  • Yesterday, browsing wikipedia, stumbled on articles that talked about this very thing, on how Russia took advantage of mental health systems. They started to classify nonconforming, rebels as mentally ill. A frequently used diagnosis was sluggish schizophrenia. Anyone who was socially awkward, thought differently got this diagnosis. Cuz if someone is questioning our government, they must be sick in the head

    They used this heavily for decades to discredit political rivals, forcible confinement, lock them away, work camps. Think gulag archipelago.



  • I change laptops frequently. Used to buy songs from iTunes and every time I changed laptops, transferred music over, I’d lose access to them. Would have to go thru insane process to be allowed to listen to the music I’d paid for.

    Similar thing would happen with some software, Adobe especially.

    If you’re going to treat me like a criminal, then I might as well be a criminal. Same with purchasing movies on Amazon.

    I tried to pay for minecraft, but 2 hours later, Microsoft wouldn’t let me. Kept trying to make me an Hotmail account.

    Growing trend in software I’m not happy with. No longer allowed to own the things we buy, and forced to hand over my email, phone number, address, name, create account… used to be, you could just buy things, simply. That was that.

    Corporations are getting drunk with power, overreaching, infiltrating people life.

    Also, if in poverty, no food, homeless, etc. If I can’t afford what I need. And can get it another way, I will
