I was codependent and had (still have)a lot of narcissistic issues. Until I realized what was happening, of course, I was a compassionate Democrat. It took a few years for the knowledge to really sink in and make changes, and issues are something you have to try to be aware of forever.

What the left defines as social justice, I call narcissism, because it is narcissism to assume that your definition of justice is universal.

What the left calls compassion, I call codependency because it's codependent to use the power of government to assume/take what is other people's responsibility.

If spiritual growth is all about assuming 100% of one's personal responsibility; then the left, which does everything it can to take people's responsibility ( in the name of help); cannot be compatible with spiritual growth.

Not to hijack the conversation, but it's also narcissism to believe that the climate, as it is now, is the ultimate climate. I suppose we can project this theory on to the "global warming" controversy.
