It's short and intense. It's one of my all time favorite books. It's incredibly vivid and blunt in its brutality. Seen through the eyes of a child and told by the young adult who has to deal with that story. I couldn't stop reading it.

I mean, that's the rub, isn't it?

People with serious psychiatric illness oftentimes have poor insight and poor judgment, which is part of their illness. They don't always appreciate that anything is wrong, or might feel that something is wrong, but can't figure out why and the paranoia makes it hard to trust people / doctor's.

Paranoid delusions and/or delusions of grandeur are much harder to reality test for people who are, legitimately, at the top of the world.

Make sure you have the whole thing though. I was unaware that I only have the first of three volumes, and for some reason it's a hard to find book. Mine ended while they were still on the train

I don't blame you for expecting the worst in society when you are actively contributing to the problem yourself. You're the pinnacle of a pseudointellectual.

Stay lazy and submissive; myself and many others have enough drive to pick up your slack.

Read the Gulag Archipelegio by Solgenistkin. Russian Labour Camps. Still going strong in Siberia even today, eliminating Ukrainian people.

Being bipolar absolutely can turn you into a Nazi. It's stated pretty well here, separated from bipolar disorder:

> To continue perceiving extreme racism as normative and not pathologic is to lend it legitimacy. Clearly, anyone who scapegoats a whole group of people and seeks to eliminate them to resolve his or her internal conflicts meets criteria for a delusional disorder, a major psychiatric illness.

Stories of the Holocaust also make me angry and tearing up because of the brutal injustice that has been put upon those poor people. Cannot stand that this is what humankind is capable of as well, despite all the good.

Idk if that’s a direct quote from her, but if that is what she said that is both heartbreaking yet beautiful

EDIT: something with autocorrect made it confusing. The sentence should make sense now

If you are young and havent had much exposure to the accounts of WW2 or the atrocities committed against the jewish community then a good place to start would be any of Elie Wiesels books. My personal recommendation is to start with Night. Books such as Night, Dawn, and stories from people like Gerda are what drive home the point of what they went through and that these were real people who lost everything and not some grand conspiracy as clowns like Kanye try to spew.

He stops treatment to make music since they inhibit his creativity. Before with Kim he would be on meds and then go off them, make an album and she would get him back on. Now he’s just being crazy 24/7. As Pete Davidson said, “take the meds kanye, I’m on them, they’re great.

>ding about similar circumstances in the book Night by Elie Wiesel. The brutality of the holocaust is something I find truly disturbing and yet I crave the knowledge. These stories are why we study History in our s

You're an idiot if you think Kanye is saying that he loves what the nazis did. He's saying he loves everyone.
