what's funny is that narcissists only play the victim and never fully accept that they are the victim because they believe being the victim is beneath them.
they generally only play the victim when it achieves their end goal.
narcissists are the best prey to victimize because they can never admit that they are the victim when it doesn't fit their goal. not only do they suffer in silence, they spend an inordinate amount of time attempting to plan retribution which only makes them easier to manipulate. as long as you maintain the ability to stomp on their progress while achieving their goal of revenge, you can play with narcissists endlessly until they tear themselves apart.
Yes, this is true, I have NPD (caused by parental abuse as a small child), and it has made Me very easy to abuse. I was having flashbacks and thought spirals for years after I was abused by an intimate partner. In the end I lost My job because of it and became homeless.
And just like any other disorder, I'd ask that you use either person first or identity first language. Person first would be "person with NPD" and identity first would be "narcissistic person". Shortening the disorder name into a label is against the APA's inclusive language guidelines because it contributes to stigma. Research has shown that stigma against NPD leads to low diagnosis rates and poor mental health outcomes.
In an everyday level: anxious and stubborn. The kind of people who constantly worry but also won't listen to reason when it's explained why they needn't worry.
I have bigots on both sides of my parent's family and they're some hateful shitstains on the human race. Lucky me I got one side of upper middle class pretending they're rich prosperity gospel christians and on the other side poor white trash born again evangelical christians.
Life has been so much better after cutting them all off.
Cutting toxic people out will change your life and theirs for the better. I highly recommend it to everyone, especially cluster b people. There's little hope for them without professional help because they're reluctant to admit fault. Ain't nobody got time for that shit. Surround yourself with cool people and fuck the abusive fucks.
I admire a lot about the French. As a non-French person, though, I'd never visit France. I've only met one Frenchman, he seemed alright. But, we weren't in France.

Narcissist with a victim complex. Nothing is their fault, and if it is, it affects them worse than you.

This. This is the winner. Those people deserve all the suffering they inflict on themselves. Unfortunately, they enjoy it.

Anxiety isn't cured with mere knowledge. It's one of those survival things that needs more basic response.
Pissmidget@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 68d
Exactly, my rational mind is very aware 99.9% of my anxiety and terror is nonsense.
The rest of me, however, goes "That's nice... Let's put a pin in it and react like it isn't anyways"

Ignorance and arrogance.
You can not know stuff. You cannot be an arsehole about it
(Why yes i do work in tech why do you ask?)
HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club · 13 pts · 68d
Maybe not the worst but something else: the need to be in control and the inability to make decisions.
So you get people who want to be in charge but can't actually do anything when they are in charge.

Bigoted and hateful. I see people in this thread vilifying mental disorders, but Nazis are way more dangerous.

Yeah but aren't those kinda synonymous? Maybe it's just me, but I can't see bigotry existing without hatred of some kind.

Hateless bigotry is stuff like casual racism, microaggressions, implicit bias.
stringere@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 68d
I concede that those actions may be committed without hatred by the perpetrator but I still believe the practices themselves are rooted in hatred.

This is true, but we're talking about personality traits, and these can be committed without a hateful personality
