There is a remarkable thing about the photo on the right. The people are unveiling a Civil War statue that has stood unveiled for a century.In other words, they veiled it for a ceremonial unveiling.

Most individuals with OCD [obsessive compulsive disorder] recognize at some point that their obsessions are coming from within their own minds and are not just excessive worries about real problems, and that the compulsions they perform are excessive or unreasonable. When someone with OCD does not recognize that their beliefs and actions are unreasonable, this is called OCD with poor insightOCD with poor insight - seems a useful idea in this context.
