    I assume you guys will freak out over criticism of this dear “science” less than reddit-logo but just in case, please read the end notes. No, my use of historical facts (slide 2 pertains most to the 1930s-60s) is not demanding everyone individually stop taking meds or going to therapy.

      It’s one of those things where Psychiatry could theoretically be a proper discipline, but is instead a state-sponsored regime of quackery to get people to shut up as quickly as possible.

      Nah this fucking rules. Cant really achieve humanitarian liberation without understanding the multitude of ways oppression is woven into society and the depths to which phobia of anything non “neurotypical” is entrenched.

      Nah, fuck thought doctors. They deserve the smoke. Western society treats them like holy secular priests too. Wouldn’t be so bad if liberals didn’t act they can fix all your problems, probably because they wasted so much time and money on it themselves. One of the most arrogant professions even if they play humble when you meet them. Get the hell out of our heads. You want to help us? Stab an insurance executive and join the vanguard party.

      You don’t demand that people stop using these services, but you seem to only recognize the most broken and abusive practices that exist or have existed. For anyone who is struggling in this community, being able to discern what providers are safe/empowering and which are not is more useful than what you are offering here.

        It makes sense to care about immediate utility to practical life. I’m not advising how to live, I’m spreading insight of the way capitalism shapes certain institutions which contribute to its function at the expense of the proletariat.
