He is really unable to accurately represent any perspective other than his own, the poster boy for malignant narcissism.

Americans are not a monolith, but instead all over the place with regard to a cultural practice like care for the elderly. If you had to summarize it might be fair to say that there is more of a sense of freedom from obligation to care for elders than in some other places, which is also driven by the baby boomer generation being so entitled and the current younger generations encountering ever worsening economic prospects which the boomers are stereotypically blind and unsympathetic towards. Also, there is a greater recognition of abuse and sometimes that leads to the recognition that ones elders have been abusive and therefore can go fuck themselves.
George Will is a conservative commentator whose name is familiar to us olds. He used to write in Newsweek when it was a prominent magazine back in the day and was on TV. I imagine he is a never-trumper so what is surprising here is not that he would refuse to vote but that he will vote for Harris. That can only mean that the old guard conservatives recognize trump as an existential threat to the country which he is.
Yeah, me either. I made a mistake. I meant “far right”. I’ll edit it to fix.
It’s the strangest thing when people who were targets of Nazi persecution become Nazis themselves (Loomer is Jewish). But then again, it also seems to be a feature of far right personality organization to behave this way. Like Roy Cohn (Trump’s long ago attorney/mentor) was gay but denied it including when he died from AIDS. Some kind of self-hatred and projection combined. As though ones sins could be pushed off onto something other which can be persecuted as a scapegoat, which as I think about it is a well known narcissistic family dynamic. In any event, it’s Weird!
I don’t really care, do you?
Others said it first, but Firecracker from The Boys.
When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled. Yes, brave Sir Donald turned about And gallantly, he chickened out. Bravely taking to his feet, He beat a very brave retreat, Bravest of the brave, Sir Donald.
I like to think about it in terms of trust. That’s a vulnerable position to sleep in but it doesn’t occur to her to position herself defensively because she has not been taken advantage of, but instead only loved. Good job!
Just a doge who wants tummy rubs!
It’s the same picture.
Not at the same time, but in alternation, sure. It’s all reactions to underlying shame and inadequacy beliefs/feelings which are there all the time I expect.
This tracks with my assessment of the two likely personalities of software engineers, either narcissistic or anxious with imposter syndrome.
The perfect is the enemy of the good…
He totally knows he’s lying. It’s just justified in his narcissistic mind as what you do to get your way. If he’s dementing, and I think he is, it’s on top of that life-long sense of entitlement to get his way via whatever means necessary.
There are so many things that one might want in a partner which are not changeable, that something like this, where it can be taught, shouldn’t be high on the list of reasons to reject. If you discuss the issue with someone you’re dating and they 💩💩 it, then you might want to reject, but not because of the knowledge they lack but rather because of their insensitivity to your anxiety.
An engineer should be at the helm. MBAs fuck tech companies up.
What is that from?
