No, I don’t think your assessment of the Breggin’s motivation is correct. The Breggins are actually very concerned about labeling what happened during Covid to the average citizens as “psychosis”. If you understand the definition of psychosis, you will know that it means a diagnosable mental disorder that needs treatment. And what kind of treatments are available today for mental disorders? Generally medication and expensive, intrusive, unscientific psychotherapy. Basically it would be a disaster. Malone is an MD. He knows what “psychosis” means. It’s not an oversight for him to use that term.

The Breggin’s argument is that what happened was not a mental disorder of the average citizens but rather a psychological and militarized attack by global predators, therefore to label what happened as a psychosis is akin to victim blaming in the Breggin’s view.

They have been speaking out against over diagnosing and over medicating people for decades and this diagnosis that Malone has made of why people acted the way they did follows the pattern of over-diagnosing and also at the same time, Malone is dismissing the perpetrators.

Desmet called it mass formation, which I believe is more of a description of what happened and not a diagnostic phrase. Desmet completely dismisses any sort of conspiracy. This seems like a poorly formed opinion to me because there is a lot of evidence of a global conspiracy. Thus the reason I would love to hear them discuss the topic in a friendly but authentic way.

I find myself in the middle of the issue between the Breggin’s and Desmet. I completely disagree with Malone, that people suffered from psychosis during the pandemic before the roll out of the vaccines.

Malone may be an awesome guy. I don’t think so but I do not know for sure. I’ve been observing closely because I also thought he was a good guy originally. I think there is enough evidence to have changed my mind but I am always open to new evidence. Maybe he is, maybe he isn’t. We may never really know for sure. Seeing his contracts would help but that’s unlikely to happen so I’ll keep observing and looking for clues.

Holy Cow Brandy. You have analyzed this in detail and I cannot disagree with anything-- I was just pointing out that Breggins has a turf control problem besides not liking Malone's opinion on this theory. I still believe he is so right any minor discrepency in the opinion was enough to set him off against whoever fails to see it EXACTLY his way.

I agree with Breggins' view as you describe it. Malone / Desmet are wrong in the view of no conspiracy. The thing is, this is JUST a theory they fail to agree on. It is of little consequence if they agree; all that matters is they both act against the perps. From What I can tell, Malone does. Breggin, too apparently.

Surely, they are both flawed humans, as we all are.

Yes, it’s true that everyone is a flawed human being.

If we want to survive in today’s world, we have to figure out who the people are with malicious intent. That is very difficult because people with malicious intent are often very good at hiding it. I’ll keep observing to see if I can figure it out. I’m sure you are doing the same. Best of luck to both of us.
