Gender dysphoria isn't considered a mental illness anymore, is there genuine evidence that it's not a mental illness anymore or are they just moving the goal posts now as to what constitutes mental illness? Does this demonstrate that psychology is just complete bullshit anyway?

It's still in the DSM.

Mental illness in general is being “accepted” rather than treated, as victimhood is now fashionable.

before anyone comments, it's more than just a corruption of philosophy yes. Linguistics can be included too as another example, but psychology is still largely just ontology. And bad ontology at that.

So I wrote one post then it became two and finally became three so I just gave up trying to cut it and realized that taking a picture is way easier.
Hopefully this wall of text answers your question sufficiently.

Great post. Makes me think of ants trying to expand their colony and improve productivity. I don't see it as a bad thing though. The whole point of society is to be productive and create things and if psychiatry can help with that then what's the issue?

Huh? Pretty sure it is and the most accepted treatment/cure is to transition. You should head back to your containment board

psychology doesn't help anyone any more than religion does. they're both diseases of the human spirit and we need to get rid of them in order to progress. actually, i don't think it would be that bad if we could just start holding it to the same standard that we hold aerospace engineers. going to a therapist is like going to a licensed fortune teller.

yeah, he's crazy for thinking it's weird that it's the only mental illness involving a dysphoria regarding the body that's treated by literally mutilating the body. imagine if the treatment for being dysphoric about having legs was to cut them off

Psychology is closer to engineering than science. It's a method of control (I don't mean this negatively) and a way of keeping society sanitary (notice the same root as sane). I don't know how to say this stuff without coming off as a conspiracy nut, but it's not some secret.

Psychology is not medicine. What constitutes illness or not isn't always clear. It's very cultural. For example, 20 years ago, if someone were taking pictures of themselves dozens of times every day and sending those pictures out to everyone they knew, thinking anyone gave a shit, they would be called narcissists. Today that's perfectly normal. Someone who is schizotypal in the west might be considered normal in more reserved cultures (not sure if that's true, just guessing). What constitutes sane vs insane is a matter of culture.

To you or me, gender dysphoria may be gross and weird, and we may not think it should be considered normal, but clearly the cultural liberalism of the modern west knows no bounds, and has consumed another odd group into its ever-changing definition of normalcy. Maybe in 20 years we'll think of them as normal the way we think of social media as normal. Which mental illnesses need fixing will always be a question of what fits in and what doesn't.

Medical problems, like cancer, have always been and will always be seen as problems that need fixing. Twenty years ago, a narcissist would need 'fixing'. Today they are normal. Same goes for transgender people, apparently.
