I love that like most of psychology is just utter garbage and yet oh so clever libs eat it up like a dog eating it's own shit.
Over the past decade or so I've basically learned that everything I was taught in college about psychology and economics were lies, and about half of what they taught in history.
Yeah, atleast with history it's usually vaguely true if misleading. Psychology is literally just made up by a guy.
like, actually psychology is mostly fine -- pop psychology is completely fucked, almost entirely made up, and reliant on garbage research conducted under horrific circumstances, though.
Pop psychology is always like "These experiments would never pass ethics boards today, but even if they were unethical, they still showed us more into the human mind than any other research today", but then you look at the research and it just says "We found that people feel bad when they're in a stressful situation. We made someone decapitate a live animal to find that out."
What's fun about psychology is if you know the pop science stuff and also that it's bs and why it gets very easy to manipulate certain kinds of people
