If you have a brain and can think, you find that you too would extremely hate this shitbag.

    The last person to introduce TDS legislation got busted soliciting a minor for sex. Let’s see what she gets

    If someone is a hateful prick and you greatly dislike them for their words and actions then it is a natural reaction, not a “syndrome”.

    Uhhhhhhhh! The Nazis did this. anyone who disagreed, caused trouble, or eventually was Luke-warm to National Socialism was seen as “sick”, “degenerate”, or " deranged". This was a classification that meant death for some, exile for others, and terror for anyone who witnessed your fate.

      It’s a classic move by totalitarian states, Fascist Italy and the Soviet Union used the same tactic (North Korea continues to use it). And unfortunately it was pretty effective. No one really believed the people shut away were actually crazy, but they sure were scared of being disappeared to an “asylum”, “psychiatric facility”, or “reeducation camp”.

      Basically. They’re trying to associate dissent with mental illness just like they’ve been trying to associate LGBTQIA+ with obscenity.

      Which means the mentally ill will be the next “then they came for” for republicans and the next “under the bus” for democrats.

    I think this study should research people who are so obsessed with supporting trump that they lose touch with reality

    They’ve been setting us up for years. “Liberalism is mental illness.” Stalin also sent many dissenters to die in mental hospitals.

      Same. I don’t understand how this is even happening. It feels like a parallel earth.

    Much like Florida’s campaign to make trans identity into a mental illness, this is a long con to give prosecutorial power against people at a later date when they decide the mentally ill are, “useless eaters” as the Nazis called them. It may seem extreme, but RFK has already signaled a disdain for neurodivergent people that’s blatantly ableist and borderline eugenicist.

    I unironically support this insofar as actual academics conduct the study. It would be hilarious to watch the GOP in Congress try to suppress the report and then it gets leaked after it concludes correctly that TDS is just a made up term and there’s nothing deranged about disliking the inhumane, greedy, sociopathic machinations of the most powerful man on earth whose demented whims crash markets and violate human rights. Paying money to find out why people dislike a legitimately evil person when people will just straight up tell you but you don’t want to listen is too funny.

    Just another arrow in the traitorous regime’s quiver when imprisoning/trafficking/killing anyone that doesn’t prostrate themselves before Orange Jesus.

    Soon your racist shitbag MAGAt family members will be able to call a hotline after Thanksgiving dinner accusing you of TDS and you’ll get a nice visit from the police, then never to be seen again.
