Facts about involuntary psychiatric hold:

The United Nations recognises it as a form of torture.

It increases suicide risk by 191 times.

It increases the risk of dying from heart disease and stroke by 3.5 times (no shit on that one, forcing extremely high doses of heavy drugs on someone without even titrating it does that)

45% of patients in psych wards have experienced sexual violence during an admission.

You are a shitty person if you try to get someone involuntarily committed.

January 20, 2026 - Israel has demolished buildings inside the headquarters of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in occupied Jerusalem, and raised the Israeli flag over the premises. This is the latest Israeli attack on the UN and on the rights of Palestinian refugees. It's time to kick Israel out of the UN! [link]

[ID: image from Al Jazeera's interview on 16 Sep 2025 with Navi Pillay, Chairwoman of the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory.

She is quoted saying: "This commission has prepared a number of reports. The latest report, which has now been made public, determines that genocide is occurring and is being done by the State of Israel. That's our conclusion. Genocide has been committed and is continuing to be committed."]
