Summary
Five Republican Minnesota state senators plan to introduce a bill classifying “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS) as a mental illness, defining it as “acute paranoia” about Trump’s presidency.
The bill argues TDS causes hysteria, verbal hostility, and aggression toward Trump supporters.
Critics argue this represents a dangerous politicization of mental health diagnoses that could suppress political expression.
The bill will be read Monday before the Minnesota Senate Health and Human Services Committee, where Democrats hold a narrow majority.
This is the most dystopian shit I’ve read this week. Impressive, all things considered.
So explaining reality to a Trump supporter is Trump Derangement Syndrome? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The real mental illness here is the “Trump following syndrome”, where people still support him despite what he does.
So that shit won’t be covered by insurance either, so here we are right back at square one, you illiterate fucks
Since when do senators diagnose shit?
The senators who proposed this should be removed from office. This is beyond a farce.
And what Trump is doing it not? The only laws that still exist, is the ones that repress people they don’t like.
It’s a social construct. Much of the population wont understand due to lacking education and deficient knowledge base. Hopefully there will be further explanations for laymen in the future DSM5.
I’ve always thought Trump Derangement Syndrome better described MAGATurds. THEY are the ones who are absurdly and inexplicably in love with him, no matter how poorly he treats them.
And this is exactly why those “red flag” laws are a bad idea.
For example, the state can determine anyone who hates Trump is not able to procure a firearm…
Geez, all of this because Obama just had to wear that tan suit in 2014.
that bougie dijon mustard he used on his hotdog.
So Gender Dysphoria is bullshit, but TDS requires tax payer money thrown at it…
Shut up GOP you’re drunk
TDS was always a sham, a way to write off all concerns and protests of Trump. “Oh don’t listen to them, those who question Fearless Leader only do so because they’re insane. He is perfect and loves everybody”
Gaslighting 101: blame your victim(s)
the fucked up part is if there is a president after Trump it will take decades to fix the damage he did in 2 months.
we’re still suffering from Regan’s decisions
There will be a president after him. He cannot live forever, thank fuck.
Whether that president is actually democratically elected is yet to be seen.
Honestly if the US doesn’t have a democratically elected president in 4 years its not going to have a president ever, given the last 2 months I doubt there would be anything left to be president of if Trump manages to keep himself in powr for however long he has left to live.
This is a test. They’re seeing if they can outlaw objecting to Dear Leader by legally classifying it as a dangerous psychological condition.
This is not about mental health diagnoses. This is the pregame to the American edition of the night of the long knives.
This is what Putin does to Russians who criticise him, eg making anti-ukraine war stickers or graffiti.
This is also what used to happen to women who wanted to get a divorce or generally wouldn’t obey her father or husband. They called it hysteria and thought that it was because of the ‘wandering womb’, yep they thought her womb was wandering around her body, woo woo.
Look up what they did to JFK’s sister. It’s fucking wild. It was considered a “reasonable treatment” at the time.
Its insane, I guess they do want to bring back those traditional values - of having someone committed for disagreeing with you.
