Don't Blame The British for Past Horrors

Image
 Don't Blame the British Public for Old Colonial Horrors- why it's a mistake. Responsibility lies at the top - not with regular people. The empire was about big business. Pure and simple. It created huge wealth and now the collective hangover guilt- especially among our more compassionate voters- is clearly messing up - people being arrested for 'thought crime' is apparently actually happening in the UK (and affecting not the terminally rich and spoiled) Thought Crime Arrests It is a tragic and dangerous habit of human beings to mistake the sins of power for the sins of the people. And some injured parties want to see the destruction of the UK as is evident here- Britain Being Destroyed From Within When nations inherit the bittero memory of empire, the fury is often directed at those least able to bear it: the ordinary citizens, the neighbour, the single mum, the shopkeeper, the labourer, the soldier who fought and bled without ever once sitting in a cabinet room or sig...

Psychiatry Sweetie

Image
  Psychiatry, sweetie, is the ultimate high-society hustle. A bit of a scam at times- really.   In Allen Frances’s book 'Saving Normal', the old (incredible) insider plays both sides.  One moment he’s confessing that the DSM turned everyday quirks into gold-plated diagnoses. Then he’s condemning the system even more and telling us he's responsible for the autism surge.  The truth? Diagnoses are invented in backrooms, voted into existence like casting calls at a Beverly Hills mansion.  No blood tests, no scans, no hard evidence – just a committee deciding whether your heartbreak, your wild night, your traumatic abuse and it's injustices or your kid’s fidgeting- deserves a label not a resolution.   And every new label is another shot of champagne for Big Pharma- that let's face it- hasn't updated it's ethical framework in a while? The drugs? Love- they don’t heal- they ,*mask* they sedate, they numb, they toy with your body chemistry like a bad boy ...

The Autism Mountain

 The so-called autism epidemic has been sold to the public as an unprecedented surge in children afflicted with a mysterious condition. In reality, it is an epidemic created by psychiatry itself. The numbers rose not because millions of children suddenly lost the ability to function in society, but because diagnostic boundaries were quietly expanded. Dr Allen Frances, the psychiatrist who chaired the DSM-IV task force, has been unusually candid. He later said his “biggest DSM-IV regret” was that “our broadening the autism definition … led to such massive, careless over-diagnosis” (Allen Frances, Twitter, April 2023). In another interview he admitted he was “very sorry for helping to lower the diagnosis bar” (New York Post, April 24 2023). When the architect of the system admits diagnostic inflation—not hidden disease—is to blame, the foundations of the narrative begin to collapse. Families have been trapped in this narrative for decades. They were not villains. They were misled. A ...
