i have had a number of friends and acquaintances over the years with various kinds of psychosis... quite remarkable, actually, my most recent associate who funded me to build https://github.com/indra-labs/indra recently sent me some mysterious messages talking about "they" attacking him with "directed energy weapons" and now he was back home and safe from them...

back in 2016 i had a friend who introduced me to Go and Cosmos and we were working on a Steemit fork and one day weird messages and poof he disappears and then next thing i hear he's made the news having stolen a vehicle and disrupting a political rally, ended up in prison, his girlfriend (later wife) messaged me to tell me what was happening and he was moved back home and went on lithium and other things and is much better now... and in my teens i met more than a few, this one girl when i was 17, and then a couple years later i encountered one in the psytrance scene in byron bay

it really is exactly the same kind of psychological problem and anyone who encourages the validation of their delusional model of the world should be considered a sociopath because that's precisely what sociopaths whole MO is - encouraging people with latent psychotic tendencies to go off the deep end, and that gives you nazi germany, communism, jim jones cult, seventh day adventists, scientology, democrat party, all kinds of shit... it's all the same, and trained psychologists like that famous one i forget his name, brave of him to speak it out because just 20 years ago everything he says was considered to be pretty much the working theory of human psychological malfunctions, and now, literally the crazy people have taken over the institution, and of course they are psychopaths, their whole fun game is making people do insane things
