Oppositional Defiance Disorder was when republicans ran campaigns against vaccines simply because Democrats supported making vaccines affordable and available to everyone.

Insane: a subjective observation you make about another, they clearly have a self-consistent reasoning process with a metric that you don’t share. But communication and cooperation is still possible. Aka Neurodivergent
Mad: an objective observation that someone is illogical, goes against established and observable evidence, may harm self or others, aka nut case

They name the conditions by how they affect normal people, not how the conditions affect us.
Admittedly, I literally told off a priest and a cop at completely different times in the same day, when I was 5…

Edit: clarified sentences
bestie, wtf are you talking about?
Neurodivergence as a concept and how academic psychology perceives it. Everything is a disorder if it doesn’t fit the neurotypical mould.
