@MikeCarlton01 I don’t know that it’s offended. Phobias aren’t generally about being offended. It’s important to get your terminology correct “Christ Is Lord”. If I was going to insult someone as intelligent as Mike Carlton I’d probably get my terminology correct. Cheers. 😃
@defendthefaith6 @MikeCarlton01 Jesus to evangelicals... "Get my damn name out of your filthy mouths!"
@defendthefaith6 @MikeCarlton01 Christophobic. Lord almighty! Add that to the Christofascist bingo card folks! #auspol
@defendthefaith6 @MikeCarlton01 You miss the point entirely. Morrison went out of his way to ensure his church attendance was very **public** - not the "private" venture he has just lied about.
Scott Morrison “keeping his faith private…”
Here's a link to the full book, a newer edition than what I own. The information on defense mechanisms begins on textbook page 100. Please let me know if there's a more accessible alt-text solution that you would prefer so I can do better next time. isotis.files.wordpress.com/2016/07/mcwill…
#7 – Intellectualization – using extensive cognitive arguments to artificially circumvent Covid anxiety Examples: Unending threads to justify indoor dining Data-rich public health dashboards that use low-quality metrics and/or don’t change public health recommendations as risk…
#6 – Rationalization – Artificially reducing Covid anxiety through a weak justification. Examples: “I didn’t mask but I used nasal spray” “I don’t need to mask because I was recently vaccinated” “It finally got me.” “You’re going to get Covid again and again and again over…
#5 – Reaction formation – expressing artificial positive feelings when actually experiencing anxiety “It’s good I got my infection out of the way before the holidays” “I had Covid but it was mild” Anything quoted in Dr. Jonathan Howard’s book, “We Want Them Infected: How the…
#4 – Compartmentalization – Holding two conflicting ideas or behaviors, such as caution and incaution, rather than dealing with the anxiety evoked by considering the incautious behaviors more deeply (hypocrisy) Hospitals and clinicians claim to value health/safety but then don’t…
#3 – Displacement – When someone takes their pandemic anxiety and redirects their discomfort toward someone or something else. Examples: Angry, seemingly inexplicable outbursts by co-workers, strangers, or family White affluent people caring less about the pandemic after…
#2 – Projection – When someone takes what they are feeling and attempts to put it on someone else to artificially reduce their own anxiety. Examples: “Stop living in fear.” (the attacker is living in fear) “You can take your mask off.” (they are insecure about being unmasked…
#1 – Denial – Pretending a problem does not exist to provide artificial relief from anxiety. Examples: “During COVID” or “During the pandemic” (past tense) “The pandemic is over” “Covid is mild” “It’s gotten milder” “Covid is now like a cold or the flu” “Masks don’t work…
As a clinical health psychologist, I notice that many people are using psychological defense mechanisms to downplay the risk of COVID. These are my Top 7 examples: 🧵
I am proud to announce today that the Albanese Labor Government is delivering $161.3 million to establish the National Firearms Register.
@WorldHealthSmt @DrBronKing A short-term practical implication of these will be the requirement of many indoor settings to monitor and display the indoor quality parameters in an easily digestible way. That means, you will know when you enter a room if it’s safe or not. This is happening in Belgium already…
@WorldHealthSmt @DrBronKing However, pretty much all of the ‘personal protection’ approach described above is a stop-gap solution, until clean indoor air standards are developed and implemented. We are going through the equivalent of a ‘boiling our own water’ period for indoor air. In high income countries,…
Dear @Mark_Butler_MP I am so FREAKING angry I may have to have a time out before I say something I regret 🤬 How is it FREAKING possible that Novavax XBB is OUT OF DATE before Australia can get its FREAKING act together to give us access to it??? 🤦♀️ #LethallyIncompetent
