Let's go to the movies. Dune... Fear is the Mind Killer. Let's go to the experiences of real life... Panic is the Soul Killer. The accumulated effect of fear eventually creates panic. On the societal level, things really get "interesting" when panic sets in. When it does, actually before it does, humans with intellect have chosen to find ways to minimize the effect of a panicked crowd.
I observe the present response to fear as closer to grief. The symptoms of long covid also match complex, long term grief. Such as solidifying oneself into a past model of what can no longer be and resisting the transition into an unknown way forward. I also see it manifesting in panic, violent defense of a dead structure as the illusion of it still being connected to divine will erodes under the reality of present living experience.
