Treating Depression With Electrodes Inside the Brain
cowtamer writes "CNN has a writeup on a method of treating depression with implanted electrodes. If this works, we may be seeing a lot more of this type of technology in the future. '[The patients] were lightly sedated when the holes were drilled and the electrodes implanted, but they were awake to describe what they experienced. Several patients reported profound changes just minutes after the stimulator was turned on. One said the room suddenly seemed brighter and colors were more intense. Another described heightened feelings of connectedness and a disappearance of the void.' While I haven't looked into any of the academic literature on this, it seems that yet another Larry Niven Prediction has come true!"
Some people are racist a-holes. FACT!
The truth isn't racist. Wanting blacks to drop the thug gangsta bullshit and become a positive influence on society isn't racist. Wanting our inner cities to be pleasant places to live without gang violence isn't racist. Wanting black males to stop committing such a high percentage of murders isn't racist. Wanting black men to step up to the plate and parent their black children because that's best for them isn't racist. Wanting blacks to stop hating their achievers and start admiring them as good examples isn't racist. Realizing that most real racism will go away if blacks stop topping the charts for crime, welfare, and bastard children isn't racist.
The most racist thing I can think of is the way Liberals humor them like dumb children and pretend like all of these things are okay, and the way they use the welfare system to get them dependent on government so they always vote Democrat for fear of losing benefits they should have never needed in the first place.
On the other hand, you qualify as a scoiopath.
Stop living in denial and get some help.
