It's important not to call others deranged, most of human history is the story of elites and wealthy kings/queens/emporeres and those in power misleading their people. It's not soo much that anyone in particular is deranged when talking about the "masses", the masses simply lack critical information and are not presented with it very often when they do get it.
It takes years and years for someone to finally realize, holy shit, watching CNN/FOX/MSNBC/ABC/NBC its all funded by Big Oil, Big Pharma, Sugar Industry, etc. All of the people paying for ad time is who control us currently.
The same repeated message is sent out over and over and over again, MOST people immediately receieve the "message" and run with it without any critical thinking. Most people will NEVER learn that they are being subtly brainwashed when they watch CNN/FOX/ETC. They truely think it's all real, factual, etc.
You can see it most prominently on reddit, where they turn out to be almost always wrong on everything and continually push the narrative they are correct because "muh compassion". Then you can see the same on the right when they continually think republicans care about anything other than making millions from selling stocks and insider trading.
Both parties have to go!
