When you read about some personality disorders, there's all this talk about the nature of the disorder being rooted in a failure to conform to societies "norms".
What I wonder is who or where do these "norms" originate?
So isn't it logical to assume that if these "norms" were eliminated, the personality disorders aren't actually disorders anymore? And why must everyone conform to societies norms in the first place?
I think that a person who actually does adhere to these norms is more screwed up than those who don't!
I believe that what the world really needs is a good holocaust!
American society is too easy and convenient. So people have lost focus of what's real and what's fake.
When you look at what's going on around the globe, it's hard to see where conforming to societies norms means anything.
Consumerism is sort of a checks and balances mechanism. Put a great amount of focus on having "things", and then threaten to take those "things" away if the person doesn't adhere to the norms of society.
It's all an illusion!
And if you don't buy into that illusion, then they label you with some sort of "disorder". And dope you up and fill your head full of garbage ideas!
It's like the old military addage, "artillery conquers, and infantry occupies". In this case, medication is the artillery, and therapy is the infantry. Your mind is the target, and everyone has some sort of mechanism that hardens their mind against occupation by outside forces. So the medication "softens" the target and removes that fortification, then once your mind is "softened" by the medication, the therapists move in to occupy.
We wouldn't want people running around thinking they know what's best for themselves would we?
How would you control a person who thinks for themselves, and retains control over their own destiny? And even worse, a person like that might actually infect others with these crazy ideas of independant thought!
