Sincere speech is the remedy to mass formation (and loneliness)

Dr. Mattias Desmet believes sincere speech and truth telling are the best wats to resist tyranny.

In a fascinating discussion with host, Zahra Sethna, the esteemed professor, author, and clinical psychologist, recounts the taxonomy of mass formation – from the physical masses of the 16th century to the creation of the ‘lonely masses’ we see today. This is Dr. Desmet at his very best – sincere, frank, unedited – not only recapping the purposes of propaganda for control and how that puts us on the cusp of a global totalitarian state, but also what he believes to be the solutions. This is a beautiful conversation you don’t want to miss.
