More Vicious Slander

I'm the target of an ongoing campaign of surveillance, harassment and extremely vicious slander. I have no doubt they're attacking me because I'm now a psychiatric survivor critical of psychiatry and the drug industry. However it might have started, whatever sparked their original interest isn't as relevant to what's going on now as the the mental health related attacks and the associated bullshit and propaganda. I'm someone who would no doubt have been seriously harmed, maybe extremely disabled by psychiatric quackery and fraud. I would consider myself a psychiatric survivor. I withdrew from all psychiatric medications over 4 years ago and went on to make a recovery. I'm now enjoying great physical and mental health despite my situation. That's a big problem for others who can't justify the surveillance and harassment. It's a problem for psychiatry, those quacks need to maintain their genetic brain disease, chemical corrector fraud. Recovery is a problem for quacks who cause pathological changes that they blame on a genetic chemical imbalance.

They have me under surveillance, they know things about me. They know that I drink excessively sometimes and it's not a problem for me or anyone else. They know I withdrew from medication successfully, acquaintances didn't see any change in me. They know I'm healthy, I eat well and that I get plenty of exercise. The things they found out about me are huge problem for psychiatric frauds who want to coerce others into taking their worthless brain damaging, brain disabling drugs. So what they're doing is causing a problem where there wouldn't be one. Defamatory comments about me being violent or violence prone are being made to justify psychiatric coercion. The same thing would be true about any alleged out of control behavior, it's just slander to justify coercion. It's just vicious slander so they can justify taking away my right to make the decisions that led to my recovery and even harming me with the drugs. Psychiatry and the drug industry don't make money on people recovering, they make money on chronic disability and drug dependence. The coercion helps to keep people disabled and dependent.

Stupid People and Magical Powers

There are lies being spread about me. I'm completely non-religious, I really don't have an interest in the subject, it's something I rarely think about. If someone asked me I'd tell them I'm completely non-religious. I have no superstitious beliefs, there's absolutely no belief in astrology or anything like that. Anybody claiming that I believe in magical powers or anything like that is completely nuts. Any claim that I believe anything like that is made up, they're most likely stupid things that the person making the false accusations would think. Something that was either read or overheard by the person caused the person to think stupid things that are unrelated to anything I might have thought. Stupid people think stupid things because they're stupid. Someone who might have overheard me talk about a flame war on Usenet might have got the wrong idea for instance. Dum people think dum things. I think they should be kept away from me and made to mind their own business.

Please Stop the Lies

I'm being viciously slandered. I have never said or done anything sexually offensive or inappropriate in public, it's never happened in the past and there's no chance it would ever happen in the future. Anyone who even suggests that I might have or that I might some time in the future is just viciously defaming me. They're vicious lies being spread behind my back. The accusations involve something called psychological projection, the fantasies and impulses of the person talking about me are usually in some way part of the story they're telling. I could probably prove the accusations are false by first proving they're the result of projection. Repeating any accusations or suggesting there's the slightest possibility of any inappropriate behavior is malicious.

The slightest suggestion that I might be in need of some kind of psychiatric treatment is vicious slander. It's slander that serves the financial interests of psychiatry and drug industry. I'm someone in excellent physical and mental health. I made informed decisions that lead to a full recovery from past mental health problems while worthless psychiatric parasites are making decisions that are disabling and even killing some of the victims of their fraud. Any suggestion that I might be violent in any way is just more vicious slander. It's slander to justify coercive psychiatry. It's slander to help justify psychiatric violence against me.
