severe disconnect from reality

Something about that doesn’t sit right with me. Seeing how far the definition of an “illegal alien” is being stretched for deportation, I have a feeling people with autism, ADHD, depression, etc, would all be added to the list of people who are “disconnected from reality”

Not to mention some people are dumb enough to argue being trans is a mental illness aswell. (dysphoria is, being trans is not)

They did specifically say senile in conviction with a severe disconnect from reality.

I feel the need to offer a correction. Dysphoria is a diagnosis, and is not considered to be a mental illness.

inform people about what’s going on around them

I have lived all my life around retirees, people 50+ years old. I can tell you from that experience, you can inform them all you want, they’re not likely to change their opinions about anything.
