Silencing Psychology

The tendency for the field of psychology to remain silent about the internal practices that silence diverse viewpoints, and frames of reference through which phenomena may be understood. Many of these tendencies come from practices that claim to be "Critical," and without contest.

The professor was practicing silencing psychology as he professed hard and fast viewpoints that increased discomfort among his students, leading to their total shut down in the class discussion.

status psychology

When a person is too cheap to actually pay a psychologist for help and would rather put all their issues in their facebook status and hope that their cry for attention will solicit the advice of their friends who are no better equipped to help them than a three day old bowl of pudding.

This is a status on Facebook:

Mary Smith is ALL men suck. Why can't one man keep his word. Oh well, I guess I will be single forever.

This is a response from one of her friends:

Enough with the status psychology session, Mary. Stop whining on facebook and deal with it you whiny bitch!

political-suicide psychology

An act common to politicians with sociopathic, narcissistic and self-deceptive personality features fueled by a profoundly self-aggrandizing perspective that distorts even the prospect of failure into a necessary superlative; resulting in highly self-destructive behavior as required to validate equally delusional thinking.

Press: 'Did you ever think that the only people saving you from impeachment would be your own staff--for FAILING to follow your orders?'
POTUS: 'Listen. Nobody knows more about failing than I do, believe me. I'm the best at failing, just ask anyone; I'm the greatest at failing that's ever lived and I'm going to prove it...'

History: Does he ever actually listen to the crazy shit that comes out of his hole? Isn't it the objective to make decisions and policy using unbiased, verifiable evidence and in accordance with established governmental procedures within the Constitutional framework? Only the influence of political-suicide psychology could be responsible for such a distorted perspective of reality...we need to do better.

Psychology

The practice of taking things we already know about people, and weighing it down with jargon until the only other people who understand it are psychologists.

"Psychology dictates that all juvenile humans grow to imitate the assertive role models around them, sparking a developmental response" (Kids grow up to be like their folks)

Psychological Utopia

The euphoric state of happiness in the mind and the ever lasting feeling of goodness. The feeling that nothing can ever go wrong. Being happy all the time.

She always smiles. I have never seen her sad! Maybe because she lives in a Psychological Utopia!
