The late Dr Thomas Szasz once said "Psychiatry does not commit human
rights abuse. It is a human rights abuse.” Dr Szasz was absolutely
right. It is pure propaganda to assert that psychiatry has anything of
value to offer for the prevention and treatment of mental illness.
Ever since its genesis psychiatry has been a highly destructive
discipline which profits greatly from the intense pain and suffering it
afflicts people with. The consistent stealing of the freedom of people
by psychiatrists runs counter to what is necessary to nurture mental
health. The legalization of psychiatry with swift, fixed kangaroo civil
court proceedings as occurs across the entire USA simply makes
psychiatry even more oppressive and antithetical to everything necessary
for an individual to enjoy mental health. The pathetic aggressive
support of psychiatry by the US government conveys the zeal with which
the US government has always actually held freedom and democracy in
disdain and has instead been seeking rigid authoritarian rule over the
general public ever since the country was founded! MandelNews.com
