to the states official ideology. This seems to be the message with, according to a report, people increasingly labeled mentally ill and being compelled to see psychiatrists for opposing irrational COVID-19 mask mandates. In fact, one law student was reportedly likened to a mass shooter, threatened with permanent legal- profession exclusion, and was told by a school dean, We dont know if youre psychologically capable of following the rules. Welcome to what has been called the weaponization of psychiatry. The Soviet Union was infamous for it (there just must be something wrong with you if you oppose enlightened state ideology, after all), and, chillingly, its now emerging in the United States. So asserted Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson, reporting last night on a student at a prestigious law school who dared question his institutions irrational mask mandate. For one thing, the face-diaper requirement didnt apply to professors; apparently, coronavirus spares those with more degrees than a thermometer (and now we know why Ph.D.s are the education-level-defined group least likely to be vaccinated). What then befell this hapless student, whose identity and school are currently being kept anonymous, was shocking. As Carlson related: Administrators suspended this student from school immediately; then they threatened to call states bar associations to prevent him from becoming a lawyer. And then the school accused him of being mentally ill. As one dean put it, We dont know if youre psychologically capable of following the rules. So as a condition of readmission, the school required the student to submit to a psychological assessment test and then meet with a psychiatrist for a counseling session to see if he was mentally ill. Before doing any of that, the schools deans also required the student to waive his right to medical confidentiality so if the school chose, his results could be made public. You should know that this student was never diagnosed with any sort of mental disorder or acted as though he had one. He is rational, calm, and very high functioning; thats how he got into this law school in the first place. At no time did he make threats against anyone; he merely pointed out that the schools mask policies dont seem to make sense. For saying this, the school likened him to a mass shooter and implied that he was on the verge of committing violence against students. Thats shocking, but its happing in a lot of other places as well, Carlson continued. Weve just spoken to a former member of the army who was referred to psychiatrists and booted out of the military because he refused to wear a mask (video below).
