mental health: why the world (aka mankind) is as crazy as it is – incomplete definition, but at least three reasons for starters – nature disconnected lifestyles – money – bigpharma-tv
incomplete definition, but at least three reasons for starters:
- mankind (aka humans) are a part of nature
- some religions made mankind believe for centuries, that humans, are “above” nature and thus not a part of nature, resulting in beyond-reasonable exploitation of the environment and little care for other species
- but without the bacteria and fungi in the soil breaking down organic matter, the every land will become a desert mankind will starve
- the monetary system(s) is “selling the future for short term profits”
- the monetary system(s) are abstracting humans away from cooperation with nature (the consumer is consuming handing money to the farmer that is producing, the consumer never meets the farmer, the plant, the field where his/her food comes from and does not care (?) where it comes from (increasingly people care where their food is coming from and how it is produced (fair, organic? or exploitative and cancer causing ?)
- mankind (aka humans) feel “disconnected” and become selfish and arrogant (greed) unaware that this disconnection means death in the long term
- inequality: “poor Americans are much more likely to face mental health problems than rich ones”
- more and more violence on TV: why, actually?
- did you know that in France TV is “illegal” for children under 3, it used to be illegal for children as well in Germany, but SOMEHOW and SOMEONE thinks it’s “good” to have children watch traumatic brutal violence on TV? (WHO IS THIS PSYCHOPATH? PROBABLY BIG PHARMA!?)
- because that is what this will do: make humans blunting humans on compassion, one of the MOST important features (says the Dalailama) if one want’s to be happy
- “Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.” (Dalai Lama XIV, The Art of Happiness)
- “If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.” (Dalai Lama XIV, The Art of Happines)
- there are even more quotes
- “Television viewing hurts the development of children under 3 years old and poses a certain number of risks, encouraging passivity, slow language acquisition, over-excitedness, troubles with sleep and concentration as well as dependence on screens.” (source: 2008 ecochildsplay.com)
- imho, WHY is there so much violence on TV? so BIG PHARMA CREATES SICKNESS IN PEOPLE AND CAN SELL MORE PILLS?
- did you know that in France TV is “illegal” for children under 3, it used to be illegal for children as well in Germany, but SOMEHOW and SOMEONE thinks it’s “good” to have children watch traumatic brutal violence on TV? (WHO IS THIS PSYCHOPATH? PROBABLY BIG PHARMA!?)
so what needs to be done?
- reconnect with nature, hand grow as much food as you can, where you can, and if it’s only a balcony with a little reddish and broccoli
- instead of buying new (bad quality), try to make it yourself or try to fix old things
- what is your vision of a positive (hopefully for everyone) future?
- FIX THE GOD DAMN INEQUALITY!
- let’s start by AMAZON APPLE GOOGLE FACEBOOK AND ALL OTHER TAX DODGERS PAYING PROPER (AT LEAST 10% ON INCOME) TAXES!

“our findings show the striking and growing challenge that these disorders pose for health systems in developed and developing regions”
“improvement in population health is only possible if countries make the prevention and treatment of mental and substance use disorders a public health priority”

peacefully and violently ways of leveling wealth Inequality – Walter Scheidel: The Great Leveler – Violence and the History of Inequality
while this book says, only “catastrophe” can reset inequality in society…
… peaceful ways are also possible.
there is hope… because: peaceful leveling is POSSIBLE!
Dr Roberto Iacono (Associate Professor in Economics and Social Policy at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU))
“inequality decreased significantly in Finland mainly due to inclusive growth from 1850 to 1900 in the absence of both disasters and wars”
democracy vs money?
and this Chase Bank advertisement surely shows what the problems are (the almost complete LOSS of CONTROL of the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED POLITICIANS over the (largely mafia fraudulent) FINANCE and TAX AVOIDANCE sector aka the finance sector aka THE BANKS (including the reckless cash money printing central banks then effectively blackmailing the gov whenever this goes wrong (2008 subprime-(bank)-financial crisis)).
while those memes are funny…
it is important to listen to both sides, because one sided views WILL be bad informed (here the general media do a very very poor job).
same author:
Scheidel: “how to fix democracy”
- nationalism will make things worse
- Hitler did some “good” at the beginning (creating jobs with government money (building highways) and making farmers get better fair pay, before going “full mad man believing to be god” killing millions, destroying jobs & wealth & genocide
- of course: the rich are very afraid of reforms (tax and gov taking away banks, companies and real estate for compensation) & revolutions (taking away of banks, companies and real estate without compensation , which can be very turbulent violent (French revolution)).
- “fun” fact: the Russian Zar (ex King of Russia) actually wanted to reform Russia like UK, but the revolution was “faster” and reforms could not be implemented fast enough (Zar basically like the Queen of UK down from power but keeping some privileges)
THE RICH SHOULD ALSO BE AFRAID AND AVOID WAR AT ALL COSTS BECAUSE WHAT COMES AFTER WILL GREATLY reduce their wealth!
there is also his pretty depressing power point presenting the book…
