I remember I saw a psychiatrist once (because I'm cray) and I asked him about the people who want to say mental illness is not in fact mental illness and it's all just a construct of our views and blah blah fucking blah you know exactly how it goes.

The example illness was paranoid schizophrenia with auditory hallucinations. Right off the bat he's like "oh...those people". Basically, a person like this simply cannot function effectively in the wild/with a group of humans.

They'll come apart at the seams, think everybody is out to get them, believe total delusions and the suicide rate among them is something like fifty percent because they're just so fucked all the time with what their condition does to them and how miserable it makes them feel.

Now I'm reminded of this video, especially the last section where it has interviews with actual sufferers.

>implying scientists invented the physical laws of the universe

No, they just observed them.

Many of these early observations were even made by different, disconnected peoples with no relation to eachother and they found the same results.

If you want to become one of the most famous humans ever to exist you can disprove the entire notion of it and you cant hide behind "oh they'll just use their own field".

Alchemy was shown false by chemistry as was Phrenology by Psychiatry and Neroscience.
