Exactly!
My eyes were opened in the early 90s. I was old school raised in the 50's when social workers didn't have a degree or a union and most were truly motivated by altruism to aid the poor, steering them to both private and governmental assistance.
So I was stunned learn that an SW degree allowed one to practice therapy. This happened at a lunch in NYC with my then fiancee and an SW friend of hers. Listened the SW describe how she actively lied on welfare/assistance program applications for illegal aliens, immigration applications and her Marxist views. Subsequent discussions with my gf revealed how morally corrupt both SW and the mental health professions had become The gender fluid had quietly taken over the APA leadership well before the release of the DSM that removed homosexuality from the disorder list. Just as the Human Resource folks had.
Transvestite acceptance at the corporate level in NYC occurred in the mid 70's. Saw that at Chembank HQ during a consulting job for interior renovations. Two screaming loud ugly drama queens in the corporate cafeteria. Both fore runners of Big Mike. SMH!
You don’t know your history..not in the beginning.
