Discussion today included her saying this “they, them” crap, this giving kids hormones and surgery crap, these trans women trying to say they ARE women, this public school crap (CRT type teaching) has made her realized she can’t do the liberal stuff anymore. She say Bill Maher and Joe Rogan, who are liberals, are right about the conservative stuff they’ve been saying lately. She wants to homeschool her son now. WE ARE BRINGING THE LIGHT TO THE DARKNESS!!!

It's not about how far into insanity they go, it's about how quickly.
Beliefs just as "crazy" have been adopted by entire populations more times than can be counted. The development of these beliefs was gradual however, with generations adopting little bits and pieces until the entire societal ideology was completely changed from what preceded it. (Unless there was a hostile takeover. That speeds up the ideological adoption substantially by making certain beliefs illegal and others mandatory on punishment of death; see the first 30 years of the USSR.)
The "crazy liberal" beliefs we see today were started in the 1960s. From there they went super slowly. Once you look, it is easy to trace the gradual changes, heading towards a one world communism (with all the Baphomet stuff added in). However, in the past 10 years, and especially in the past 5 there has been a huge increase in momentum. Without time to adapt to small changes, and having huge changes forced on us (with insufficient fear or "penalty of death" to encourage adoption), too many people see what is happening. That causes it to fail.
In other words, it's not recognized as "insane" because it's actually insane (all ideologies are insane). It's "insane" because it has happened so fast that everyone can see the end result. That end result is too far from the beliefs of the present, thus the "insanity" is recognized.
Bottom line: it's "insane" because it is intended to be seen as insane.
Something, something, Operation Warp Speed, something.
"Warp Speed" isn't just for Federation Starships and Vaccines.
Insanity is a delusional psychosis, a disconnect from reality. Putting preference on one's delusions. It is what it is. We see it now because it has reached a pathological state. Those who are insane lose all sense of self-recognition and cannot understand how "insane" they appear. So, they just walk outside in the nude, so to speak.
