According to Encyclopedia Brittanica, "Stockholm syndrome describes the psychological condition of a victim who identifies with and empathizes with their captor or abuser and their goals."
Yourbrain,health describes it like this: "Stockholm syndrome, also known as terror-bonding and trauma-bonding, is a condition that causes hostages and abuse victims to develop a psychological alliance with their captor or abuser while in captivity or while being abused."
I'm not joking. Do you think it is possible that all the things the DS has promoted - the violence of last summer, the constant MSM fear porn over coof, the CDC/Fauci constantly changing what they say people should do - was actually purposely designed to be traumatic and abusive of the American people, to trigger a "Stockholm Syndrome" response where the normies doggedly follow their abusers (DS, MSM, CDC etc) and adopt their goals in order to achieve some feeling of safety?
It is very hard for all of us to understand why our normie friends and family go into total vapor lock the minute we try to tell them about what is really going on. Their refusal to consider any other possibilities than what the MSM tells them is so adamant and unyielding, it seems they must be under some sort of psychological trauma or control.
It may be a symptom of Mass Psychosis
Excellent vid. Thanks for the contribution.
I don't know, but I stunned one tonight. Old school liberal, super crunchy hippie earth mother type, nattering on about how the rhetoric against Biden was unfair blah, blah blah, well, I hardly get involved with liberals I know personally online, so I spoke up and said, no, he knew about it, explained his phone call with Ghani, and then I said, at this point, they're ALL dirty, BOTH sides. She was like, yeah, I don't agree with such and such, but that's pretty messed up. I think the tactic of saying both sides suck, let's clean it ALL out, snapped her out if whatever spell she was under. After all, she didn't actually like Biden to begin with, she just hated Trump. I effectively moved that mental block, I was shocked it worked, but a light bulb went off.. my first victory in the field. I didn't even mention Trump, because he's out of the picture now, and that was her big block.

No. They are unaware of any world or motives outside of the lowest common denominator that is put in front of their face
Slaves embracing their chains...
What? You mean where they want to be raped by Muslim invaders?
Yes, evidently, many normies indeed totally have that.
No. You would have to know and recognise you are being abused from the beginning.
Normies don't know they've been hoodwinked and stabbed in the back.
Where in the definition of Stockholm Syndrome does it say you have to know and recognize you are being abused? The idea is that, when someone is constantly abused in a situation they can't escape, some people start to identify and rely on their abuser, when other, healthier people would reject the abuse and the abuser, just as Patriots reject the lies and attempted intimidation from the DS.
I'm more going along with the case that gave its name to the syndrome.
The part that makes it stand out is the fact that the people came to empathize with their captors.
The thing is, is that they got to know their captors while knowing they were captives.
The people who are being abused by their government don't know it.
What we have is brainwashed people who don't know that it is the people who they trust(politicians/media) who is abusing them.
There are obvious differences, but the question I was raising was whether DS people have learned from these captive situations, that threatening, constantly putting people in fear, changing what they tell them to do to keep them constantly off-center and not knowing what is going on or what will happen to them if their "captors" get upset, would trigger a similar psychological response where a certain percentage of the American people - who are being abused, no question - in order to deal with it mentally and emotionally, just adopt the goals and agendas of the people tormenting them. That was the discussion I was hoping to raise.
Amazing Polly did a whole video on this last year. She showcased a document that was written decades ago (can't remember by who) that outlined exactly how to break down peoples' resistance. It detailed step-by-step everything that's been done in terms of the virus response, including isolating people (that's the only one I remember). I don't remember the name of the video and no longer have her website link, or I'd share it.
Thanks, Taffy. I love Amazing Polly, and can find her on Bitchute or Rumble. I'm not surprised she would have tackled this subject - she does these things very well.
Yeah I see your point.
