    Hey, here’s a great idea. Let’s spend decades normalizing conversations about mental health. I was literally saying to my therapist how I’m glad to be alive at a time when this isn’t demonized last week. This will increase the portion of the population that can undergo treatment without being stereotyped as weak or deviant or whatever.

    Now let’s run for president and have a platform where we target that group in some way to “other” them. This is a great idea. This will get lots of votes. /s

    What a dumbass.

    I don’t care how medicated I am, I’m not harvesting your wellness for you. Asshole.

    I’m not his type though, I’m on a self prescribed dose of marijuana. I may be persuaded to help harvest that wellness.

    Anyway what an idiot.

    If we ignore the brainworm parts, there are some good points here:

    • More funding for rehab facilities (though I’d demand increased oversight and prosecution efforts as well, because the industry is rife with abuse and more subsidies would encourage more abuse if we don’t increase oversight too)
    • Offering nutritional assistance with rehab efforts
    • Offering low-stakes work programs as part of rehab
    • Encouraging community and social interaction outside of the inpatient setting
    • Treating behavioral addictions like social media addiction as genuine addictions
    • Providing options for people who have been over-prescribed or mis-prescribed to correct their regimen under close supervision

    He wants to “concentrate” them into camps where they can receive goverment treatments. How thoughtful.

    You just know Trump begged him to be his running mate.

    That’s funny. I’ve been thinking, every home, or at least community, should have a wellness farm. Pharmacies are an untrustworthy source for connective wellness.

    Guy with actual brain worm, who ate a dog, won’t ‘pick a side’ on the ‘9/11 issue’, thinks vaccines are a giant conspiracy… thinks he is qualified to give mental health advice…

    Though this apparently runs in the family, who decided to lobotomize his aunt and then pretend she did not exist.

      It’s funny. I got an ad for his campaign yesterday about how he won’t force us to wear masks.

      Like, bro. It’s 2024. I see like 1 mask a month at this point.

        I’m guessing rational people and then idiots who scream “jet fuel can’t melt steel beams!”. I get the skepticism and I wouldn’t be surprised if United States politicians allowed 9/11 to happen for political purposes. After all, they have killed and will kill more people for less. Still, I doubt 9/11 was an inside job.

      I was curious about the dog story - apparently he insists it was a goat, and there doesn’t seem to be conclusive evidence that it wasn’t.

      I found this in an article where he would not, however, deny sexual assault.

      Yikes.

    Gardening for your mental health? Sure! Gets you some sunshine and exercise, and a healthy snack if you’re lucky.

    Government farms run by the Brainworm administration? Pass.

    and i’m sure those farms will be loving, and full of support, and address peoples issues and help them over come them.

    and totally not be full of brutalization and forced labor in a desperate attempt to make up for a lack of migrant labor, that will be in the news weekly for new, tragic, and horrific deaths.

      They’ll be learning valuable skills that they can then use to better themselves.

      Like stamping license plates (even those are now printed.) or something .

      Surprise! The farms are for profit institutions run by private contractors!

      In just one easy step you too can have zero accountability and a sky high number of sexual assault and other abuse claims!

    This will be an underground facility where the other hosts hold you down while a new brain worm is forced into your head through your ear.

    I read Animorphs. I know how this thing goes.

    Labor camps. What a novel fucking idea, RFK. It’s almost like you’ve never moved out of your grandfather’s fucked up view of the world, you sad piece of shit.
