Kanye West is an emotionally disturbed individual. What does friendship even mean for a seriously mentally ill person?

Anyhoo, looking at your comment history, I noticed you are frequently all-in on defending Mr. Musk, regardless of what he might've done. Given the entrenchment, progress in this conversation seems unlikely, so I'm going to close this thread by wishing you all the best alephnan. Take care.

>What does friendship even mean for a seriously mentally ill person?

That's a really fucked up take. You can be mentally ill and be capable of recognizing love.

In my experience, it varies. The common theme I've seen is that people with serious paranoia issues tend to turn on their friends and those who love them the most.

I'm not trying to say they aren't capable, only asking the question of how large the differential might be.

Paranoia is categorically the mental illness that prevents someone from recognizing a friend (and maybe catatonia/coma). But when you say "someone with a serious mental illness" you make a sweeping statement that's just...fucked up and lacking of human empathy.

Moreover, you don't know Kanye. You're not his friend (I'm assuming?) Your comments on his possible friendships are lacking in authority. Actually everyone's comments (excepting the few that have actually close relations/have been affected directly) on Kanye's, Elon's, the fucking Queen's, personality and character are moot and lacking in weight.

I agree that Musk, as a flawed human being with disproportionately large amounts of control in the form of money, might not make the world a perfect (or even better) place with even more, other forms of control. But whether or not he's personable? Whether or not his intentions are good? I don't know any of that, and I won't pretend to.

@mxkopy All good points, thank you.
