Psychiatrists drugging children for “social justice”

Bombshell: Mind-control engineers drugging children for “Social Justice”

by Jon Rappoport

September 2, 2015

(To read about Jon’s mega-collection, The Matrix Revealed, click here.)

It’s the latest thing. Psychiatrists are giving children in poor neighborhoods Adderall, a dangerous stimulant, by making false diagnoses of ADHD, or no diagnoses at all. Their aim? To “promote social justice,” to improve academic performance in school.

The rationale is, the drugged kids will now be able to compete with children from wealthier families who attend better schools.

Leading the way is Dr. Michael Anderson, a pediatrician in the Atlanta area. Incredibly, Anderson told the New York Times (“Attention Disorder or Not, Pills to Help in School”) his diagnoses of ADHD are “made up,” “an excuse” to hand out the drugs.

“We’ve decided as a society that it’s too expensive to modify the kid’s environment. So we have to modify the kid,” Anderson said.

It would be hard to find a clearer mission statement from a psychiatrist: mind control.

A researcher at Washington University in St. Louis, Dr. Ramesh Raghavan, goes even further with this chilling comment: “We are effectively forcing local community psychiatrists to use the only tool at their disposal [to ‘level the playing field’ in low-income neighborhoods], which is psychotropic medicine.”

So pressure is being brought to bear on psychiatrists to launch a heinous behavior modification program, using drugs, against children in inner cities.

It’s important to realize that all psychotropic stimulants, like Adderal and Ritalin, can cause aggressive behavior, violent behavior.

What we’re seeing here is a direct parallel to the old CIA program, exposed by the late journalist, Gary Webb, who detailed the importing of crack cocaine (another kind of stimulant) into South Central Los Angeles, which went a long way toward destroying that community.

It is widely acknowledged, and admitted in the Times article, that the effects of ADHD drugs on children’s still-developing brains are unknown. Therefore, the risks of the drugs are great. At least one leading psychiatrist, Peter Breggin, believes there is significant evidence that these stimulants can cause atrophy of the brain.

Deploying the ADHD drugs creates symptoms which may then be treated with compounds like Risperdal, a powerful anti-psychotic, which can cause motor brain damage.

All this, in service of “social justice” for the poor.

And what about the claim that ADHD drugs can enhance school performance?

The following pronouncement makes a number of things clear: The 1994 Textbook of Psychiatry, published by the American Psychiatric Press, contains this review (Popper and Steingard): “Stimulants [given for ADHD] do not produce lasting improvements in aggressivity, conduct disorder, criminality, education achievement, job functioning, marital relationships, or long-term adjustment.”

So the whole basis for this “social justice” program in low-income communities—that the ADHD drugs will improve school performance of kids and “level the playing field,” so they can compete academically with children from wealthier families—this whole program is based on a lie to begin with.

Meddling with the brains of children via these chemicals constitutes criminal assault, and it’s time it was recognized for what it is.


the matrix revealed


In 1986, The International Journal of the Addictions published a most important literature review by Richard Scarnati. It was called “An Outline of Hazardous Side Effects of Ritalin (Methylphenidate)” [v.21(7), pp. 837-841]. Adderall and other ADHD medications are all in the same basic class; they are stimulants, amphetamine-type substances.

Scarnati listed a large number of adverse affects of Ritalin and cited published journal articles which reported each of these symptoms.

For every one of the following (selected and quoted verbatim) Ritalin effects, there is at least one confirming source in the medical literature:

  • Paranoid delusions
  • Paranoid psychosis
  • Hypomanic and manic symptoms, amphetamine-like psychosis
  • Activation of psychotic symptoms
  • Toxic psychosis
  • Visual hallucinations
  • Auditory hallucinations
  • Can surpass LSD in producing bizarre experiences
  • Effects pathological thought processes
  • Extreme withdrawal
  • Terrified affect
  • Started screaming
  • Aggressiveness
  • Insomnia
  • Since Ritalin is considered an amphetamine-type drug, expect amphetamine-like effects
  • Psychic dependence
  • High-abuse potential DEA Schedule II Drug
  • Decreased REM sleep
  • When used with antidepressants one may see dangerous reactions including hypertension, seizures and hypothermia
  • Convulsions
  • Brain damage may be seen with amphetamine abuse.

In what sense are the ADHD drugs “social justice?” The reality is, they are chemical warfare. Licensed predators are preying on the poor.

    Conventional MD’s are Charming Sociopaths!!!!!!

    • Raymond Phillips says:

      My childrens mother was a victim of the Sociopaths and it eventually fried her brain. After 15 years on Adderall she can barely function and The DCFS made me throw her into the streets. I refused and they took our five children hostage. They made me sign a paper saying what they did was right to get my kids back. Our government is evil and you all know it. “Evil triumphs when good men do Nothing.” This is happening everywhere. Cowards in office and cowards voting for them allowing this is without reason and delegates us to official slaves.

  2. DupedTooLong says:

    These drugs fry kids’ brains. Keep your kids off of them, no matter what- personal-connection based behavioral coaching works FAR better anyway. Do NOT let them drug your kid.

    Intending to raise my offspring as the fifth generation in our family who would be in engineering, I had my son fully functioning as a kindergarten graduate when he was two; he took the SAT when he was 12 and scored well enough to be accepted at most universities. But we ruined all the hard work he and we put in to his development and personal growth when we listened to the “experts” in the system who said he needed to be on Ritalin due to what they termed ADD / ADHD. After a few years on it, this young man who had previously been able to not only take care of himself independently at 5, and a younger brother, too, was turned into a young adult who could barely sleep, or make it to the occasional community college class, or hold down a job in his own. Another side effect was the appetite suppression made him not eat much and he never made it to six feet like the other men in the family. He’s getting dwarfed by younger brothers, and may even get passed up by his baby sister soon. The saddest part is he’s fully aware of his incapacities, versus how it used to be for him. It’s like the short story, “Flowers for Algernon”, but it’s his life. I didn’t start coming to know the truth about these things – the drugs, the vaccines, the food – until it was too late for him. I’ve told him how very sorry I am that out ignorance let this happen. Now we’re all on the right track, and the three younger ones are big, healthy, active, and in their right minds with no threat to their well being.

    But there’s hope for the Ritalin-fried one. He’s rebuilding his brain and body by working at a full-service old-style hardware store in town, and having all the old-timers teach him everything they know, while also doing increasingly advanced skilled manual labor there. It’s a grown up version of how I taught him when he was small and new. It’s slow going, but it’s making a difference; he’s almost at median life skills competency. While I doubt the damage caused by the Ritalin will ever be fully overcome this side of eternity, if the trend continues for a few more years he’ll be in pretty good shape before the brain plasticity “hardens” around age 30.

    • Bod says:

      I know Personally that brain plasticity continues way beyond the age of 30,
      through motorcycles, sports injuries, bike accidents and the odd headbutt.
      from trauma induced stroke causing comatose state, also times where either police or ambulance staff carried out CPR, to times where I was concussed heavily or just to the point of unconsciousness.
      each of these times had different effects on my brain. one with the stroke, heavily affected my olfactory senses, and funnily enough my factory senses, after this accident I would get my night in (each component had a time allocation etc.) I would then go walk about at Rolls Royce, who were both my apprenticeship with aero engines, and who I worked for post apprenticeship.

      as you get older, it takes longer to overcome the trauma, especially if you do not have a support system, that is not biased against you regaining your sanity….

      also, regrets have deeper wells of ‘memories’ to draw on, leading to finding the ones we tried to forget? whoever did us wrong in the past, we have to find someway of acceptance, let it go, and look to enjoying the now, while looking forward to a future.

      we have lost our social skills to the point where we are unable to communicate our pains, joys etc, to third parties, for fear of IM and other intrusive media.
      is big brother watching? yep, he’s listening, storing and algorithming the heck out of all thats typed, said, where it was said and what time etc, all to be mined for information, the new ‘fools gold’

      Love to you all,
      after all, we live on a ball in space,
      if we are not all related somewhere,
      where did the other come from?
      we all breathe oxygen, use haemoglobin
      we have one of a number of different blood types,
      we make less fuss of that life is made possible,
      than we do the fundamentals of colour and religion?
      wish I could say it makes me laugh.

      spreading Peace should be on your to do list, every day.

      Bless you. Look into Nutri02 for your son – an oxygenated water product claimed to be the real thing – truly healing by overcoming ‘delivery’ issues – fulfilling the promise of Nobel-winning research in 1931 that led to using oxygen to heal cancer – repudiated by big pharma – I’m currently researching it online before using it with my husband who is recovering from a stroke in 2012. I found this presentation compelling: http://www.nutrio2.com/what-is-nutrio2/

    My current suggestion and comment, assuming the accuracy of this article: For Dr. Ramesh Raghavan if he is a physician, and the “forced” psychiatrists/physicians he refers to- please review your Oaths and professional standards obligations. Dr. Michael Anderson, you belong behind bars with your licenses revoked. Thanks for your work Jon-

  4. Most of these recent shootings have had the shooters using these types of drugs. Very sinister motives they have for over prescribing these horrible drugs.

  5. “Meddling with the brains of children via these chemicals constitutes criminal assault, and it’s time it was recognized for what it is.” Yes, it’s true. It’s also true that the best treatment for illness is actually not drugs, it is health, but health is slow and unprofitable, especially if you’re a big corporation with a patent to support.
    to your health, tracy

  6. onebornfree says:

    So, government licensed/approved “doctors”, prescribe government licensed/approved dangerous drugs, to the children of slaves who have been sent to government funded/licensed/approved “educational” day prisons for children, in order to promote said government and achieve some supposed political objective.

    Do I have this about right?

    No surprises here, just “business” as usual 🙂

      Druging children is A Scam, parents get these Doctors to put their children thru this, Especially parents that have taken over the care of children who have lost their parents. this is the most horrible of all. these parents get Social Securty checks, plus the drugging of these children they get SSI, $750.00 for each child. and they don’t care at all about those kids. when they become of age they get a court order and a Doctor statement to put them away, they have to work on a farm or other places like that. I thing they have to stay until 21, I don’t know for sure if they can go out on their own eventually or if they are capable anymore of taking care of themselves. These Children Are Brain Washed, To Scared to fight back and they really don’t know anything about fighting back. Those foster parents are scared they would be exposed so they have to have them put away. These are normal healthy children that our courts and Doctor have committed crimes against and get away with it. one of my kids went to school with a boy that lost his parents. the Sister got custody of the children, A Boy and Girl, they were put on medication as young children. nothing wrong with them except they missed their parent, of course they also go thru a grieving period. they got a Doctor to prescribe the drugs for them. the Boy reached 17, he was friends with my daughter thru the years. we were going to have a birthday cake for him and celebrate his 18 birthday. The day before he turned 18 they took him away, later we found out the put in far enough away, in one of those programs and he has to live there.
      He is aware of what they have done to them but he can’t do anything about it. his sister heavily drug and will do the same to her or possibly have her committed by now.
      These children, have been Drugged from early ages, No Toys, No Furniture in the Bedroom other than a Bed. They never celebrated Christmas,Easter, Birthdays. the boy would come home from school,waled with my daughter, he had to make sure he go home before the home. once they go home he had to take the drugs and set in the bedroom and go to sleep until the next morning, go to school. I knows he’s over 21 now and we never heard from him again. once he turned 21. We don’t know what happened to him.
      there are many stories like this. Social workers should be doing their jobs rather than listen to lies and cover ups. the courts are just as bad, these Judges work together with the Socilal Workers and Welfare workers. Many of the Judges will allow A guardian for the children. But those Gaurdians are mostly Lawyers and Profession like that. those jobs are the stepping stones to further their careers. they don’t have the time for these kids nor do they really have any interest in those kids. What the Judge is told he believes, talking to the children almost impossible and it’s always the children are lying. Everybody is lying but those that are trying to help the children. One social worker was raping a young boy for years, before the parents were able to prove it a finally a Judge had no choice but to pat attention to Reality. The Social Worker did get 15 years, not enough for the years she has raped that young child and they years it will take him to over come what she did, Many, Many cases like this.
      Children are abused,not fed properly, and the courts continue to keep those children in the hands of the abusers. The Welfare Services to blame, Legal Aid and Legal Service are the worse, these Agencies have a BOTTOMLESS PIT of Tax Payers money, they have to keep those children in the abusive situations in order to keep the clients. State of Utah I think their are several case of were a Man has killed himself and Children because they could no longer watch and listen to their children being abuse not only by their mother but the Courts and the Legal aid and Legal Services lawyers. These Layers can actually Take a Way all the rights to the other party, they get no court dates, the court hearings go on without their appearances. their told and receive papers thru an Employer ir other means, but never directly to the fathers. The Mormon churches and Police depth are also to blame for letting criminals remain in society and they children have to stay in those abusive homes. A Mormon Church will actually get the criminal and abusive mothers a place to live and pay their rent over and over again just so they can keep their children. The police will protect people that are working for them, let their family member out of jail, release them and won’t go to court in behave of those children, they won’t get involved, When many times those children need the help of the police, their the only one’s that can vouch for them.
      The SSI Program is a Scam in many cases. l
      A woman that has a disability child, some with not very serious conditions and some considered slow.
      This woman can go on having one child after another like this. They are healthy children capable of learning, but drugged and brain washed. locked into Closets, fed nothing but Beans, Rich, Pasta, Foods that will go along ways and cheap. One young man that worked for my son. his mother collects over $3,000.00 for her children, they never have clean clothes to were. On boy that was older when I met one the kids. he got a job At McDonalds, he brought home some hamburgers .39cents at that time. those kids were as happy as they could be, you would think it was Christmas. The other son that got to know and worked with my son. He got 2 of the hambergers, one he ate, the other on he brought to work with him, ate it cold. He showed everyone and bragged about his brother and those hamburgers. My son wild often buy him some clean clothes, and would give him money to buy lunch. he couldn’t report what was going on because they never believe it. he tred sever times. but than the young man wouldn’t show up for work because he was locked into a closet for a week or so. His mother got his checks. my son always told her he could;t give him a raise because he does his work but not as much as the others. wasn’t so. he told her that so he could give money to the boy to spend, we took him to the store and he was like a little kid, wanting to buy little cars and things. we would buy him a few things but most of the time he had to either share it was taken from him. last that I saw him, he was 27years of age. not Dumb finally knew what his mother was doing. he lives with and uncle and pay his way now. and the mother Was Still Getting SSI for him. even thou the young man had to pay his uncle room an board from money he earned.
      I know of other cases, some even worse, Something needs to be done about the Abusive situations American Children are forced to live in. Thanks to our Courts, the Legal Aid and Legal Service Lawyers. and the Phony Court appointed Guardings.
      No child should be allow to be Drugged with out the opinion of at least 3 Doctors, and not Doctors the family members and Friends find. Their has to an agency that can over see this, one that has no Communication with the parents, or Social Workers.

        the Best of luck to anyone that has children going thru this. those Judges can be reported, but they don’t have to turn around their decisions. they can make matters worse for you and your children also. the Low Life Lawyers that get paid by tax payers and use their Criminal behavior for Wealth and Greed.
        Destroying your children are the stepping stones to a Higher up job.

  7. This, is going to be hard for some of you to swallow, but never go into a hospital alone, ask what your being given, some “change” you can believe in has started, they are DEFINATALY chipping, and using a new method of “behavior” modification, using medicine to punish, turn their ass in.

  8. Sherlock says:

    Today, being a child is a drugs deficit disorder. We are all born flawed and the way to improve society is to use chemical straitjackets.

    Methylphenidate is the active ingredient in ADHD drugs such as Ritalin. In the United States. Methylphenidate is classified as a Schedule II controlled substance (cocaine, amphetamine, morphine, etc,)

    Social justice? By giving children in poor neighborhoods drugs with high potential for abuse and dependence? Social justice would be to ship off all these insane psychiatrists to a remote island in Nunavut. They could bring their poisons and Dr. Rusell Barcklay with them.

  9. From Québec says:

    Their criminality has no bounds.

  10. Larry Noel (The Practical Madman) says:

    According to US Code Title 42 Section 1981 titled “Equal Justice Under The Law” it states that you have “right to equal pains, punishments, penalties, taxes, licenses, and exactions of every kind.” There is a maxim in Law that lists are exclusionary, so if it isn’t on the list, you don’t have that right. I hope this answers you question of “In what sense are the ADHD drugs ‘social justice?’ ” It is under the same sick sense of justice that writes laws like this one.

  12. Tom says:

    You talk about the “false diagnosis” of ADHD as if there is such a thing as a “real” diagnosis of ADHD. Some children are nuisances to their parents and teachers. Some are not. None of this has anything to do with medicine or science. What you really mean is: people that bother you are “really” mentally ill. People that bother other people (but don’t bother you) are “falsely” diagnosed. This is all nonsense.

    In the words of the Doctor whose name shall forever go unspoken on this website: “Social judgement is not a criterion of disease.” I don’t care how much somebody disturbs another person. That alone is not evidence of a disease.

        Dr. Thomas Szasz. The people here seem not to like him. They like his work though. They repeat it enough for me to be sure of that. They just seem not to give him credit. Seems like a trend with Szasz. Go to szasz.com and take a look around. Imitation is the highest form of flattery.

    • Sherlock says:

      I don’t see what’s wrong with “false diagnoses of ADHD”. Pychiatric disorders are invented and voted into existence. Jon knows this very well. That’s probably why he added “or no diagnoses at all”.

      “In the words of the Doctor whose name shall forever go unspoken on this website…”

      I don’t know who is it, but It sounds like something Thomas Szasz would have said, no?

      “It’s not science. It’s politics and economics. That’s what psychiatry is: politics and economics. Behavior control, it is not science, it is not medicine”. – Thomas Szasz

      • reba says:

        Psychiatrists should not be able to practice on the same person for more than 2 or three years if appointed by the courts. Psychiatrists should have to take a break, work on and off in that field. work 3 years off 1 year. some times they become as bad as their patients. they also begin to take a Godly like figure in some cases. Many times they to are Scam artists too.

    • blgrasmand11 says:

      Sometimes it’s the parents who are as much to blame as these quacks. A child who is hyper, just by nature, and parents who have no idea how to be a parent, may use these quacks as a remedy for lack of their parenting skills, intentionally or not. I know of such a child, who was put on these drugs when he was 2 years old, and had stayed on them until he was 16. I finally convinced the parents and the child, to quit taking all of these drugs. He is now, at 22, is functioning much better, less anger problems, but has no social skills, and is completely dependent on his mother to make decisions that affect his life. The harm done to this child, I believe is irreversible. Knowing the parents now, who were poor and still are, were convinced by these quacks, that the child needed all of those meds, and since they couldn’t parent properly, have completely ruined the chances of this child of ever being the useful, and I believe outstanding, adult, from ever realizing his potential. It’s very sad to see someone who is really intelligent, but cannot use that intelligence, because of the damage all of those drugs have done to his brain.
