I'm a pro-science marxist who supports socialist psychiatry to solely oppress the bourgeoisie; and antipsychiatry otherwise.
- I view Psychiatry as a psuedoscientific tool of oppression disguised as medicinal aid where the drug industry extracts wealth directly from the oppressed class or underclass. Psychiatry can be used by the proletariat to suppress the bourgeoisie, hence my (critical) support for Psychiatry in socialist countries.
Positions
Lingustics
I support IALs, mostly Esperanto, as a counter-push against linguistic imperialism and to aid global communication between humans, which is particularly important given the development of hyperconnectivity and internetworks. Esperanto is an excellent language suited for being an IAL; it is not perfect (male-default grammar exists and some root words end with the same letters as suffixes); but it is better than English, and a perfect IAL is impossible anyway.
However, I do not support Zamenhof's idealism of an international language being the sole bringer of world peace; class warfare would still exist despite a monolingual humanity, hence making world peace impossible.
I do not approve English as an international language; it mostly spread through colonialism[1] and it is still imposed on other countries today in computer science (through U.S dominance of the computer industry); and catered to one demography: Anglos.
