DEADLY COCKTAIL OF ISLAND MENTALITY AND PARANOID PERSONALITY DISORDER MIX !

A long-term habit of mistrust and suspicion of people without good cause is a sign of paranoid personality disorder (PPD), a mental health disease (paranoia).

People with PPD frequently think that others are threatening, demeaning, or harming them.

The idea that isolated societies think of themselves as exceptional or superior to the rest of the world is known as the "Island mentality."

This phrase describes the superiority of a group of people or an isolated individual on a cultural, moral, or ideological level rather than an island or other geographically isolated society.

Narrow-mindedness, ignorance, or outright animosity against any artefact (idea, ideology, lifestyle choice, an art form, etc.) originating from beyond the geographical area inhabited by the society can be used to describe island mentality.

Many people in Sri Lanka are infected with a lethal cocktail made up of the two ideas.

They always have these baseless conspiracy theories and useless showing off aloofness in their behaviour because of this.

They are being encouraged by politicians who rely more on racial tensions than on effective programs, as well as by those who wear robes to back politicians’ foolish arguments.

Without quick and efficient treatment for both illnesses, Sri Lanka would likely remain underdeveloped for a foreseeable time.
