Common Law S6 E7: Medicalizing Civil Rights

All this sounds interesting, but you're viewing it from the wrong angle. A shadow system of justice was concocted within the medical field, where doctors are now used to get around people's civil rights as they are currently being enlisted as investigators and judges through proxy by the police and the courts. They ignore rights to face their accuser or to even know the accusations against them as they engage in gaslighting and other manipulative tactics to elicit a response from their patients in order to substantiate lies, and where this doesn't work, they just say in the record that they've counseled their patient on an issue such as addiction, then boom, that person has addiction on their records without even having to be an addict. They're rebuilding Nazi Germany in America, and they're getting more power through the use of these tactics medicalizing civil rights. You don't even know it unless you're afflicted by it. The medical field shouldn't be used as a proxy for the legal system. They're not bound by law to the ethics of government, they barely know anything about the ethics of government, and giving them this power allows for abuse without recourse. It's a mistake. I hope you'll consider what I'm saying, think of the implications, and resist it. It's too dangerous to give them all this power and grant them immunity from prosecution and civil suits at the same time. At the very foundation of our government is a system of checks and balances. I am just one person who they defrauded of life, I couldn't stop them, but maybe you can. Just look at how the states have made it impossible to bring suits against medical personnel, they creep little by little, they take away accountability, and with that goes their filter against wrong doing. Little by little and they are weaponized against the people who go to them for help, because they don't understand what they are doing, but they have this burden on them, so they do what they are told. The Nazis did the same thing. Don't let medical professionals have any power in the people civil rights, let them practice medicine, and stay in their own lane. Please be a voice of reason in dismantling this system.
