Covid 19 and the War Against Reality

By Thaddeus Kozinski, Ph.D.

This book puts into spiritual, theological, philosophical, psychological, moral, historical, cultural, and political perspective the incredible evil we have witnessed and suffered over the past four years, amounting to the greatest crime against humanity ever committed. The plandemic was not only an all-out assault on every human being on the planet, but also an assault on reality itself. Though its most obvious effects were economic and political, at its core it was a spiritual and psychological-terror operation knowingly and deliberately orchestrated by a small global elite of unspeakably evil and psychopathic people. It was executed by a larger group of lower-tier cooperators ignorant of the master plan but vicious enough to use their power and influence to inflict untold harm on those in their charge. And it was enabled by the masses of idolatrous, fearful, alienated, rootless, selfish, and cowardly men, the rotten fruit of godless and decadent liberalism. How did this happen, where are we now, and how should we prepare spiritually for what is coming? Why did God allow such evil? How can we best dispose our souls to be in union with and conduits of God, Who alone can defeat this diabolical evil? This book tries to answer these questions.

TESTIMONIALS

“The book discusses the perceived rise of a global totalitarianism under the cover of the COVID-19 pandemic, framing it as a spiritual and moral crisis that challenges the concept of objective reality and sacred truth. The thesis is persuasive; the argument forceful; the writing colorful; and the diagnosis and cure provocative. Still, all this is not entirely new; indeed, the cure recalls the traditional idea of Catholic and liberal education which revolutionized European culture and progressively the world. For instance, Kozinski particularly stresses the reading of Plato and Shakespeare alongside the Bible. He proposes the founding on such a basis of a new university: RCU or Real Christian University. Such liberal arts education is crucial, he says, but it is not enough. There must also be an existential encounter with God; not with mere doctrine (secular or religious): the whole man, body and soul, must be formed.” – Peter Simpson, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy and Classics, City University of New York

“Everything, literally everything, they told us in 2020 and after was a lie, and these lies were aimed at the total subjugation of society and human souls.” So writes Thaddeus Kozinski in an uncompromising critique of the spiritual rot engendered by the Western Enlightenment and political liberalism, culminating in an unprecedented attack on human dignity by the governments of liberal democracies during the “Covid-19” debacle. The reason why populations allowed this to happen was their “obedience to the Sacred State and the demonic voice speaking through it.” Too many people have turned away from the Good, the True, and the Beautiful — from God — and are instead willing to live in a manufactured unreality. Only a reorientation of the social and political order around the truths revealed in the Catholic tradition and aspiration towards holiness of soul offer any hope of a remedy. Yet, with so many people choosing unreality, not least those hiding beneath a pious facade, and with the professions universally corrupted, Kozinski argues that we must prepare ourselves spiritually for the Great Tribulation and the arrival of Antichrist. This is a bold book that is unafraid to call out the evil in our world for what it is, and to consider what kind of education is required in the Age of Unreality.” — Dr. David A. Hughes, author of “Covid-19,” Psychological Operations, and the War for Technocracy, Volume 1 and Wall Street, the Nazis, and the Crimes of the Deep State

“Thaddeus Kozinski is a teacher who turns your thinking upside down, destroys the order of your thoughts and insists that there is a better way of putting them together.  What he deals with here is the question of evil, which he tells us is not a problem but a mystery. His laboratory sample is the plandemic of 2020. He takes apart this mystery, which so many us have pondered for five years, and shows us that our understandings have been tentative, partial. We need to go deeper into things, he plausibly insists, to go to the centre of all meanings, for that is where the truth about this, and everything, resides. He diagnoses the roots of what has happened in that perversion of freedom, liberalism, an ideology of counterfeit liberty. But he cuts deeper than sociological or ideological analysis, to expose why even Christ’s own Church became implicated in the evil-doing. These events, he outlines, are the culmination of Biblical prophecies and warnings, and are therefore to be seen as the inevitable outcome of man’s rejection of God. What is happening to the world now is, accordingly, being permitted by God as a means of restoring His authority over his creation. When, in the past five years, we have heard people speak of what has been happening as a ‘spiritual war’, it has not always been clear what this means. In this book we find the answer: it is ultimately a war declared by men against God, and which is therefore, ultimately, a war declared by man upon himself. This is a book for both the faithful and the faithless, for it speaks to the part of each of us that is eternal, even if in spite of ourselves.  When Thaddeus Kozinski proposes as the beginnings of a solution what he calls “existential Christianity,” he is acknowledging the linguistic trap into which man has painted himself: he is not God but has abolished God, and so must replace him, even in his total inadequacy.  Only in seeing this, can we perceive the error of the totalitarians, and grasp the formula by which to pursue their banishment.” — John Waters, Thinker, Talker, and Writer 

“The world has nowhere come to full consciousness of what happened to us from 2020-2023 under the pretense of mastering the microbial kingdom. They targeted all human life in what amounts to a coup against civilization and its foundational moral and spiritual principles. This is where Thaddeus Kozinski comes in to offer an even deeper analysis that speaks to theological concerns, the replacement of an organic liturgy of life with a manufactured one straight out of the worst dystopian novel. It’s no wonder people are in denial. This book reveals the fullness of what happened as a path toward spiritual healing.” — Jeffrey Tucker, Founder and President, Brownstone Institute

“With clarity, urgency, and profound charity, Thaddeus Kozinski argues that liberalism is the ideological medium of totalitarianism, and correspondingly, that modernity is the historical vessel of the worldly west’s collective “perfect possession,” that starkest spiritual condition, marked by a hermetic severance (psychic as well as intellectual) from the Divine. From this unfolds the inevitability of an eschatological moment—our moment—looming with the horrors of anomos, the man of lawlessness: Antichrist, against whom there is no secular or political hope whatsoever. To the scapegoating bloodlust which anomos recently unleashed in the modern liberal leviathan, Kozinski responds with a vision of that mercy inhabiting (as he ventures to call it) “the Divine Revelation of evil.” In light of which anyone still capable of listening is summoned to observe the only Perfect Sacrifice, and this in humble submission to His cosmic authority and faultless love for us. Which alone reveal the profane blood rites of our satanic elite for what they are, and what they portend: the dread yawning of hell’s gates, amid which salvation beckons this last time.” —Thomas Breidenbach, poet, parapolitical researcher, and author of IX XI and the Mysteries of State (in manuscript)
