You and actually the guy from the AMA have tribalized this obvious reality. He may be right to say it's not all mental illness. Trump may be wrong in what he said but the AMA guy didn't say mental illness does not cause these mass shootings, Mostly because that is ridiculous claim that no one can make.

Is trolling a form of mental illness? Researchers find that trolls are highly likely to have the dark triad of personality traits: narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy. But are personality disorders really a form of mental illness? <br /><br />What does disorder mean? It refers to a pattern of behavior that impairs functioning in daily life and causes distress to the person or to people around him or her. It refers to an inability to conform one's behavior to the demands of society. In that sense, trolls are disordered, but are they "mentally ill"?<br /><br />Psychologists have debated the relevance of a medical model to human behavior. The term illness implies some organic cause. In the case of schizophrenia, OCD, depression, anxiety, a case can be made for a physiological cause. These used to be the Axis I disorders. Personality disorders may also be physiological in the sense that personality appears to be inborn, the result of genetics and physiology too, especially because personality is so difficult to modify across the lifespan. But behavior itself can be modified if an individual wishes to.<br /><br />That means that trolls troll because they choose to do it and that they could stop or redirect their behavior if they wanted. Even if the underlying traits that lead them to troll were not modified, they could control their behavior with effort. <br /><br />So, I have to ask, please stop impeding discussion here with this garbagey troll behavior. These are serious topics that deserve attention and your efforts to troll do nothing to help reduce gun violence in our society. But maybe you trolls are already reducing gun violence by typing instead of shooting? In that case, maybe we should encourage you to be as obnoxious as possible here, so you won't go out and shoot somebody. In that case, keep repeating that Evans didn't say what he obviously said.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-5498228363604491022019-08-07T10:38:42.716-04:002019-08-07T10:38:42.716-04:00He does not say mental illness does not cause thes...He does not say mental illness does not cause these mass shootings though does he?<br /><br />Repeating your denial over and over doesn't make this inconvenient fact go away.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-43312422459740759282019-08-07T10:37:05.335-04:002019-08-07T10:37:05.335-04:00Mao, I don't see where you have any particular...Mao, I don't see where you have any particular knowledge on what "actual non-zombie people say about 'mental illness'" First of all, how do you distinguish between "zombie" and "non-zombie" people? Presumably you don't divide the categories up between those that agree with you and those who don't - but maybe you do. I would suggest that assuming there is a valid category of "non-zombie" people, they might have varying views on what they would characterize as "mental illness." But you are a propagandist - it isn't that important that what you say is objectively true - it's to advance the cause, that's what counts.
