FDR excluded professions from his New Deal that were predominately Black. It took a private philanthropist, Julius Rosenwald, to bring Black artists into the WPA programs. FDR praise at this moment in time is tone deaf and reveals a lack of interest in real social transformation.https://twitter.com/marwilliamson/status/1234248794360803329 …

Or
@marwilliamson do you remember all of the bullshit you have said about antidepressants? Or all of the time you have suggested that clinical depression isn't real? Guess what? Three suscide attempts later, I have finally found the medication that allows me to live my life.
No I did not. I’m glad you found the help you need. Painkillers should exist too, but clearly predatory pharmaceutical practices led to their overmanufacture and overprescription. Insisting on govt oversight & healthy skepticism re Big Pharma motives is nothing to apologize for.

Let's start with your tweets about Robin Williams when he committed suscide. I had not yet gone on meds, and those sorts of comments were fucking devistating at the time.

Or how about your words in your book where you describe anxiety as results of a society “that repudiates love” and urges us to heal by surrendering their suffering to God and rising “above the thought system that creates it.” Fuck you. My anxiety is caused by OCD.
