    Yes… but also at the same time, the vast majority of people with bipolar or other mental health issues are not raging anti-semites.

      They also don’t have people influencing them. A whole lot of people had a whole lot of chances to stop that shit.

      Dude is seriously mentally ill.

        That is true. But there is evidence he has been leaning towards the extreme right and anti-semitism for quite some time. Much before his most current mental health crisis. The fact he has now been surrounding himself with fascists and Christian nationalists is more a show of how far he has gone, not that those people influenced him to get there per se.

        Well, I’ve met quite a few mentally unwell people. Unfortunately have met a number of anti-semites. Very little overlap in my experience.

        But that’s not going to be good enough for you.
