I actually prefer this honesty from them. We all know they already thought this and worse. Let them speak their minds and show us how repugnant they are. They're nazis, let it show.

Anything to avoid reality

Agreed. I recently decided to give therapy another go. I've only seen this person twice now but I'm rather optimistic about him (going in not expecting much) because he brought up of his own volition how important socio-economic issues are and how he wished more therapists put a focus on that. He's also expressed his own concerns about the current political environment, confidentiality, etc.

Point being, he was quick to not only agree with me but also give examples of outside economic and social factors designed to beat you down. That gives me confidence he is actually interested, not just going through the motions of helping one cope.
