What's interesting is that the anterior cingulate cortex development in ADHD, is similar to the problem in narcissists.
ADHD people seem to have this delayed development naturally, while a narcissist either never develops or atrophies the ACC.
We see atrophy in the ACC of rich people, just sayin'.
I think this is the reasons that narcissists are attracted to ADHD, not because they see us as intentional perfect victims, but because they think we're "like them'. They think we'll make fun partners.
Most narcs aren't intentional, at all, but accidentally ironically evil because that's what willful ignorance does, being so insecure you refuse to learn makes it possible to be a monster.
The difference for ADHD people is that we can and usually do grow our ACC, because we never meant for our executive function to be everyone else's problem, the narc who makes excuses for it, will never stop doing it.
The ACC can't form without taking responsibility, so you know it ain't gonna happen. Ironically, the narcs are really just harming themselves. They're supposed to self destruct, it's an evolutionary design to rid the collective species of a threat.
Your own brain will kill you for being uncooperative with your fellow human.
Kind of fascinating our brains were never designed to be that selfish.
Frankly, the ACC thing is proof to me of why capitalism will never work and we'll always end up back at fascism too, by the way.
Are you a narcissist? That description of "fun" or "playmates" is very personal and very recognizable in a narcissist—the description of that thrill of playing with someone. Hahaha. Yeah, it does seem narcissistic to me.
Do you often go around doing it? - Because people can wonder if you're projecting. It can look like hypocrisy. Lack of self awareness is a sign of something too.
People can learn something from how critical thinking is used to easily spot this problem. That's a 2000 year old error in reasoning you just used.
I have much experience with narcissists types sadly, starting with my mother, which then taught me the belief system that ever made me think narcissists would make good partners.
I also live in an area of inordinately privileged people, which means a higher incidents of narcissism would occur statistically. I am aware that their life is all about privilege and fun. Not responsibility. Is that not common information anyone can search? Or that it was obvious.
This is connected to what narcissism is, which is internalized oppression that comes from privilege. If you understand that privilege is supremacy, then you know that their demand for fun is a cultural idea that comes from politics and history.
Then it means anyone who understands narcissism and can tell you about it must be a suspect to you.
Hahaha, you're taking it very personally. Don't you see I'm a clown? Don't you see it's a joke and I'm inviting you to a game? Well, sorry for the joke. Isn't that what they always do? And how are you sure you're not one? We've been programmed by a society full of dialectical narratives, how can I be sure I'm not one? I really feel I have the potential to be one, and worse. I think we've all had our fair share of experience with sociopaths and psychopaths, narcissists and intellectuals. Just watching the news and celebrities, we can see there's something very wrong with the world. Don't be so effusive, I'm not interested in attacking you, you're not important enough to me. Sorry, that would be an attack on a narcissist if you were one. Anyway, I answered you, I'm paying attention now. Maybe my 2000 years of programmed nonsense, which you don't really have because of your high intellect, using words like "ab hominem," means you couldn't be manipulated by anyone, especially not by the despicable "capitalists." The world is between capitalists and good, wise men who can't be controlled by any 2000-year-old narrative, maybe 168 years old, or 177 years old, perhaps? They're newer and therefore wiser, right? By the way, my enemies operate more in the realm of ideas, so I'm very incisive, but it's not you I'm fighting, but those behind that way of thinking. Besides, I've been crazy since I was little; the socialist rhetoric at the Catholic school I attended and a fever after reading Nietzsche didn't leave me very healthy. Don't take offense; I'm just a fool, nobody important.
You can't read people's minds. That's a limitation of perception, no one can. Another erranous belief that is a giveaway if you're not self aware of it.
But here you are pretending you can know if people take things seriously. It's good content for people to see what happens in manipulation. Irrational behavior like ad hominems are how anyone can spot the technical reasons it's manipulation. You may not want to learn it, but others may find it useful to catching narcissism.
What you're doing isn't a new tactic, it's the same one people came here to learn about. Why wouldn't I take this opportunity?
Why do you feel entitled to use ad hominems, then call attacks on people's identities jokes? Isn't that also the plausible deniability a narcissist would use to deny their behavior was a sign of their own problem? "It's just a prank, bro!"
How did intellectuals make your list of problematic citizens? What diagnostic criteria puts them there for you?
Anti intellectualism has a distain for academics and anyone in the field, so are academics open season for identity attacks for you because they're dehumanized?
If people know their psychology, that would be another sign.
You're not interested in attacking people? But you do. Okay. You saying that doesn't really fool people if you have trouble with controlling yourself.
2000 year old linguistics would be called non-sense by someone who feels entitled to make up their own ideology. We can spot what's wrong with the world, people using their brain in a way it was never designed to work, so they get sick with narcissism, anxiety, depression and other issues related to ideology. Maybe you have no empathy for them, but I do, well enough to understand they're victims of ideology as well. We don't improve the situation in society if we don't understand the cause.
That looks like privilege to make up beliefs and not care about what's measurable fact in reality. Sounds like a recipe for delusion. Are intellectuals who discipline themselves to believing in facts the ego problem? Or is it the people who make up whatever they can dream up?
Belief in free will makes people use correspondence bias to be cruel to others. It's what a narcissist uses to dehumanize their victims.
Normal folk wouldn't think they can determine the world like they're god or that physics will change for them or that they can read minds.
Gotta stick to some rules and logic works pretty good for decision making, better than that individualism as an ideology, which causes the egocentric biases you can spot in a person struggle with narcissism and internalized oppression.
Thanks for giving me the prompts.
But you could be less harmful if you would know the limits of what the brain can do, including your own.
I enjoy your articles and admire your ability to get away from this evil person and then analyze it like you have. I had several bad therapists who caused great harm, but nothing like this shit. You have my best wishes for continued healing.

Literally capitalism is built on externalization.

Okay, odd ad hominem there.

Is everyone out to get you?

you are welcome 😘, Christ love you 🤣🤣🤣. Sorry for the laughter, but I'm in character.
Thank you for writing this and sharing it.
Wow🤯
And I freaking hate it. It’s been painful, still is sometimes.
I enjoy your articles and admire your ability to get away from this evil person and then analyze it like you have. I had several bad therapists who caused great harm, but nothing like this shit. You have my best wishes for continued healing.
Thanks for this, Cody 🙏
