Your question is spurious.
Not more than your question that implied that I'm a paid shill. So, don't be such a hypocrite. Try having some intellectual honesty.
Your inference, not my implication. Claiming I'm a hypocrite or intellectually dishonest based on a strawman born of ignorance rather suggests that you are the intellectually dishonest hypocrite, does it not? Should I be generous and allow you to take refuge in your ignorance, or should I hold you to the standards which you've applied to others in this thread?
If you would actually like to know what my implication is, feel free to ask me rather than projecting whatever fantasy best suits your rhetoric over my words. Of course, the previous caveat still applies.

Where's your evidence that Chronos "must be completely delusional" in support of your personal attack? We were promised "facts and logic".
Well, maybe not completely. Just partly delusional.
In that case, if you have even an ounce of integrity, you'll retract all of the infantile personal attacks and issue an apology. I'm going to predict that you do not.

Were I discussing the subject of other people's alleged delusions, I'd refrain from self-aggrandising rhetorical conceits.

"Turing was gay and had mental problems, and the system destroyed his life completely, literally. Do you really think that being a woman is worse than that?"
If someone really thinks that being a woman is worse than being disowned by your country and chemically castrated, than that someone definitely must be delusional - i.e. "having false or unrealistic beliefs or opinions" (from the dictionary). Simple.
Such as the "false or unrealistic belief" that someone who cleaves to a false or unrealistic belief or opinion "must be completely delusional", or indeed the "false or unrealistic belief" that one is an educator in a classroom rather than a participant in an online discussion with a penchant for ad hominem and who presents as something of a troll.
