Nowadays everybody is getting diagnosed to avoid the responsibilities for their actions. So yeah, that description is *beep*

How about "acts of will"? How about saying: hey! perhaps people is not sick and they're in a sick environment and they're acting according to it? But of course, they'll have to respond for it.

I've a best description for this film:
"A man wants to see her daughter for her birthday. The town, its laws, its people have become crooked and are not allowing him to. He's getting sick of it. He'll try to make it his way. Will he suceed at it?"

See? It sounds as if he's making choices, but you say that thing of "Borderline personality disordered" that's medicalization and infantilization of an adult's conduct who is responding to the environment he's in. Social justice squads are even f#cking imdb descriptions.

Wait, was that recently edited?

Whoever wrote it is an idiot and has no idea what borderline personality disorder even is.

Yeah, @jptf2 as you said they do not know what that is, in fact, now the description says: "A borderline personality disordered defense worker frustrated with the various flaws he sees in society, begins to psychotically and violently lash out against them."

Now in top of that IMDB says "IMDb, we have decided to disable IMDb's message boards on February 20, 2017. This includes the Private Message system. After in-depth discussion and examination, we have concluded that IMDb's message boards are no longer providing a positive, useful experience for the vast majority of our more than 250 million monthly users worldwide." Which basically means:
"Users are not useful anymore to promote the garbage we're promoting and for which we (IMDB) have being paid for".
Also this is another translation:
"Communication among users we can't fully monitor is not providing positive and useful experience for IMDB directors and the people working on it".
