Pathologising those who disagree with a current viewpoint follows a long and proud tradition. "Possessed by demons" of yesteryear, today it's "AI psychosis".

It's not about "Pathologising those who disagree", it's about how demonic influence (which anyone can fall victim to) _actually_ works.

You've highlighted a very real equivalency in spite of yourself.

> demonic influence

Is this an unironic usage of this word? If you're trying to make a different point, it doesn't come across.

> You've highlighted a very real equivalency in spite of yourself

The equivalence doesn't help you, because "possessed by demons" has been used to describe people who are sick, playing D&D, reading comics, listening to music, being women, and it is frivolous and embarrassing to take seriously.
