Mass Mind Brain Damage

Not just personal brain damage, not just one individual brain damage.

Brain damage of entire groups, mass mind brain damage. Mass man brain damage.

“Listen, are we helpless? Are we doomed to do it again and again and again? Have we no choice but to play the Phoenix in an unending sequence of rise and fall? Assyria, Babylon, Egypt, Greece, Carthage, Rome, the Empires of Charlemagne and the Turk: Ground to dust and plowed with salt. Spain, France, Britain, America—burned into the oblivion of the centuries. And again and again and again. Are we doomed to it, Lord, chained to the pendulum of our own mad clockwork, helpless to halt its swing? This time, it will swing us clean to oblivion.” ― Walter M. Miller Jr., A Canticle for Leibowitz
