Useful research paper on the uses of "fear."

This might provide some clues as to the use of psyops to disorientate and control. The fear induced does not need to actually occur, the fear is the useful mechanism. I realise that not only paranoia about "infection" is useful, whether it occurs or not, but the trans promotion also is useful in disorientating people from their sense of normality.

Inducing Fear Ami Harbin

In this paper, I consider the ways in which fear can be a tool of agents, used to deliberately shift other people away from existing beliefs, commitments, or habits, or towards new ones. I offer an account of how fear may be cultivated with the end goal of either orienting or disorienting, and I provide a moral evaluation of these uses of fear. I suggest that such an evaluation depends in part on first establishing a clear understanding of the dynamics of disorientation that can be involved in such uses.
