They get paid to talk people around in circles. Sometimes by people who really are quite poisonous and want to be told how they aren't so bad by people they pay to tell them that. [00:23] DaemonFC The entire concept of therapy is ridiculous. [00:24] DaemonFC Therapy is basically a luxury item for people who can afford it. [00:25] DaemonFC Nobody who is broke goes to therapy because nobody cares what sort of trauma living in a tent and asking people for change did to them, or what got them there. [00:26] DaemonFC When a person says they go to therapy it only broadens my contempt for them because they're just some rich asshole who almost has to invent drama to talk about for $100 an hour.
