... will the psychiatric community grow a pair and confirm what everyone with an IQ above room temperature already knows:

WE ARE RULED BY BLOODTHIRSTY PSYCHOPATHS WITH THE MORAL COMPASSES OF REPTILES!

And by "ruled," I am not necessarily referring to elected officials, though many certainly qualify. Isn't that right, Cheney?

No, I am referring to the corporate entities that rule our lives. Or, more accurately, the leaders of corporate entities who are irredeemably evil down to their DNA, and have zero concern for the harm their malicious depredations do to others.

But they cover their malevolent asses very effectively, and keep the Great Unwashed cowed and afraid through a multitude of intimidation tactics, like demonizing women and minorities such as gays and Black people, and of course, giving police a license to kill people for no reason. Or for the crime of being Black. And let's not forget civil forfeiture,which lets cops rob you even if you haven't been charged with a crime, let alone convicted of one.

The warp and weave of corporatism co-opts and exploits all of these malignant perversions of the social contract, including the diseased lies of the Religious Right and its jihad against women's rights, but it seems no one cares enough to DO anything about it. Like voting Republicans out of office.

Wish I could rec this a million to times. onecaliberal Aug 2015 #1
