Let us not forget the true meaning of Thanksgiving Day is to give thanks to Native Americans that saw European settlers struggling to survive during their first Winter, & in grave danger of starving & freezing to death. These Native Americans showed compassion, kindness, & generosity, & brought these settlers baskets of food, skins & blankets for warmth, & more, including friendship.
Through the centuries, most Americans have forgotten the true meaning of Thanksgiving Day, & have increasingly shown less regard, respect, & appreciation of the Native Americans.
Let us remember that America is their longtime homeland. And let us remember other people's that have been displaced, marginalized, & subjected to apartheid-like conditions by settlers in their homelands.
The day following Thanksgiving Day is Native American Heritage Day.
Thank you Dr. Bandy for your courage in sharing your expert insights for the past 8 years and alerting Americans to the danger of certain psychologically compromised government leaders.
Blessings to you and your family doctor, this Thanksgiving. Thank you for your years of dedication and taking such substantial risks to warn your country. I am forever grateful to you and your team. God bless you.
Thank you for this powerfully eloquent and inspirational piece on the Reality of Oneness.
Today, on the annual Day of Thanksgiving, we ought recognize the healing energy and power of Gratitude and consciously practice and develop this quality from within ourselves. We can strengthen our gratitude muscle for the betterment of All.
I am so very grateful to you for all your relentless courageous efforts to educate the public concerning the dangerousness of the pathology of fascism and those individuals who crave and chase after it. I learned a tremendous amount and gained keen insight from your plethora of interviews, discussions and articles. In addition to your expertise in the field of psychiatry, I especially appreciate your Masters degree in Divinity. This shines through in all your interviews and writings.
May the Universe bestow many blessings on you, always. Wishing you all good things, Dr Lee.
Dr. Bandy, you are a Godsend! I, and all of us, appreciate you, your hard work, your words of wisdom, and the path you are letting us join you on through this site. Have a wonderful, restful, peaceful Thanksgiving weekend!
Hope. NONE of the orange baby man's clown show would be happening if he was disqualified day one after forensic psychiatrist Dr Bandy X Lee's report of the five dangerous mental pathologies of Donald Trump.
Why much of our society is in discontent? Why people feel a void in their heart? Why people feel an inner dissatisfaction in today's world? What is the cause?
It's a complex matter but part of the answer i found was not in the books of religion or psychology or spirituality. A part of the answer is in economic history of our world and historical materialism that shaped our social thinking. I recommend two great books. One from the past century and one from this. The Affluent society by John Kenneth Galbraith and Technofeudalism by Yanis Varoufakis.
Affluent society explains many things of the world including how human desires and needs are created in today's world. Technofeudalism is a prophecy about technology and how it created worst form of capitalism and power of people like Elon Musk who are now the real controllers of political cretins like Trump.
Thank you. What I call the practical next step is in using this perspective in the face of vicious ruthlessness. I believe that at least some people have to survive to be able to take that next step, though I'm no martyr. Vicious ruthlessness goes a long way very fast (see blitzkrieg) for people who are that way. I hope to outlive it leading to their ruin in the long run (which it usually does), while being among those who survive for the betterment for all.
Beautiful message for a beautiful day. 🤝 My sister faces a life-challenging illness and her first concerns are for her family, her neighbors, especially the elderly ones who are lonesome. 😇 She threw an amazing dinner party for so many of us; we all contributed, but she made the day special. 🤗 This message by her example redounds to her gratitude and deepens mine. 🙏 G-D bless you and your family, Dr Lee, on this most blessèd of American holidays. ❤️
🔸️FITNESS FOR DUTY EVALUATIONS that are mandatory, like the military for high responsibility positions, would have stopped Trump before he got within a mile of the White House.
Bandy X Lee, Steven Hassan, and 100 other psychiatrists agree Trump has five dangerous mental pathologies as listed in the books "The More Dangerous Case of Donald Trump" and "The Psychology Of Trump Contagion - An Existential Threat to American Democracy and All Humankind".
"Containing Trump Contagion and Healing from Mental Pathology in Politics"
🔸️Fitness for Duty Evaluations start with everyone who interacts with the individual in question, and when red flags start to appear, 'say something.'
The US Military has procedures to follow that require individuals in question to have a Fitness for Duty Evaluation. Voters must demand the House and Senate do the same.
"Stephen Xenakis- Fitness for Duty Exams: Preventing Autocratic Abuse"
🔸️Outside the military are professionals like Dr. Bandy X. Lee who has several dozen colleagues all of whom are highly qualified to do Fitness for Duty Evaluations.
The U.S. House and Senate have several mechanisms to enforce their rules, including:
* Leadership
* Committees
* Floor Procedures
* Party Discipline
It's important to note that these mechanisms are not always used consistently or effectively. The more voters demand mentally fit leaders the more the House and Senate will comply.
🔸️I like what forensic psychologist Dr. Bandy X. Lee says that fascism and authoritarianism are just dangerous mental pathologies that worm their way into politics.
Everyone on Earth deserves and demands leadership that is mentally fit.
Fitness for Duty Evaluations performed by well respected psychiatrists ensures every country has leaders who do not serve their own power, but serve their own people.
With a pool of mentally fit candidates, we then have all the elections we wish.

You are a true patriot in my book!
If only she had been allowed to speak on main stream media.
Thank you for sharing such clarity.

What a wonderful essay to greet the morning by!
Each day is a ministry of mental health. lol
