No doubt about The Don being a full blown narcissistic egomaniac. Still, I believe that we all have narcissistic tendencies as part of our personality structure. Like with all personality traits, it’s kind of a spectrum. I was missing this aspect in your video. It came across a bit fingerpointy, without giving back the acknowledge that we all are narcs to some degree imho. I’m worried that without such acknowledgement of „the evil“ in oneself, we’re pushing stereotyping more and more forward, which will lead to more blaming, dividing and raging. Anyway, sry for the rambling. As always your video was quite entertaining and thought provoking. Also I really liked the editing on this one. So thanks man!

[@nvoo123]

there’s a difference between having narcissistic personality traits and having NPD tho. it seems like the video was example after example of why trump is a narcissist/has npd vs has narcissistic traits. he laid out the reasoning for why with the childhood trauma and quotes from his mother. people have narcissistic traits but like he said in the beginning of the video althought narcissism is thrown around a lot in conversations today only 1% of people of people actually have npd. this video is explaining why trump is in that 1% not just another person w narcissistic traits

[@joshuakuhn5741]

As the guy above already explained pretty well, it’s not about people being generally self-centered or egoistic sometimes. Narcissism is more like a deeper rooted mental disfunction (or trauma) than a character trait or mood. The video is not very blaming in my opinion, as Sisyphus explains pretty well the childhood upbringing that caused this behavior.

[@theoriginalrandomman]

I mean, he devotes a section of the video to handling the "universality" of narcissism as per the Melville quote. I'm not sure I totally get it myself, but it seems like the gist is that we all have an idealized self that we want to achieve, that we all want to earn (legitimate) praise. The difference between that and an actual narcissist is that the narcissist devotes themselves to maintaining the fiction that they've earned praise and status when they have not.

[@I_Ace]

Dude normal people have what we call "Healthy Narcissism" aka self love and respect. Its on a continuum, but NPD is that of a pathalogical sense. Its so extreme, pathological, and malevolent.

There is no clear case study of what BPD is because it is an ill-defined condition.

[@gray8885]

At about the 10 minute mark I realized that I was watching a video about narcissists and not that I was listening to a therapist give me an explanation of my life.

[@EmersetFarquharson]

Your audio is clipping, Sisyphus. Normally your audio is really good so I just wanted to note that. (You probably already know about this though.)

[@SBelawski]

rewatching to make sure the forced re upload getting fewer views doesn't screw your view statistics

[@girliboi]

i'd say letting a pandemic blaze out of control, refusing to simply say "stay home and chill for a few weeks" because you think it might.. . MIGHT.. . prop up the economy long enough to get you reelected definitely qualifies as half a million (at last tally) counts of negligent homicide if not outright murder..

[@Sara-gl8ue]

Um, why do people expect others to tell them what they should and shouldn't be doing? Why do people rely on the government so much? What ever happened to personal responsibility? People who want big governments are scared of being responsible for themselves. Besides, he did try to take steps to prevent it from coming here directly from China but they called him a xenophobe. We are about to go through some very dark times in regards to the economy. Inflation is already here and we're going to have to find a way to pay back all the trillions of dollars being printed from thin air. Suicide rates are increasing because people have lost jobs and their homes. Do you prefer people to die because of a virus (with a 98%+ recovery rate), or by suicide, hunger, and homelessness because of an economic crisis? An economic crisis would negatively effect 98%+ of people, while Covid-19 negatively affects just a few percent. The only advice I can give right now is to make sure you have all your ducks in a row for the dark times ahead. They're coming.

[@Sara-gl8ue]

One more thing. According to the CDC, 78% percent of people who were hospitalized or died from Covid-19 were overweight and obese. This means that Covid-19 is not nice to people who don't take care of their bodies, yet I still see long lines of people at the drive-thru of McDonald's. When will people start taking personal responsibility for their own health? The vast majority of Covid-19 deaths could have been prevented if people would have put a little more effort into leading a healthier lifestyle. But again, personal responsibility is a thing of the past. People need someone or something to blame in order to make themselves feel better about their own shortcomings...

[@naiveveg8447]

Jeez i sure would've loved to see an entire country stop working for a dangerous virus. That isn't how real life works lady.

[@Sara-gl8ue]

@Rotary Man Trump needs a lesson in how to care for his body too! Americans have such bad diets these days. And I'm not "fat shaming". I'm stating facts, which seem to be offensive to some. If I was fat and my doctor or a concerned family member told me I needed to lose weight, I would NOT assume they were shaming me. People need to get a grip on reality.

at 6:45 into the video is a image of fred trump. what is up with the side of jaw near his ear? it is F uped!

[@ascendedalchemist2551]

I started off with low self esteem and Interestingly I picked up some narcissistic personality traits during rough times as a defense mechanism and once the rough times were over I discarded most of these traits. I'd say that I came out with healthy amounts of self esteem. But still kinda low.

[@toddhale8266]

One of your most well constructed videos, excellent job

[@hunp812]

One of your best videos yet, you've trumped yourself!

[@MisterTutor2010]

If you call a narcissist the Best Narcissist, would he or she be insulted or flattered?

[@peytongorshavitzki6933]

Flattered on the inside and outwardly upset; I think that at least.

[@peerlessthegamer]

I love this video. I shared direct tweets of it to Ivanka, Don Jr, Eric, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Kevin McCarthy and the GOP

[@miapdx503]

Awesome!

[@ncedwards1234]

I'd be a better narcissist if I tried, and it would be an easy victory. The problem is that I won't waste my time on such an attempt because I have better things to do. 😎

[@gibenameplox]

This is such a good and educational video! I sure hope people can learn from it! The video has tasteful family-friendly content, really really nice. Oh Algorithm, please share it with our fellow humans!

[@iamfromthewild]

Love your channel just found it on my lunch break and am going to binge all your videos later on

[@derelaxterakker2861]

my favorite video of yours, very well done and very interesting.

[@moralkombat66]

Will you ever make a follow up to this?

[@waynebollman]

How is that when I watch these personality traits get expressed by someone that I feel sick to my stomach and even repulsed at the deepest level of my being, but there are tens of millions of other americans all around me who think this makes for the greatest person and leader ever in the history of mankind? Are we all part of the same species? From the same planet? From the same universe?

[@Forcoy]

Many people are gullible.

[@MrWilson-zx9ix]

Yes

[@Velociferon]

Trump kind of reminds me of the biblical king Nebuchadnezzer.

Incredibly well explained and concise. Great job!

Why don’t u have more subs :/? You are amazing 🤩

[@CaminoAir]

I can't agree with Chomsky (at 16:40). Trump might be described as the most dangerous man in history, but 'greatest criminal' implies that Trump was capable of understanding the choices and consequences of being President. I sincerely doubt Trump was capable of understanding anything beyond a very narrow and immediate grasp of his position and what would be at stake, or be sacrificed, by his actions and conduct.

[@CenturiBubble]

did this get taken down the first time? what a travesty. this should be required viewing material.

[@charlesabboud1613]

This was quite superb, thank you so much for putting it together

My addition. Alcohol is about pain, cocaine is about power, rage is about fear & hurt. They all have addictions attachments. Swap 1 state for another.

[@ithaca2076]

not gonna lie i cant justify how he acts but i definitely feel bad for his childhood being mostly ignored never feeling emotion. i was similar, but instead if resorting to narcissism i fell into escapism

[@alexxx4434]

Same. Foundamentally narcissim is a way of escapism, it is just projected outwardly. The other way is to escape inward to yourself.

[@The_Schizoid_Man]

Are you gonna do a Biden one too?

[@Vojife]

Biden's pretty much just old

Yeah so this might seem a bit complex but Biden doesn’t think he’s a god

To put it in perspective, they love him as much as we hate him , and I've never hated or as been repulsed by someone as much in my life .

[@rajyavardhansingh4491]

Same here for Joe Biden, but for actual reasons, like his declining mental health and 50yrs of doing nothing.

The amount of trumpers in here is fascinating, goes to show they'll do anything for the God-Emperor.

the layers of shame and grandiosity and pathos you are able to put into a stick figure face is really awesome
