I wonder if this was from Milwaukee. There used to be a crazy guy in Milwaukee that drove around with a car like this, with writing all over it, and the handwriting was just like this. It also had a busted loudspeaker on the top, playing a fried voice that you couldn't understand.
Most of the stuff seemed to be about abortion conspiracy theories.
All the crazys that write conspiracy theories on their cars have this exact same script style. At least in my experience. It makes me wonder if the writing style is one of the symptoms. Because it is uncannily similar every time ive seen it.
Anyone remember the time-cube guy? He had a crazy website where he ranted about how 24hr days are a conspiracy. THE DAY IS A TIMECUBE! This image reminds me of him.
Wow I remember laughing at him back in high school and didn't remember the bigotry but holy fuck yikes. That may be the most antisemitic thing I've read. The homophobia is vitriolic but I've heard worse and it's undercut by the severe mental illness. The racism is played out and old school. The mental illness though was amusingly severe.
Did get a good reaction image out of reading it though as well as my fair share of laughs
You know, one possible explanation is that the dude was painfully unaware of time zones and the time cube was just his way of justifying how different places can all have sunlight at the same hour... And the fact nobody questioned how the sun can be up at 1pm in the US while also being up at 1pm in like Australia made him think it was a huge conspiracy
There are plenty of other possibilities, and I don't think bipolar is actually the most likely. Although psychosis and delusions can definitely be a part of bipolar type I they don't have to be, and are more commonly associated with, for example, schizophrenia or schizophreniform disorder or schizotypal personality. Of course these are often comorbid, complicating things. But I wouldn't jump so quickly to such a specific diagnosis based on one picture.
I'm clearly not able to officially diagnose this person. Please understand I'm just shooting off the cuff on Lemmy, where everyone else here is like "hey everyone, laugh at the crazy guy." Imo those are the people you should be directing your ire at.
In my experience, this sort of goal directed activity and paranoid scrawlings are much more likely to be the result of severe mania with psychosis than schizophrenia, delusional disorder, or schizophreniform disorder, where disorganization and amotivation are more likely to occur and lead someone to be "stuck" rather than decorate an entire vehicle and drive it around town.
