On their own, no, but if someone hears voices that aren’t there telling them to go feed the homeless, that person is mentally ill, just the results of that are socially beneficial instead of harmful in this case.
Clearly because they put more value in their lives than those of others. What do these freaks call other people? Non-player characters? They don’t matter, because they’re not themselves. Narcissism to the extreme.
They hate. They feel antogonistic towards this society. They blame every their failure on it. They want to hurt it, the cosmos of things they hate, to make it burn, to make it suffer.
Offing themselves isn’t the goal, but they’d feel weak if they’d just surrender to it. Instead they choose fucking with their pain, with a collective of those they blame for it, while leaving this hydra helpless to presecute them. If they are to quit, what else matters?
In gunning down random people they feel relief, the reclamation of power over their shitty life for once. They don’t see people, just parts of thing hurting them, hated by them. They feel like there exists only two actors: they vs the world. And inflicting damage on the world is answering to whatever this world did to them.
One can’t rationalize this purely irrational reaction.
I agree with you that people hearing voices does not necessarily mean they are violent or dangerous. The majority of people who hear voices have never and will never hurt anyone.
Jehanne d’Arc technically never took a human life directly…but she’s famous for being a rallying symbol of France and strategic wartime leader. That doesn’t exactly make her hands clean even if she never technically killed anyone. Shes also reported as having had a pretty vicious temper that lead to her doing things like chasing prostitutes with a sword which isn’t exactly the epitome of peaceful and undangerous.

I mean, there might be mentally ill people who feel compelled to do things like that, but they don’t exactly make the news do they?
Because feeding the homeless or starting a sanctuary for pets is socially beneficial and isn’t considered mental illness.

Yeah we should be careful about encouraging mentally ill people to kill themselves and instead encourage (and enable) them to get help

👀👀I mean… Gestures widely at religion
They need a scapegoat for their pain.
I’d venture because that’s their general disposition, anyway. Jeanne d’Arc heard voices too, never took a human life.

Point taken.
