Two interesting findings thus far from my analysis of Pew's March 2020 COVID-19 survey. First, white (and especially 'very') liberals are far more likely than all other ideological-racial subgroups to report being diagnosed with a mental health condition.

How much of that is rich people being able to medicalise their arseholeness.

Once again, repeating the pattern of defending society's worst people.

That's not defending them.

It's making excuses for society's worst people, and it's a pattern with this account.
