Psychiatric News is the official publication of the American Psychiatric Association (APA). The publication recently reported on the annual election of officers of the APA, featuring the new president-elect, Petros Levounis, M.D. The article reports Dr. Levounis's priorities and that "he plans to do the following: Amplify the psychiatrist's voice on critical social issues, such as systemic racism, homophobia, and climate change."
Let's deconstruct this trinity of social issues, which are of paramount concern to the incoming leader of American psychiatrists.
Systemic racism. A senseless term that alleges race-based enmity in "the system." What system? There is no major organization in America, not on any level or in any branch of the government, not the major private corporations, not the mainstream religious organizations, that is systemically racist. In truth, systemic racism is verbal manipulation to evoke the idea that European-Americans ("whites") are perpetually hateful to Americans of other races, especially African-Americans. The APA is engaging in the worst kind of divisive, destructive race-baiting in claiming there is a crisis of systemic racism in America.
Homophobia. Understanding phobia is the bread and butter of psychiatry. Phobia is a severe anxiety disorder in which the patient flees from and goes to sometimes extreme lengths to avoid the feared object. To claim that specific phobia toward homosexual people is a leading social crisis is not merely insane, but purposefully slanderous against the America people, who are a tolerant, adaptive people.
Climate change. This all-encompassing anti-scientific nonsensicality may be the most destructive of all. Consider autism, a neurological disease that may indeed have environmental multi-toxicity factors. Unlike the Wuhan virus, which, by design, intentional or unintentional, does not affect children much at all, autism is a pandemic of children. Virtue-signaling about climate change obscures and delays the science that someday may provide

Continuously lying is a REAL psychiatric disease.
Fortunately, there is a “VAX” for that, too.
APA - where your insanity is our insanity.
Precisely.
The APA is long past a bad joke.
SHUT IT DOWN!
If the APA keeps normalizing deviant psychotic behavior, doesn’t that cut down their customer base?
What kind of labor advocacy group does that?
Funny thing,
I was just talking with my Cardiologist last week about the fact that neither of us have ever seen a motorcycle parked outside a psychiatrist’s office.
They mean capitalism. The system=capitalism. It’s a rebranding issue: they know that words like capitalism and marxism and communism have a lot of baggage, so they are trying to reframe the paradigm, but it’s the same old marxism underneath.
Homophobia? Who is scared of homos! A better word is homomisia, a REVULSION of all things faggy.
Also works for Islamomisia and Transmisia.
Psychiatrists love to peg people as afraid of everything.
Psychiatry has unraveled many behavioral traits of the disordered and of the ordered mind.
I don’t necessarily trust the science because the practical factors for these doctors are almost all hypothetical. Which makes the science rife with charlatans and imposters.
I haven’t had a lot of contact with counselors or psychologist personally but I have been involved with them in regards to other Personnel issues in my time with HRM and I have been hoodwinked by more than three or four of them who were nothing more than imposters with degrees. One was an indentity thief for gods sake.
The American Psychiatric Association is the biggest bunch of insane people ever gathered into one room at one time.
Sure seems like it!
P.S. I like your Tagline. I like mine as well.
Go woke and then go broke????
Show me a psychiatrist and I’ll show you someone with more issues than all the newsstands in Times Sq, Grand Central,JFK,O’Hare, LAX Heathrow and Tampa Int’l combined. The reason why so many people who are either majoring in psych or out in the field are there is to try to figure out why they themselves are so screwed up in the head.
APA became irrelevant back in the 70s (IIRC) when they declared homosexuality as a normal condition.
“THE NEW NORMAL”
Other than the 2% of children who will behave like crap, even when spanked, there is literally NO NEED for a parent to be subjecting their kids to the perverted psychos.
APA-We do crazy right
Corporate insiders know they won’t get promoted or hired by other firms if they aren’t woke enough. God has clearly given this nation up to depravity.
