Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

And RFK wants to send you to a ~~gulag~~ "wellness farm" for it.
A bill like this was proposed in the Minnesota state house, shortly before one of the co-sponsors was arrested for soliciting sex from a minor.
That's why it's important to join the 50501 movement and have mass protests.
The biggest problem with these MAGA Nazis is that they fully believe their own nonsensical propaganda. They actually see Trump haters as mentally disabled, not angry patriotic Americans, so it doesn't occur to them that putting mentally healthy and angry people together is only creating a small motivated army that will kill their captors, take their weapons, and go house to house in the local community, killing everyone with MAGA stuff.
Most of them do not see opposition as mentally disabled, they see it as an internal enemy. And in dealing with it, punitive psychiatry is a times tested method.
Based. That's the attitude I want to hear. Remember that the ultimate enemy are the oligarch class so next they would need to be obliterated followed by a permanent revolution against fascism worldwide.
Only change is that I would take unarmed low-level Magatards as prisoners rather than kill them.
The administration is preparing to put them all in a "mental health camp".
Funny, that. Stalin's regime said the same thing. A lot of dissenters were labeled "mentally ill," and tortured in mental hospitals.
"It Can't Happen In America?" Wake the fuck up..it is happening.
a lot of my professors in psychiatry can't explicitly let their political leanings be known, but they have STRONGLY hinted that they are pissed off by the weaponization of mental health for political ends.
Actively speaking out and disagreeing with your institution's official view point of "silence/neutrality" is pretty much grounds for termination, Tenure or no Tenure.

Hungarian here, we had our own version predating Trump derangement syndrome called Orbánfóbia (Orbánophoby), but so far no one wanted to treat people for it.
Not just a mental disorder, which is bad enough by its self, but some conservatives are pushing for it to be grounds for involuntary committal.
THAT'S FASCISM
...among many policies already in effect...
If hating what Trump does and represents is a mental disorder, then I am terminal and highly-contagious.
This is a foot in the door for using the mechanisms of criminal psychiatry to brutalize opposition, not a joke.
Kennedy has been talking about putting the "mentally ill" in farming concentration camps since he floated challenging Biden. This is Step 1 to criminalizing political opposition.
Step 1?
I feel like we're already on step 32.
Step 32 of Fascism. This is the part where they make sure there will be no elections.
There will always be elections. They might just be Venezuela style.
It also silences their voices and discredits anything they say so opposition don't gain more support as the GOP dismantle our democracy in front of our eyes.
Relationships will become more strained.

TL;DR:
The bill, backed by two GOP reps (Rep. Warren Davidson of Ohio and Rep. Barry Moore of Alabama) proposes NIH investigation into "Trump Derangement Syndrome" (TDS) and aims to study TDS's origins, media influence, and interventions.
The article compares it to Soviet-era tactics of labeling political dissent as a mental disorder.
Ooh I LOOOOOVE Trump!!!! That's a totally normal thing to say about a politician! You know who else can say that? No one. Not even the best Biden fans...you know he doesn't have fans? Can you believe that?
I love Trump so much I have bought his sneakers, his steaks, his socks, his hats, his shirts, his jorts, his truck decals, his crypto, his dolls, his sunglasses, his guns, his ammo...in fact, I've gone into debt just to buy more of his merch. You know who else has that? No one.
Trump has the most fragile ego ever
Luckily, the research on that is already done:
This implies that the majority of the world has a mental health disorder. Yes, that must be it...
How stupid do these MAGA clowns think people are? And: Are they perhaps projecting their own characteristics onto others?
Or is it perhaps about imprisoning dissidents for no reason?
Hmmm, that sounds familiar. Ahh, yes, Hitler and his henchmen did the same thing...
They are getting away with much bigger atrocities than this. People will absolutely be on board to suddenly have their trump-hating relative actually be mentally ill. Then you don't have to listen to anything they say because they are just crazy.
Even announcing trump derangement syndrome in an official setting so it can be in the news cycle for as long as they want is going to have a powerful impact on the personal, individual level much wider than what he has done this term so far really. Now anyone who disagrees with trump is crazy. That's just best case scenario.
As I said, this is straight out of Hitler's playbook and serves to prepare for the next atrocities. Nazis have traditionally been interested in giving their crimes a legal veneer.
Nope, that's not out of Hitler's playbook, that's out of Stalin's. The Nazis killed psychiatric patients and converted hospitals to barracks; they did not fill them.
Weird I didn't see the second half of your comment when I first replied. You're absolutely right and I'm terrified. The social-political environment and economy that allowed the rise of the nazis in Germany have been happening in America for decades. There are so many parallels and then within 6 months in office a LOT of big stuff is happening really fast. Federal institutions completely gutted, harassment of the employees by their government, deportation of citizens, removing birthright citizenship, and now wanting a medical diagnosis for anyone who disagrees with them.
It is absolutely terrifying and I no longer feel safe sharing my opinion anywhere because I don't know how dangerous it will be in the future.

Will this severe mental disorder help me qualify for disability?
It'll qualify us for the labor camps RFK Jr wants us in at least.
Unlimited mandatory treatment, in South Sudan.
I might be unhinged. I have a desire to call Trump and irrationally yell at him for every problem I have, regardless if it's his fault
I've had one my whole shitty life. The Orange Jackass is just making it easy worse.
Critical Thinking is now a Mental Health Disorder?
Ignorance is strength. Sickness is health.
Trumpitis.
It's an allergy to orange shitbags. not a mental healthdisorder!
Christians doing their loop
Please? Please diagnose with it? I will frame that shit, put it on the wall forever.
You're not going to have anything to hang it with in CECOT
Oops! Looks like I have an incredibly severe mental health disorder. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to treat it.
Unless… maybe I can bring light or bleach into my body - almost like a cleaning. You know, to stop this disorder? I heard Trump’s team is looking into that. Should be interesting.
