Dude, fuck you and your dumbass views. You support the genocide of the Americas. It was the first thing we argued about. Now, I see this. Are you really saying that people are homeless because they are anti-psychiatry? Because of a handful of writers? What laziness! Sure, just let someone else tell you what causes all sorts of people to become homeless. Sure, that is realistic, and honest study. I am sure each of those writers are fucking crackjobs with lazy arguments and unhealthy advice. The only people who are anti-psychiatry who are worth listening to are those who say that a mental problem exists, it just isn't caused by some disease that needs medication to fix it. In fact, studies have proven that medication often changes it into something more long-lasting, or simply covers it up by numbing the user. If they ever stop taking the medication, or can't afford it which is more common, then the thin-ass blanket hiding their unhealthy mental habits will disappear and they'll be lost.

Psychiatry is evil. It teaches that you need "the right way of thinking" and "the right medication" to be healed from whatever is ailing you. It doesn't try to keep you locked up, unless you deny the medication, that is. Involuntary hospitalization is terrifying, and if you don't believe me, then ask one of the thousands of normal people who were forced into those hospital psych-wards. It is hell.

They don't teach that mental "illnesses" are often just unhealthy mental habits that can be personally dealt with in-house, so to speak. They teach that you have it for life until you condition your brain to have some specific chemical balance, or some other horse-shit that has no science to back it up. They lie, and they have probably caused more homeless than either of us could ever realize. I don't trust any studies about the causes of homelessness. They aren't going to give honest answers if asked, and they often barely understand it themselves.

No medications are required to heal yourself. No therapy sessions with establishment-fucks are required to think in healthy ways. Chipit, you are an absolute ass.

No, the ACLU was anti-putting people in mental institutions because they had committed no crime.

The state hospitals incarcerated non-criminals against their wills in inhumane conditions. This was a violation of due process and their civil liberties. There is STILL public funding for mental institutions. However, people now must either be there because they are a danger to themselves or others, they have voluntarily checked in, or they are criminally insane. Especially now that we have drugs to successfully treat most forms of mental illness so that people can function in society, the involuntary incarceration of the insane has no legal or moral basis. Especially since they were widely used to shut up undesirable mentally handicapped people, too, and a number of reports revealed that many of the so-called insane may not have been any such thing. It was a good way to get rid of a troublesome wife, though, if you have a doctor willing to sign the right papers...

Psychiatry is evil.

Whoa...are you a Scientologist‽ That's a big tell right there.

The last time I told you that psychiatry was evil, you did the same thing and called me a Scientologist. What a transparent shill you are.

Coming out of nowhere with a strong anti-psychiatry stance is a tell for Scientologists. They're taught to be against it; it's part of L. Ron Hubbard's teachings.

Dude, plenty of doctors and lawyers are against psychiatry. What an association you make by calling me a Scientologist. A fucking leap.

"Coming out of nowhere." Yeah, once again, Chipit, you are a butter-bean and an absolute ass.

Name-calling is the lowest level of the Pyramid of Debate and explicitly against site rules. You aren't a good match for Saidit, your arguing method is too poor.

I'm leaving anyways, you can narc if you'd like, guy. I have no interest in debating to score points. You are an ass, plain and simple.

Yes, we know, SJWs don't debate or argue. Those are the tools of racists.

"Yes, we know." Ah, you shills and your little clubs.
