Descriere magazin:
The world is in the grips of mass formation--a dangerous, collective type of hypnosis--as we bear witness to loneliness, free-floating anxiety, and fear giving way to censorship, loss of privacy, and surrendered freedoms. It is all spurred by a singular, focused crisis narrative that forbids dissident views and relies on destructive groupthink. Desmet\'s work on mass formation theory was brought to the world\'s attention on The Joe Rogan Experience and in major alternative news outlets around the globe.

He cautions against the dangers of our current societal landscape, media consumption, and reliance on manipulative technologies and then offers simple solutions--both individual
