Of course, if someone like yourself places a premium on a paid-for college degree as a measure of relative intelligence, one such as myself might point out the Henry Ford, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Paul Allen, Mark Zuckerberg and essentially damn near every person responsible for every part of the technology every person on the planet relies on for communication, computation, and transportation...was a college dropout. How many years did you study to learn anal ventriloquism?
How many synonyms for "People who didn't go to med school to diagnose mental disorder" are there?
I have a bachelor's in behavioral science. Would you like me to diagnose you? You have acute retardation with a side of dumbshititis.
Psychiatry is not a paid for college degree. It's med school followed by 4 years of on the job training with intense scrutiny at every level. But hey, as long as you're throwing qualifications out the window, please go hire a college dropout to be your divorce lawyer. Better yet, get open heart surgery from Mark Zuckerberg. I'm sure he knows exactly what to do.
Over here in the real world, I'm going to keep going to doctors for my medical advice. Because it's illegal for people without degrees to practice medicine. It's a little social construct that we all came up with to ensure a quality of care for critical roles in society. Doctors, lawyers, accountants, pilots. All those jobs where it takes actually knowing what the fuck you're doing to get anything accomplished.
You know why your stupid source couldn't get a psychiatrist to diagnose Trump? Because they'd get sued for diagnosing someone they hadn't had personal contact with. Because diagnosing a public image is the WORST fucking idea on earth. Which is exactly why you can't trust any of the people who were quoted. None of them have consequences if they're wrong. But hey, none of them have ever cracked open a DSM 5 either, so it's not like they know what the fuck they're wrong about.
Dumbass.
