Mental Illness

What "Mental Illness" specifically? What mental illness is it PRECISELY?

Hym "If school shootings are the result of 'mental illness' (Megyn), then which mental illness is it? This time it's an 'emotional disorder', last time they were schizophrenic. What's the diagnosis? That doesn't SOUND like a through-line to me! Does it sound like a through-line to you? The only through-line I see is the constant demonization. It's every single one too! Find a SINGLE ONE who wasn't constantly demonization by one side of the media or the people who BLINDLY ACCEPTED THE MEDIA'S PROPOSITIONS WITHOUT THINKING (JORDAN). No, you know what I think? I think I was RIGHT AGAIN! I think mental illness has become this sort of conflationary euphemism for 'Anyone who would kill kids'. You can dismiss and ignore anyone that way. And you know, most people would go straight to the bombings of other countries that results in the death of kids. Jist because it's remote doesn't mean it's 'less real' somehow. Are the people flying the drones mentally ill or is it the people who order the strike? Is the DRONE mentally ill? Do any of those people still get to have guns? I though you were a lawyer?"

Sandcastle Mentality

Acceptance of inevitable destruction.

When you know that something is inevitably going to ruin what you have done, but you do it anyway for whatever reason you may have.

Quoted from 2b2t wiki:
The Builder's Dilemma, The Sandcastle Mentality is a philosophical concept that is one of the pillars of the "veteran mentality". It means that a player accepts the destructive nature of 2b2t, and learns to live with it. Its name comes from building sandcastles on beaches: no one builds a sand castle believing or expecting that it will last forever.

"Mark built a sandcastle even though he knew a wave will just wash it off at some point. One can say he has the Sandcastle Mentality, maybe even a Builder's Dilemma in mind."
