This question is loaded with emotionally charged terms. I never stated that Psychiatry was a big-pharma conspiracy. If I stated that it was a bourgeois tool of oppression; then I redact that statement, as it's not ''inherently'' bourgeois. It manifests in capitalism, not just ''bourgeois'' capitalism.

Yes, Psychiatry is indeed used by the bourgeoisie to drug the workers into submission; one could argue that Psychiatry is a tool of the [[Ideological State Apparatus]] formed by the state as a need to quietly oppress the oppressed class.
