Shizoeffective disorders… most mental disorders are just mismatch disorders…. Nothing actually wrong with you…. Its just that you do not fit nicely into what the modern world requires for whatever level of provision and accomplishment you are driven to. You do not fit the paradigm norms…. The actual mental illness over time can progress and occurs from the initial schizo affective state growing into a more dementia/stress induced neurodegenerative state. If you look at the data… only using meds for episodes then remaining off meds actually decreases rates of relapse… schizophrenia and most mental disorders are “curable” without turning people into empty drugged up shells. That just doesnt make as much money for pharma so…. For example, look at the studies with DHA, Uridine, choline daily intake. Reverts the neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory state back to a functional state of repair and antionflammatory processes.
I always said, whatever crazy idea I come up with, someone out there is actually trying to do it... luckily all my ideas are too crazy to ever work so we're safe
This guy settled desegregation disputes, helped businesses during bankruptcy, ran a massively successful business almost singlehandedly, hated governments, and tried to starve the IRS to death. I think he was the good guy.

Basically like cutting off pieces of someone's brain✂🧠 until they cooperate. It is in my opinion one of the more depraved things to do to an enemy. If our governments do this to people - I'd advocate for the governments destruction.

If Frank did indeed own the company you worked for, at least he had your back if something happened to you. Can't say that for most employers these days.
find a billionaire that isn't "eccentric", no really, try that. Shit like that fucks with a person's mind. A single individual was never meant to hold such wealth and power.
The mention of bioluminescent CIA agents made me realize that Count Dankula ought to cover Terry Davis. The lad almost succeeded in making a 3D printer in the 90s and made his own OS in his own programming language despite literally being a schizophrenic who spent a good chunk of the development time homeless.
he was living with his parents while developing templeOS and wasn't homeless until he got kicked out for attacking his father, well after templeOS had been completed
While I think that Dankula would put a fun twist to it, I feel like it'd have the same effect as covering Chris Chan. Everybody knows about him already, there's a billion of well documented videos about the subject, unlike a good chunk of the Mad Lads.
I can't help but like this guy. He doesn't strike me as a bad person or even all that fraudulent. He seems to be a genuinely good dude who was just playing by the rules that already existed to game the system, and the whole "taking over the world" schtick is just him being batshit crazy

@@clownworld4655 The Mongolian people still sing about that motherfucker. Should be a Madlad video on it's own. Everything from the time he killed his half-brother and escaped slavery to how he revolutionized his loot distribution among his men, made social mobility possible for lower classes, and how he adapted to siege warfare when he brought his armies to more settled, agrarian lands. And how he single-handedly invented a stereotype for Asian people.

@@clownworld4655 I mean, at the end of the day, he still killed enough people to lower the carbon footprint at the time, and bred a fuckton of bastards, but if he didn't make crucial reforms like that at the time, he never would have built the empire that came closest to conquering the world.
This man feels like an antihero. Helping others around him, but having his own ambitions at the end of it all, which is to claim ultimate victory over conquest of the entire world.
Is me. Lol my book will be a means to help the American people. When I've turned the system on its head by providing everyone power and insurance and making their own self sustainable properties.
@@StarboyXL9 He threatened to commit mass murder of a civilian population at least twice who had done nothing wrong as revenge for not getting his way. One of those times he had the capability to do so.
I give this man major credit for being so motivated to do all the things that he did. People might have only seen his ramblings as delusions but to him they were his dreams.and he tried really hard to make them come true.
He deserves a role like that. He's payed his dues, Yes Sir, the check is in the mail. and he should most definitely get paid a more decent wage for this venture..
Frank seems like any rational person becoming a billionaire. The only reason I don't have a private army of African child soldiers is I currently lack the funds not the ambition
So you are saying that because you don't have the funds necessary to build an army full of pre-pubescent children that wouldn't stop you creating one if you did have the funds? That's fucked up dude. If you are talking about Frank then yeah he's a nutball lmao.
Me watching a movie: The supervillain would never just explain his evil plan like that! Frank Amodeo to NATO: So this is how I'm going to take over the world with my private army!
Think about it like this. NATO tells us to our faces what they want to do to us, because they're confident they have the power to crush our dissent. Frank did that, but to world leaders. Imagine the fucking confidence he felt, mainly due to his mania but the fact that he made progress surely sent it to the god damn moon.
With every passing minute I was rooting for Frank more and more even though I knew the outcome. A little part of me wants to look out out the window and see giant zepplins with Frank's face on declaring him emperor of the world.
His being on the Golden Throne is just a depressive episode. Once he goes Manic then the Eldar, Tyranids, Tau, and Orks are going to collectively.shit themselves.
If he was still alive my grandfather would be 106 and I remember him telling me even a hundred years ago schools raised money sent tinned food to Africa bear in mind the kids going to school there were all living in poverty themselves, If anyone wants to fix Africa first thing you need is a rifle. Otherwise your just sending money food and aid to some warlord who's men hold up the refugee camps and aid convoys. Africa will never be self sufficient its corrupt all the way through, you would need to go to war and nearly destroy the continent then rebuild....even then some arsehole would still rise to power and start the whole thing again.
@@Svoorhout85 the main problem that creates all this African instability and poverty is meddling from countries like France and the US with the express goal of ending protectionism in African countries. Any time an African politician wants to instate policies that would withhold natural resources unless the government (or local companies) are properly reimbursed, a French, English, etc. old colonial power assasinates them and blames it on a local party. You can probably see how this leads to the issues we see today in Africa. That 'great hardware' is being used in the favor of foreign companies and governments for their own 'software' needs.
Imagine what he could have gotten away with it if he didn’t go on repeated episodes of spelling out his plan to take over the world. This could have been the one guy who actually pulled it off
I'll just say, mania was both his best friend and his greatest weakness, since even I, as someone with Bipolar disorder, just feel compulsed to tell people every little secret or plan that I have at all times when I'm extremely motivated (which I now know are manic episodes). I just have more self control than Frank in that regard.
Frank: This is Frank. We surrender, please don't fucking kill us. IRS: Ok, but you have to give up the Blackhawks and the Vader helmet Frank: The what? IRS: The Blackhawks, Frank. What the hell- Frank: No no no no, the other thing IRS: The Vader helmet? Fran: ... IRD: Frank, please, that thing is cutting air to your brain... Frank: ... *ONE MILLION TROOPS! I WILL FUCKING GAS PALM BEACH! IM THE GOD EMPEROR OF TERRA! MY FORCES WILL GLASS WASHINGTON AND NATO WILL BE DISSOLVED WITH THE PRESIDENT AT MY FEET!!! GHAAAGH!! RELEASE ME, YOU THIEVES! I'LL TURBINE YOU ALL!!*
He's was so close to taking over the world that they had to pump him full of drugs and railroad him just so he couldnt wiggle free again. Honestly props to Frank. Edit: Obviously he just tried again. You never see a Supervillan just go "Oh I got caught better give up ruling the world."
@@ianthompson2802 Of course he does....what kind of world domination organization do you think he runs...does he have an impala with 30 inch blades...
imagine being a single guy and putting so much fear into the most powerful deepstate on the planet that they section you and pump you full of tranquilizers to stop you.
He's genius. All the labelling on his mental health yet he did so much that others can never do. Totally broke my heart that they drugged him up and threw away the key.
@@psilocycho2761 I mean, all he did was say exactly what 20 other Billionaires are currently doing, right now, and have been since before he even started to. If you want to call someone a psychopath for being unable to tell a lie... I mean, I guess.
I honestly wouldn't mind this guy being the dictator of the world, he cares about justice, strives for peace through conflict resolution, is honest about his plans and beliefs, and seems to care for the people he serves. That's a lot more than I can say about most politicians.
Indeed, but there is always the problem of succession, even if we manage to make the almighty Terran emperor immortal, a stray bullet or something could find their head. So our Almighty would need to find a worthy successor and vet them for decades to be sure they are just as morally grounded and pure as our leader.

@@ivangorodokin7605 He'd probably say he would backstab you or kill your entire town, and then when the bad guys come for you he would bust in at the last minute with a squad of his goons to save your ass and then tell you about how George Bush was going to kneel in his grave for this.
You've told a lot of interesting stories through Absolute Mad Lads, but this one is by far my favourite. Not only was Frank clearly extremely intelligent, highly driven (by his mania), but he maintained popularity for so long, and was honestly extremely successful as far as our traditional views of "world domination" go. Accumulating mass wealth through his own mad ideas. Building a small army. Getting in to African politics. Showing how mad he really is by threatening to destroy a city. Building a large army. Threatening the IRS. And the way the finally took him down was to have him sectioned and dope him up on meds. Then he went full Andy Dufresne in prison and started applying his expertise to help out some of the injustices in the US legal system. He was mad, but in a way that's honestly admirable in many ways. Whatever is happening in the world, Frank is definitely the main character. Nobody else has set such lofty goals and somehow achieved as much success as Frank has. I'm imagining this as a TV show with Danny DeVito playing Frank (Amadeo, not Reynolds)
Someone once explained to me that "two shots to the back of the head = suicide." Thing, was actually the government or whomever's way of "sending a message". I would also say, that the government drugging Frank and then declaring him "incompetent" while he's able to do and accomplish the extreme shit he's able to do (clearly displaying that he's in fact, hypercompetent) is also a means of sending a message
Then you'll also recognize that the bullshit surrounding January 6th is also "a message". Our side can burn down cities, loot and murder, but you aren't even allowed to protest without being held for "terrorism".
I am 110% on Frank's side, are you kidding me? I'd happily live in a Frank controlled world than one where the state can get away with doing that to a man they fear.
Ben O he was a man of truly higher ambition like Caesar, or Napoleon. Once his legions had subdued the world, he would have been too busy founding the first colonies beyond holy Terra, genetically engineering his gene seed for a new elite legions, and reserving his wrath for whatever alien species it is sending all these UFOs at us.
A psychotic man with a plan of world domination through totalitarian economics sounds even worse than governments. Ohh wait we already have those kind of people everywhere.

Think about it like this. NATO tells us to our faces what they want to do to us, because they're confident they have the power to crush our dissent.
Frank did that, but to world leaders.
Imagine the fucking confidence he felt, mainly due to his mania but the fact that he made progress surely sent it to the god damn moon.

Otherwise your just sending money food and aid to some warlord who's men hold up the refugee camps and aid convoys.

Africa is a PC with great hardware but lousy software. I wonder what would happen if the continent unified under 1 leader.
War, probably.
@@Svoorhout85 the main problem that creates all this African instability and poverty is meddling from countries like France and the US with the express goal of ending protectionism in African countries. Any time an African politician wants to instate policies that would withhold natural resources unless the government (or local companies) are properly reimbursed, a French, English, etc. old colonial power assasinates them and blames it on a local party. You can probably see how this leads to the issues we see today in Africa. That 'great hardware' is being used in the favor of foreign companies and governments for their own 'software' needs.

Indeed, but there is always the problem of succession, even if we manage to make the almighty Terran emperor immortal, a stray bullet or something could find their head.

Saving Private Ryan but it actually happened and wasn't a PR stunt.
I hope there's a universe where Frank's genius and ambition are recognise, but also he got the bipolar diagnosis and treatment early on
He would’ve lost the genius and ambition.
You've told a lot of interesting stories through Absolute Mad Lads, but this one is by far my favourite.
Not only was Frank clearly extremely intelligent, highly driven (by his mania), but he maintained popularity for so long, and was honestly extremely successful as far as our traditional views of "world domination" go.
Accumulating mass wealth through his own mad ideas. Building a small army. Getting in to African politics. Showing how mad he really is by threatening to destroy a city. Building a large army. Threatening the IRS.
And the way the finally took him down was to have him sectioned and dope him up on meds.
Then he went full Andy Dufresne in prison and started applying his expertise to help out some of the injustices in the US legal system.
He was mad, but in a way that's honestly admirable in many ways.
Whatever is happening in the world, Frank is definitely the main character. Nobody else has set such lofty goals and somehow achieved as much success as Frank has.
I'm imagining this as a TV show with Danny DeVito playing Frank (Amadeo, not Reynolds)

Idk, "But would the government really help their people?" doesn't sound like a question that could be truthfully answered with "Yes"
Well, if it's in the matter of being competent, the answer is certainly no
Someone once explained to me that "two shots to the back of the head = suicide." Thing, was actually the government or whomever's way of "sending a message".
I would also say, that the government drugging Frank and then declaring him "incompetent" while he's able to do and accomplish the extreme shit he's able to do (clearly displaying that he's in fact, hypercompetent) is also a means of sending a message
Then you'll also recognize that the bullshit surrounding January 6th is also "a message". Our side can burn down cities, loot and murder, but you aren't even allowed to protest without being held for "terrorism".
