Identity Politics Is a Cause of Mental Illness

I'm very excited that this important idea is getting more exposure.

The Human Toll of "Wokeness"

Today's clinical psychologists often are complicit in the excesses of identity politics.
/ Eye on the News / Politics and law, The Social Order
Andrew Hartz
We live in a politicized era. Politics, particularly identity politics, are now woven through our educational, entertainment, technology, and medical institutions. This has taken a toll not only on our culture but also on individuals' mental health.
The causal chain is clear. Proponents of identity politics attack people for their beliefs, values, race, or sex. They intimidate their targets into self-censoring; in some cases, they ruin careers. Those on the receiving end of these attacks inevitably experience distress and sometimes even develop symptoms of mental illness.
Consider a person falsely accused of racism at work. He may be required to "prove" that he doesn't harbor conscious or unconscious biases. His entire career could rest on the judgments of a boss or a diversity committee. If he fails to sway them, he may get fired, face career-ending reputational damage, or see opportunities for advancement closed off. Even if he "wins," he may lose the esteem of his colleagues.
Several aspects of this experience could harm his mental health. The Kafkaesque pseudo-legal proceedings could induce paranoia and a sense of powerlessness. The resulting career worries could lead to sleepless nights or panic attacks. The public nature of the allegations could isolate and stigmatize him, even if he is innocent. If he expresses his understandable frustration, his accusers may present that as proof of his guilt and bad character.
...
False accusations of bias are not, of course, the only example of politicized culture harming people's mental health. Another issue is self-censorship. Those who refrain from saying what they think often struggle with isolation; if no one knows what you really believe, you can feel alone, even if you have many "friends." Self-censorers can develop a "false self," an insincere, performative persona that, over time, weakens their connection to their identity and leaves them feeling empty, lost, or internally numb. Being forced to withhold one's opinion is humiliating, a sign of inferior status. And people who self-censor must think twice before they speak, stifling humor, creativity, and other joys of life. Such repression could contribute to anxiety, anger, or depression.
...
Unfortunately, the mental-health field is failing to address these issues....
Clinical psychologists need to study how identity politics affects people's mental health, and what interventions, if any, will help. The field today refuses to do so, and as a result, the victims of this ideology are among the most poorly served populations in the country. The problem is worsened considerably by the reality that many therapists, academics, and professional organizations actively promote identity politics. They argue that masculinity is toxic, vilify conservative viewpoints, and advocate for censorship. These actions contribute to widespread distrust of the profession and keep people who need treatment from seeking it.

He seems to be mostly talking about the mental health damage woke culture inflicts on the people attacked by wokies.

But the wokies themselves are the most deranged and destroyed by the woke mind virus.

Meanwhile, wokies are trying to frighten and upset each other enough that other wokies will commit suicide, which they imagine will help their political cause.

A person posting on Reddit claims a family member and LGBTQ+ activist killed herself because of the election outcome. Meanwhile, the queer and trans activist group Trevor Project says they are experiencing an overload of s—icide related calls.

Happy Warriors vs. The Depressed Left: Mental Health and Political Identity

Scott Adams explores the stark contrast in mental health between Republicans and Democrats.

Republicans, with their focus on external factors like family, faith, and country, embody the characteristics of "happy warriors," leading to better mental well-being.

In contrast, he describes Democrats as often inward-focused on personal identity and experiences, which he correlates with higher rates of depression and anxiety.

19 I used to think that mental illness was genetic or the result of some severe trauma, like a girl I knew who was knocked off her horse riding in the woods and lay in the dirt for like an hour, unconscious, her whole personality changed and she was literally dumber.

But with Covid I have come to realize that mental illness is fragile as physical, that mental trauma and shock can cause at least temporary madness among people. Look at what fear of getting sick turned people into during that time, look at how some are STILL affected by it.

Gaslight seemed like a stretch to me, you can't really drive someone mad by screwing with them over a long time period but... at least some clearly you can. These people honestly really seem to believe the insane crap they are stating, while clearly not believing it.

I mean, if you REALLY thought Trump was that big a threat and you were really in that kind of danger... would you post about it on social media with a video and clear links to your name and location???

Now we wait and see how he acts on these promises. I really hope that voices like @SoledadUrsua & @hamill_law & so many others who KNOW Los Angeles & California can be heard by a much broader audience.

62 Allow me to simplify. It's not complex. When you put a collection of self-centered, self-righteous, self-important narcissists in the same room, they are going to point outward to explain all their own personal shortcomings.

Missing is critical thought. Missing is humor (because humor lessens the importance, and therefore, their importance). Missing is contrary opinion because their arguments don't hold up (see critical thought). To challenge this philosophy with ridicule or facts can't be ignored, because such betrayal lessens their own personal worth. However, the inability to support their position is equally unappetizing, because they can't. Enter "Your words are violence", and "we need safe spaces."

Short Version: "Wokeness" is an all encompassing EXCUSE for the failings, shortcomings, and limitations of the individual. Such failings are highlighted by those who live their lives in an opposite fashion.

The Cure: Ridicule. Lots and lots of ridicule. Strong hard truth, and the willingness to say "No."

Wristband Express, Blue awareness Wristbands -

Blue seems to be the most popular color to represent diseases, disorders, syndromes, viruses, and social issues; it's even the color for Canada's National Non Smoking Week.
Some of the diseases and viruses represented by the color blue include West Nile virus, colon and colorectal cancer, dystonia, and myositis.
Causes including addiction recovery awareness, craniosynostosis awareness, and foster care awareness are also represented by blue. Dark and light blue together represent hydrocephalus awareness.
Other shades of blue are also used, such as light blue representing chronic illness, men's health, prostate cancer awareness, and twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). Navy blue is used to represent chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), Epstein-Barr virus, and restless leg syndrome. Royal blue is used to promote awareness of child abuse, and pale blue signifies achalasia awareness.

172 I wonder if DOGE will be able to audit the CIA
Posted by: vmom deport deport deport at November 15, 2024 07:12 PM (Wx316)

Sure.

DOGE: So what useful function to you serve here?
CIA man: Well I spy on Iran using satellites...
DOGE: You are fired for revealing secrets.

DOGE So what do you do here?
CIA man 2:
DOGE: nothing? You have 10 minutes to clear your desk for being redundant.

.....

Given how wrong the CIA is about ...well everything, they missed the fall of the USSR when my school paper was discussing it in every issue, flushing out would be best. If by chance someone is useful and trustworthy we can hire them back.

As I've been saying for years now:

The internet is an insanity generator or perhaps magnifier or multiplier.

Take any stupid, insane, kookoobananas idea or thought that you've ever had...put it on the internet and before long you can find probably a hundred or more people worldwide who not only agree with you but support and affirm your crazy idea/stupid thoughts.

But, now it's not just Joe Blow's crazy thoughts, your seeing respected sources like the MSM or teachers or politicians flooding the internet with ideas, and "facts" and "news" which in no way reflect reality.

And the stupidity or easily led or broken or borderline or innocents follow them straight down the rabbit hole.

Clearly, some people just can't use the internet in the same way that some people can't handle alcohol.

Not sure what the solution is. But, there seem to be a lot of evil a-holes purposely making our lives worse so that they can gain power.

175 Was shocked walking through (an overwhelmed terminal) Dulles yesterday to see a snack/souvenir stand selling Trump and Harris stuff. Harris stuff, sure - it's North Korea there. But MAGA t-shirts? Best part - Harris shirts were on a rack placed out into the corridor, "clearance", $9.99. Donald stuff back in the store, full price. Delicious.

Would think the zampolit or oblast party committee rep would have nixed such unsavory behavior in a place like NoVa.

256 Don't underestimate the Covid vaccines role in this. The craziest people had the most shots. Now I know correlation does not prove causation but there is a lot of evidence that the vaccines may affect brain health.

260 As cool as it would be to see Our Lord ground and pound the Pharisees, I don't think that's what planned here. And I doubt the fighter and Jesus square off.

Supposedly there's an AI Jesus out there now, that lets you "chat with Jesus". This can only end in misery and mockery.

Nah, that's not what we believe

Our actions affect our lives and how we end up, we are responsible for what we do, it just always ends up the way God means it to.

271 We live in a politicized era.

NO. We are NOT.
Once again, we are living in an era where a RELIGION (called Progressivism) has taken over from the Christian religion which built Western Civilization. Its morals are warped from Christian ones (they've spent decades transforming the view of those morals so they still look Christian, but really aren't). Its main doctrines involve hedonism (sex in all its variations, freely, without consequence) and transhumanism (the idea that we can decide what to be, evolve ourselves, and defeat Nature due to Science and Reason).

The key is this religion is one of conversion by stealth, and compliance by the overwhelming power of societal censure and government power - just like Islam. THAT is where the supposed "politicization" comes in. But it's not the politics dividing us, it's the RELIGION.

273 I do wonder, what is it that's really making them feel this way?

It's a religion, Russell. A dominating one, that is incredibly cult-like. And, like all cults, a large number of mentally struggling people go deep into it. DEEP. And, then, when the alien spaceship doesn't show to take them off to paradise*, they lose it as their entire worldview crumbles.

(* Even worse, when a spaceship approaches, and it's shot down by an air defense system. Heh.)
