Types of delusions are misleading

I been into page 89 of DSM V journal, the one from 2013. Not sure where these categories is coming from. They actually have a long list of types, in diagnose F22.

David Graeber

the Criticism section sites critiques from David Graeber and gives his book Bullshit Jobs as a source but delusions are never mentioned in that nor is it even related to the topic of the book. I couldn't find any source of him talking about this topic so I replaced the citation with a [citation needed]. If a citation can't be found I recommend the paragraph be replaced by some else's critiques oh how delusions are understood. I can recommend Mircea Eliade, R. D. Laing, and/or Michel Foucault.
