Erewhon
Erewhon is a fascinating book. It pictures an authoritarian society that criminalizes everything. At first the main character thinks of how beautiful everyone is but will soon find that Erewhon makes criminals out of victims even if that person is victimized by illness, fraud or misfortune. Psychiatry has indeed done this in a lot of ways but instead the person is "sick", a good example is if people are homeless it is normally blamed on "mental illness" and not misfortune. In Erewhon a "straightener" is like a cross between a police man and a psychiatrist. Straighteners are called to straighten people after having committed an offence and sometimes the person is put on trial.

Is Psychiatry A Weapon Or Medical Science?
This is a video designed to show the general public how Psychiatry can be used as a weapon and to try to make the voice of people like Thomas Szasz heard more who was in the field but still spoke out against it. The clips in this video have not been investigated to verify they are true because that is not the point of this video. The point is not to ask whether these clips are true but to ask is it possible, whether they are true or not is not the point. This is a video designed to get the viewer to ask the simply question is it possible?

Mental Health is Too Ripe For Abuse
This video is designed to ask the question has the mental health system done more harm than good? Is it too ripe for abuse? How much of it is real science and how can it be abused. The clips in the video have not been investigated as being true because that is not the point. The point is too ask is it possible and if the answer is yes then is the mental health system too right for abuse and needs to be dismantled?
