Could split personalities obtain "rights" in the future? - The slippery slope of psychotic influence on society.

To what extent can something be said to be "protected" by the law? What do we mean when we say "life"? Consider a scenario in which you are depressed and have a split personality who is content and happy with life. Can you be charged with attempted manslaughter if you try to commit suicide but fail? What if you dabble in tulpamancy and get possessed by a gay demonic personality? Would killing yourself be a hate crime? Is attempting to destroy a personality considered murder?

With the start of the gender movement, I see another slippery slope, one which knows no bounds. What are the limits people will go to in order to justify and coddle those with mental illness?

What will the impact be on the sane people who cannot relate to such phenomena? Will it become more trendy to pretend you have more personalities? Will people use this as an excuse to attach themselves more to other cultures or relate more to other races?

Even so, can a personality even be a different race? Can you wed a different personality? Would that be egotistical or arrogant, or would this be viewed as some kind of self-pride? Would you be championed as the pioneer of "personality" rights? Can a being exist solely through thoughts? Can a being made up entirely of thoughts and housed in your brain be a "person"?

Without a body, what makes you more real than a second personality? How would you explain it if your original personality was erased and replaced by this new one? Would this be classified as murder? What is the proof that I'm not the split personality and the other one is just the repressed actual personality? What IS a personality?

Some people think AI or robots, which are nothing more than binary codes made up of ones and zeros, should have rights. Our thoughts are created from a kind of "code," and the brain is comparable to a powerful computer. If so, wouldn't split personalities be considered an example of "artificial intelligence"? Would it simply be "intelligence" or would it still be artificial? Does having two personalities make you smarter? Can a split personality have a higher IQ than the original?

What is a person?

Are we really that replaceable? Are we merely brain-enslaved thoughts that misinterpret the inputs from our brains for sentience?

Is the brain even ours? Do we own it? Or does it own us?

What about an afterlife? If one truly exists, would it be proof that consciousness is separate from the brain? Are we just artificial intelligence?

Does my brain want me dead? Am I limiting it with my incompetence? Are my negative thoughts being fed to me by my brain?

Do I want to die, or does my brain wish for my death?

Is what you see real? What if you are just seeing what your brain wants you to see? What if an AI also lives the same life, unaware that it is just code? Is an AI just a person without personality?

So what does this make me? What does it make you? I believe that I am entitled to human rights, but would a split personality not feel the same way?

Can thoughts give birth to life?

Could the realization of such "psycho-sentience" become the advent for the theorized existence of so-called "thought-crimes"?

What exactly will the influence of mental illnesses treated as reality be like?

Sounds like those tumblr systems.

No, because there aren't actually any split personalities. There is a person, with a mental health problem. No different from asking if the voices that insane people hear deserve rights?

I've heard the only plausible way a person could have DID is if they were subject to severe trauma in early childhood. And even that is sketchy. Wasn't Sybil Dorsett's case proven to be false? Or at least wasn't what the case appeared to be on some level?

Mental illnesses shouldn't be encouraged to get worse. All those DID kiddies on social media are LARPing psychosis.

Weren’t split personality disorders fake? Like past-lives and suppressed memories of child abuse? All of them were bandwagon fads like UFO abductions and the satanic panic. A mixture of “pay attention to meeeee”, “am i famous now?” and “fuck you dad for not buying me that pony”?
 
I was speaking to a friends father once, and he told me about how when he was young you could pay the guards at the mental institution a nickle, and they'd let you in to poke retards with a stick for as long as you wanted.

I sort of think we should bring that back.

There was an interesting study of psychiatry the practise that they did in the 90's. They had a bunch of participants entered into various mental health facilities under various diagnosis. None of the participants were mentally ill, but by the end of their stay, they had not only been told they were 100% mentally ill, but they were diagnosed with even more conditions and had been prescribed various meds.

I mention it because I think it shows off two very key problems with modern mental health care.
1) If you are in a mental health facility, the doctors there will assume your condition is as real as you say it is, and as real as they see it matches the DSM. So if you tell one of them, that you have a split personality, and LARP that you do, they will take it at face value because the study of the psyche is not a verifiable science.
2) People can have mental illness induced into them, with symptoms that are controlled by external factors. If you are already mentally ill, with something that can be chemically regulated like a schizoid disorder, then you are more likely yo develop symptoms that others are telling you, you should have. Split personality is something that fascinates us as a society; and as such it's prominent in popular culture. Which the mentally ill will be consuming.
2.5) Psychiatry is basically modern day alchemy. There may be something of use within it, but it's by and large a crock of shit right now.

Only the right to a quick and merciful death.
 
I am proud to be standing shoulder to shoulder with the foremost psychology experts who saw an attention whore on Tumblr once and can make accurate assessments not only of all people with DID, but also debunk decades of theory and practice on the disorder.

Just by reading this, my IQ grew 20 points and my dick just gained an extra inch.
 
99% of "split personalities" are just playacting. The remaining 1% are demonic possession. Neither deserve rights.
 
I guess I should clarify that I don't necessarily believe in split personalities, but am more curious about the connotations it would have if they were deemed as factual. My interest lies in such things as "tulpamancy", where you are somewhat giving yourself bootleg schizophrenia and forcing your brain into believing this imaginary friend is "real". If such things can appear so life-like and you don't trust that other people are real, and you don't trust that what they see is reality, how can you differentiate lives?

I guess I think about these things moreso because of my issues, so I try and think about how these people justify their hallucinations. The difference is that I can still tell reality and psychosis apart. But having experienced such things and having dealt with those issues, I can empathize more with the thoughts of reality crumbling around you.

I'm not far gone enough to say that I'm right and everyone else is wrong, just that I'm forced to see things through a different perspective.

Just chalk it up to a schizo moment, IG.

But, getting back to the topic, you can say that transgenderism is a hoax and that there are no other genders, but that doesn't stop people from acting as if they are real. So the question is, what would be the changes to society if DiD or other split personality types were brought more to public attention and given the retard pass?

Also, since we know so little about the human brain, the possibility of such things having a minor touch of truth is not so farfetched. That someone could split their "personality" in half.

Gonna change the thread title a bit.
