BIPOLARIST • MEDIA WATCHDOG

We're not crazy

We track how America talks about Bipolar Disorder—then we fix it. Reports, investigations, and pressure campaigns that move culture and money. We also surface how algorithmically reinforced bias amplifies stigma in feeds, hiring systems, and moderation pipelines.

About

We’re here to make stigma expensive.

Bipolarist is a media watchdog and culture lab led by Bipolar and allied talent. We build pressure for accuracy and dignity, and we publish the receipts. When we say “own the narrative,” we mean: set the terms, correct the record, and move budgets.
