Thoughts? I do take criticism. Not on the adhd stuff, I have fourteen years of experience on that one. autistic people were kept in fucking asylums until the 80s and people died like a lot, which is why I put 1986 It’s random man, in the greek root not germanic

Old And Broken: Horror films taking place in insane asylums. Usually overplayed and inaccurate depictions given the time frame the stories are based in. Overdone concept its been done to death. Leans heavily on ableist undertones when it literally can not do that.

Newly Awoken: Horror films taking place in abandoned steel mills or meat factories from the 1930s. Sharp and rusty. People died from exhaustion and were dismembered on the regular. Worker ghosts ready to get unhinged from the social injustice at the drop of a hat. Heaps of rat shit and asbestos on all the food. Reminds the audience how America prior unionization was straight up not a good time.

Excerpt: 

While it is indeed a problem that we have inadequate facilities to care for the mentally ill, Trump omits the fact that those “institutions” were closed down in the mid 20th century because they were essentially torture centers. 

Additionally, most mentally ill people are not violent, and most mass shooters are not mentally ill, making Trump’s entire argument a red herring.
