I agree with your point about Laruelle, although granted I've not read much of himself, non-philosophy is just a way to attract attention imo.

Hmm reconsidering, Deleuze isn't that special, but understanding him is a great tool to understand most contemporary philosophy, especially in the speculative realism camp. He does have cool insights, but lots of unnecessary verbiage.

That article talks about the genetic clustering of schizophrenia, but the study abstract is more illustrative.

So it does give some credence to your idea, that it is a group of disorders are are correlated in a network, which is interesting because it connotates how schizophrenia might be archetypal -- correlated traits put into one character. Although it is a preliminary study and weak evidence- just correlating epidemiologies -- it is interesting and I would tend to agree with you.

That quote from Foucault is really interesting, I think it demonstrates the corrosive nature of idealism, how external states can be constantly mapped into internal states so that in appearances, there are no external states.
