The Age of Narcissism

- Jesse - Le Cafe Américain

Ooo, did we get our hands on the latest DSM?
Over the last three or four decades, I've never met a person who studied clinical psychology who wasn't trying to figure themselves out. However the study of mass psychology sheds light on the dark motivations that fueled all the horrible events of history.

I've noticed over the last decade that the Communitarians have resorted to labeling all those who refuse to play the Communitarian, "It takes a village", reindeer games as narcissists, anti-socials and possible threats to the enlightened class.

It has also been my experience that those who trot out psycho-babble are attempting to use shaming as a tool against their opponents. I contend that the psycho-babblers are the true narcissists.
It has also been my experience that the psycho-babblers are neck deep in the Communitarian movement. After all, Communitarianism is all about developing a fully integrated social environment where duty to the body politic is the highest calling for all the members of the society. All inhabitants of Starship Earth must be contained, controlled and compelled to accept their status as assets of the over-all body.
Over the last couple, three decades I have seen individualism maligned as some sort of mental illness.
The enlightened know what is best for all of us and individualism is the antithesis of full social integration.
Oh and don't forget, as you are an asset of the body politic, so too are all your possessions assets of the same crowd of odious thieves of individual liberty.

The mice voted to bell the cat.

And yes, I am well aware that by responding with a counter opinion I have walked into this psycho-babbler's trap.
When garbage is posted on the web, a counter argument must be presented. Most people* assume that anyone who posts an article must be an expert. The empirical evidence supports the contention that most so-called experts are just bull-shitting their way through and few if any will refute their nonsense.

I suppose this Anti-Communitarian's rebuttal will result in being taken off of Jesse's Christmas card list.

Might I suggest for everyone else, go rent a copy of Pink Floyd's video, "The Wall".

And remember when your health insurance gets cancelled, it is for your own good. If we are all gonna be in this together, then there is no room for individuals aka probable narcissists.
"You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile."

*"Most people" is based upon personal observation over 5+ decades and many re-locations.

Beginning of the headline :"Narcissism falls along the axis of what psychologists call personality disorders, one of a group that includes antisocial, dependent, histrionic, avoidant and borderline personalities. But by most measures, narcissism is one of the worst, if only because the narcissists themselves are so clueless." Jeffrey Kluger “Hate is the complement of fear and narcissists like being feared. It imbues them with an intoxicating sensation of omnipotence... The sadistic narcissist perceives himself as god... Read More
