thinking about how insanity is a political weapon
not just on the individual level where vulnerable ppl (esp women) are gaslighted into insanity to get repressed, but on much greater proportions like how every black person in the americas is driven mad from the constant racist surveillance and police brutality
to the point that there is not one single black person out there who doesnt fit the clinical profile of "bad mental health" at all bc its humanely impossible. modern psychiatry was first created by white supremacy to rationalize why black rebellion is morally wrong btw
depression is a weapon imposed on lgbt ppl to exterminate us w/ much less effort than imprisionment and murder, again its 100% scientifically IMPOSSIBLE to be lgbt and not fit a mentally unstable profile at least once in life, do you know ONE lgbt person w/o mental suffering?
not even getting into how being a woman is a type of mental illness by itself when not a single thing you do will not be pathologized as "womanly" or "unwomanly", every woman knows they must be less rational and have harmful emotions bc thats what women are
economic sanctions dont just starve and kill but permanently destroy the collective mental integrity of whole COUNTRIES, even imperialist "diplomatic" relationships weaponize madness to discredit the sanity/rationality of the victim government
and make the state itself feel crazy for trying so hard to be civil and empathic and peaceful while any action they take is painted as ferocious and monstruous by imperialists, just getting pushed and pushed by imperialism no matter how much they negotiate until they break
not to speak on how poverty isnt an "increased risk factor" for bad mental health, poverty necessarily unevitably makes you mad too, like taking a 5kg hammer to the leg will break it and theres no running away from it bc its how the human body works
thats why neurotypicality doesnt exist a natural scientifically measurable thing, the distance between "neurotypical" and "neurodivergent" ppl doesnt exist bc what determines if you go insane are your conditions and what determines what is considered insanity is the system
there are two sides that make up this whole: madness, the universal psycho-emotional-spiritual experience of empathy and ultrareality that is part of human nature, and insanity, the politicized application of madness as a weapon to oppress kill and torture into submission
suicide is good for imperial capitalism, btw. they love it soo much. the most effortless weeding out of ppl who cannot stand oppressive exploitative conditions leaving only the submissive and complacent ones who will put up with it. and you get to say the dead ones were failures!
neuropsychiatry research is to society today what sex and race science were 200 years ago. (they also believed that shit was top notch advanced objective research back then too, unquestionable by the ignorant unstudied masses)
science created to invent explanations of why certain groups of people are inferior and need to be fixed, put to submission, or straight up wiped out of existence to keep the imperialist machine running smooth
100 years of studying and no data has ever been found on genetic or neurological differences between mad and normal people like they keep promissing they will find, while we've stacked up a lot of data proving that this is extremely unlikely
but they'll keep wasting money on it as long as that's enough to keep the laymen talking unscientific myths about "chemical imbalances" which exist as concretely as "body humors" and "shaking uterus" to mask the true causes of human suffering in the world
