Psychiatry is institutionalized scientism: it is the systematic imitation, impersonation, counterfeiting, and deception. This is the formula: every adult smokes ; hence, to prove that he is an adult, the adolescent smokes . Mutatis mutandis: every science consists of classification, control, and prediction; hence to prove psychiatry is a science, the psychiatrist classifies, controls, predicts. The result is that he classifies people as mad; that he confines them as dangerous ; and that he predicts people's behavior, robbing them of their free will and hence of their very humanity. (en) |
