Narcisism with psychopathic traits
I had to deal with a guy with both for the past 5 years
Maybe not the worst but something else: the need to be in control and the inability to make decisions.
So you get people who want to be in charge but can't actually do anything when they are in charge.
Middle management beckons
God Complex and Malignant Narcissism. As seen in Trump and Musk.
For me personally extroversion and socially anxious.
Arrogance and ignorance.
Narcissist with a victim complex. Nothing is their fault, and if it is, it affects them worse than you.
This. This is the winner. Those people deserve all the suffering they inflict on themselves. Unfortunately, they enjoy it.
what's funny is that narcissists only play the victim and never fully accept that they are the victim because they believe being the victim is beneath them.
they generally only play the victim when it achieves their end goal.
narcissists are the best prey to victimize because they can never admit that they are the victim when it doesn't fit their goal. not only do they suffer in silence, they spend an inordinate amount of time attempting to plan retribution which only makes them easier to manipulate. as long as you maintain the ability to stomp on their progress while achieving their goal of revenge, you can play with narcissists endlessly until they tear themselves apart.
Yes, this is true, I have NPD (caused by parental abuse as a small child), and it has made Me very easy to abuse. I was having flashbacks and thought spirals for years after I was abused by an intimate partner. In the end I lost My job because of it and became homeless.
And just like any other disorder, I'd ask that you use either person first or identity first language. Person first would be "person with NPD" and identity first would be "narcissistic person". Shortening the disorder name into a label is against the APA's inclusive language guidelines because it contributes to stigma. Research has shown that stigma against NPD leads to low diagnosis rates and poor mental health outcomes.
Charisma and sociopathy.

Over confidence and ignorance
Bigoted and hateful. I see people in this thread vilifying mental disorders, but Nazis are way more dangerous.
Yeah but aren't those kinda synonymous? Maybe it's just me, but I can't see bigotry existing without hatred of some kind.
Hateless bigotry is stuff like casual racism, microaggressions, implicit bias.
I concede that those actions may be committed without hatred by the perpetrator but I still believe the practices themselves are rooted in hatred.
This is true, but we're talking about personality traits, and these can be committed without a hateful personality
You find a whole lot of cluster b folks on the right
I have bigots on both sides of my parent's family and they're some hateful shitstains on the human race. Lucky me I got one side of upper middle class pretending they're rich prosperity gospel christians and on the other side poor white trash born again evangelical christians.
Life has been so much better after cutting them all off.
Cutting toxic people out will change your life and theirs for the better. I highly recommend it to everyone, especially cluster b people. There's little hope for them without professional help because they're reluctant to admit fault. Ain't nobody got time for that shit. Surround yourself with cool people and fuck the abusive fucks.
Drama-Free and Zero Tolerance.
Narcissistic Egotists.
They're literally fucking up the whole world.
How do you fuck a world in a literal sense?
Stick your dick in a gopher hole.
But then you're just fucking a gopher.

In an everyday level: anxious and stubborn. The kind of people who constantly worry but also won't listen to reason when it's explained why they needn't worry.
Anxiety isn't cured with mere knowledge. It's one of those survival things that needs more basic response.
Exactly, my rational mind is very aware 99.9% of my anxiety and terror is nonsense.
The rest of me, however, goes "That's nice... Let's put a pin in it and react like it isn't anyways"
Arrogance and incuriousity
🤣 This entire thread basically just describing Trump
It's crazy what a giant piece of shit this guy is
creepy and wet
Okay there, Old Gregg.
you want some baileys?
Are you flirting with me?
depends which one you prefer.
I prefer limes.
they're not very creepy, and only wet on the inside.
If you squeeze them they get creepy, and wet on the outside. O_o
*frantically bings "if they want to 'squeeze the creep out of your limes' does that mean the date is going well"*
An overblown ego & proud of being stupid.
Egotism, ignorance, and obsessive personality. Then your life is completely consumed in an uphill battle of proving yourself right.
So narcissistic personality disorder?
You just described my boss… poor me
Hate coworkers with ignorance and apathy.
