Listener question: denial and bypass

Listener question: Can you speak to the mind's tendency to hear/label statements like "there is no other" or "there is no self" or "any thought isn't true, all thoughts are untrue" or "this world is an illusion" as denial or bypassing illness, injury, racism, and other harms in this physical world? Is this a slippery way for the mind to reinforce itself and be "right" with its insistence that there IS a world, people, etc.? Or is the mind reinforcing itself when it avoids illness, injury, racism, etc. through using these statements? Both/And? No way to know?
