Mass psychosis and crowd formation

Mike Yeadon is a former chief scientist at Pfizer, and Mattias Desmet is a professor of psychology at Ghent University in Belgium.

Both Mattias and Mike have been on my podcast on separate occasions.

This time they were together.

They discussed

  • mass formation psychosis;

  • scientists not thinking critically;

  • totalitarianism and its parallels to Covid hysteria;

  • the human desire for belief in something; and

  • why Mike could have chosen a better American state in which to live.
