Political Abduction - Britain's shocking secret
An appraisal of how Britain deals with dissent
Busting the big monopolies of Facebook and Twitter is the apparent motive for the establishment of platforms like Telegram, Gab, GETTR, VK and more, but I see a more sinister undercurrent.
Facebook, Discord and Twitter banned me repeatedly (along with many others) because my posts and comments challenge the prescribed narrative. So then up pops alternative social media platforms where the banned are permitted to congregate but kept isolated, unable to communicate with and influence the vast majority of the population.
It reminds me of the way that the UK government system (and probably those of all 5-Eyes countries) diagnose as insane and segregate their most vocal opposition into asylums where their voices are stifled or even chemically coshed into oblivion.
I wrote about it 4 years ago and reproduce that work (updated) here for your consideration.

In Britain, protesters or political dissidents have always been suppressed
by the established stiff upper lip working hard to control our image in the world.
Hence, we don't read about anything that might damage Britain’s reputation in the controlled and corrupted media.
That would blow the lid off the safe red, white and blue, very British bubble that cushions us from reality.
Many MANY thousands of protesters, from anti Vietnam war rallies of the 1960s, to the Poll Tax riots, to Greenham Common, the Animal Liberation Front, Stop the City and many more campaigns, witnessed their members suddenly picked up by police, spirited away and sectioned under the loosely defined Mental Health Act.
Subsequently they were incarcerated in secure locations and chemically coshed.
Many of these brave and dedicated people never recovered their former exuberance.
Many died or became lifelong drug addicts, hooked on the state approved pharmaceuticals.
I am always baffled by the fact that so many British people go about their lives completely oblivious of this sinister underbelly in Britain.
I find myself asking:
"Do you remember the Bean Field?" and I invariably launch into a brief reminder of how, in 1985, Thatcher's policies dealt with the free festivals at Stonehenge when they had become too big for establishment comfort.
The convoy of live-in vehicles travelling to the festival was suddenly corralled into a field by overwhelming numbers of police.
It was smashed up, the dogs were shot, the kids were taken into care and the adults were arrested.
Quietly, behind closed doors, many of them were declared mentally ill and locked up in institutions without trial.
Many committed suicide.
Their lives destroyed.
These are the harsh realities of how we are treated if we defy the British government
and it is time that everyone knew this.
"Since the beginning of time, mental illness has been a powerful political weapon against those seeking, or operating, social change. A lot of the definitions of 'madness' are bogus inventions by which those in authority are able to dismiss those who dare to question their reality. Terms like schizophrenia, neurotic and paranoid, mean little more than what any particular, or not so particular, individual chooses them to mean. There are no physical proofs for any of these 'conditions'; the definitions vary from psychiatrist to psychiatrist and depending on which is considered undesirable or subversive, are totally different from one country to another. Because of these different standards, the chances of being diagnosed schizophrenic in America are far higher than they are in Britain and this led one psychiatrist to suggest that the best cure for many American mental patients would be to catch a flight to Britain.
The label of 'mental illness' is a method of dealing with individuals, from unwanted relatives to social critics, who, through not accepting the conditions that are imposed upon them by outsiders, are seen as 'nuisances' and 'trouble makers'.”
"Once labelled 'mad', a patient may be subjected to a whole range of hideous tortures politely referred to by The Notional Health Service as 'cures'. They are bound up in belts and harnesses, strait jackets, so that their bodies becomes bruised and their spirits beaten. They are locked up in silent padded cells so that the sound of their own heartbeat and the smell of their own shit breaks them down into passive animals. They are forced to take drugs that make them into robot-like zombies. One common side effect of long term treatment with these drugs is severe swelling of the tongue; the only effective cure is surgical - the tongue is cut out - what better way to silence the prophet? They are given electric shocks in the head that cause disorientation and loss of memory. ECT, electro- compulsive therapy, is an idea adopted from the slaughter- house where, before having their throats cut open, pigs are stunned with an identical form of treatment- ECT is a primitive form of punishment that owes more to the traditions of the witch hunters than it does to the tradition of science. The ultimate 'cure', tour de force of the psychiatric profession, is lobotomy. Victims of this obscene practical joke have knives stuck into their heads that are randomly waggled about so that part of the brain is reduced to mince-meat." ~ quoted from “The Last Of The Hippies - An Hysterical Romance”
by Penny Rimbaud of CRASS, a British anarchist punk band. It was written to celebrate and remember Wally Hope, the founder of the Stonehenge Festival. http://www.spunk.org/texts/places/britain/sp001297.txt
RIP Wally, never forgotten.
"The use of hospitals instead of jails also prevents the victims from receiving legal aid before the courts in some countries, makes indefinite incarceration possible, and discredits the individuals and their ideas. In that manner, whenever open trials are undesirable, they are avoided."

Now let's look at a more recent event:
On the 15th of October 2018 a young activist, Sadie Love was briefly featured in the media because she was one of many who were protesting against fracking in Lancashire.
She gave journalists her reasons for defending against the Frackers, Cuadrilla UK.
She was clear and articulate.
She said she was locked into a tube of concrete, inside tyres because she wanted local parents to feel that their kids are safe in Lancashire.
Here is a live-streamed video, shot by a fellow campaigner, of Sadie talking to the journalists that day.
The police cut Sadie and her companion out from their device and arrested them later that same day.
What transpired at the police station is unclear but Sadie says that she was put into a cell and fell asleep exhausted.
She was woken around midnight and taken to a local hospital, closely followed by her friends who had been waiting for her to be released. Other arrestees had been released much earlier and she was the last to be dealt with.
Sadie discovered that she was being sectioned under the Mental Health Act and she was suddenly bundled out of a back door to a waiting ambulance.
Her friends could hear her screaming in defiance and tried to intervene, but they were restrained by a huge number of police officers and eventually the ambulance drove Sadie away, leaving her friends distraught and powerless.
As you can see from the video I have shared above, Sadie is not mentally ill.
This was a POLITICAL ABDUCTION.
Sadie's friends were not about to give up and leave her at the mercy of the state.
They found out where she had been accommodated and shared the information among the many concerned campaigners. Efforts to contact Sadie's family were successful and the following day Sadie was seen by a few friends and a solicitor.
Worryingly, Sadie had been administered drugs against her will.
It was clear, from all their reports that Sadie was calm and had not suffered a sudden episode of psychosis.
There was no sign of mental illness and everyone was baffled.
Why had the police done this? Why had they singled out Sadie?
Meanwhile, online some of the activists were filling Twitter and Facebook with posts expressing their rage.
One of mine was shared over 6,000 times on Facebook, mirrored by an online media outfit and finally inspired a support group to be set up.
The solicitor who attended Sadie demanded to see the paperwork and found it to be incomplete.
An urgent review of the case was requested and early the following morning Sadie passed an assessment without difficulty. She was released from the institution immediately and collected by her very relieved and close friends.
Sadie returned to the fold and did not intend to let this nasty experience just sail by without challenging the motives for her humiliation and brief sectioning under the Mental Health Act.
The support from all around the world, generated by a few Facebook posts and tweets, was impressive.
However, we noticed a large number of health professionals disputing that this could have happened.
They explained the protocol and seemed baffled that a bed could have been found for Sadie when their experience tells them that severe and genuine cases are seldom admitted to hospital unless the patient is in danger of self-harming or is a danger to others. They noted that Sadie displayed no sign of mental illness. What shocked them the most was that the police misused their powers of arrest in this way.
What shocked us, Sadie's friends, was the fact that health professionals seem oblivious of this method being used against protesters and dissidents.
There is clearly a disconnect going on here.
Sadie was politically abducted and she was not the first by any means.
Thousands of people have fallen foul of the misuse of law and medicine.
Sadie is still being pursued and harassed by the police and health authorities NOW, four years later!
She lives literally “on the run” helped by the network of British activists.
It is a fact that the British establishment has ALWAYS used mental health legislation to damage and silence women. Not so much men, they get prison usually. With an abduction under the Mental Health Act on our record, our kids can be taken into care, our family life destroyed, our hearts broken - too distraught to continue living.

Reporting on these matters stresses me a lot because there are many other terrible stories I could tell, but they are mostly undocumented and anecdotal. They are episodes from my past that still elicit a tear from my eyes if I remember them.
In witnessing the current decimation and segregation of social media I see echoes of the divide and conquer paradigm. I see an attempt to create an underclass, labeled as lunatic because their reasoning and warnings are no longer heard. I see a totalitarian overbearing monster terrorising people into blind obedience and denied access to any alternative points of view. I see mind control writ large on the future of humanity.
In memory of all those who are crushed under the wheels of power I say:
There are some more modern ways to control dissent:

In 1977 we moved to Belmont, Ma, across the road from McLean Hospital. Turns out McLean was infamous for its use of Frontal Lobotomy.
A generation of us who were 1-A for the draft to Vietnam were self-medicating. One can still see a few who have somehow survived.
One of the erstwhile local gems of bathroom graffiti: “I would rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.”
