    Soelberg killed his mother and then himself after suffering from untreated mental illness…

    It goes on about how ChatGPT made it worse, but psychosis is psychosis

        Yes, Helter skelter is a good example. Thanks. Eventually some other trigger would have come around. Another album? A movie? The pot was going to boil over at some point. And while that song does get a lot of credit for Charles Manson, it would be ridiculous to enforce a rule saying it cannot be played anywhere because turns people crazy… Based on a very small group of affected people – who are already crazy

          yup

          To reduce stuff like this we could fund a lot of social workers and public-benefit psychiatry

          Doing so in the USA for a solid decade would probably cost less than one free plane

            Unfortunately, politicians would never allow mental healthcare in the United States. Most of them would never get elected if everyone was not suffering some kind of psychosis
