Mental theory

An easier way to say Theory of mind.
In psychology, mental theory refers to the capacity to understand other people by ascribing mental states to them. This includes the knowledge that others' mental states may be different from one's own states and include beliefs, desires, intentions, emotions, and thoughts. Possessing a functional theory of mind is considered crucial for success in everyday human social interactions. People use such a theory when analyzing, judging, and inferring others' behaviors. The discovery and development of mental theory primarily came from studies done with animals and infants. Factors including drug and alcohol consumption, language development, cognitive delays, age, and culture can affect a person's capacity to display theory of mind.

Mental Health

CODY! THAT’S A THING I SAID! That mental health is not a “me” problem but an “everyone but me problem!” You think a thing I think! Hurray! Captain Always-Right!
Hym “Didn’t I say almost exactly that about mental health? Isn’t that a little disconcerting that both leftists and righties are parroting my talking point while (simultaneously) refusing to acknowledge how right and profoundly brilliant I am? You both just tow the ole’ partisan lines and nothing ever happens because I’m a slave and have to be a slave until I either die or hijack an Apache helicopter and go on a GTA-style murderous rampage and/or summon a Godzilla to do my bidding and raze society to the ground? Man, I am always right. That is crazy. I should be getting paid for this. Your you should be going to Newt Gingrich and working for him for free because his political platform is just the things that a random guy on UD says.”
