We had just noted in a post yesterday about how you never hear the term “far-left” — from Democrats to the media … even from Republicans. The media’s focus is always on the “far-right wing,” or the “ultra-MAGA conservatives.” The Atlantic just informed us that Twitter is now a “far-right social network.” AOC has said we need to protect Drag Queen Story Hour from the “far-right,” while no one said a word about the far-left militia members who brought AR-15s to protect an “all-ages” drag brunch in Texas.
A new study has been published about left-wing extremism, and it links it to psychopathy and narcissism, which is not a shock.

Alex Mitchell reports:
Left-wing extremism is linked to toxic, psychopathic tendencies and narcissism, according to a new study published to the peer-reviewed journal Current Psychology.
“Based on existing research, we expected individuals with higher levels of left-wing authoritarianism to also report higher levels of narcissism,” the authors wrote.
As result of the new data, study authors Ann Krispenz and Alex Bertrams have coined a new term for such psychological behavior: the “dark-ego-vehicle principle.”
“According to this principle, individuals with dark personalities — such as high narcissistic and psychopathic traits — are attracted to certain forms of political and social activism which they can use as a vehicle to satisfy their own ego-focused needs instead of actually aiming at social justice and equality,” they told PsyPost.
That certainly makes sense to us. Trying all summer to burn down a federal courthouse gives some sick meaning to your otherwise empty life.
Tell me something I don't already know.

Exactly. Dems and the media treat them as “centrists” just trying to do the right thing for everyone.

That’s right.
I don’t think so!
Most libtards I know think they are smart. Likely some college professor told them so and the brainwashing begins. So if you disagree with them, especially with logic, it is like telling them they are not smart. Lately I have decided to skip the debate / logic part and go straight to “you are either stupid or evil”.

Sounds like the overwhelming majority of leftists manifest what is known as the “dark triad” of personality traits: manipulativeness, narcissism, and psychopathy.
Exactly.
I have recently been wondering if the number of people with dark triad personalities is growing, or if it's the same and they're just less concerned about concealing these traits.
Bookmarking psychopathic libiots article posts links.
Thanks.
I tried searching for solipism def. Didn’t suggest solipsism. Obnoxious search engine, Bing. Anyway, I agree.
Good response for libiots.
Mine is a different article. I found t’other post, when checking what was under psychopath, but ain’t read it yet.
If the same article is posted 4 hours later, it is not considered a duplicate? BTW, this post is a different article.
A Twitchy.com “Duh!” moment.
I believe it.
