anomie, individuals are struggling to find meaning and they turn to radical or destructive behaviors. | |
| And the romanticization of the assassin underscores this shift, this seismic shift, which acts as I guess the countenancing of violence reframed as expressions of rebellion. | |
| Look at the Antifa folks. | |
| Look at what they did. | |
| Look how, because George Floyd was considered to be worthy of their angst and anger and the like, they just... | |
| I mean, what they did was incredible. | |
| But remember though, if the scrum that we're talking about targets someone that you admire, You know, say a Republican or CEO or anybody that's not rad left or woke, that's okay. | |
| If those are the ones targeted, but not vice versa. | |
| You reverse the object of the wrath, you know, make them a Biden or Kamala or some LGBTQIA, whatever, the target. | |
| And then there'll be calls for censorship and demonetizing and deplatforming and even prosecution will follow. | |
| How dare you? | |
| Misinformation, disinformation, hate speech, white separatism, white nationalism. | |
| I mean, this is what's going on. | |
| This anti-social media, these platforms play a critical role in amplifying what appears to be this, I guess, these psychological phenomena described by Le Bonin Durkheim, | |
| especially when I love this, when they're manned by these weird, mean kids, these ensorcelled, antisocial incels, you know, high on their psych meds and resentful and angry. | |
| I read today that in Washington, now this is kind of related, 6%, only 6% of the federal workforce actually has people show up. | |
| Washington is a ghost town. | |
| And it's this new group, these folks, where humor and, I mean, this is incredible. | |
| Taylor Lorenz on Blue Sky, as I call it, not Blue Sky, exemplifies this dynamic. | |
| While condemning the healthcare system, this benighted moonbat's framing of Thompson's death, As a consequence of some kind of systemic failure? | |
| This is nuts! | |
| That it's kind of legitimized by the crowd's anger. | |
| Must be something to it, she figures, if everybody's angry. | |
| This is a very demented person. | |
| Very evil. | |
| Very strange. | |
| And also, this is a different issue here, the role of these influencers and public figures in inciting, not influencing anybody. | |
| Now, I don't want to do anything to shut down social media by any stretch of the imagination. | |
| That's not what I'm interested in. | |
| But what I am interested in is finding specifically how is it that these people can act this way without batting an eye. | |
| This shift, this weird, Restructuring a morality has profound implications. | |
| Keep in mind something. | |
| This is what Gustave Lebon said. | |
| I love this. | |
| The crowd is only powerful for destruction. | |
| If we allow this mob mentality to continue, if we don't confront the psychological, the pathologies of these folks, If educators and policy makers and politicians and social media folks and doctors and lawyers and educators, if they don't exercise their responsibility to maybe promote critical thinking and empathy, we're done. | |
| We are effed, as the kids say. | |
| So let me ask you a question. |
