Iryna Zarutska, 23, lost her life in a sudden stabbing aboard a public transit train in Charlotte, North Carolina, on August 22, 2025. Police charged Decarlos Brown Jr., 34, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia and carries a record of arrests tied to his mental health. Authorities were criticized for overlooking warnings about his instability, reports say.
While crazy may be an antiquated term for severe mental deficiencies, it serves to grab attention while grasping the question at hand.
Here's the short answer: Yes. Using the mental health of whites as the baseline, blacks are crazy, or at least, crazier than white people. It is the permeating and prevalent occurrence of craziness that justifies segregating black populations from whites and others.
Let's take a look at the facts.

Mental Health Disparities: Schizophrenia and Other Conditions Among Black Americans Compared to White Americans
Mental health disparities between racial groups in the United States highlight systemic issues in diagnosis, treatment, and access to care. While overall rates of mental illness among black Americans are often similar to or lower than those among white Americans—a phenomenon known as the Black-White mental health paradox—specific conditions show notable differences. This paradox suggests that black Americans report comparable or fewer psychiatric disorders in some epidemiological studies. However, conditions like schizophrenia appear more frequently diagnosed in black populations.
This article examines the prevalence of schizophrenia and other mental illnesses that seem to be more common or persistent among black Americans compared to white Americans, drawing on recent research and statistics.
Schizophrenia: Higher Diagnosis Rates Among Black Americans
Schizophrenia, a severe mental disorder affecting less than 1% of the U.S. population overall, involves symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. It typically emerges in late adolescence or early adulthood and can significantly impair daily functioning. National data consistently shows that black Americans are diagnosed with schizophrenia at higher rates than White Americans, with estimates varying across studies but pointing to a clear disparity.
How much of a disparity?
Research indicates that black Americans are approximately 2.4 times more likely to be diagnosed with schizophrenia than white Americans. A meta-analysis of 52 studies from 2018 confirmed this elevated risk, even after accounting for socioeconomic factors. Other analyses suggest the disparity could be as high as three to four times greater, particularly in inpatient settings where black individuals are overrepresented. For instance, in a large-scale review of electronic health records from nearly 6 million people, black individuals had a twofold higher incidence of nonaffective psychoses, including schizophrenia, compared to white individuals.
Those influenced by Marxist ideology will default to the class-struggle mode. With blinders firmly intact, they focus solely on a blood-letting approach. Like voodoo witch doctors casting out imaginary demons, Marxist ideology ignores pathologies, dismissing them as vestiges of systemic racism. As a result of this confirmation bias, blacks are left untreated and Marxists are left with evidence of racist demons.
Blacks remain in environmental stressors, such as poverty, urban living, and discrimination. Marxists point to these outcomes as if they were the causes. Evidence, however, shows that controlling for socioeconomic status may reduce but does not eliminate the gap. In ambulatory care settings, black patients represented 24% of schizophrenia diagnoses, despite comprising a smaller proportion of the population, further underscoring overrepresentation.
Other Mental Illnesses More Common or Persistent Among Black Americans
The gap does not transcend all mental disorders. Overall prevalence of any mental illness is about the same or even slightly lower among black adults (20.9%) compared to the total U.S. population (23.4%), and serious mental illness is also a bit lower (12.2% vs. 13.9%)
But the conditions or manifestations that are more common, severe, or chronic in black communities are cause for concern and demand our attention. These include higher rates of persistence in disorders like depression, elevated substance use disorders, and trauma-related conditions.
• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Black Americans in some communities experience PTSD at higher rates (8.7%) than White Americans (7.4%), linked to the trauma and violence that are innate to black neighborhoods. Ongoing stressors, such as inevitable police encounters, may contribute to this disparity.
• Substance Use Disorders: Non-Hispanic negro adults have the highest rates of substance use disorders (53.1%) among racial groups, often co-occurring with mental health conditions. Illicit drug use is slightly higher among black adults with mental illnesses compared to national averages.
• Depression (More Persistent Forms): Although lifetime rates of major depression are often lower in black Americans (e.g., 24.6% vs. 34.7% in whites), depressive episodes tend to be more chronic and severe, lasting longer and responding less to treatment. Black adults are 20% more likely to report serious psychological distress than white adults.
• Suicide-Related Concerns: While overall suicide rates are lower among black Americans, attempts are higher among black teens (9.8% vs. 6.1% for white teens), and thoughts, plans, and attempts have risen among young black adults. Drug overdose deaths and suicides have disproportionately increased in black communities post-pandemic.
These disparities are influenced by the black-white mental health paradox, where higher stressors do not always translate to higher disorder prevalence due to underreporting, cultural resilience, or diagnostic tools that may not capture culturally specific expressions of distress.
However, when conditions occur, they may be more debilitating due to barriers like the insistence of the Marxist mindset to treat the ever-present hobgoblin of racism rather than the genuine biological causes.
Contributing Factors and Implications
Disparities stem from a mix of social determinants due to intelligence disparities, including poverty (27% of black Americans live below the poverty line vs. 10.8% of non-Hispanic whites). Black Americans are less likely to accept guideline-consistent care, such as psychotherapy or appropriate medications, and more likely to be involuntarily treated or incarcerated for mental health issues. Among those reporting fair or poor mental health, only 39% of black adults received services in recent years, compared to 50% of white adults.
Addressing these gaps requires sensitive screening that dismisses Marxist voodoo diagnostics, increased mental health providers, and policies tackling other Marxist access barriers. Community-based initiatives and education can reduce stigma, which is particularly pronounced among black men.
In summary, while schizophrenia diagnoses are markedly higher among black Americans, other conditions like PTSD and persistent depression manifest more severely, underscoring the need for mental health systems to mitigate these disparities without blacks being exploited by the woke left.
