Q: End Psychology and Continue with Cognitive Science, or Continue the Reformation of Psychology as Intended by Cognitive Scientists?
In my understanding, the discipline of psychology, if it exist at all, consists of the discovery and documentation of cognitive abilities and biases that affect our behavior.
Yes this is all biological, or more reductively, just physics at play.
The cognitive scientists revolted against psychology precisely because it had no scientific basis. At present psychology is being reverse colonized by cognitive science. Though as you’re demonstrating, psychology being (a) the means of feminine manipulation and undermining (b) the contemporary equivalent of Astrology. So for the public and to end the public use of this pseudoscience, it might be better to just burn the discipline at the pseudoscientific stake, and just fully adopt the cognitive science framing.
I’m not sure we shouldn’t reform the discipline so that it is free of freudian feminine bias and simply the science of cognitive biases and resulting behavior just as we treat biology as processes with deterministic ranges of output and resulting consequences to homeostasis and behavior.
You might be right that we should abandon the term, and adopt a new one that is devoid of this feminine mental disease in the field. But I feel the more responsible and durable solution is to purge and reform the field so that it is free of the psuedoscience and fraud and manipulation that is endemic to the feminine mind, and the minds of those who produced that pseudoscience.
I might be wrong.
Happy to hear opinions.
