The US is ranked 132 out of 163 for safety worldwide. I'd say that actually makes the US one of the least safe countries on earth.
Is it safer than living in a Roman frontier town during the Hun invasion? Probably... but the point is, clearly having the most militarized police and highest prison population doesn't make things safer.
Hit me with your favorite report(s)... I'm open to learning more about it. Except for supporting Trump, I think most of what I've heard her say sounds correct, reasonable, and for the greater good. If you have examples to the contrary, I'd be interested in that too. If there really is more than corporate media or "intelligence sources" that show she's legitimately not trying to act for the good of everyone, I really would like to know.
Of course if she is saying correct things that happen to match with what Russia is saying, I think we'll have to take a look at what Russia is saying.
Edit: Actually, they put it right in the article for us.
"These unfounded attacks are from the same geniuses who have blood on their hands from decades of faulty 'intelligence,' including the non-existent weapons of mass destruction," said spokesperson Alexa Henning, referring to a purported justification for the start of the Iraq War that turned out to be wrong.
"These intel officials continue to use classification as a partisan weapon to smear and imply things about their political enemy without putting the facts out," Henning continued."
Well... I'm not buying the bullshit from the establishment media, that's for sure. She's said she's working to do whatever it takes for peace. Any evidence to the contrary?
After watching several of his videos, and most of the narcissism ones, I'd say he's great. I'd certainly recommend his channel to anyone looking for an easy to understand intro to these things. Thanks again for the suggestion
Personally I'm on the fence about Gabbard in this role. Unlike most of Trump's picks, I don't think Tulsi is just in it to enrich herself. There's a lot of establishment bullshit about her being a Russian shill or whatever, but the real reason they hate her is because she was honest about how horrible Clinton is... That's it. They don't like Party members stepping out of line. Of course she did endorse Trump which isn't great, but I'm hoping it was a gambit to get into this role so she can start moving us towards peace instead of never ending wars (okay, that's the other reason the establishment hates her).
Never heard of it I'm afraid. After a quick skim it seems like he calls out religion for it's bullshit in a few videos, so I like that. But, I'll have to actually watch some videos to see what he's about. Thanks for pointing me towards it.
Yes Bernie... We all know the problems (thanks to you, seriously), but now we need a PLAN... Give us the strategy. Tell us where and when and how you know? Let's strategically start replacing establishment Dems with progressive. Let's strategically start ballot initiatives. Let's strategically start winning local elections with anti establishment candidates. Let's have a plan!
You asked why people reject people with NPD... I tried to explain it. Your response was even more like what you'd expect from someone with NPD than your post was btw. You could have been curious, I am after all, just an internet stranger; who gives a shit what I think? But you went hard on the defensiveness.
You aren't born with NPD. It's a defense mechanism against trauma you went through when you were younger. So I am really truly very sorry you went through whatever you went through.
I'm glad you have a therapist, and I hope they are a good fit for you to really feel comfortable opening up about your childhood, and how that might have affected you.
Being able to recognize that SOMETHING is wrong is not the same as truly comprehending WHAT is wrong. I worded my original statement poorly, sorry about that. But that hurt, when you think that something is wrong with you, is the reason most people with NPD can't face it, not even to fix it. To fix it a person needs to be able to not just think about it, but really dig into it. A full embrace of and deep dive into that thing you say hurts just to think about. Most people can't bring themselves to even think about it, which is why they get so defensive if you get anywhere near it, on purpose or not. Good on you for facing it.
And I know there's no cure, but with a lot of work there are work arounds you can train into your brain. I really do hope we find a cure someday. For all personality disorders. They are truly horrible afflictions.
One of the hardest parts is that it's a non-stop 24/7 battle you didn't sign up for and never ends and ALWAYS feels completely unfair (this is why people with NPD NEED professional help with it). NPD might not define you, but in order to beat it you will have to be defined by your fight against it... You'll need to be "spacefox3 the narcissist who's not going to let it win today" everyday. And we both know you can do it.
