There are so many, it will take a lot of work. I avoid people as much as possible because most people are certifiable. So they generally have to be humored when interacting. And that's not much fun. Life for an animal with humanoid cognitive capacity is pretty much untenable. That is the core existential dilemma, and it makes for a lot of crazy. I run across a lot of people with various forms of religious dementia, like "Bible Study Derangement Syndrome". That's a common one in the USA. People go crazy trying to "make sense of things". People have a nightmarish idea, and then they take that idea seriously, and think it's "real" and then there is fear, and then they engage in bizarre ritual activity to mitigate that fear, and the descent to madness is swift and brutal. Some people seem more susceptible than others. But those who are very susceptible and very crazy are a danger to themselves and others. The patterns are common in human history, in human society. I would prefer not to be caught up in that sort of thing.
