Nazism as a mental illness ?

Nazism is not considered a mental illness in the traditional sense, as it is a political ideology based on extreme nationalism, racism, and authoritarianism. However, some experts argue that individuals who adhere to Nazi beliefs may exhibit traits of personality disorders or other mental health issues, such as narcissism, sociopathy, or paranoia. It is important to differentiate between holding extreme beliefs and having a diagnosable mental illness.
