Similar to but broader than the "Delusion Card," this is the accusation that someone's entire perception of reality is broken due to a psychotic break, often because they endorse a belief system the accuser finds utterly incomprehensible or dangerous. It's not just that they have one wrong idea, but that their entire cognitive framework is detached from consensus reality. This shuts down conversation by declaring the speaker insane.
Example: Someone arguing that we live in a simulation might be met with, "You've officially pulled the psychosis card. Touch grass. Talk to a real person." It labels a philosophical or speculative stance as evidence of a severe mental health crisis, barring any further discussion.
