The thread is a bit of a dumpster fire…

I’ve been mulling over your actual question a bit. I could argue that some of the stigmatisation could just be that it’s really easy to dislike someone who’s self centred or selfish, that NPD can present similarly (gross assumptions on my part there, sorry) makes it easy to dislike someone with NPD.

Disliking someone makes it very easy to stigmatise any and all of their traits. It becomes a feedback loop.

Anyway, I hope you manage it well and hope you can surround yourself with supportive people.

Smells a bit like distraction, but being entirely ignorant of South Korean politics, no idea for what.

Probably because it’s not the usual Disney princess schlock.

The first megablock, neat.

If the event was near the equatorial near midday then there’s a very very (very) slim chance it was pointed directly at the sun.

“What is Newton’s first law of motion?”

“I want to be an astronaut!”

“No no, I meant how do you want to sell your labour to a billionaire?”

Ethernet.

I used to buy “the help” but now I have to rent them.

Extracting the most hours of labour from employees was always more important than producing the most value.

Alternatively the execs whom regularly baulk at paying employees more for the same work, unsurprisingly, also baulked paying employees the same for less work. Productivity isn’t considered in this equation (or that all work hours are not equal productivity wise).

This is actually because of GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). Capital expenditure can be amortised over the life time of the plant, while wages are not.

Should do, all url obfuscation is a phishing vector.

“A good slap will clear up that hysteria in your household appliance lickety split sir”

Am fat, would cry.

It had to be stigmatized before that to be applied to selfish people.

Good point. I suspect it was a plot point in Medical Drama #17 or Police Drama #12, thus was thoroughly misrepresented.

How do you cope with NPD?

Also, what kind of things can other people do to support someone with NPD?

It’s stigmatised because the term has entered common (mis)usage to describe people who are just selfish

In a rational world the headline would have been a stupid non sequitur.

In this world it’s a superb non sequitur.

Well that was an easy block decision

Start with an ad hominem. Right, I can probably dismiss any other arguments…

Half the public would cheer it on.

Well he’s only got two sticks and no carrots. At least he’s choosing a stick that pokes Americans in the eye (tariffs) rather than the other stick (CIA backed coups).
