Steven Crowder Is A Narcissist - CHANGE MY MIND

This video was really hard to watch but I had to cover it. Steven Crowder has never been my favorite, but this new information about his divorce and the way he's controlled and mistreated his VERY PREGNANT wife makes me sick. I get a little angry in this one.

The smoking of the cigar around her drove me crazy. I had parents who smoked around us, and all 3 of us kids have some form of asthma, frequent respiratory issues etc heck my mother had COPD listed as 1 of her C.o.d's. so you can only imagine the amount of second hand smoke us kids got. Me and my sister both had strict rules about not smoking around our kids.

The way she says “I’ll have someone pick me up, who would you like me to call?” is very indicative of someone who’s dealt with this behavior before and has learned how to survive it. Even when she gets what she needs, she has to compromise something or give up some kind of control in order to get it. She’s letting him have control of who picks her up because him having any amount of control is probably the only thing that’s ever ended the conflict. I’ve been through abuse my entire life and seeing how she reacts to him is so sad. I hope she’s healing

[@bucherregaldomi9084]

Hi! Sorry to ask, have you ever been in a non-abusive relationship? The idea of never been on one is so sad to me...

[@cymbelinebritain6799]

Exactly. I saw that leaked video a while ago and I could tell immediately from her behavior that this was not a first or one-time only occurrence. She was worn out and worn down. When you're in abusive relationships, and especially if you have young children (I had 6) to take care of, you don't have the energy to continue to argue over who is right. You have absolutely no idea how important sleep is until you're kept up for 3 days at a time by someone who is berating and insulting you. (of course when they're done, they go to bed and you're left taking care of all the kids and the house, etc.) You're mentally, emotionally and physically spent and all you want is peace so you'll concede to just about anything just to get it.

[@mialovestravel]

[@sorryoutlandish]

Crowder reminds me of my bio dad who was actually like this during my parents’ divorce. He constantly complained that my mom was really the bad guy taking away his kids, etc etc when he was, like and unlike Crowder, actively abusing not only my mom but also my siblings and I. He was also incredibly mentally unstable and a drug addict. Most often, abusers never want to admit their faults and narcissistic abusers especially put blame on everyone and everything else but themselves

[@justhearmeout3959]

This is a tragically excellent case study in how effective abusers are at gaslighting not only their victims, but the people around them as well. The video starts with her wanting to leave to get some space. And people on the internet are arguing about the dogs and the groceries. Everything other than the fact that he was trying to control her and not let her leave.

The fact he's like "The state of Texas allowed her to leave" when he literally hired the divorce attorney and moved out first is just 🥴

[@churchmouse4287]

I agree. I was so relieved once my mother left my father

[@rewdskwid]

Divorce is always traumatic for kids no matter the situation. But just because something is traumatic doesn't mean we can't learn from it. Leaving toxic partners teaches children to be more choosy and have higher standards for themselves when they start dating. If you stay with someone who disrespects you for the sake of the children, you teach them it's okay to be treated badly or even treat others badly. I hate when people use their children as a cop-out because they themselves are too afraid of change.

[@jackiehuff7736]

​@rewdskwid that's not true. When my parents split it wasn't traumatic at all. While I acknowledge that might not be the common experience, it is possible to have non traumatic divorces. My parents essentially stayed friends, never argued in front of us, and still celebrated holidays and special occasions together. Their personal lives suffered a bit, but they made that choice to put us first.

[@mchsy5554]

Her staying calm and telling him I love you resonates with me so much. I feel like she’s used to deescalating him. She was trying to connect to him and get him to see her, but he just said “I don’t love you.” He’s so disgusting

[@tomdebevoise]

She must have had some counseling. This is called 'grey rocking'; I did it for the last 3 years of my marriage. Quoting ChatGPD: "Grey rocking is a strategy in interpersonal relationships where a person intentionally becomes emotionally unresponsive and uninteresting to limit engagement with someone causing them harm or stress, making themselves appear dull and unremarkable as a grey rock. The goal is to minimize conflict, manipulation, or attention-seeking behavior from the other person by denying them the emotional reaction or interaction they desire."

I have personally known over a dozen women who have bragged about getting their husbands falsely arrested for things they did not do so they could “get it all and full custody without having to pay for a divorce.” Yes these women said this shit. They also have been horribly abusive to their husbands one would spend all the money he earned for lavish vacations for herself and not allowing him to come but stay back and work so she had more money to spend when she came home. She would take all his paychecks put them in an account that only she had access to and she bought houses in only her name and took vacations probably 9 months out of the year as he only worked nonstop. He ended up dying never getting to enjoy his life or travel and now she’s freaking out because she can’t take more vacations not that her husband is gone. I’m a woman and I’m sick to death of women abusing the power (they should not even have) over men. Literally holding many hostage.

[@ElizabethMidfordHatesCops]

Narscisstic abuse isn't actually a thing! There is physical, sexual, emotional, and mental abuse. Typically, when people use the phrase "narcissist abuse, they are referring to emotional and mental, but not always. Seeing as being a narcissist is a personality disorder (NPD) which is a part of Cluster B, people with NPD do not have a specific and unique way of abusing people. And not everyone with NPD is abusive, just like with any group of people. People with NPD are also not more likely than others to commit abuse, and it is said that they are more likely to harm themselves than others. I hope this helped you learn a bit!

[@corneliahanimann2173]

​@@ElizabethMidfordHatesCops I am a bit split on this comment. Not that I entitely disagree with the content, but because I don't like the gatekeeping reaction people have to say that only people with a diagnosed mental health issue get to describe themselves with the issues the disordered people usually have. Like, I think I can speak about having more adhd-typical issues with focusing, or describe your way of cleaning up as ocd like. I myself actually have adhd, and while I wish people wouldn't selfdiagnose without ever seeing a professional, I do think that someone who has a similar struggle to me, gets to describe it as an adhd thing without having implied diagnosis, because mental health disprders exist on a spectrum and when the sbove person speaks of narcissistic abuse, I think we can safely conclude that this is stuff that most people who experienced abuse in correlation with a narcissist, are experiencing a similar thing. I know NPD is a more nuanced and complicated topic, but I don't personally know if Crowder actually is a narcissist, I think he could also be one of the many people that are neckdeep in theie coping mechanism from complex post traumatic stress disorder. It could be a lot of things actually, but narcissism is commonly a defense mechanism, and as someone who was raised and abused by a narcissist, I think describing something as narcissistic abuse is just a fitting description of what is going on. No matter what Crowder is dealing with in his mind, he is so lacking in empathy that it has a disordered nature when he speaks to his wife. He can not help but continue to inteepret his circumstances in any other way but only from the one lense that mskes him look like the victim. Whether or not that is his condition, it definitely feels like it is. Maybe we need to see the difference between established terms like "emotional abuse" or "physical abuse" and understand it as an adjective that describes a noun.

[@Dabestbirb_]

Wow, that plot twist in the end is phenomenal. He tried to paint himself as the victim by repeatedly complaining that is is legal in Texas to get an divorce, kids should be raised by 2, blah blah…but he hired the divorce attorney in the first place. WOW!

[@shelbyausich6768]

Around 29:30 when you are talking about how impressive it is that she is saying "I love you" as he is being abusive, that's a tactic abused people learn to physically protect themselves. Stay calm, reaffirm them over and over ect. Notice she looked at him the entire time she backed into the house, never turning her back. As a victim of serious DV that tone, body language, those words are all very familiar.

There was a time I liked “change my mind” years ago. I am a liberal with some conservative perspectives…but after Trump was elected and his podcast took off, I saw the disgusting side of him.

[@rewdskwid]

Totally get that. I was a teenager with a lot of internalized misogyny due to liking more masculine activities and being bullied by both men and women for not being conventially attractive. I really liked his anti-feminism stance but never explored further than that. So glad I grew out of that and didn't fall too hard down the pipeline.

[@Ikine557]

Taking him at his word about the physical safety thing (a mistake, I know), perhaps he's talking about his kids going through bullying at school for having a public figure father who went through a public divorce. Wouldn't be the first time a kid's parents' internet life leaked into their school life.

It’s one thing to treat another human being like this but to literally watch an extremely pregnant woman be belittled like this?

He has literally NO respect for her. It’s so disgusting. My god.

He reminds me of my mom's ex husband. Spent like 15 years making sure she didn't work, didn't have her own bank account, didn't have her own money, and constantly made any version of her standing up to him into sinful action that would get her shunned from the one community she was allowed to be a part of: the church. And wouldn't you know it, when she first separated from him her biggest fear was that she couldn't take care of herself or my little brother financially, and the church did shun her because she couldn't prove he had been unfaithful. He then spent the next like 5 years dragging out the divorce trying to prove she shouldn't have custody of the youngest sibling but luckily he showed the judge his entire ass in the process. He went through like 4 lawyers and the church member who bankrolled him finally quit doing so. The level of delusion in this narcissism is terrifying.

[@Dabestbirb_]

7 minutes in, I fell out of the Steven Crowder loop awhile ago, and I thank you for covering this on your channel. He keeps mentioning “physical” safety, I think feels genuinely concern for his twins’ safety because he cannot fathom them being raised in split custody or single mother household, and simultaneously he is attacking his wife’s character by subtly implying she is abusive or neglectful and unfit to parent. It makes sense with his current public history of control.

He's clearly just inventing reasons to be angry, and she's physically not able to leave because of the car stuff. I never saw anyone have to ask who they're allowed to get a ride from, but this was like a view of my childhood. It shocked me how everyone else responded to this. You really never know how other people live, and I didn't even realize they didn't live like this.

I get so sick of you people thinking it’s now possible a woman can instigate a argument then start recording it to make the man look bad. Stop pretending it doesn’t take two to fight. If anything she started all the fights by letting another man screw her when she was supposed to be faithful. I would be just as mad if my husband had cheated I wouldn’t talk to them respectfully especially when they know religious beliefs prevent filing for divorce. She abused her marriage her vows then what expects him to kiss her butt forever. Get over yourself. Women can be just as manipulative and evil as men.

[@vulcanhumor]

I have a suspicion that what Stephen means when he says "I want to protect my children" is "I don't want my children taken away from me." The reason he keeps emphasizing how the divorce is not his children's fault is because he's afraid of losing custody and visitation. Basically "it's not the children's fault, so don't deprive them of their father." Which is ironic, considering how hands-off he's been, but he probably just wants to retain influence and control over them since they're his. He is trying to use them for emotional manipulation, and I wouldn't be surprised if he sees any sort of custody negotiation as his wife "bringing the children into the divorce," even though that's something EVERY divorcing couple with children needs to work out.

[@andresvillarreal9271]

Why, exactly, does a family with a bit less money than God, have only one car? My guess is that they have many cars and adorable Steven does not want his wife to have any of them. She should not be driving while eight months pregnant and Steven should be accompanying her to do the groceries, but at the very least he should not be forcing her through his control of the money.
