Just like political propaganda networks, psychiatry seems to run its own disinformation machine. It operates like a narrative factory, and (fake) online forums are one of its easiest battlegrounds. The trick is subtle: fake “patients,” sockpuppet accounts, and staged debates that always end with “See? Meds saved my life.” Even the fake accounts who play to be a bit "against" it start to doubt their view a bit. That’s not authenticity that’s manufactured consensus. Controlling the narrative online is cheaper and more effective than any billboard. A few “friendly” moderators, a handful of sockouppets, and suddenly an entire forum looks balanced and real while dissenters get flagged as unstable. That’s how psychiatry protects its image: Not by helping people heal, but by engineering an illusion to hunt for the vulnerable in society.
