EXPLODING ANOTHER GEFU MYTH Creative people are not more likely to be diagnosed with mental illness, and mentally ill people are not more likely to be creative than normal people. Western (GEFU) culture needs to believe that better people are flawed so that, somehow, we are equal and so need more of the State. Who are the GEFU? Greenies, Existentialists, Fascists, and the Unscientific irrational mystics. So much of social and atmospheric science has been infested with GEFU philosophy that science now serves the GEFU narrative in psychology, economics, climatology, politics, philosophy. The need to believe in a connection between creativity and madness appears to be so strong that affirmations are welcomed and quoted rather uncritically. huffingtonpost/dr-r-keith-sawyer/creativity-and-mental-ill_b_2059806.html
