I fear no evil Episode 1 - An Interview with Dr. Mark McDonald

Dr Mark McDonald is a board certified psychiatrist in both adult psychiatry and a second certification in adolescent and child psychiatry. He is based in Los Angeles, California, where he has a private practice. He is the author of the books “” The United States of Fear” and “Freedom from Fear”

In this episode we discuss the following:

-Once Covid-19 started in LA in early 2020, and the lockdown and social isolation measures began, Dr McDonald began to see a change in his patients, and he gives an example of one such patient.

-Dr McDonald gives his opinion on the US Government’s Covid-19 measures in 2020, in particular, the effect of the school closures in California, which he describes as the single greatest harmful decision throughout the last 3 years.

-Dr McDonald points out that we knew about early treatment for Covid-19 from the beginning and gives the example of Dr Brian Tyson and his successful treatment of 10 000 patients. Had the US adopted this approach, 80% of the deaths would have been avoided.

-Masking, why are parents putting masks on their children. How this relates to the parent’s anxiety and fear more than anything else.

-Dr McDonald used the term “mass delusional psychosis” to describe what was going on in early 2020, and is still going on. He was unaware at that time that Prof Mattias Desmet was coming to a similar conclusion. He called it “mass formation”.

-We discuss the tribal nature of some of the Covid response.

-He defines the cabal of 3, the politicians, the media and the corporations, and the effect they have had during the Corona years and before this crisis.

-Dr McDonald explains how fear is the main catalyst.

-We discuss who are the dissenters, who are the people that have not fallen into the mass delusional psychosis.

-Dr McDonald had said in his book “The United States of Fear” that Americans have begun to take pleasure in seeing other Americans suffer. Their fear has evolved into sadism.

-Dr McDonald point out that those on the left make the mistake of thinking that evil comes from the environment, but evil comes from within our own hearts. This is a war for our own survival as a species.

-The snitches get riches program. Where “ambassadors’’ report their neighbours to a hotline and are compensated. Citizens informing on each other.

-We compare the response to Covid of the Anglophone countries with the Slavic countries. Dr McDonald talks about the people of the Slavic countries not trusting government and being religious, and relying on community and family. How this shows in their resistance to the Covid measures.

-Fascism is the convergence of corporatism and government. But which country has the most fascist government at the moment?

-Dr McDonald discusses the new bill AB2098 which was passed in California, the Medical Misinformation Bill. What affect will this have on the practice of medicine in California?

-Dr McDonald’s new book is Freedom from Fear. He wrote it to explain the addiction of fear and how to overcome it.
