People’s recognizing the existence and function of the emotional plague is the most important social problem facing humanity today. Without this awareness nothing in people’s social lives can possibly change for the better. The problem is that the plague is too deeply imbedded in the masses of people’s armored structures, their unconscious, for people to be aware of its existence. Their cluelessness is why one must consistently and patiently stay on the social surface of its day-to-day, pathological manifestations in social and political life before it can be possible for people to get it. These are the epidemic “symptoms” of the plague. By doing so, the plague will eventually come to the surface of some people’s awareness. This process of dealing with the plague on a social level is functionally identical to the work of the medical orgonomist performing character analysis on an individual level.
