The Plague – Redux

Albert Camus was a journalist, editor and editorialist, playwright and director, novelist and author of short stories, political essayist and activist. Whether he was a philosopher, historian or prophet can only be determined by finding the context of his collected works and relating them to current affairs and recent history.

The Albert Camus novel, ‘The Plague’, or in French, ‘Le Peste’ was published in 1947. The story is set in the French Algerian city of Oran, where the rather laid back population is reluctantly nudged to deal with a plague outbreak and is placed under city-wide quarantine. The city was overrun with rats instead of the invisible viral particles that allegedly caused a more modern plague and experimental remedy that killed millions.

The passage: Before, During, and After the Event

‘In this respect our townsfolk were like everybody else, wrapped up in themselves: in other words they were humanists: they disbelieved in pestilences. A pestilence isn’t a thing made to man’s measure; therefore we tell ourselves that pestilence is a mere bogy of the mind, a bad dream that will pass away. But it doesn’t always pass away and, from one bad dream to another, it is men who pass away, and the humanists first of all, because they haven’t taken their precautions. Our townsfolk were not more to blame than others; they forgot to be modest, that was all, and thought that everything still was possible for them; which presupposed that pestilences were impossible. They went on doing business, arranged for journeys, and formed views. How should they have given a thought to anything like plague, which rules out any future, cancels journeys, silences the exchange of views. They fancied themselves free, and no one will ever be free so long as there are pestilences.’

The Masses:

It was more than a theory. Mass Formation Psychosis is a concept that came into the forefront of trying to explain the behaviors of populations exposed to the fear based pandemic response to The Great Reset hype psyop the early 2020s.

Mass hysteria or psychosis is a social phenomenon where a group of people develop similar symptoms that do not have an identifiable physical cause much like as can be experienced with any illness. Instead, the symptoms stem from psychological causes. In mass hysteria events, the symptoms occur in two or more people who also share a common belief about what might cause the illness.

Mass hysteria is also called epidemic hysteria, mass psychogenic illness, and mass sociogenic illness. Even though mass hysteria starts in the mind, it can produce real physical symptoms and lead to severe psychological distress to the point of violence and mass murder.

Several factors are thought to contribute to the phenomenon, including groupthink, stress, and social pressure. Some psychologists believe that mass hysteria is a form of groupthink. In cases of mass hysteria, group members all develop a common fear that can spiral into a panic.

Another Exerpt:

During the WORLDWIDE GLOBALIST PREMEDITATED COVID PANDEMIC PLAGUE, millions of people in villiages and cities were locked down in their homes to suffer and worry and die or to ponder whether they sould get the shots…and suffer and worry and die. Some desperate and brave souls ventured out under constant threat of brutal police action. Could the following scene have been played out in real life?

“In the suburbs little was left of the wonted animation between the the long flat streets and the terraced houses; ordinarily people living in these districts used to spend the best part of the day on their doorsteps, but now every door was shut, nobody was to be seen, even the venetian blinds stayed down, and there was no knowing if it was the heat or the plague that they were trying to shut out. In some houses groans could be heard. At first, when that happened, people often gathered outside and listened, prompted by curiosity or compassion. But under the prolonged strain it seemed that hearts had toughened ; people lived beside those groans or walked past them as though they had become the normal speech of men.” – Part Two, The Plague

From The Last Page – The Last Chapter :

“Dr. Rieux resolved to compile this chronicle, so that he should not be one of those who hold their peace but should bear witness in favor of those plague-stricken people; so that some memorial of the injustice and outrage done them might endure; and to state quite simply what we learn in times of pestilence: that there are more things to admire in men than to despise.”

A noble sentiment but one that I cannot share entirely save for the exception of the brave and decent souls that resisted the tyranny of the recent COVID plague project. I can, from my own experience, see and understand that there are more things to despise in men and women than there is to admire.

“In a sane world, vaccines protect the vaccinated. However, on Clown Earth, the unvaccinated must protect the vaccinated by getting vaccinated with the same vaccine that doesn’t protect the vaccinated from the unvaccinated until they are vaccinated against the unvaccinated.” – Minacaputo
