  • Oh boy. I can’t wait for people who bray about public health being a failure while ignoring steady defunding over decades. I’m really sorry, my friend

    It’s classical liberal method of manufacturing consent for privatisation in sensitive departments, first defund so it can’t work properly then privatise when people complain it don’t work properly. They do the same thing for retirements, insurances, education, transport, basically everything they can’t outright sell because they fear people would protest. In especially postsocialist countries this happens all the time.















  • I remember it, they were pretty prolific and pretty aggressive poster, and any argument not even propsychiatry but sceptical of antipsychiatry were attacked by them. And the entire topic of antipsychiatry just basically disappeared after that person went away, so it was really an case of how one person can artifically pump some topic in community.

    About meritum, despite having some point on topic it was clear that this person bordered on total denial which don’t strike me as fair but maybe i’m biased as someone who got real help from psychiatrist. I just don’t think it’s correct to completely disavow this entire field of medicine over some abuses and mistakes.
