Higher wisdom is better than higher truth.

What a heartless publicity stunt? Trump didn't care about millions of who died by Covid-19. He will do anything to do damage control. Narcissists love to be praised and grasp any opportunity that makes them look like the bigger person. Trump is encouraging this guy because the guy is simping him hard. Every narcissist's wet dream having a terminally ill man assuring him that he is the best guy in the universe, this is better than a letter of recommendation from a court. Stop falling for such nonsense. Trump is a heartless egotic egomaniacal narcissist. Even their good side is a show fake. Trump is faker than the fake news he talks about. Booooo!!!

We need a hippy Leo Gura party lol. That's it. That's what we always needed. No money, only 5-Leo DMT. Kidding.

Biden is not a socialist and that's exactly what's good about him.

Yes. Although I realized in 2018 that he was a narcissist, I have no memory of what I did after that. I think I just downplayed my observation, probably even thought I was being silly in judging him or I simply let it go as I usually do with red flags in a relationship out of a deep merciful love for the person. I so so wish I had acted upon my instincts and observations and not let go so easily. I would have saved myself a ton of wasted time and emotional labor. I feel awful how I constantly kept forgiving and ignoring all the red flags. Love is blind. And so I ignored a lot. When I fall in love, I trust way too much than necessary. Maybe I just couldn't believe that he could do wrong things to me. That caused me to be in denial about his narcissistic behavior. Today I'm a better smarter person.. I know better to never ignore again.

Trump. Most people fall asleep after a while when Sanders speaks.

I understand your point. But it's not that simple. Because this is not like handing someone a gun. It's not that direct. Almost any word can be propaganda depending on perspective. Someone sees a piece of information as radicalization or hatred, whereas another person can see it as truth or knowledge. But a gun is a gun and everyone knows that it's a weapon. It's very difficult to put words in the context of a weapon. Of course words can be weaponized. Let's take the example of Trump. If Trump says anything against Mexicans, Mexicans might say that he is using his words as a weapon. But Trumpers might say that he is showing a truth. That's why the meaning of words is generally ambiguous and is subject to the perception of the interpreter So this problem is too complex and difficult to prove in one of another way.

Zuckerberg is simply running a technology. He didn't invent social media. People will use social media whether Zuckerberg exists or not. It's how people handle social media. It's the same as with anything else, as long as you use responsibly it's fine. You could make the same case for psychedelics. If people used psychedelics irresponsibly, they would suffer Same way. Zuckerberg like a corporate marketer is simply capitalizing on what people like. If someone sells Harry Potter t shirts because there is a huge demand for Harry Potter t shirts, you can't blame the person trying to profit from selling them

@Keyhole I'm glad. I like that woman. She seems very genuine, straightforward and pleasant in her explanations, a soft voice and she always hits the nail right on the head. I am so happy for you that you're out of that person's mess for good. Too often we come across narcissists in our lives and they take advantage. Happened to me too many times until I started to see a pattern in how I was attracting these narcissists with my empathetic behavior. I started to grow tired of being nice to people because I always had to go through a bad experience of someone taking advantage of me. And narcissists have a keen eye for empaths. They can smell their prey. Before 2018, I didn't even know that something like Narcissistic personality disorder was even a term. It's only when I accidentally stumbled upon an online psychology article that I happened to read the signs of a narcissist and I was in pure shock because they all matched my ex boyfriend Joseph to the T. That's when I started realizing that I was suffering from narcissistic abuse from a boyfriend. I have to say that it's a hell of a ride dealing with narcissist. They suck you dry like energy vampires, push your buttons to the max, gaslight you when you protest or fight back, project on you things they are the ones actually doing, make you feel bad for yourself, question your sanity and it's a emotional mental roller-coaster ride that takes you to the depth of despair and vulnerability. I began gaining weight in the relationship, I turned to food for comfort in order to cope, I began suffering health problems because he would attack me relentlessly Whenever I tried to leave, he would make me feel guilty or give me death threats. They create a vicious cycle in which you get trapped. I had turned into a battered woman at the end of the relationship. Finally I had the courage to break up with him in my 8th attempt of trying to break up that succeeded.. So a whole chapter in my life was over but it had impacted me tremendously psychologically But now I'm trying to Armour myself with adequate information on narcissists and their behaviors so that I might not ever again fall for narcissists in the future. Im looking for a wide range of resources to study narcissistic people and their behaviors and how to deal with them and keep them out for good. So far so good. I'm glad I found this woman's channel. Hopefully my journal will illumine other women who will read it and learn and not fall in such abusive relationships. That's my goal.

Any country can become a threat when your country is experiencing internal chaos Don't be so paranoid about another country attacking your country. That's usually a rare possibility. The most common possibility is the country rotting from inside because of internal issues and conflict Right now US is losing big time on economy thanks to Trump and what he did. It's to rebuild America from scratch create jobs, and solve the pandemic. And solve race issues. And fix Healthcare and Social security.. Millions of people are getting laid off in the US and times are difficult. Lots of poverty and homelessness on the way. In a way I think Trump was a blessing He was like a jolt, a wake up call of what can go wrong with the system. The dangers of the American system are out in the open now. It's time to fix things before it's too late.

@egoeimai I just found an extremely helpful video on how to deal with toxic people. It explains how to deal with narcissistic personalities like your cousin and my ex boyfriend who go around bragging and hurting people to feel better. She lays down a lot of wonderful points. Summary of her points ? They know exactly what to say to prey on your emotions ? You might feel emotionally charged or upset while dealing with them but this is nothing but stooping down to their level. There is no point in telling them that they are wrong because they won't listen. You just shouldn't take on their negative energy on you. Instantly rub them away. ? When you feel hurt, they feel victorious because they feel a sense of power in knowing that they hurt you. ? You need to focus on yourself and understand whatever that toxic person is saying is a lie and nothing to do with it. It shows more who they are and not you.. ? Even if it hurts you, try not to take what they say personally because it will keep hurting you more if you repeat it in your mind. ?They have negative energy inside of them that they unload on others.. ?IT'S easy to get emotional. But don't do that. Walk away from such people. ? If you have an interaction with such a person, just hang up on them and tell them that you gotta go, they can say that you can't handle things but what they say does not matter. Get away from them instantly. ? Such people are button pushers. ? You just have to tell them that you are not going to be around someone who speaks to you in that way. ? When someone who is a button pusher they know exactly what to say that will make you feel vulnerable or sad or upset. They know where your wounds are. ?You need to know your wounds and triggers. Because that way you will able to filter such people much quicker because you are aware what hurts you and if they say exactly that then you can immediately walk away. ?You have to be able to love yourself through your wounds. ?Instead of reacting, respond by being straightforward and laying down your boundaries. ?Have an inner dialogue with yourself. ?This is not just emotional mastery. But learning to Armour yourself against abusive behavior and disengage with someone who is hurting you. ?You have to know and be aware of your audience that is the people that you interact with. ?If you feel anger, mask that anger and not let them know that you're angry. Don't give them their victories. Be strict and walk away and hold yourself high. ?Don't let them get a rise out of you. ?You can keep a boundary like "hey, when you speak to me this way, I leave. I'm not dealing with this " ? You have to treat these people like children because these people are being a child. ?Learning to love yourself while someone is hurting you rather than getting reactive and emotional. ?You're basically telling that person that they can say whatever they want but you're not tolerating this kind of behavior. ?Either set a boundary and tell them to follow or just leave and drop them from your life. Hope this helps.

Hey Arc, please don't move out, please. This is not the right time or occasion to take such a decision. Your old man daddy is just having a temper tantrum and that's fine, it happens, you will become more distant from him if you move out. He might apologize some day. Relationships are hard to win these days and much easier to lose. Plus you'll have all these burdens racked up on your shoulder once you move out. You'll become a total wage slave, how is that fair for you?? If you move out you will keep figuring out your financial options day in and day out, it will consume you. Right now America is not in a very financially stable state. Jobs are hard to come by. You'll get stuck in this mess. So please don't leave. Your father will get alright after a day or two, he will forget it. You can bring your own barbecue grill. It hardly costs $400 and there are many cheaper ones. Maybe gift him one with your savings then he won't be that pissed off. I think your Dad is a bit of a neat clean germophobe type of freak. Most oldie parents are like that. But deep down he loves you. Just that he couldn't bear the sight of an unclean grill. That's no big deal. That's no reason to leave home. I'd have told you to move out if he was continuously abusive. But that's not the case here.. Plus the economy is in the dumpster. If you get a place, the landlord will harass you 100%. That's exactly what happened to my ex boyfriend Joseph. He was being harassed in subtle ways in every place he rented.. Outside people can never be better than blood relatives. They will be much cruel to you and you will have a threat of eviction The only place where you'd feel safe is an extremely high end place where the rent is sky high like 1000s of dollars. They will treat you like a king because you're filling their pockets. Rest everywhere the whole renting thing is a huge mess for low income individuals. It will be pure torture. I'm saying this from experience living in the US. If you are on a low budget, living on rent is a nightmare. So don't leave. You'll be living in some hoods or other trailer type areas and those are no good people, trust me, you will be meeting the most horrible people in low income housing in the US. This is what my ex boyfriend Joseph struggled with because his mom had kicked him out because of his arrogance. And I spent an entire year searching different places for him and trying to house him and I exhausted myself and every experience was a bad experience for him and eventually he became homeless and I lost myself.. You don't want to go through something like that. Your home is the safest place no matter what. In Asian countries like mine, parents don't even give basic freedoms to their kids so the kids have to move out. But your case is not like that. You have an old factory and the office there. It seems like you truly like that place. Then you shouldn't leave. That place is secure and good for you. Don't ruin your setup for your daddy. Wait for him to calm down. Also don't ever touch any of his stuff ever because he seems to be too freaky about it. You get your own stuff with your money and use it and don't touch any of his stuff. Just relax ok. I know you are overwhelmed and that's why you are thinking about moving out.. But that's a bad decision and you might regret. Let some weeks go by. There is this Corona shit going on. You're much safer home during such times.. Goodluck and take care and don't leave. Let the old man sort himself out.

How to deal with narcissists part 1

Don't be someone's emotional slave..

Good idea.

Maybe I don't know. I'm too tired. I want some positivity in life. Don't want to see a negative world anymore. Things are already bad enough

Frankly I'm so fed up with the conspiracy bullshit, it has no validity, does not come with evidence and only creates fear mongering, negativity, insecurity and looks like a big lie being forced down people's throats. What happens when you realize that most conspiracy theories are plain false and ramblings of delusional minds? How does that work? Just another rabbit hole and go down the rabbit hole only to turn up empty. What an unnecessary waste of time and needless consumption of energy and potential. Maybe someone with the luxury of a lot of money and time on their hands and no real life purpose might be engaging in them. Who has the time to do endless speculation of mundane things in life and drudge up some weird theory? Humanity can do so much better.

Conspiracy theories are bad enough without those words.

Awesome

This is such a beauty

Breaking through the dark, there's a new dawn coming. Sometimes evil is necessary for good to become better. It's acts like a thrusting force driving good to strive for the best and for better things to happen. It's a crystallization process where all the shadows are killed, the system is rebooted, the healing is brought, and a more matured Beast rises like a Phoenix.

I agree. There's absolutely no reason to collaborate with Republicans. But I'm not sure if that's required for congress to pass bills.
