Primarily what I was saying is we should avoid thinking material conditions that create rational bad actors are pathologies or moral failings.

Only if it makes you unable to develop stable relationships. DSM doesn’t pathologize being an asshole. That’s normal human functioning.

When it comes to the DSM-V, that’s how it works. You must have a functional impairment.

A disorder must either somehow negatively impact your activities of daily living like your job or staying out of prison, or causes significant distress. If you’re explicitly making tons of legal money off your delusions, it’s not a disorder.

I hope you have some dried beans and hard maize to fill out your squash harvest.

Depends on how you present the voting options. If it ends up being random selection of human representatives then you’ve just reinvented sortition and that is generally better than most of what we’ve got.

Still the same fucking LDP though.
