If there’s a topic the woke like talking about most, it’s themselves. This is not unusual for people obsessed with their own well-being, status, and influence over others.

A culture based on such values easily tips over into narcissistic exhibitionism -- the obsessive desire to parade one’s self before others: nothing could be more important than satisfying the craving for attention, approval, and adulation.

These mental health quacks and charlatans wouldn’t be running amok had we not allowed the mental hospitals to be shut down. Prison, homelessness and human time bombs among us are not acceptable solutions. It’s a wonder there aren’t MORE mass shootings.
