Lets change the subject for a second. Slightly related but slightly askew.
Having a Mental Illness is basically a CRIME. If a person truly does have a Mental Illness, they dont "help" these people, they demand they take very expensive drugs, then they throw them in Jails and Prisons. Their idea of "therapy" is Imprisonment, and turning these people into something that is profitable for a handful of individuals. They dont have huge Insanitarium Mental Hospitals where they are overflowing with patients. They dont have a bunch of Doctors running around frantically trying to do anything to treat the conditions. No, they point at the infected and throw them in Jail. I believe I remember a statistic that said the State of Maine, the whole fucking state, has 12 total beds to house the Mentally Ill. Twelve. Not 1,200, but 12. Thats it. Mental Illness is a fucking LABEL. Might just as well point and call people WITCH, because that is what this is turning in to. A modern day WITCH hunt.
Next problem aside from how they actually "treat" the Mentally Ill (they dont), is how these cases are handled in the Courts of the Just-Us System. There is a big difference between being Mentally Ill and Insane. An Insane person would be completely unable to distinguish the difference between right and wrong. A Mentally Ill, while suffering from severe debilitating effects of their illness, are thus, allowed to stand trial and face convictions, thus Jails and Prisons are going to be filled with anyone they dont want to "damage" society by revealing its true nature.
There is no action that is more patriotic than to question the actions of the Government. Another very strong point to be made is that one of many signs of true intelligence is the ability to entertain an idea rather than blindly accepting it. This type of thinking is known as Devils Advocate. Devils Advocates, such as myself and most of us here do not accept the ideas they spout. Every time we say something like "Reported" or "good job, Comrade", even jokingly, we are playing Devils Advocate. We entertain the ideas without accepting them. This sign of intelligence is what brings us together. When we see others able to do what we are able to do, such as playing the Devils Advocate, we come together naturally.
Modern Psychiatry is as much of its own Religion as it has become completely Weaponized against Freedom in general. One of our other members (not in this thread) stated that not all Psychiatrists buy into the idea that the DSM has any real value. The shrinks themselves dont buy their own garbage. Other side of the coin is that some truly do. This version of the DSM will be updated with another version which has even more Mental Illnesses, and that version will be replaced with even more, and the total number of conditions defined by the DSM will continue to increase until every single one of us is walking around with what this fucking garbage book defines as Hundreds of Mental Disorders.
Marketing is based on two ideas. #1 The seller has something the Buyer either wants or needs. #2 The seller convices the buyer that the benefits of having that product or service is worth their money that an exchange should be made. Heavily debatable as to the actual ideas, but it is slightly off the point. When there is an absence of actual wants or needs, these wants or needs are manufactured. The buyer has to be convinced to want or need whatever is being sold. A fairly strong example of this is selling Warranties on everything. I dont just mean a manufacturers warranty, where a product is "covered" in case of defection, but the extra warranties that are sold on top of the product being sold. Best Buy is notorious for this. They sell you a truly worthless warranty for an electric can opener. And it is completely worthless because what ever you pay for that extended or additional warranty will not help you in any way shape or form if your product truly is defective. Bla bla bla extended warranty, and it completely overlaps the manufacturers warranty. As soon as manufacturers warranty expires, so does your extended warranty. They are selling you NOTHING and it is highly profitable, because so many people are completely convinced that anything that costs more than $10 bucks needs a warranty. The key here is they are selling an idea and people buy into the idea. They accept without challenge the idea that they will somehow be better protected and this service that is sold has value. The additional warranty service has zero value, yet people pay for it because they usually lack the experience to teach them these additional warranties are worthless. Big items like cars, sure, those make sense, but are also limited. I mean the garbage warranties you get sold when you buy a DVD or a Game Controller. They are junk. The IDEA that it has value is what is being sold.
This extends into the realm of Psychiatry where by the Patient buys into the idea that they are "sick" and need "their treatment". Do you have Hairy Knuckes? Then you not only have a medical condition (known as being a mammal), you also have a Mental Disorder because of all the troubles you probably dont even know you have. Then they manipulate you emotionally because they can not sustain their findings logically. Dont you ever feel like you should be happier than you are? Yeah, thats cuz of all that repressed guilt because you have Hairy Knuckles, then follow up based on the emotional shaming and guilt injected into your perceptions to get you to take "Magic Pills" for your "condition". It is Sales. If they are selling from the Comic Book that is the DSM, they are not Psychiatrists, they are fucking Used Car Salesmen. Their real purpose is to continue the Indoctrination you were first subjected to in Public School, where you are first made to be as emtionally dependant on the School and Authority in general for your concept of self worth. These Shrinks further indoctrinate you by identifying any flaws that most of us already have, making you internalize a negative emotional response, and once slightly more emotionally dependant on them by manipulationg your perceptions of reality, go "in for the kill" where they close the deal by putting you on "Magic Pills" that somehow fix you. The Religious aspect plays its part because none who are taught modern psychology dare to go against the wisdom of the Mind Church. They are "wise" because they know who to point the finger at and call out WITCH. But like any powerful Religion, what they demand above all else is the Belief that what they say is the only dogmatic truth in existence. It has nothing to do with God or Jesus or Muhammed or Buddha, they are dependant on another series of Beliefs that they try to manipulate you into blindly accepting. Such as the Belief that MSM tells the most objective versions of the Truth, that Costumes grant True Authority, that Fiat Currency has actual Value. They switch out objectivity for subjectivity where the value of something is quantified despite having completely different values to different people. The price of a car will change from person to person because each person has a different value because that value is truly subjective, not objective. However, to manipulate you as much as possible, you are sold the idea that the value of the car is Objective, hence why there is always a "Sticker Price". Running with the car analogy a bit further, your Obedience to the Banks is also heavily examined. The more Obedient to the Banks you are, the lower your price will be, as a resut of hopefully being offered a lower Interest Rate.
It is always your Obedience that is constantly in question, and they have no other choice but to label those who question their own Obedience as Mentally Ill. An emotional manipulation in order to make your Beliefs completely dependant on what you are spoon-fed. There are some real illnesses that exist. One of those true illnesses is when these Pill Salesmen truly buy into their own bullshit.
