Collective Narcissism

And the fucked up part about it is in the beginning I said it was "Collective Narcissism." Didn't I? Yes. Yes I did. I would talk about it all of the time. You're 5 years behind and I'm still not getting credit.
Hym "Isn't that wild that I can actually say that 'A lot of our problem is a form of Collective Narcissism.' Look at that!"

Iam "That was me..."

Hym "Great job me!"

Dr. Jeepjorp "You're one of the narcissists."

Iam "Aw, hey! It's Dr Jeep..."

Hym "So are you shit-ass! 'They are who we thought they were!'~That one guy. That is hilarious! And what do I get? You guys are handling this all wrong my guy. Not to piss in your bed or anything. I don't think I could live your life better than you. It's the other way around. You can't blame me for watching the game and seeing a fumbles. I should call you guy team fumbles. A man ahead of his time. The ultimate innate psychoanalysts prowess. I just wish I could see the looks on your faces when you realize I'm right about some of this shit. I can't even image."

Lexical Narcissism

A compulsive need to flaunt obscure vocabulary, academic jargon, or convoluted phrasing to appear intellectually superior, often at the expense of clarity, relevance, or truth. Symptoms include correcting others mid-argument over minor semantics, mistaking verbosity for depth, and prioritizing pedantry over persuasion. Typically found in debates where ego outweighs logic and the dictionary becomes a weapon of distraction.

Lexical narcissism is the arrogant belief that you're the only one who understands how words work, the only one educated enough to define philosophy, science, or language itself. It’s not intelligence—it’s intellectual gatekeeping. They don’t argue to clarify. They argue to assert dominance through semantics, hoping you’ll concede out of exhaustion, not reason. It's elitism masquerading as literacy.
You: “Once considered obscure academic theory, Marxism has completely infected academia and the curriculum.”
Them: “Define Marxism.”
You: “Sure, I'll entertain your silly little lexical narcissism game: Economic collectivism based on class conflict—are you seriously asking me this?”
Them: “That’s not true Marxism.”

Narcissism

To be only capable of loving yourself at a exaggerating level.

Narcissism ruins lives and is one of the main reasons this world has problems.

People who are a narcissist think very highly of themselves with no reason or proof at all.

They are almost always arrogant, egotistical, manipulative, have little to no empathy and have a desire to control the people closest to them.

When feeling personally attacked they will react very recklessly or very tactical on the current situation, no matter who or what will suffer the consequences.

Most relationships (especially the people closest to them like: partner, parent, child) will become very toxic over time.

When that happens the narcissist will always blame them for their "mistakes" en try to make them believe they are the bad person by almost any means neccesary like telling carefully constructed lies with fake proof or by manipulating the third party.

This can cause emotional issues to the victims that can follow up with other mental problems like depression or even narcissism itself.

The worst thing is that they are AWARE of their behaviour.

The best thing to do is to leave them. When that is not possible go talk with the people you trust and/or seek help and information about them.

When engaged in a discussion with one, try to trap the creature with proven truth, especially in front of honest people or let it "bump it's head" in the near future.

Never. Let. These. People. Get. To. You.
