This is a multi level world. All insights add a piece to the puzzle. I'm just trying to be practical in this situation by completely ignoring the spiritual side of things.

I just think they don't actually need to subvert any rights. They can just ride piggy back on the ignorance of mental health professionals. Psychology as a science is 150 years old. In my opinion we know diddly squat about how the mind works. And my time among them did not leave me with the impression of rocket scientists or saints.
Psychoactive medication changes balances in the mind. This can help to re-balance people who severely lose their balance. However, most cases of mental health problems are not big issues. If you chemically alter the balance using such a crude tool as medication how is the mind ever going to re-balance itself?
People who are having problems and roll into the psycho pharmacy system are more often than not not helped by this system. I've seen sad things happen. Shy people that ended up dancing on tables. People who needed help were locked up in solitary confinement and separated from those loved ones who had kept them standing up to that point. If I were ever put in this situation I'd force myself to outwardly behave like the norm.
Like I said I'm a trained psychologist so I'm qualified to diagnose my own mental health. Let's have some fun...
* Because I believe and experienced telepathy this (to them) means I am at a heightened risk for schizophrenia.
* My beliefs in telekinesis would push me over that edge.
* Because I have channeled past life entities and guides both spontaneously and non spontaneously I am technically some form of multiple personality disorder.
* I used to have a shamanic bend where I was connected closely with a totem animal and hung out with people who considered themselves animals. (I got better, honestly)
* I have various neurotic traits
* if you consider that I believe myself to be partially alien in origins you can imagine what a nut job I must be...
In my own words as uncle Ali, I'm an average human being with an unusual interest in the spiritual and a willingness to experiment with new ideas and unusual approaches.
Ironically the one time I did need some help I was rejected by the psychologists, I was functioning too well. I eventually had to go to a psychic. Which in the end was the best thing that could happen to me at the time.
I'd recommend if you ever get involved with the mental health professionals... Whatever you do.... Act normal... Worry about whatever war that is currently raging, complain about taxes, be a non violent conformist. Don't mention deep life questions.
Unless you have a clear reason to be disturbed, like the death of a spouse, or another traumatic experience. In which case they can be good listeners and they have experience in actually solving those problems.
My trick was to be able to play the "normal" people game. This isn't a matter of selling out. It's a matter of creating the space I need, to be me in. And there's nothing wrong with being slightly nuts in private or among friends. As long as we harm no others and cause no problems to ourselves or others. If we enjoy the conversations with the pink elephant in our basement then that's cool. To me personally it's a sign of mental strength to be comfortable around the "impossible". If the rest of the world can't handle that, then I don't confront them with it.
On the other hand... I actually had a fellow student who loved to experiment on people in the wild. He'd join the people in a bus stop. And then start talking to a light post. Just to see what would happen. A practical upshot is apparently that you always get extra personal space on the bus. But this is very telling to how people respond if you allow yourself to experiment with the crazy ideas.
Good Greetings Ali Quadir and All:
I do have experience with being a mental health worker (I was so silly I thought they actually were healing people... how dumb could I be?) and what I saw I could not participate in and refused to do so. The system is simply unethical and it is a hot bed of service to self types that the only difference from the people they are "serving" (now that is a real laugh) is that they fake it to make it and are more crazy than the people who are "having the mental breaks" and "responding to internal stimuli"
I consider the field of psychiatry to be a soulless field of arrogance and ego and darkness bent only on making money and controlling others and of course providing a ready to consume energy system for the Dark Ones who are dis incarnate. I have no respect for such a system that supported Torture in the Bush years and continues to use medications for issues that can be better resolved through behavioral therapy, inter-connectedness and LOVE.
I agree it is tantamount to blend in with the general population and appear to be "normal" that is one must seem to appear to be as out of balance as they are and as blind and ignorant as they are and as 3D as they are until you can get out of Dodge and find a safe place in which to be yourself.
I like this site for speaking of the Dimensions that reside within. As it is a state of mind... contracted or expanded. http://www.emergingearthangels.com/index.html
