I believe sadly that a lot of people are eager to wield this power, psych evals, and many already do in law enforcement, teaching, human resources, and elsewhere.
Look how often on the internet people are analyzing and deeming others bipolar, sociopaths, or having narcissistic personality disorder and so on.
It’s probably only a matter of time before we give our govt the power to stamp these labels on our ID cards and determine everything in our lives from schooling to jobs to healthcare and freedom.
I take BP meds. When I have to go back to my GP to renew
prescriptions, I just say I’m OK.
Your experience doesn’t surprise me. I just posted about how many professions already wield this power, making ridiculous “psych” evaluations. I left out healthcare workers, doctors.
it is.
the government never has good intentions. A friend of mine was foolish enough to allow the government into her life to help her with her son who was struggling in school. They told her they wanted to help and she believed them. Now they visit her home weekly and she has to bring her son and whole family for "therapy" 3 times a week. They of course want to put him on meds but she hasn't gone along with that. She regrets ever getting them involved in her family. They made her find a new home so that he could have his own room for privacy and have told her that he will be taken away if she disciplines him in a manner they find unacceptable. Needless to say he is still getting straight Fs.
Exactly. Obamacare casts a dragnet across every citizen. The mandate sees to it.
When did all doctors gain psychiatric liscences?
But no therapy for homosexuals of transgender. They’re normal.
When I lived in Minnestoopid, I would just put up the act like I was a typical Minnesotan barking moonbat. When the nurse asked me if I owned guns, the reply was “No! Guns are dangerous!” I would dumb down the amount of bicycling because people my age were simply not supposed to be fit. So I applied a lot of disinformation and maskirovka.
And yet the APA doesn’t consider a man who thinks he is a woman is mentally ill, and now the federal government protects those who do.
Christian therapists are being told they can’t refuse to treat homosexuals who don’t want to be homosexual (conversion therapy). Chris Christie was even proud to sign that law in NJ.
Nor in some states can they tell mentally ill who think they are an opposite gender to rectify mind with reality, in some states.
In these cases, the only legally allowed therapy is yeah, you’re homosexual, OK, you think you’re a woman, let’s start hormones and plan on surgery.
So no, the religious exemption to intrusive questions isn’t allowed.
Then they can restrict them from owning guns.
and be put on a “no buy guns” list.
We are now officially the new Soviet Union.
Perdinavititis.
I only need a three-word answer.
And funny, the first word is always "Go" and the third word is always "Yourself".
Unless, of course, I need to embellish for color.
(Sure sounds like another program from the last century, maybe a couple of them).
That is just the beginning, slavery and a trip to the 'recyclers' come later.
