Everything they are doing seems designed to shutdown the right brain hemisphere's way of attending to the world, a la Dr Iain McGilchrist. This model predicts, for example, that since the evolutionary role of the right hemisphere’s way of attending to the world is the open sustained vigilance needed to look out for threats and predators, those under the spell will be left totally exposed to predatory forces.
So folks under the spell will be completely blind to clear and present dangers and warning signs, and will be unable to heed the warnings of those around them, until it is too late, even when it comes to the children.
I love his work. He speculates that perhaps music will save us, that it was with music that Orpheus once moved stones. I am over a thousand pages into the Matter With Things. He's doing dialogues on youtube and his channel with Alex Marin Gomez, an interdisciplinary professor in Spain that discuss each chapter. I so agree with you about the right brain. Iain McGilchrist is so erudite I sometimes think he's a quantum traveler like Mozart come to catalyst us out of this calcification, lol. Like maybe he's wearing invisible Mithrail, and maybe there are others, lol. Some days I think its a simulation, some days that there is nonlocal nontemporal metaphysical evil, but I feel like the real danger is derealization, which comes of not spending enough time using the right brain to comprehend what is happening, staying stuck in the left brain online, where it is aggressive and angry and given to thinking it is right about everything. So much sorrow in the right brain though, like a conduit to the tsunami of sorrow and shock out in the world. We need a platform that just plays music and reads poems all day and all night and leads prayers to whatever or whomever. Camus said "live to the point of tears," and we're all being forced into that position, even those in denial are riding the subterranean wave of sorrow, and carnage as Tessa says. William Stafford said "...there may be losses to great to understand" and that's where I am I guess.
