are there any books/essays/blogs on the decline of psychology? its a field that once might have had potential but is now rampant with extreme incompetence, harm, scams, and political ideology. especially as CBT has been taking over which appears to be almost a pyramid scheme to quickly train as many incompetent losers as possible to do the bare minimum while sending patients to a pilldispenser once in a while, all getting rich doing nothing.

>>24762539it's just the decline of the academy in general the 19th century it was already dying it died in the 20th In the 1800s people complained about way higher admissions and declining standards, and continued to complain about it as it only got worse and worse. If you admit an avg of 110 iq people instead of 130 iq people you just can't have the same subjects and depth.(Also culturally, we have way higher admission of indians and chinese people who basically aren't capable of profound thought, the indians in particular sot hey need to adjust the subjects to cater to them for money)Also the research/pharmaceutical scam system
