I see camps being less likely and more the old “lunatic asylum” system being resurrected. Whoever remembers how to do lobotomies will be making a lot of money in the near future.
Let’s be real, whoever can claim to know how to do a lobotomy — it’s the type of surgery you can literally learn to perform from a five-minute YouTube video, it takes ten minutes to do, and if it goes wrong-er than usual then that’s “all the better” for certain parties.
Incidentally, I’m just now learning about Howard Dully, one of the youngest survivors of a lobotomy and co-author of the memoir My Lobotomy. He apparently died in February of this year at the age of 76. He had two YouTube channels, apparently the one channel was made to try to raise support for making a feature film based on his life, which evidently never came to fruition; the other one has much more varied content, including interestingly enough a lot of pirate uploads of shows from his childhood. It is in any case very striking to hear a lobotomy survivor in more or less modern times talking about his life in a very lucid manner — because he got the procedure so young and was otherwise very fortunate for a lobotomy survivor, brain plasticity allowed him to with time regain a lot of function.
