Yeah this is largely unavailable to yanks I think. But like, while 10 free sessions a year isn’t enough for a therapeutic relationship, it is enough to try a couple different therapists and find one that works for next year.
Unless you earn too much to qualify in which case I hope youre earning enough over the threshold to still be able to make it happen

What is the current science on Eliza-like therapy chat bots?

Do they still have some sort of “placebo” therapeutic effect or has that been disproven?

No idea, but I am of the firm opinion that a huge portion of therapy is just the honest, private, and judgement free communication with another person. I don’t think that replicate with a ai. You may be able to trick the logic part of your brain into thinking you are talking with someone, bit there is so much non verbal communication that is just absent.

I was liberal until 2017 and I didn’t realize that year after year, decade after decade my worldview had been warped by the propaganda of endless episodes of tv cop series and tv legal series that I consumed without thinking. I had no idea…

  • For the poor - bail is a jail sentence.

  • The right to a speedy trial is a lie.

  • Even when I was a boy and a teen - jury trials were already uncommon. NYT: “In 1980, 81% of federal convictions were the product of guilty pleas. Now [in 2016] the percentage is about 95%.”

  • Plea bargaining in the US is a disgrace. There was a transfer of power from prosecutors to judges.

  • Etc.

You can see this by watching even five minutes of a cop show on TV. They do “the law is going to prevent us from carrying out justice” so frequently in cop shows.

Bourgeoisie society is more concerned with delegitimizing you than legitimizing you (assuming you are a prole)

Not the same person, but when I was a kid I asked my dad why some train cars had smaller boxes than other train cars. He said they melted and shrunk in the sun (lol), I thought that was true for like 20 years and then had a sudden epiphany that that made no sense.

I’m having a hard time remembering mine, but I know I have them. Lots of"knowledge" that just goes unaddressed for ages.

I think my dad told me prosecuted meant executed and that stuck with me for a while
