Yes, but none of that applies to a South African born in South Africa to South African parents.
Sapient liberation now.

As someone who has extensive personal experience with severe mental illness, I appreciate very much your desire to defend us (your instinct would usually be right), but psychopathy is a weird one. If the previous commenter had said “mental illness” instead of psychopathy specifically, I’d be pissed. But there is evidence that psychopaths advance in business management. I realize it’s not exactly JAMA, but here: https://www.forbes.com/sites/stephaniesarkis/2019/10/27/senior-executives-are-more-likely-to-be-psychopaths/?sh=24aa505d47c4
Both 9/11s were pretty freaking real, but you’re right on the US orchestrating the 1973 one.
If they really want less of a rush to NATO, maybe they should stop invading their neighbors?
Finally, someone who understands the assignment.
If you hear of a reasonable source with actual info on North Korean news, leave a link here. Otherwise, your concern is noted. Believe me, in the face of radio silence, most people are imagining much worse things of the regime than a shorts ban.
Auth-left calls it decadence, auth-right calls it degeneracy. Authoritarians hate any deviance from their norms.
Some search engines and social media platforms make at least half-assed efforts to prevent or add warnings to this stuff, because anorexia in particular has a very high mortality rate, and age of onset tends to be young. The people advocating AI models be altered to prevent this say the same about other tech. It’s not techphobia to want to try to reduce the chances of teenagers developing what is often a terminal illness, and AI programmers have the same responsibility on that as everyone else,
Yeah. Not being legally required to abandon principles in favor of short-term profits for shareholders is tight.
“Data” is a mighty broad category to be “driving” anything.
Also, there’s not a large, well-funded far-left movement in the US fighting to radicalize people.
People hate exercise, too. Not doing it will shorten their lives, but they hate it.

It might be easier for people suffering from other mental illnesses if addiction were in a different category, but addiction isn’t something you choose. You may choose to try a substance, but no serious scientist holds addicts morally responsible for their addiction in the way we hold murderers or Nazis responsible for their actions.
An example of how things are already hard enough for us: https://www.propublica.org/article/they-needed-mental-health-treatment-mississippi-threw-them-in-jail
They can open a pdf, or their Legislative Assistants can. That stuff is performative, making sure we don’t expect them to regulate huge corporations because they’re so incompetent. This is the stuff they’re interested in regulating, so they do.
As someone who has spent decades living with severe mental illness, I think your stance will both kill innocent people and ruin the lives of many that survive. It was hard enough dealing with the stigma (even in medical settings) before the culture decided that becoming a mass shooter had to mean you had a mental illness. Now that we’ve decided every bigot with a gun and a vendetta is “mentally ill,” things are even worse. And now you want to make our lives even harder by lumping Nazis in with us? Tribalist hate shouldn’t be in the same category as depression; they are fundamentally different phenomena. I don’t think you have any concept of the harm this would do to people who are already vulnerable. Besides, if you think Nazism is a mental illness, are you arguing that most of Germany simultaneously developed the same murderous mental illness for a decade or so in the 20th century? Really?
I’d argue that fascism shouldn’t be classified as a mental illness, but a social one. Mentally ill people deal with enough stigma for things we don’t control. People choose to be Nazis. They don’t choose to be suicidal. Please don’t make “mental illness” a catchall for “bad”; we have enough problems already without that. Most of your other analysis seems pretty accurate, but empathy needs to be the core of anti-fascism.
The Senate not being population-based is part of the problem too. As are gerrymandering and not having universal adult suffrage or federal holidays for voting days. But a Constitutional Convention would be state-based, too, so we’d end up with something even worse than we have now.
