psychomedia is a phenomenon peculiar to members of the media who are driven by the need to exploit and sensationalize. By employing psycho genre stereotypes the media cleverly equates depraved and demented movie characters as accurate depictions of "the mentally-ill." These movies are the equivalent of nazi propaganda films, so whenever an article about mental health is reported in the news the media will usually generate an angle linking the story to violence. This, in turn, justifies denying all people labeled "mentally-ill" their most basic constitutional rights. In 1956 a proposal was introduced in Congress to purchase one million acres of land in the Alaskan wilderness to warehouse "the mentally-ill." Repackaged versions of this proposal are currently swirling around Congress. In Nazi Germany the first people to lose their rights before being warehoused and gassed were "the mentally-ill." Is history about to repeat itself? Or will Americans be able to stop this disturbing media trend before Siberia USA becomes a terrifying reality?
