But we can't change other people. If a person is ignorant on a disorder, they are willfully ignorant, by choice, because there is a wealth of information and many different views to consider that they could access with nothing more than an internet connection. People who believe that BPD makes people into murderers, want to believe that. They want reality to be extremely simple and easy to understand. They don't want to do the long, hard work of contemplating the complexity of human beings and various circumstances. These people cannot and will not be persuaded from ignorance, because they cling to ignorance like a comforting blanket. And in such a case, the best we can do is hold tight to reality, ourselves.
