Mental health crisis clinician: dementia is not considered a “mental health” issue
Also, we can’t force people to get help just because they are acting wildly “crazy”… Even if it’s clearly psychosis, mania, etc. Even if the cops are getting called everyday because the person keeps trashing stores or harassing people. (And, in my state, the cops aren’t allowed to arrest them either, BECAUSE the behavior is due to mental illness).
There’s some serious issues with our mental health system in the US.
Because they’ll be extinct soon? :-(
Technically the choice exists for them… But if they’re never introduced to it can they be expected to know it exists? If every single person in their lives… Their parents, teachers, preachers, everyone they see on TV… Only ever feed them the same crap, and any dissent is not just discouraged, but dangerous. I’m not sure they really CAN choose you know? Now, there is a lot of willful ignorance as well… Don’t get me wrong. And obviously there’s a difference between not knowing you have a choice, and actually not having a choice.
Yeah…I guess I just meant that average liberals tend to blame average conservatives instead of the rich (while average conservatives basically blame everyone who doesn’t conform to their exact ideals instead of the rich).
Not sure I agree that conservatives can both “choose” to be like they are, and also be the victims of their upbringing in a toxic system. These 2 points you made seem to be contradictory.
I agree many liberals fail to see that the average conservative is also a victim of this system, and that conservatives are brainwashed to think what they believe is a good thing.
I don’t think I made the comparison you’re saying I made. I’m sorry it came across that way. Calling out asshole conservatives for being assholes is fine as long as it’s with the understanding that they don’t know any better because the rich have them so brainwashed. And then follow it up by trying to convince them that the rich are the problem, not the immigrants etc. But to stop at blaming average conservatives, without recognizing the rich as the fundamental problem, I think, has the same end result as conservatives blaming everyone that’s even slightly different than them… No one points at the rich.
That’s a big part of it… For me the smoking gun is building 7
That’s certainly a part of it
Yeah… The official theory from the Bush administration= a conspiracy theory… It defies logic and physics. Check it out if you’re interested
The official 9/11 conspiracy theory… Literally would need to change the laws of physics for it to be true
And on the liberal side they do the same thing except conservatives are the scape goat. Super frustrating.
You’re correct, pedophilia is a mental illness. A very tragic one since there is no hope and no cure. They can’t even ask for help because everyone will automatically assume they are also child molesters. Which is what you’re describing, but not all child molesters are pedophiles, and most pedophiles will never become child molesters… Like you said, some people just get off on exploiting the power dynamic and aren’t necessarily sexually attracted to children. Those people are the real danger.
Dear 800 pound 6 ounce newborn infant Jesus…
Maybe we just need a mental competency exam of some kind… Like, I think Bernie is still thinking pretty clearly, but Trump, Boebert and Greene? Literally mentally ill… And not just to pick on Republicans; Biden is clearly senile, Clinton is clearly a sociopath
Should make voting a week long thing so people have more time to go. The last day should be a national holiday.
And have to live in section 8 housing while in DC
I would also say he’d need to make sure those subsidies actually went to innovation and growth and not just in fat cat’s pockets.
That’s my understanding too… I meant OP personally. What level of UBI do you support?
Fear… At the bottom of it is always fear
