Is extreme liberalism associated with mental health issues?

completedit

What's the evidence? Just seems anyone espousing fanatical liberal views seems to have some sort of mental health issue...tbh probably the same when it comes to extreme right wingers but is it any surprise that mental health issues are so high at a time in the west where the left has never been more powerful. Especially Anglo liberalism.

An idology that is so callous as to allow eviction bans run out,as is happening in liberial run america,is anything other left leaning imo

Anything extreme is obviously maladaptive.

Extreme conservatism like in Muslim countries for example are obviously deranged and insane compared to moderate liberal society.

You might need to look at the conservative packed supreme court for that one

Why immediately look to the US? We allow evictions aswell (as we should).

Unless you consider that people holding opinions that you regard as extreme is itself evidence of a mental health issue, I don't see any basis at all for your assertion that "anyone espousing fanatical liberal views seems to have some sort of mental health issue".

The claim reveals rather more about you than it does about the people it refers to, to be honest.

They run the government over there and done zero,or as close to it as possible, to prevent this from happening

Whats the point in being in government,if they dont want to help the people?

Edit: 7.5 million stand to lose unemployment assistance in 33 days and no attempt/start has been made in extending this......they.have all these help and what not brought in,to bring in some basic safetynet and all liberials want is to remove it via default....while blaming everyone else

I think it deosnt work full stop,mate

They sell emselves as left wing/socialists while letting millions fall into risk of eviction,and doing nothing to stop it

They have 33 days to stop unemployment assistance for 7.5 million falling off a cliff,will they manage it,yes or no,or who is to blame this time??

They literally have a clear run as control power at all stages there now,

but they simply dont give a fcuk about the poor,but can no longer hide behind conservatives as an excuse....they could stopped this eviction ban from expiring,and can stop these welfare payments falling off a cliff,but choose not to,while basking in accusations of being socialists?

Looks to me,yous been sold a pup mate

You only have to look at Twitter. A high hundreds/ low thousands amount of Irish active users, tens of thousands of posts per year, nearly all unemployed or semi employed, the levels of hatred they have for regular folk who enjoy non lockdowny things like going for a pint are off the wall. Gender pronouns, supporting batshyt causes like BLM and ending direct provision, there isn't one of these people that is a fully functioning, regularly bathed member of wider society. Not one. Normal people just don't care about this type of thing.

you are back rambling about something you don't understand.

How have I been sold anything?

No, it does not, nonetheless in the past if you failed it wasn't your own personal fault it was the will of god etc if your dad was a baker you became a baker you didn't have to worry about choice because there was no choice.

Liberal value supports the theory that you are the author of your life unrestrained by convention so now if you fail it is your own personal falt and that does lead to more mental distress for individuals.

The kind of "liberal " values being discussed here blames anyone but the individual, well unless he's a " straight white male "

That guy is the one responsible for all evil and failure, everyone else is a victim
