    All humor and rhetoric aside, when 1/3 of a population thinks or believes a certain way, you can’t really call them mentally ill because they would have to deviate from a norm and they are part of the norm at that point.

    But I don’t know how you could believe this lie without being delusional. Hence my comment. Yes I’ve thought they were all fucking nuts before, but that’s different from actually thinking they are ill.

    I’m not a mental health professional so my opinion counts for shit anyway, but I do try to take these things seriously.

      Look up mass hysteria.

      Humans aren’t rational animals at all. They are scared and easily panicked apes.
