      Not him, but a bunch of other people on his political party.

      It does feel a little like an attempt to legitimise it, so that criticisms are flipped off as mental illness, and/or an opportunity for institutionalising/excluding political opponents for much the same reason.

        This is their attempt to get around that pesky 1st amendment. Make criticism of the king a “mental disorder”, and then you can lock them up involuntarily “for their own protection”.
