What kinda bullshit is this? "Only people i feel sympathy for can be disabled" is the dumbest take of the week.

People can be disabled and assholes at the same time. There are lots of mentally ill people that i dont feel sympathy for, because they are also horrible people. Hitler most certainly had some level of mental disorder and so does Musk.

You cant easily see from the outside if anyone is distressed or not so your entire line of thinking is flawed.

Musk's mental disorder is autism. And if someone were looking at this here meme and saying "Yeah, that's how all autists act", we'd call that person a bigot. Because they are.

The reason sympathy and mental disorder ought to be correlated, is because the DSM exists to identify patients in need of treatment. The purpose of a diagnosis is to help someone. To give them easier access to medical treatment. Therefore, saying Trump has NPD is helping him. You shouldn't do that, he's a nazi!

If you deny reality in order to further your political strategy, you are on the way to being a fascist yourself.

Reality was invented by fascist old men in Europe. Belief in reality is fundamentally fascist.
