I would not be surprised if our current POTATUS has “Narcissist” tattooed in a private place.

Insert pic of chick with fake everything and an intellectual age of eleven taking selfie in a filthy bathroom here. Or Geraldo Rivera in a towel.

OnlyFans and TikTok are microcosms of American culture.

Correct, and they perfectly express our state of collective mental/spiritual illness.

We have been rightly proud of ourselves after educating enough of the populace to discard monarchism and adopting a Republic, fighting to attain it and continuing in confidence to become THE leader in the world.

Everyone was learning English to do business with US and they adopted OUR dollar as a global currency standard.

Damned STRAIGHT we come off as narcissistic, but IS it ?

When you know you know you know, . . . . Damn Man . . . you walk straight, strong and (if you will, to the unlearned) . . . arrogant.

They're STILL trying to f*** with our heads with sixties psycho-babble.


I'M A PROUD AMERICAN !

Kids have been raised by parents who for decades have constantly told them that they are “special” and hover over them day and night.
They don’t have the awareness that there are actually other people in the world, and they don’t care. (because they are special)

Now they are in charge.

The internet and the fact that God has pretty much been banished from the public square.

As children in Government Schools, the females and minorities are subjected to accolades, privilege and praise that is undeserved and excessive.

This may explain some behaviors.

It’s a big-time mental shock to most all (excepting of course those very few who can consistently sink a 40-foot jump shot or a 90-foot putt or who can write a couple hundred hit songs or plays, etc.) when they learn the hard truth that they are not “special” in the eyes of the general public.

It’s because we told God to take a hike.

The growth of mental disorders has been rapidly climbing in the United States for several reasons.

One reason is the closing of insane asylums. People who would have been previously committed are free to mingle and breed with other people who would also have been committed in the past.

Between cars, airlines, and infrastructure, people have more options to pick up and relocate, including people with mental problems. After the national highway system was built starting in the late 1950s, look at how many "oddballs" made their way to California in the 1960s. They were migrating from every small town in the U.S. Even now, look at how many homeless migrate between San Francisco and Portland or Seattle depending on the weather. They've built their own communities filled with a disproportionate number of the mentally ill.

People with mental illnesses have an easier time congregating compared to past history or currently in other parts of the world. The downtowns are filled with people who belong in institutions. They'll find drugs, things to steal, places to camp, and live off the taxpayers and the excesses of modern society.

People with mental illnesses such as narcissists are rewarded for their behavior in certain segments of society. Large korporations are known for hiring Type A personalities to fill certain positions. Rewarding them leads to more of them.

Government programs pay for mentally ill people to remain unemployed and allow them free reign to meet other mentally ill people and even breed. If they have children, the family is given housing at the taxpayers' expense.

We are now two generations into PsychFest and it continues to get worse.


In other parts of the world, people with clear mental illnesses are kept in check by default. There is no financial incentive to hire them as it's only in companies that have a disconnect between actions and accountability that some mentally ill can thrive. There is no overabundance of wealth to support groups of them on welfare programs. It is more difficult for them to leave where they live and move to a location with a higher proportion of other mentally ill people.

Homosexuals are malignant narcissists. Homosexuals have somehow risen to power in this country. That would explain the abundance of narcissism.

If I’m an American, which is THE exceptional country, and I have a coffee mug that says “World’s Best Dad” and I have one of those huge foam fingers that assures me that my team is Numero Uno then why shouldn’t I be full of myself?

**The internet and the fact that God has pretty much been banished from the public square.**

Our little country church has lost kids to Sunday sports tournaments (baseball, softball, basketball, flag football,volleyball) right here in the Bible belt, because....

....of the “look at me” epidemic. And the hopes of “look at me” getting the kid a college scholarship, and/or making the kid (and the parents) rich and famous.

I recall about 4 years ago, when filling in for a sick truck driver, hauling ‘special’ dirt for a high school baseball infield. That load went over 200 miles one way. The shipping cost to the school was near double of the dirt...

...for kids, of which maybe 5% would go on to play in college, and maybe one kid in a generation would be good enough to play at least semi-pro.

And where does most of the sports gear come from?.... you know the answer.

So basically we replaced a monarchy with an empire... now led by someone less functional than King George.

Yay us!
