straw-man, ad hominem
One thing is clear to me, discussing psychiatry is already a MAJOR TABOO... e.g.: in the article the dude says how he "thinks it has something to do with chemistry... and stuff" clearly in a not-so-scientific reasoning(not that all must be) but just pointing out this sort of questionings leads to major downvoting
- DanBC 14y agoCan you not see that there is a huge difference between "questioning the effectiveness of psychiatry" and "blaming psychiatry for the holocaust"? I'm more than happy to ignore people who use the propaganda from a cult where anything from psychiatry is ignored.
- Buzaga 14y agok, agree, I don't want nothing to do with Scientology also, but it's still straw-man to picture everyone who is questioning as a scientologist
- DanBC 14y ago> but it's still straw-man to picture everyone who is questioning as a scientologist But that's not what I did. I responded to someone who posted scientology propaganda.
- chris_wot 14y agoScientology is absurd. You'll have to forgive me if someone such as myself, who suffers from depression, don't find that the assertions made by a cult to be something I take very seriously. By all means, criticize psychiatry. However, I've not seen anything substantive raised in any of the discussions in any of the threads so far.
