A pro-science marxist who is labeled with Autism and ADHD. Psychiatry is a psuedoscientific tool of oppression mostly used by the bourgeoisie and we should oppose it!

  • I kind of don’t understand the argument. Yes, social sciences are often not as robust as math or physics. What’s the conclusion here?

    The conclusion is that psychiatry is not a hard science.

    Psychiatry shouldn’t exist? All the research should stop and all patients diagnosed with schizophrenia, bipolar, self harm, depression should be “left alone” (i.e. untreated)?

    The post never made any suggestions on what should happen to those demographics. It just explains why psychiatry is not a hard science.










  • I would not consider Matrix an alternatdve to Signal. The Matrix protocol is messy and I had a lot of " matrix moments™"

    How is the matrix protocol messy? It had extraneous metadata, but it got removed in a version.

    Also, what is a “matrix moment”?

    XMPP with omemo is great, no need for a phone number and decentralised. I like it.

    Why not just use that then?

    What I mean is that obviusly is not as battle tested as PGP/GPG since is not that old and it’s not as spread as it, now.

    That’s a problem when choosing security tools. How do you know the reliability of the tool if it hasn’t been battle tested enough?

    But PGP is extremely complicated, overextended, with terrible defaults and backwards compatability with some stuff from the stone age.

    I would need to scan the GPG source code to try to understand your point, but I don’t have the time or will to do so.

    What terrible defaults though? GPG’s defaults seem fine to me. I might be missing stuff tho.
