Social Unconscious: Stockholm Syndrome

Stockholm syndrome is the name attributed to the particular psychological condition in which someone, when subjected to prolonged time of intimidation, becomes sympathetic and even befriended or idolatrous by his or her aggressor. There is also a strong possibility, largely considered, that for some people, victims of similar harassment, may develop some unconscious mechanism of defense, in an attempt to project affective feelings in the figure of the kidnapper or abuser, because they can soften or relax some kind of negotiation or agreement between the victim/aggressor relationship in an attempt to reduce tension, during and after the experiences between those involved.

The reader will be able to understand the deep complexes generated in the social unconscious, based on the analysis of C. G. Jung in "Aspects of Contemporary Drama". It must be observed that all human beings have two realities and the judgment of reality is the ability to distinguish between internal reality and external reality. In the 21st century, it seems that many Brazilian leaders and politicians have not yet developed the judgment of reality; therefore, they do not distinguish the internal reality from the external reality, that is, they do not see their own reality or the reality of Brazilian citizens.

On the other hand, in order for the reader to evaluate the veracity of Stockholm syndrome in the Brazilian political scene, the author presents videos of reports and copies of official documents of the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) and the Supreme Federal Court (STF) of Brazil. It shows the political maneuvers of the Supreme Court, which ordered the release of numerous defendants convicted of "Operation Lava Jato", so that these defendants can run from the 2022 elections. The videos and documents presented are so that the reader can evaluate this and other decisions, as well as the unconstitutional agreements made with the national congress (CN). All these events have as a "backdrop" the COVID-19 pandemic, while the health and freedom of expression of the Brazilian people are used as a political game.
