While I am not going to write about Joker again, since I’m still spotting people on Twitter accepting at face value Todd Phillips’ problematic premise regarding mental illness and violence, I am going to pass along this National Health Law Program piece about how “the vast majority of individuals with mental health diagnoses are not violent, and mental health diagnoses are not useful predictors of future violence”. Anything and everything which “exploits deeply-rooted but erroneous stereotypes and fears of people with mental health conditions” deserves only public ridicule.
