Madness isn't a real disease. The reasons humans act the way they do that give rise to fascist takeovers are manifold and complex, and boiling them all down to "those people are just crazy" is tempting because it reduces an overwhelming and complex problem down to a diagnosis that we can wrap our little brains around, but it does nothing to explain or fix the problem. I think it actually makes the problem worse because it feels like a conclusive answer when it's not. I get the impulse, I really do, but I wish we would stop.
