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 NVM it’s a diagnosis, being trans is not)
The better solution imo is to inform people about what’s going on around them and how to watch out for pipelines.
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.
Neuroplasticity goes to hell after 40, faster when you drink and/or smoke.

They did specifically say senile in conviction with a severe disconnect from reality.
I would say many people with ADHD and milder autism have a more true perception of reality than neurotypicals, but I’m biased.
I feel the need to offer a correction. Dysphoria is a diagnosis, and is not considered to be a mental illness.
Thanks for the correction, I have edited my comment.
