I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I try to imagine how all of this even happened. Like all these anonymous narcissists around the world joined forces through the internet and created this alternate reality together where men are women and women are men and you can get anyone to sleep with you by calling them a transphobe, and the whole world is just going along with it. The whole ideology IS narcissistic because it was hand-crafted by narcissists. It's just mind-boggling to me because it seems like the sort of thing where anyone with a brain would just stand up and say "Now, wait a minute here... This is all crazy!" but nobody is doing it. (WE are, but nobody is listening to us. In fact, Reddit, that enabler scum, silenced us!)

And it reminds me so much of IRL families with an NPD disordered person. Everyone just sits by silently and lets the narcissist destroy everything because everyone is too scared to do anything. And the children/adults who try to escape or fight back are villainized by everyone. It's so horrifying to experience this same dynamic on such a large scale.

There is actually peer-reviewed research on this.

"Adolescents tend to associate with friends who have similar levels of psychopathy and friends engage in antisocial behavior (including substance abuse) together [39]. Psychopathy is associated with more reciprocated relationships in male adolescents, and does not affect levels of perceived support in relationships."

Psychopathic individuals are friends with other individuals who also have higher-than-average levels of psychopathic traits.

Completely agree.

"Now, wait a minute here... This is all crazy!"

I think more people would agree if they knew, but currently, LGB are being used as a scapegoat by TQ and people who are straight don't have the energy or desire, largely, to figure out who is right. They are lucky in that regard.

Yeah. Describe my life for me, hahaha. You are correct. I take it you also have some experience with this. :)

Unfortunately. That's why it's so easy to recognize!

Thanks for that link, I love when ideas I pull out of my butt end up having some scientific merit!

As someone who's parents are both NPD this resonates too much....

What I always say on this is that the trans movement is founded on a lot of abusive tactics - breaking boundaries, bullying, gaslighting, manipulation etc. - so as a movement it is naturally going to attract abusers who feel at home enacting all of these things. I don't think its a conspiracy exactly, but it's certainly a natural and logical consequence of how the movement is set up.
