Atrocities hidden in language are a method used by both the military and the mental illness industry to keep their image acceptable and
saleable. Take for example psychiatric and psychological treatment.
Many think that when a person is placed in a locked facility with no trial they incarcerate the inmate illegally. If a medical staff runs the locked building, people believe, due to advertising, that the “patient requires hospitalization.” Drugs change to “medication” when prescribed. Medications somehow avoid the current medical blitz on drug abuse. Supposedly only self-medicators abuse chemicals. Electrical shocks change to electroconvulsive therapy. When a person takes a razor and carves little lines into her arms, doctors call this activity self-mutilation. When a physician saws into a person’s skull and slices out portions of the brain, doctors call this psychosurgery.
