Not to the same level. Yes, while being a sociopath and a narcissist are mental illness, it's not the same thing as bipolar or other conditions requiring antipsychotics where your perception of reality is fucked.
That's why there's different groups of mental illnesses. You can't say that someone with schizophrenia and someone with depression are the same because they both have a mental illness.
I would argue that a narcissist also has an incredibly skewed and warped sense of reality, and I would point out that their desperate need for attention can cause them to lash out in a manner consistent with schizoid-typal disorder.
Its not really fair to excuse Kanye over his schizoid-typal disorders, but then argue Musk's mental illnesses are irrelevant. Either their mental health had nothing to do with them developing their hateful ideology, or it had everything to do with it. You can't pick and choose. I'd point to the large swathes of people suffering from mental illness who haven't become Nazis as evidence that it's not as relevant as the choices these men have made are.
You can absolutely pick and choose, because personality disorders are very different than schizo effective disorders, and no two individuals are the same. You can't apply absolutes to mental health and each individual should be evaluated on a case by case basis.
Not every manic person goes out and fucks everyone in sight, I'd even say the majority don't, but that doesn't mean the hypersexuality isn't caused by the disease.
