    I created this account in 2009, but I did not begin using it until September, 2019. The main focus of my work has been the critical analysis of genetic theories and research methods in psychiatry, psychology, and in the social and behavioral sciences in general.

    I focus on because it is cited in most behavioral science texts, and in the media, as providing solid evidence that genes play a major role in causing human behavioral differences. This claim has major social and political implications, and must be examined closely.

    The document linked below is 7 years old, but in 2013 the American Psychiatric Association officially admitted that no genetic or biological markers had been discovered for its disorders. Despite subsequent claims, the situation remains the same.

    Really weird thing about this brand new new journal 'Biomarkers in Neuropsychiatry'- THERE ARE NO BIOMARKERS IN PSYCHIATRY! Publishers will do anything to make a buck. Researchers will do anything to get published. Editors will do anything to pad a CV.

    Charles Murray argues in his book that is valid because biases that understate the role of genes, and biases that overstate the role of genes, cancel each other out in favor of genetics. That 2014 argument was refuted in this article:

    Charles Murray cited the 2015 Polderman twin study meta-analysis in support of his claims. However, 2,748 pooled twin studies still prove nothing about genetics if they are all based on the same false assumptions. The key question is interpretation.

    I have been actively using Twitter since 9/2019. Since then, I have asked several twin researchers and their supporters to explain how assumptions, upon which they base genetic claims, are true. The Twittersphere and I are still waiting for these explanations.

    In “Human Diversity,” based much of his argument in favor of genetics on identical (MZ) vs fraternal (DZ) “classical twin method” behavioral comparisons. In other words, his claims are based on one of the major pseudoscientific methods of the past 90 years.

    “The more they try to silence us, the more they try to get rid of us, as long as there is one indigenous person alive on Earth: we will fight. We will always fight and resist for our survival” - Hamangaí Pataxó. Incredibly moving.

    The 7-year persecution of Julian Assange is psychological torture that has inflicted a life-threatening medical emergency, say . If they can do it to him, they can do it to anyone who exposes the truth. Fight for his freedom to defend our own!

    A top former Salvadoran general is the first to publicly admit that the U.S. - trained, funded & supervised Atlacatl battalion bayoneted babies and slaughtered an entire town of 1000, mostly women & elderly & kids. Half of victims of early 80s massacre were kids under 12.

    The question becomes: Why do people making the case for strong genetic influences on behavior continue to rely on twin studies, an obvious form of pseudoscience? The answer is that (other than a few adoption studies) that's pretty much all they've got.

    Many people know Don D. Jackson as an early leading family therapist. Fewer people know that in 1960, he showed clearly that twin studies are unable to separate potential genetic and environmental influences. Yet twin studies somehow are still around.

    Paradoxically, the only useful finding from gene studies in psychiatry is their complete uselessness in explaining/treating . The genetics turned out to be far too complicated & interacting to provide any guidance to clinical practice- now & perhaps forever.

    Today, tweeted that in his upcoming book he cites twin studies in support of his conclusions. Yet critics have shown that behavioral is massively flawed and is based on obviously false assumptions.

    Our government must immediately condemn this outrageous assault on the freedom of the press, and recognize that its attacks on press freedoms at home have consequences for American journalists doing their jobs abroad, like Glenn Greenwald.

    Biologist Steven Rose wrote in 1997 of the leaders' "urgent pressure to find explanations for the scale of social and personal distress in advanced industrial societies…explanations which shift the 'blame' for the problem away from the political realm and onto the individual."
