If it is a truth which might offend the public taste, like for instance..."the maintenance of clients in drug-crippled states by indefinitely continuing them on brain-numbing drugs." then this truth should be silenced and censured. It is a great offence to the TRUTH when free debate is stifled. It seems that permissible debate is debate that does not question the PSYCHIATRIC STATUS QUO,that body of 'truth' which is accepted as truth by the majority of the powerful. How I ask, with tears in my eyes, will PSYCHIATRY ever progress without free and open debate which is both uncensored and uncensured. A quotation from a recognized expert such as Dr Nathaniel Lehrman MD can only be construed as uncivil by someone who objects to Dr Lehrman's views, which within the context of accepted Psychiatric doctrine, are somewhat controversial but never unvaluable.

You wrote,[...accepted..by the {majority of the powerful}...]
Could you identify those that constitute the {majority of the >powerful<}?
