Are the supremely mentally ill responsible for their actions? Are they still condemned even if they are unaware or didn’t willingly choose this? Or are they punished nonetheless by virtue of being the product of other people’s sins?

That is literally every single soul in Maya.
>GITA 3.27: The spirit soul bewildered by the influence of false ego thinks himself the doer of activities that are in actuality carried out by the three modes of material nature.
We are all delusional. We are all identifying with energy that is not us. We are all observing the actions of material energy and suffering or enjoying on the delusion that we are what we observe.
Karma is the action and reaction of material energy. Karma never affects the soul. But a deluded soul will suffer or enjoy karma.
So as long as you think you are the doer of actions, you will be responsible for those actions.
