He’s a sociopath, that is beyond being a bully.

Bullies often have horrible parents 😢. Hurt people hurt people. I HATE bullying.

[@CaliGirl799]

And become bullies to their own children. That's why I didn't have children. I wanted to stop the generational abuse.

[@michaeldubois3415]

The only reason I call BS on that is because we all have the ability to make decisions without being hateful or harmful to other people. My parents messed me up and years later they’re gone now and I continue to be better.

[@illissawhite2676]

​@@michaeldubois3415Well you're obviously not A NARCISSIST PSYCHOPATH! THAT'S A WHOLE OTHER BALL GAME! MOST PSYCHOPATHS ARE MADE BY THE FEW WHO WERE BORN THAT WAY BUT SPREAD THEIR AFFLICTION THROUGH CONSTSANT ABUSE IF THEIR OWN KIDS & EVERYONE ELSE AROUND THEM.

[@DeAnnaG_KissingFrogsMedia]

Not gonna lie, been on both sides of that coin. I learned better as I grew up, and side with empathy and being kind most of the time. I save the bully part of me as my boundary enforcer/defense mechanism. I own that sometimes I can be a heinous b*tch, but it took alot to get me to go there as a younger person, now my peace is more important, so she's on quite the hair trigger right now. I give what I get, so step kindly, ill be kind, pull a jerk move, say hi to my enforcer. It took alot of work not to be a doormat, im not going to play that role for anyone anymore.

Thank you. You put into words what I couldn't. Love this for you (and me!). xo

[@ELEMENTARYWATSON52]

Same here. I can be very very nurturing, and also very very cold. Their choice.

[@mitch_s]

That would require for them to be self-aware enough to feel they need fixing.

[@maplelatte3366]

And it doesn't get better. My mother is 88. She has been narcissistic, paranoid, hostile, and aggressive for longer than I've been alive, and she was recently diagnosed with dementia, which means take all the stuff that already existed and put it on steroids. No self awareness, and she has never had to face consequences. She blames me for the diagnosis and for the DMV revoking her license. She's about to end up in a home, and that's going to be my fault, too. I've been trying to help, because I'm the only one left to help, but I'm done.

[@reignofbastet]

@@maplelatte3366 I’m so sorry. I have one of those also, 71, but no dementia. Her hatred of me, for simply existing, is so great, it’ll only die when she does. Some people should be born sterile. I truly hope you have some peace in your life. Narcissists are the worst, no matter whatever crazy they may also have. They just can’t stop their hate.

I’ve dealt with the bullies my whole life. GenX was the apex of bullying back in the 80’s. Not surprised they voted for the felon en masse.

[@DetroitGothic]

Older GenXers basically fell in line with their parents political viewpoints. I'm a younger GenX and there's no way in hell I'd vote for the geriatric cheeto (much to my dad's chagrin.) He's 30yr army veteran who's getting ready to FAFO, big time

[@davidnordmeyer513]

[@reignofbastet]

I’m sorry about that, but not all of us are fuckwads. I’m profoundly disappointed in our generation (I voted Harris).

[@Ketowski]

Not surprised either. A cynical, and often narcissistic bunch. The result of coming of age during Recession after recession for the Good Ole trickle down. That turned out to be only the Golden Shower.

[@Ketowski]

@@davidnordmeyer513 Good for you. It’s often those with parents of the silent generation that are the most messed up, in my experience. Little to offer others and a huge chip on their shoulder. Though they often share that!

What i find tragic is schools ALWAYS protect the bullies.

[@MotayeM-w2i]

[@amberfuchs398]

Bullies are playing out repetition compulsion, traumatic reenactments, transference, projection, etc. onto others. They become a perpetrator and continue/spread the cycle of abuse.

[@Ketowski]

True. If we start calling it abuse, then maybe we’ll begin to get it addressed.

[@MorrigansRaven3944]

If you were bullied as an adolescent/teen, you can smell bullies a mile away. You learn real quick to not pity them, you avoid them. 9 times out of 10, when they're finally stood up to, they generally back down. Imho, kids/teens/adults who are bullies are missing, or missed, some kind growth in their basic personal or maturity development...be it experiencing and learning empathy, humility, humanity; responsibility/accountability, understanding cause and effect, the ability to weigh reason and logic, understanding fantasy from reality....there's a myriad of reasons and combinations it could be; and every person is different. Let alone the very real damage and trauma it can cause...sometimes for lifetimes, for both the victim and the bully. That's why I've never understood why parents and schools don't take the problem of bullying way more seriously with young children. Unaddressed, many grow into older and bigger bullies. And the bullies victims need help, as well. Very damaging. Also, bullies don't always from 'bad' parenting/parents...it's just that something was missed somewhere that the child needed and didn't develop.

[@Ketowski]

Because it’s abuse and that’s not taken seriously in the greater society until it’s extreme. Prevention is less lucrative and the biggest social currency is money, not good relationships. Gee, wonder why that is?!

[@lorennania5945]

trump is nearly 80 what is his excuse?!

[@Ketowski]

He’s been doing it all his life and gotten away with it because he’s a Silver Spoon and it’s a Two-Tiered justice system. His Dad was a major sob, and knew how to do it in socially appropriate ways, since his company contracts came by way of NY politicians. If you want to know how it developed, look at Mary Trump’s most recent book or videos about it on her channel.

[@jackdeangelis8052]

they are all around us, how people don't recognize this is probably because they are themselves sociopaths or they are abused or use to these insane behaviors (normal). as others note, they have a shared psychosis,... he speaks their language, they are one in the same.

[@Ketowski]

True. There’s a whole religion that develops and promotes that dynamic. Representatives of close associates were at Trump’s MSG rally. Grant Cardone and Nation of Islam. The organization managed the greatest infiltration of the American government in history. Then they fairgamed the IRS. Into getting their tax exempt status back. Much like Trump and Musk are operating.

I'm 74, and I'm amazed at how fast we are becoming what we fought not to be. If I remember correctly we fought a war against being under a kings thumb. I know they want to take us back, but damn it's only good for the king and his money making friends; for the rest of us serfs not so much. Burning books, preachers wanting to burn witches, all benefits from companies gone except lousy insurance that you have to help pay for but only for what you can afford, if you need dental, glasses or mental health well that cost extra. If they can get us back to being able to work and actually afford to pay for our houses, cars and the other things in life you need without going bankrupt like you used to be able to, then great. But the way we're going they should be talking about building debter's prisons at this point and putting our children out in the fields to replace the people they're going to deport. Rest assured once the kingship starts deciding what is best for you, as in health care for women, thats only the start.

[@marilynhoward380]

Hawk, correct me if I’m wrong, it sounds like Trump. Sad existence but also dangerous for those around these people.

[@theperry500]

You can't tell them to get help because they don't think there's anything wrong with themselves.(I've tried) Trump is a smuck, but I do feel sorry for the man, to live a life as he has, he will die unwanted, unloved and all alone.

[@Ketowski]

Yeah, and if history repeats itself, like Mussolini. Unfortunately, the current capitalist system is heading toward hegemony and worse. So, Baron might indeed be one. His parents seem to be grooming him that way. And indulging almost every whim, so he turns out like a carbon copy of his Daddy. And his miserable paternal grandfather.

[@Jehu-f2d]

Damn this is so spot on.

[@HappyHoney41]

As a person who is autistic and has been bullied. (People have no idea the isolation and bullying autistic people bare.) Luckily as a kid; I was able to fight back enough, that mostly they left me alone. In today's society, the autistic child who fights back often gets the blame for defending themselves. And people wonder why autistic people have a greater sense of fairness and rail against that which is not. I don't feel bad at all for any adult bully. they are grown and should know better. They are the people who should have gotten the message that that is not ok. They need a good trip out behind the woodshed.
