    Mental illness isn’t carte blanche to be hateful without recourse. I live with literally the exact same condition as Kanye, but that condition never absolves me the work of being decent or having to live with the consequences of my poor decisions. My mental illness may at times explain my erratic behavior, but it absolutely never excuses said behavior. Stop using mental illness as an excuse to allow the rich and famous to do whatever they want without recourse.

      Fair point. I just hold the opinion he’s both an asshole and he’s used and enabled by other actors to stay this way. He sure has an agency, even if it’s a bit less than NT persons have.
