The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 142
A Woke concept that doesn’t get nearly the attention it demands is the concept of various “Determinants of Health (DoH).” They are institutions, systems, and societal structures that have health-relevant outcomes, and the Woke Marxists have a few objectives in pushing this perspective, which amounts to “society is preventing you from having optimal health and needs to be controlled by Woke Marxists.” There are social determinants of health (SDoH), commercial determinants of health (CDoH), economic determinants of health (EDoH), political determinants of health (PDoH), and more (and more). Each is an opportunity to do surveillance, problematize, and seize control over entire systems to be reorganized to achieve Woke Marxist goals. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reveals in two papers that professional associations like the American Medical Association (and others) have designated voting as a “social determinant of health” with “political determinant of health” consequences and have used this bogus designation to justify doing voter registration and targeted voting drive campaigns from the platform of psychiatric healthcare services. Join him to hear about this extremely unethical practice.

Thanks for revealing this “social determinants of health”propaganda.
As is generally true the actual reality is the opposite of what this simplistic ideological infantilization is advocating. Yet again the aim of exploiting dependency for political advantage is sufficient motivation to ignore the true impacts on health.
Dr Jordan Peterson is very good at explaining the health benefits of personal responsibility and endeavor toward a personally meaningful goal. Which is the true remedy for feelings of victimhood and powerlessness.
It is never appropriate to treat even children, let alone adults, like infants. Especially for purposes of vote”buying”.
