    I’ve read some of this person’s stuff on their substack and I don’t think that their point is that therapy is bourgeois, even though this tiny bit out of context can seem that way

    I think most of us would largely agree with they have to say about how psychiatry is fundamentally a capitalist/colonial institution

    My only big critique is that they take their anarchist based thinking to the conclusion of being against “authoritarian” leftists but outside of that, I think they’re right for the most part and should be engaged with in good faith

      I think they’re a grifter and don’t represent anarchistic views very well.

      And do this type of stuff consistently. Have these pretty good critiques of capitalist institutions and then say some absurd stuff and act like the reader should just ignore that part.
