Argue with this person who disagrees with you.
you clearly have way too much time on your hands which you spend trying to get strangers on the internet to fight. not everyone is as compulsively aggressive on the internet as you seem to be. since you're so concerned with being fair and politically correct, why dont you ask for a job at your local foodbank? im sure they would appreciate a hand, and you would have to waste far less time online.
I don't try to make people fight. I want them all to agree with me and not be bigots. Do you think I like being harassed? No, of course not. Your worldview where people like being yelled at is very strange.
you quite literally told me to "argue with this person who disagrees with [me]". if that is not instigating a fight for your own gain, i dont know what is.
also, very much ironically, wanting everyone to agree with you without the capability to admit you are wrong is, in its own, very narcisitic. which is insanely funny to me.
You picked a fight with the moderate who believes the word is used by ignorants who are unaware of the history, instead of the person whose views are actually opposite your own who thinks it's only a pathology. It seems to me that both of you want to bully the narcissist out of hate more than a political disagreement, since you have no quarrel with the person who more strongly disagrees with you. Neither of you cares about the content of the arguments you're making, you just want any excuse to continue using slurs, even if two of the excuses you agree with are mutually exclusive opposites.
You said you think it's funny that I'm disabled, after all.
this just goes to show that arguing with people on the internet is a waste of time. youre clearly twisting my words into things i have never said, but which you really really want me to have said.
in any case, to illustrate my point once and for all:
Narcissism can be considered both a personality trait and a personality disorder. The trait of narcissism exists on a spectrum, and it is not uncommon for individuals to exhibit some narcissistic characteristics without meeting the criteria for a full-blown personality disorder. Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is a clinical diagnosis in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). It involves a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, a need for admiration, and a lack of empathy, beginning in early adulthood and present in various contexts. Individuals with NPD often have difficulties maintaining relationships and may exhibit arrogant, entitled behavior. On the other hand, narcissistic traits can be present in individuals without meeting the criteria for NPD. Some degree of self-centeredness, a desire for validation, and a focus on one's own needs and desires are common aspects of human behavior. It's important to note that having some narcissistic traits doesn't necessarily indicate a personality disorder. Personality traits, including narcissistic traits, exist on a continuum, and it's the severity and impact on one's life that determine whether it rises to the level of a disorder.Calling someone narcisistic does not automatically equate to a slur or even an insult. Narcisistic traits can be examined from outside and afar, and you do not need to be a therapist to see these behavioural patterns. Looping back to the original comment that started all this - Empress shows narcisistic patterns everywhere in her communication. Calling her narcisistic because she acts narcisistic is an observation, not an insult, not a slur. Just like I can call someone blonde because I have seen their blonde hair. It matters not that narcisism can occur inside of a personality disorder. If I call someone "retarded" because they have NPD, that's another story. This is not the case here.
Since I already know you could keep arguing back and forth with everyone involved in this steaming mess of a comment tree, I'll be the bigger person and call it quits. Save yourself the response, we're too far down the tree for anyone to read it anyways. Any words written are a waste of time. If you need more attention, fight with people further up. I am not worth your time.
I like how laughing at my disability, being called out, trying to justify it, and then ignoring me makes you the bigger person.
I HAVE NPD.
I know you are not intending to be ableist when you call Empress the N word, but you are insulting a disabled person for their disability when you do it to me. And you think that makes you better than me.
no need to tell me you have NPD. it is very clearly visible in how you act.
Then you intentionally laughed at me for having a mental disorder?
You deserve no sympathy at all. Your pathology absolutely terrorizes everyone around you and you make everyone around you suffer.
This tantrum you’re throwing over “slurs” is exactly what people with NPD do. Make everything about yourself because you truly believe you are the main character of the universe. You can’t possibly conceive
Real facts to you are “slurs” because it’s socially advantageous to you. You don’t suffer. You live off of hurting other people as you don’t see them as equal to you.
Do you think I exist to hurt everyone around me because I have a mental disorder?
