One of my favourite movies. Douglas' character says and does things everyone wants to but doesn't. It's a little more difficult to take these days with all of the losers with mental health issues hurting others but it's still worth seeing.

So let's get this straight: "everyone" wants to take up arms and wave around automatic weapons at fast food restaurants when they don't serve you the food you want? You're obviously picturing yourself in the Michael Douglas role.
Try putting yourself in the shoes of the people who have someone who's clearly unhinged waving a gun in your face because you're trying to do your job. My wife worked at a convenience store years ago and had some punk point a gun right at her demanding cash. It might be "fun" to imagine yourself doing the gun pointing but let me tell you for a fact that being on the other end isn't something you'd want to wish on anybody.
I'm also not sure why you chose to combine "loser" with "mental health issues." I have a close relative with mental health issues that sometimes make some days really difficult to get through and those close to her have a rough go at times because of her condition. I would never think of her as a "loser" because it's something she's had to manage the better part of her adult life, which makes her one of the most courageous and toughest people I know.
I'm not going to theorize about what your views on mental illness are or if you yourself know anyone with or anything about mental health issues, but I am going to suggest rather strongly that you think very carefully before using terms like "loser" when talking about this issue.
If I wish to call someone who hurts others a loser, no matter what their mental state is, either feigned or real, that's my business. And if you want to write a wall of text in response to a movie review, that's your business.
