I like this one more than usual, and I've been a sub for years. Making political/social topics funny has never been a problem with me. Very good.

2024-05-05 23:13:04 +0000 UTCSJ says if he ever did anything to Gonzo, he’s sorry. That’s how a narcissist “apologizes”. Very blanketed apologies. If Gonzo brought up something specific he did, he’d never acknowledge that he was wrong, nor apologize.

2024-05-05 19:11:20 +0000 UTCHey Karl, I have some insight into one specific detail from this episode that I think you would find interesting. When Jon uses the example of Elisa being hit and asking if it was her fault, she is referring to Elisa’s story about being physically abused as a child. This is important as it relates to how a narcissist is created. As humans, narcissism is a normal developmental trait until the age of about 6, and then we see some divergence in the quality and intensity in behaviors and psychology. Indeed, it is easy to understand the existence of a narcissist as merely a “freezing” of emotional development at the age of 4-6. Normally due to intense and frequent neglect or abuse accompanied by enmeshing by a mother or mother figure. The result is an adherence to a coping mechanism that is pre-socializing and pre-complex communication. It requires very little retention of information and is mainly internal. When giving an example of a child being hit and asking if it their fault, you have gotten a glimpse into the exact perspective the narcissist takes on all issues. That whatever is happening to them is happening to a 6 year old version of them, all of their flaws are forgiven/all of their successes are celebrated/they are simultaneously innocent in all things and spectacular in all endeavors. Unfortunately, to treat npd requires substantial psychoanalysis with a figure the narcissist sees as a parent figure, basically re-parenting the adolescent development into adulthood through analysis. Very hard, very rare to see done successfully.

2024-05-05 15:59:44 +0000 UTCFantastic show.loved the Biden and hs segments. I have no horse in the race as I’m in uk . But please run DC2 how you vinny and the other creators see fit. We are all working for money but be mindful of shulis cashcrab of live streaming. Multiple creators will no doubt do sessions . But run in the WATP SPIRIT, Not the short term mindset of cashcrab from TSN.
