Just because someone is mentally ill does not mean that they cannot be an evil person. Psychopaths are mentally ill, and I can assure you that when they go around murdering people, I do not feel any sympathy for them.

Research shows that 20% of CEOs are straight-out psychopaths, and the rest of them are somewhere on the spectrum. It is actually impossible to get that rich without trampling on people.

Mental illness is generally caused by a combination of stress and a predisposition to mental illness. The other commonality in all mental illness is self-absorption.

I have never heard that mental ill people are the cause of all the wrong in the world.

When women become mentally ill, they withdraw and become depressed. When men become depressed, they become angry and violent. Jeff Bezos is mentally ill. So is Elon Musk (Bipolar). Isn't it time we recognized this and stopped rewarding them with admiration (which they crave to a degree that they would destroy the world rather than stop seeking admiration).
