Dissent Into Madness

This 2025 documentary by The Corbett Report explores the historical and contemporary use of psychiatry and psychology to pathologize and suppress political dissent, questioning whether dissidents' "delusions" might reflect reality while labeling critics as insane serves to maintain power structures. It traces examples from Benjamin Rush's era to modern cases of forcible psychiatric detention of conspiracy theorists and opponents, examining how such tactics discredit voices challenging official narratives and suggesting that the true madness lies with those in authority.
