The Trap - What Happened To Our Dreams Of Freedom? #2 - The Lonely Robot [BBC, 2007]
Part 2: âThe Lonely Robotâ The second episode reiterated many of the ideas of the first, but developed the theme that drugs such as Prozac and lists of psychological symptoms which might indicate anxiety or depression were being used to normalise behaviour and make humans behave more predictably, like machines. This was not presented as a conspiracy theory, but as a logical (although unpredicted) outcome of market-driven self-diagnosis by checklist based on symptoms, but not actual causes, discussed in the previous programme. People with standard mood fluctuations diagnosed themselves as abnormal. They then presented themselves at psychiatristâs offices, fulfilled the diagnostic criteria without offering personal histories, and were medicated. The alleged result was that vast numbers of Western people have had their behaviour and mentation modified by SSRI drugs without any strict medical necessity. The Ax Fightâa famous anthropological study of the Yanomamo people of Venezuela by Tim Asch and Napoleon Chagnonâwas re-examined and its strictly genetic-determinist interpretation called into question. Other researchers were called upon to verify Chagnonâs conclusions and arrived at totally opposed opinions. The suggestion was raised that the presence of a film crew and the handing out of machetes to some, but not all, tribesmen might have caused them to âperformâ as they did. While being questioned by Curtis, Chagnon was so annoyed by this suggestion that he terminated the interview and walked out of shot, protesting under his breath.
