This episode breaks down the alarming resurgence of asylum-like policies targeting disabled people, tracing the echoes of past abuses into today’s political landscape. As politicians propose work farms for the mentally ill and police detain people for appearing unstable, it’s clear that the rhetoric has shifted, but the oppressive mindset remains. We urgently examine how forced care is being weaponized and who truly benefits from these policies.
This conversation is too important to miss—please listen, share widely, and help us expand the dialogue around the continued oppression of mad and disabled communities.
