The Cluster B Society
2023-11-14
Psychological dysfunction is now valorized and embedded in our institutions. We need to understand what we’re dealing with.
There is a creeping sense that our society has turned upside-down. Healthy debate is replaced by activist hysterics. Speech is declared violence; violence is excused as speech. Masculinity is condemned as “toxic,” while men in dresses are celebrated in the public square. It feels as if we are in the midst of a society-wide mental breakdown.
...A strange new pattern of psychological dysfunction has infiltrated all our institutions, from humdrum bureaucracies to the highest offices. Wherever we turn, that creeping feeling sets in: our society is sick; our institutions are out of balance; our public life has been consumed by a cluster of disorders that appeal to our worst instincts and derange our most vital social functions.
...
If we are to find a way out, we must understand the peculiar logic and rationality of the Cluster B society. We must learn how to counter emotional falsification and how to say “no” with a renewed voice of authority. We must find a way to restore balance, order, discipline, sanity. If we do not, we will resign ourselves to a world gone mad. The spontaneous life and beauty that are the fruits of a more balanced society will be snuffed out by grim commissars administering a Cluster B pathocracy. Our self-governing regime would be over.
WIND: we live in a male-hating culture where young men in particular have no value. This starts early-on in systemically racist teacher’s union controlled schools, dooming millions of young people (both sexes) to a horrible life. But the young men take it on the chin.
The Cluster B totalitarian lunatics are destroying society (hint they are largely in one party), and even Democrats are warning us eg Michael Shellenberger* who ran for governor of California in 2018 as a Democrat): Shellenberger: Why Democrats Became The Totalitarians They Warned Us About.

And: Higher Ed Has Become a Threat to America:
The biggest threat to our future isn’t climate change, China or the national debt. It is the tyrannical grip that a hopelessly corrupt higher education now has on our national life. If we don’t stop it now, it will eventually destroy the most successful society in world history.
Maybe it already has.
