Why do people put others down?

Generally, it gives a kind of ego-satisfaction for the attackers. There may be different levels of comparison and different attributes behind the unfair criticisms. Your physical appearance, looks, words, actions, education, performance – anything can be subject of criticism or ridicule. Some people may think: “We may not be very good or the best; but you are still bad. We are anyway far better than you.” This gives them a sense of satisfaction. Some others may be attacking you in advance so that you will feel timid and will not point out their mistakes or shortcomings. They may be actually feeling inferior, but trying to cover-up that feeling by insulting you instead.

Some of the insecure persons may try to project a false image of assertiveness and confidence, consciously or otherwise. Such people think that only their own beliefs and opinions are always correct.

Some of them may be victims of narcissistic personality disorder (NPD). Such people think that they are perfect in all aspects, and everybody else is always wrong in anything and everything. They cannot accept or even listen to other people’s opinions. They cannot discuss diverse beliefs and opinions with sound reasoning. So, they will blindly argue against others and resort to abusing people who do not agree with them.

And how many years would the battery in a battery powered bus last?

I’m guessing four years MAX..

And how much would it cost to replace the battery?

White liberal greenie ‘elites’ too much money to see how silly this battery technology is at this stage of development.

It’s rich guy’s unicorn stuff.

So you are saying those gas cars are “ R”

That was my question

What’s an R ?

Like I pointed out

You didn’t opine even 1

Now, today you give examples, of cars not named “R”.

But then, you didn’t.

So you
Still
haven’t disproven my statement or answered the question I asked.

You progs always evade and rewrite history.

Every
Time.

Oh, btw,

The current holder of the Outright World Land Speed Record is ThrustSSC driven by Andy Green, a twin turbofan jet-powered car which achieved 763.035 mph - 1227.985 km/h - over one mile in October 1997.

Not
Electric.

“Your life , if you aren’t just a digital bot which with every post of yours I suspect more and more, must be a sad empty regressive world void of meaning, morals, joy, satisfaction.”

Why Do Some People Put Others Down?

————Morning Coach-——————

1. They are envious of you
Envy is one primary reason why somebody will want to pull you down. For example, a person might be jealous because you have something they don’t have. It could be a material possession, achievement, status in life, or positive outlook. Toxic people feel bitter, so they think, “If I can’t have something, neither can you.” Therefore, instead of exerting effort to achieve what they want, they will resort to showing hostile emotion towards you or belittle your successes or reputation.

2. They want attention
The troublesome person in your life may be an attention-seeker. So even when toxic people make somebody feel inferior or make fun of other people’s mistakes, they don’t care if their actions are wrong as long as they get the attention they want, even from hostile action. The more you react or interact with their efforts, the more they will gain attention from you.

3. Low self-esteem
Somebody who habitually puts others down might be suffering from low self-esteem. They can’t see themselves in high regard and feel unable to improve their situation. However, instead of putting in the hard work necessary to be successful in their lives, they make themselves feel better in an unhealthy and destructive way. So they resort to putting others down on their level to feel good that they are better than the person they are belittling. Making others feel miserable through verbal abuse and draining somebody else’s positivity is the name of their game.

4. They need to feel superior
When a toxic person has low self-esteem and wants to feel better and superior to others, there’s no better way than to point out others’ mistakes and make them feel insignificant or useless. By putting others down, a toxic fellow can think that he is better than others without doing any hard work by putting others in a negative light.

5. You are a threat to them
One good reason why somebody wants to pull you down is that they feel threatened by your presence. A toxic person seeking something might feel afraid that you will take it from them. They might think that you are better than them regarding skills and talents. Instead of engaging in fair play and competing professionally to see who’s worthy of gaining something, a toxic individual will employ demolition tactics to destroy you and thus prevent you from getting what they want. They will try every way to demean you and obstruct your efforts.

6. They want others to like them
Sometimes, somebody makes fun of others or hurts others’ feelings because they want most people to like them. The problem is that they are using the wrong way to gain admiration from others. A toxic person can be somebody who cares too much about what others say about him and how he looks to others. So what they do is try to make somebody the butt of jokes and criticisms, hoping that people will turn their attention to him positively. What toxic people don’t realize is that their actions may backfire as they can be seen as antagonists, especially if other people know the victim well and the insults thrown are not valid.

7. They desire to control others
Some people are control freaks, so they employ methods to make others feel weak and useless. They destroy the victim’s self-esteem to bend under their will. So the next time somebody wants to guilt-trip you and hurt you emotionally, it could be because they are trying to manipulate you to do what they want.

8. They didn’t have the proper upbringing while growing up
When you come to know of a toxic person’s background while growing up, you might feel pity for them when you understand what they went through, such as a bad childhood experience. They could have lived in a troubled household, been bullied, underwent trauma, didn’t gain the proper education to socialize and communicate properly with other people or have underlying mental health problems. As a result, they can have difficulties understanding and feeling empathy towards others. Their behavior acts as a defense mechanism to shield their insecurities, so they project their faults at other people. They also might not be too familiar with social norms, so they can’t effectively communicate what they mean to others.

I see only one video (OP) and it doesn’t show that.
