Babe, remember:
The victim of narcissistic abuse is often the one who’s visibly breaking down. They’re the one crying, reacting, and looking “crazy” because they’ve been pushed to their emotional limit.
Meanwhile, the abuser stays calm and composed, telling everyone, “See? Look how crazy they are.”
It’s strange how, in this generation, when victims finally speak about how they were hurt, they’re often labeled as “toxic” or “dramatic”. Weren’t we the same people encouraging them to find their voice?
The irony is that when they stay quiet, they’re told to speak up. But when they finally do, they’re criticized for being inappropriate, pretentious, or simply told they should have kept it to themselves.
@MorrowindGOTY graphic heads yearn to be permanently plugged into the futuristic vr life simulator machine while getting fed through tubes as they for the first time ever get to experience the touch of a woman in the computer game strapped to their heads
@JoshEakle Because it's an op meant to continue the established narratives to condition more & more people into their disillusioned, negative tear-down-ideology
Narcissists have a radar for exceptionally happy, genuine, gifted, and honest people.
Their mission. Find them. Study them. And systematically tear them down.
Narcissists don’t just envy you — they become obsessed with you.
And that obsession is a problem for them, because it’s visible. People can sense when someone’s fixation on another person crosses a line. So the narcissist has to reframe it.
They can’t say “I resent this person because they have something I want.”
So instead they say: “This person is dangerous. You should be afraid of them.”
They take their own hatred — rooted entirely in envy — and repackage it as a warning. Suddenly their obsessive targeting looks like concern. Their aggression looks like self-defense. Their smear campaign looks like people just… finding out the truth.
What they’re really doing is recruiting. They need other people to fear their target because their own feelings of resentment and hatred need external validation. If they can make you afraid of the person they envy, then their obsession feels justified. Their attack feels righteous.
The target didn’t do anything. They just existed in a way the narcissist couldn’t tolerate.
@carlbildt I genuinely wonder how much of what we believed to be Russian disinformation campaigns were in fact American/Republican. Maybe they've all worked together this entire time.
@JulieBorowski That was my issue with them as well. Endless utopianism & nirvana fallacies that they could only recognize in others but never in themselves
