Hello! Welcome to @madsys-official , this blog is inspired by @sysfreak-official my system and I wanted to create a tag and label SPECIFICALLY for systems who are very mad pride. Now I know sysfreak likely already includes this, but theres literally no harm in creating an offshoot term for systems who wanna get super specific.
Madsys and sysfreak are NOT to be compared to one another, my term is not better than sysfreak and sysfreak is not better than mine. This tag was fr self indulgent largely because mad pride is a cultural-political identity and movement and I know a lot of systems (including myself) like to include their political stances in their identities.
I highly encourage that if you already use sysfreak as a tag that you CONTINUE to use said tag, just add mine on if you'd like to. (Like how you can tag sysfreak, dissociapunk and dissociafreak).
Below the cut you can find the official stances of madsys as well as flags i made ✂️
What is madsys all about?
Madsys is anti psychiatry HOWEVER, from researching it seems that we dont hold the same ideas that a lot of other anti psych people hold. So just...keep that in mind...
Here is what we specifically believe:
- we believe that mentally ill patients should ALWAYS be awarded bodily autonomy and should be allowed to choose any and every treatment they go through, if they go through treatment at all.
- we believe that it is important to acknowledge that the psych industry needs HEAVY reform in how it treats specific conditions, and especially how it treats more severe presentations of such. But also acknowledging that the research into psychiatric conditions has provided a lot of benefit to people in terms of being able to put a label to what they go through.
- we believe there needs to be HEAVY reform to any and all mental health legislation from all governing bodies internationally
- we believe that patients should be allowed to present self diagnoses to their care team and be allowed access to investigative care based on those diagnoses, as in patient says "I believe it have bipolar based on (evidence) I would like to look into that" and their care team will provide that care. We are aware that this does already happen but it doesn't not happen often enough.
- we believe that the mistreatment of mental health patients (including institutional abuse) should be considered as more of a serious crime by the justice system than it currently seems to be.
- we believe any and all individuals with mental disorders dederve the chance of recovery whether that be through 1:1 therapy or finding ways to help yourself instead. Including paraphilic disorders.
Disclaimer!!
Whilst we believe anyone should be able to display their mad pride #madsys is inherently against the endogenic / non traumagenic / natural multiple movement, as well as this we are against transIDs as these groups are inherently ableist and display behaviours designed to take advantage of vulnerable people. That being said we absolutely encourage the reclamation of terms and labels for the communities they should belong to, we welcome recoining blogs.
We also highly encourage education on the harm these groups do and HEAVILY DISCOURAGE harassment. You are not welcome here if you believe it is okay to harass ANYONE, including transIDs & endos & radqueers of any age and regardless of whether they have caused harm or not. Because of this madsys is not aligned with radnormal, cleanqueer, ethiqueer, moralqueer etc etc.
And the final disclaimer, I realise im making this tag when there is a rise of blankqueer labels and an increasing wave of harassment towards those with any paraphilic disorder and so I want to say that madsys is NOT a blankqueer label please DO NOT TREAT IT AS SUCH. madsys works similarly to sysfreak, pluralpunk, cripplepunk and other similar cultural-political identity terms.
Flags & symbols
We have two flags, and two symbols.
Flag & symbol set #1
This is the mad pride flag WITHOUT the Cheshire symbol, I am unsure who made the mad pride flag so I sadly cannot credit them right now but the lotus CDD symbol is a recoloured png of @aka-collective's anti endo CDD symbol
Flag & symbol set #2
This is the mad pride flag WITH the cheshire symbol, again i do not know who made this and it features another recoloured png of @aka-collective's anti endo CDD symbol
Mad Pride is (what i've been calling) a cultural-political movement and discourse that is primarily led by current and former users of mental health services, psychiatric survivors, and neurodivergent individuals.
Mad pride encourages people to reclaim the word "mad" as a positive identity, celebrates mental health diversity, and campaigns against psychiatric coercion, institutionalization, and social stigma.
Why are you against radnormal? Also why do you dislike blankqueers if a lot of them are harmless? (/genq)
Instead of making another long winded post about radnormal ill link you to the one ive already made on another account of mine

Secondly i dislike blankqueer labels because they almost all have really gross underlying flaws that mean I, as a queer and mentally ill person, would never actually feel safe.
Almost all of them have ideals that create explicit loopholes for people to harass others (including saying you can harass adults only, or you can harass anyone who you can "prove" deserves it), I have seen several who are against contradictory labels (like lesboys and turigirls) which will ALWAYS isolate intersex people who use those labels EVEN IF you claim that youre okay with intersex people using those labels because you cannot police that. Almost all blankqueer labels are against all those with paraphilic disorders REGARDLESS of if they are offending, recovering, anti contact, pro contact etc etc. A lot of blankqueer labels want to isolate recovering radqueers for a variety of different reasons.
This last one is personal but I am very uncomfortable with thr amount of labels that are applying morals and ethics and the idea of "cleanliness" to being queer and political. It just makes me feel like theyre putting out this message that you can be queer but youre only going to be "one of the good ones" if you fit into this cute little "moral" and "ethical" niche box.
All that (most of) these labels are doing is proving to radqueers that what the radqueer community says about antis is true. That we hate them all and we think they deserve to be beaten, to be killed, to be tortured etc etc etc. That rhetoric does NOT encourage anyone to stop being part of a community that harms them, it WILL and HAS BEEN PROVEN TO push people farther into those mindsets.
TLDR; a lot of these blankqueer labels are NOT harmless and we need to be more critical over how people treat those they disagree with because threatening to harm people or saying they deserve to be harassed is NEVER OKAY.

How does not supporting harassment mean that you're not alinged with moralqueer which is a label which's only rules are anti harassment and pro re-education...?? (/genq)
Like moralqueer is anti harassment so how does being against harassment cause you to not be alinged with moralqueer? I get the not being a blankqueer label but you specifically said it wasn't alinged with moralqueer because your label is anti harassment? Sorry if this is dumb I'm just genuinely confused if this is hypocritical or just me being stupid
I'm just confused how being anti harassment makes you not alinged with anti harassment?? Infact like all of the blankqueer labels you listed are specifically anti harassment and state that in their stances
Your coining post says you are against "unresearched harassment" indicating that you think its fine to harass someone if you can "prove" they deserve it.
I havent found a single blankqueer label other than maybe hippiequeer that is actually, truly, FULLY against harassment. Hippiequeer is the only one ive seen so far that doesn't have some weird loophole to allow for people to harass others.
TRIGGER WARNING. THE FOLLOWING VIDEO MAY TRIGGER DELUSIONS AROUND BELIEVING YOU ARE NOT REAL OR THAT OTHERS AROUND YOU HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THIS POST ALSO TALKS ABOUT NEAR FATAL MEDICAL NEGLECT AND CULT TORTURE. PROCEED WITH CAUTION.
I fear you are literally just proving to me that pro endos are still a hate group.
I am a physically disabled, medically recognised HCDID system.
I have been through literal torture at the hands of a beloved community church, I almost died at 2 years old because doctors did not believe i had salmonella because the test came back false negative, I am currently being so medically neglected that I am feeling my body literally shut down in real time.
I know what suffering is, I know what being disabled is. And quite frankly you are being a horrible ableist pig to me.
Saying im not real, im an alien. That I dont know what real suffering is. That I dont know what having a real disability is like.
Claiming i am anti plural because I do not support pseudoscience from a group that started as a hate campaign and has showed no change in behaviour is fucking wild. Coming into my comments, my messages, my inbox to berate me and say horrible things to me is continuing to prove my point. Pro endos and endos themselves are not showing an OUNCE of willingness to break away from the fact that the "natural multiple" movement started as an anti cdd, anti science hate group.
Someones mad i called out their little hate campaign for bullying and mocking disabled people!
Commenter sent this and then blocked me (or i have them blocked. Idc), but I have an alt I use to check for comments like this so its not going unnoticed!
