This is a very valuable essay. It has been long overdue. Psychologism is the basis for a creeping in totalitarianism that escapes its victims since they cannot identify the manipulation (paradigm change!) from the political concept of the citizen as the foundation of a democratic order to the concept of the individual psychology, where the individual is not the carrier and subject of a working faculty of judgement, but a bundle of needs, drives, inclinations and preferences with the point of the possible deviation into mental illness of something that is object of a forensic classification, either to be treated juridically or psychiatricalky. Since the citizens are conditioned to BELIEVE in the latter as taught in compulsory schooling, the teachers and the education system are recruits and executes of an immense crime of systematic abuse of children, where the notorious sexual abuses are a blip compared with the implementation of the crime called the intergenerational relation, in the last consequence the postmodern states.
And all this scratches only at the surface of the machination organized power has successfully institutionalized by means of the monoculture of big organization, the totalitarian core of which is indifferent with respect to the question, whether it is state, political or private. The discernment does not provide the information about the functioning of a politico-economic-military system that has found a lot of ways to circumvent the formal barriers that 19th century implementations to limit political and economic power had installed to prevent the fallback into tyranny.
Exactly. I wrote similar comments in a bio I had to submit to a college admissions committee in 2014 about being abused by psychiatrists & Big Pharma in order to be admitted for a third Ph.D. I also offered the committee the late Paul Farmer's explanation of Johann Galtung's 1969 "Structural Violence Theory" for my life's lack of personal accomplishments.
I must point out that Harvard's humanist, Dr. Paul Farmer died in February 2022 of acute cardiac arrest (shortly after taking the new vaccine, according to another Substack author).
