So the belief that sending mentally ill people literally to the farm upstate is multifold. First, there's still a lot of people due to the stigma and misrepresentation/misunderstanding/ignorance of MH issues who truly believe most are just fakers and whiners and hard work and sunshine is JUST...

what they need. Anorexia? Just make them eat! They'll get hungry enough! People need to stop babying their bullshit. Shit I've literally heard from peers and adults when a classmates' sister died from the disease. DIED. Another sister (who thank goodness lived) suffered for years w/ hospitalization

I could go on and on, post partum depression...it's getting better w/ awareness but it's still soooo much bullshit and shit shows and suffering. MANY human beings if they don't directly experience something ... just refuse to get it. YOU are not an exception here, even if it's not just for this.

Seriously there's something you do this for, it's very human as to be universal. I know guys who truly believe no woman ACTUALLY likes watching sports and only do it to impress males. yeah. I mean. Yeah.

So yeah. And if you don't get it to that level, it's really dangerous for everyone. Like that cop that shot that counciler twice, because he was trying to kill an austic young man who was doing nothing because scary.

Then there are those who don't believe that this farm upstate shit will help. They don't. They think the help will be removing mentally ill people from society, their society. Away from having to look or deal with it. That or lock 'em up in prisons or hospitals they don't care. They want them gone.

And then there will be those who are fucking idiots who believe it will actually be helpful, oh perhaps not for everyone, but ...better that schizophrenic unsheltered person be on a nice farm, in the sunshine, where they have a warm bed and supervision than in an alley being hurt!!!111

What NONE of this involves is actual science for what is both a medical issue and a social issue...both of which we can SCIENCE. And have done!

And it's not like there aren't some good viable solutions, plural, for many of these problems. Universal health care, including mental health care. Providing housing and social workers for those critically ill and unsheltered. We could go on, the solutions are many and ... it's not the farm.

Nate is waking up @nf1nk.bsky.social

I wonder if guys who say no women ACTUALLY likes watching sports actually likes watching sports. Maybe they only do it to fit in with other men.

It doesn’t often work, but I often say, “Does willpower work on diabetes? Okay, then you believe a body can be low on a chemical that you can’t will more of.”

Who it works best on is teenagers spiraling and scared to start SSRIs.

Also as a mentally ill person trying to get a job at a farm to survive I am so confused does this dude want me to live or not? 16$/hr to milk cows all day? Man that doesn't pay for the rent of my trailer out here in the boonies

Yeah, they’re actually doing to send the mentally ill people to live on the same farm that dogs are sent to. It’s a fucking concentration camp that will become a death camp. ChatGPT will generate a “personality” so friends and relatives won’t be worried.

This shit is so scary. It sounds so ridiculous that you almost don’t consider it real but I think in RFK Jr’s mind it is a very real plan. How many of us will suffer, be tortured and die because of this? Families torn apart.
