Seriously, from the description it is clear that the patients are sane and the people forcing them into treatment are nuts. There will come a day when the present panic is compared unfavorably to the Salem Witch Trials - because the Salem Witch Trials only proceeded for a relatively limited time in a limited place before even the religious zealots behind it said "too much!" - whereas our current moral panic has gone global and has involved millions of people accepting blatant falsehoods. This is going to go down in future textbooks for sure. Baldur (visiting from GirlChat) |
