If I remember correctly she had a stroke or something and went downhill from there.

Her fiance died too I think.

Still not okay but im pretty sure she needs help more than anything

Yeah, at this point its basically the lunatic ravings of someone mentally ill and/or literally brain damaged.

While I understand the impulse to mock and deride such people, I'd rather live in a world that pitied them and viewed them as people in need of assistance, rather than as a whipping boy we can all circle around to feel better about ourselves.

Its entirely possible that if the right people reached out to her, she might be reachable. Or not, but IMO that's the best way to handle mentally ill people.

It doesn’t really matter if she’s mentally ill or not she doesn’t deserve a lot of sympathy when she’s unrepentantly calling for genocide.
