Three is good mental illness and there is bad mental illness. Cool people are mentally ill in their own way. They have a vibe. It is bad to be needy because of mental illness. ADHD, Schizophrenia, bipolar, substance abuse disorder (but be careful) I am all for it if it is used to be cool.
Gangster Bolsheviks are crazy in their own way. They are eccentric and are going with an extreme ideology. I am sure many of them have been committed to psych facilities and drug rehabilitation facilities.
Mental illness can be performance enhancing because it gives you eccentric powers. Think of a distance runner. You would have to be crazy to put in that many miles not knowing if you will get results (results are not guaranteed). Or think of a UFC fighter. You would have to be nuts to do that. Mental illness is also recreational. It is fun. It is exhilarating. To some people it can be depressing but that is only if you look at it the wrong way.
Ludwig Van Beethoven had interpersonal and mental issues. Bobby Fischer clearly had his issues. Geniuses are often crazy in their own way. One cannot deny the accomplishments of these two people. On the other hand, mental illness can be bad if it is not put to productive use. Think of Chester Bennington of Linkin Park, Kurt Cobain of Nirvana or Layne Staley of Alice in Chains.
The Gangster rap industry had a major costal feud in the 1990s that I considers to be mentally ill. Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur got shot over it. Gangsterism in general is mentally ill. It can be good or bad. Gangster Bolsheviks support writing street and prison gangs, but carefully, not making stupid decisions.
Society stigmatizes mental illness. We need to get over the stigma. You are welcomed and recruited as a mentally ill person into Gangster Bolshevism. Society can go to hell, because we are against the masses.
It is mentally ill to get involved with flame wars on the internet, but sometimes you got to shake things up a bit. Flame wars often pit community against community and individual against individual. They can get ugly. They can resulting in doxing and harming family members. There are no real flames on this substack (yet), but the concept is not an unfamiliar one.
I think wage slaves are secretly mentally ill. They have Stockholm Syndrome. This is an example of bad mental illness because it is not desirable to be a wage slave. To go to work just to afford the car you drive to it and a nicer house is not worth it. This talking/writing point would be popular on the “antiwork” sub on Reddit.
When you think about it, you have to be a bit crazy to get through life. Life is constant suffering with little reward. It is a constant give with no take. Religion teaches that there is a reward, but most ultrareligious people are little nutty in a bad way. I am a Deist. Deism is a very sane religion, based on the scientific method.
They say mental illness only exists if your life is negatively impacted. I guess maybe then to say mental illness is positive is a contradiction based on the official definition. Yet, I am sure you know what I mean. You know someone can be nuts in a good way.
Discrimination against the mentally ill goes on in employment, even though it is not supposed to. They are afraid of the special powers of crazy people, but pretend it is about safety. You are not supposed to discriminate against someone for getting “help.” If you are forced inpatient for psych reasons, you do lose some rights, like the right to own a gun.
I could name names and start going into specifics about people who are mentally ill political dissidents. I decided not to do this out of tact. Rest assured, I know a few. A decision was made not to list individuals. Do not doubt that they exist.
Let us get started. Take your shot! Get high on mental illness! Go!
