John Phillips of PJMedia talks to Scott Ott and Steven Kruiser in a valiant attempt to sort out the Rachel Dolezal enigma ~
 

 
I’m leaning towards the “nuts” theory.
As Ott says at one point, not that long ago, Dolezal would have been institutionalized. We used to call the guys in the white coats when people started talking crazy, believing they were a different gender… or race… or disabled vs. able-bodied (What’s next? Trans-species?). Back in the day, delusional behavior was considered a psychotic break with reality.
 
If we as a society drift much further into the twilight zone, we’ll really have no further use for the entire field of psychiatry.
