SIGN this petition to Free Fiona Smith, #Right2Refuse protester & platypus advocate
The Mental Health Tribunal, yesterday rubber stamped psychiatrists dictatorship of Fiona Smith.
Despite Fiona Smith giving an eloquent and well-presented argument, and putting forth the obvious unlawful detaining of her and injecting of her, the Mental Health Tribunal chose to continue to disregard section 4.2 of the Victorian Mental Health Act 2014, and rubber stamped an order to persecute Fiona Smith for another 12 weeks.
That's 6 forced depot injections, it could kill her, if the maltreating team don't taper the dose, or stop forcing it on her.
The opening sentence from the psychiatrist launched into calling Fiona Smith out for 'antipsychiatry' politics. We had to interject that this was invalid under 4.2 of the Mental Health Act, where politics, protests, opinions and previous diagnosis cannot be said to be reason to place a Treatment Order on a person.
The maltreating team mumbled their psychobabble, and it didn't matter that no one heard them, the Tribunal Panel just went along with what the doc ordered.
To do that to Fiona Smith, who is so well-versed in law, so eloquent, despite the torturously high dose of drugs they have forcibly injected into her, is disgusting. To name Fiona Smith's political views as 'thought disordered' is just ridiculously evil, but also in clear violation of the Mental Health Act 2014.
Fiona Smith will be challenging the tribunal Admin now at VCAT.
We cannot have Fiona Smith destroyed by these monsters. She is one of the most courageous people in the world, and a peaceful resistance that the world needs.
Keep sharing this petition. World-wide support is needed.

SIGN Vic Gov e-petition for the #Right2Refuse https://www.parliament.vic.gov.au/council/petitions/electronic-petitions/view-e-petitions/details/12/159
Grievance: The Petition of certain citizens of the State of Victoria draws to the attention of the Legislative Council the much needed human rights currently being denied to Victorians, that is, the right to refuse psychiatrists’ products, procedures, programs and beds. To force Victorians to submit to what psychiatrist’s dictate, to their environmentally unfriendly, unethical, and unhealthy products, is undemocratic and violates the United Nations ‘Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities’, as well as sections 8.2 and 8.3 of the Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research. Victorians must have the right to choose, refuse and conscientiously object to pharmaceutical products, medical procedures or programs for personal, political or environmental reasons and have their right to refuse upheld. Victorians should not be discriminated against on the basis of a psychiatrist’s diagnosis of a person having a psychiatric disability, nor subjected forcibly to human research on this basis.
Action: The petitioners therefore request that the Legislative Council call on the Government to repeal legislation that forces psychiatrists’ products, procedures, programs and beds upon Victorians.
I thought Tiggy Branchflower's crack about "antipsychiatry" was ignorant. I am far more than that> I have demonstrated capacity as a health care worker, medical anthropologist, activist and whistleblower who was bale to provide alternatives to their drugs. My Sectioning was an attack on the right to health I was offering and being offered. I thought the Tribunal were swayed by bureaucratic paperwork and bureaucratic jargon like "paranoid schizophrenic" which is attempt to trash someone, strip them of their rights, and grind them into the ground. It is a diagnosis specifically to protect perpetrators like Graeme Wood, David Castle, Victoria Rother, Susan Ong etc. It is a political diagnosis no different to Soviet east Germany as the Victorian Government uses mental health policy to enrage in social engineering and social cleansing. As mental health workers can ransack the community to advance political power and wealth for themselves. Against gentrification . against social inclusion.
ReplyDeleteI think it's far more sinister than ignorance, because this attack they do on anyone who criticises psychiatry is systematic. They did the same with me, and so many other people that speak out against psychiatrists' violations. Even if it was ignorance, that's no excuse. Read Criticising psychiatry is still not ‘anti-psychiatry’
DeleteNiall McLaren. The shut-down of even dinky little criticisms of the violations and perversions and exploitation racket that is forced/ coerced psychiatry is practised within their own rancid organisation.
Jail the judges in the tribunal.
ReplyDeleteThinking Class Action, for all the people who recently have been violated by psychiatrists who have ignored Section 4.2 of the Mental Health Act, and persecuted people on the basis of their criticism of psychiatrists and their conscientious objection to psychiatric drugs.
