Cheaper to just put them in prison

used to be run by the state with federal government support to do unethical medical testing during the cold war. now that work has been outsourced to tech and pharmaceutical megacorps who test both mental and physical directly on their consumer base, better scale, better analytics, a lot less overhead and concern of public backlash.

some clandestine work still occurs, homeless people being tracked and chipped, but this is likely another state actor like china or russia experimenting on americans and using them for their experimental psych warfare departments.

is this a guide on avoiding onset of schizophrenia?

So your saying cranks like OP used to directly benefit the human race by being used as subjects for useful experiments and now they just shitpost on /sci/? This seems like an inferior system period.

>why insane asylums don't exist anymore?
it‘s called society and 9 to 5 jobs. prisons work best when people don‘t know they are caged

>>11299395
Haven't done any of those for a long time...

>>11299813
Right

>>11299813
oh wait thats right, jail means youre told what to do because youre a fucking ingrown man child criminal where in real life society youre not supposed to be this, quite ironic isnt it, maybe if you actually had the balls to engage in real unethical criminal behavior you would know the difference between the two neophyte, tell your supervisors to hire real criminals who know what theyre talking about and not some soft little faggot who can only pretend to larp as if contemporary western society with all its freedom and capitalism is suffering, kek, youre such a faggot, kys

Are directly at odds with one another. Why is it that some dog breeds show demonstrable, repeatable differences in intelligence and behavior to other breeds? Oh yeah, evolution. Why is the same thing not true with humans, despite the wealth of studies and observable data suggesting that it is? Oh, because we’re a magical species that displays no difference between subgroups. The genes determine our physical characteristics, but evolution magically stops working when it comes to our other characteristics.
The absolute state of this board.

Think about whatever you want - just keep your rigor and stay well-grounded in your own abilities. There is nothing dangerous about working on the Riemann Hypothesis. You just have to recognize that any proof you come up with is probably wrong.

You must be underage to think prisons are cheap

>>11299404
They absolutely do exist. Every single state has their own psychiatric detention center where the criminally insane are kept.

A waste of money, euthanasia programs don’t mesh well with collective socio-emotional signaling, society was never meant to accommodate the volume of maladapted nervous systems its encumbered by. Most of those people just died in their teens before the advent of abundant medical care last century.

Its more profitable, but neither form of storage is efficient.
