Get the delusional mug.by Indiana jonesj June 25, 2021
Get the Team Delusive mug.Distinguishing a clinically pathological "fixed false belief" from a deeply held cultural, religious, or ideological conviction. The standard definition—a belief firmly held despite incontrovertible evidence to the contrary—could technically apply to a devout religious person (belief in an afterlife), a political ideologue, or even a scientist clinging to a paradigm before a revolution (like pre-Copernican astronomers). The line between delusion and non-delusion is often one of social consensus, not a purely objective psychiatric criterion. This makes "delusion" a slippery, culturally-loaded diagnosis.
Example: A man believes government agents are replacing his thoughts with beams from a satellite. This is diagnosed as paranoid delusion. A man believes an omnipotent, invisible being is listening to his thoughts and guiding his life through signs. This is often called faith. The hard problem: The cognitive mechanisms—strong belief resistant to counter-evidence, interpretation of events to fit the belief—may be similar. The differentiation rests on the content's alignment with a society's dominant reality, revealing delusion as partly a social status, not just a brain state. Hard Problem of Delusion.

Hym "No we do not ✌️✊️✌️✊️create✌️✊️✌️✊️ reality you delusional fuck. We affect reality and YOU make up stories that aren't real to distort reality but that isn't what you are insinuating when you say we create reality. What you insinuating is that we somehow generate the broader non-localized reality through some nonsense. And that's fucking stupid."

Get the No we do not ✌️✊️✌️✊️create✌️✊️✌️✊️ reality you delusional fuck mug.Accusing someone of being so detached from reality that their factual claims or beliefs constitute a clinical delusion—a fixed, false belief resistant to reason. This is deployed when someone holds a view perceived as so obviously false or fringe that engaging with evidence seems pointless; instead, you attack their very grip on reality. It's an escalation beyond calling someone "wrong," claiming they are living in a fantasy world.
Example: In a flat-Earth debate, a scientist presents satellite imagery and curvature calculations. A flat-Earther might respond, "You're brainwashed by NASA!" To which the scientist, in frustration, might snap, "I'm not arguing anymore, I'm just worried about your crippling case of the delusion card." It's a terminal insult for a debate, declaring the other person fundamentally unreachable.
