We need more people like this guy. If your organization or company goes woke, RESIGN and make your case public.

Eh. It’s been a scam profession from day one. He just doesn’t like the current higher level of scamming than he was able to tolerate before.

Yup, in woke universities, Psychology is located adjacent to Astrology. Sometimes, Phrenology shares “professors” with both.

You will see this in full action in the area of sex addiction and Patrick Carnes followers. It’s horrible how these therapists treat the faithful spouse compared to the unfaithful one. And don’t get me started on christian therapists…. They enable sin and abuse.

I’d like to hear Jordan Peterson comment on this.

Resigned from APA years ago, when they began to depreciate the role of fathers in the family and endorse pathological gender bending ideology. The APA is derelict in pursuing its own mission statement, which once committed to the pursuit of scientific progress.

This all began for me with the 1973 decision by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) to remove homosexuality as a mental disorder from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM). Removal followed a two-year campaign Newsweek described as ongoing disruptive, chaotic attacks on psychiatrists and physiologists. Yet throughout these disruptive attacks, no academic papers arose at conferences refuting any research previously done. Eventually onslaughts forced sufficient abstentions, under-votes, and apprehensive responses for a third of APA’s 17,000 plus membership to approve removal.

After this decision, activists targeted leading individual researchers such as Dr. David Reuben, and Masters and Johnson to ensure perpetual sanctity for the APA action. No research papers would again arise to confirm initial therapy success rates of 30% to 60 %, substantiating that 7 of 10 homosexuals could eventually walk away from the lifestyle. Persistent activism over the years enabled ubiquitous infiltration of academia thereby ensuring pre-ordained theses, approved flexibility in research designs, suitable human data points, and enchanting statistical enhancements.

Psychology and Psychiatry chose to relinquish any attempt at scientific rigor for popular societal and political acclaim. With studies concerning homosexuality freed from objective analysis, advocates for social justice relied upon base antidotal politics to dominate debates. The DSM became a refuge for drug marketing brochures and political manifestos.

During my graduate work in finance, I took quantitative methods (QM) courses as electives. This one Abnormal Phycology professor’s graduate students were always after QM students for help, because he thrashed their theses for being too mercurial to validate. The ruling incensed him.
