The opposite was. You are all bad
The same women was never there emotionally but she was dealing with the narcissist abuse. So I'm torn
Blind btayal because I wanted love. But never understood that these people have their own agenda.
Omg Richard, this power struggle is hard to bear. But yes . I did this. To me. That's the hard fact
They also look for older people with money and a place to live. Then take full control of that space
Lol I got educated too.
It's evil its done deliberately
Being prone to a percieved inferior undoes the egos assessment of inferior/superior. Enforcing cultural/personal values is the same lack of value. Then one cannot enforce ideals on others that one cannot live up to himself.
But I learnt to love and once I got educated because I wanted to be a god perant. I found out that this abuse was wrong. I'm grateful that I took this information to improve children's life I my career as a special needs teacher
Love boming is like ice cream on top of shite. Never want to eat that eT
No Richard.
For those interested, look up Mauro Biglino, and the books The Naked Bible, and Gods of the Bible. Hint: the old testament is not about God or spirituality.
It seems to me that all the attension is on the narc. But us victims/survivers deal with coming back to us. How do we hesl
Good advice
I felt my narc. Sex addict was trying to encouage me into his harem. To control me to excuse his infidelities. I resisted this cult mentality. Thanks god. I never knew theese people existed wtf
Question.??? Why did i fall for this shite???
š“š„ you guys should come to Bay County Florida and see how highly infantilized everybody is. The narcissism is very bad on the beach side. I bet you coastal towns and party towns are worse on the infantilization š„š“ the men are so bad here I have clients tell me that their girlfriends move away from here cuz the men are complete trash
Your comment regarding air travel /understaffing IS happening regarding aircraft maintenance!
Definitely not ok!!
In fact, FAA has started banning a certain airline from expanding flights due to it's lack of aircraft maintenance. Just fyi!!
So then Richard. Is it the wY you belive you should be treated because of your historic belifwill treat you
I would love to killmyself but not in real life. Just to get away from the abuse
Richard how are you coping in real life now. What advice would you give to us people who are genuinly suffering? Im not looking for a magic wonnd just guidence
Really cool how you guys are splitting when talking about Fauci. It was a traumatic time so I'll give you a pass.
My ex, due to whom I am here, was actually a member of a religious cult. Not religion, a religious cult.
He was actually born and raised in it .
A leading member.
No wonder why I went through all that.
I have imposed total no contact. He breaks it, because he is that arrogant.
Really enjoyed this!
Thank you and I hope to see you two collaborate again.
You Both have excellent audio. My hearing has detreated, I listen with a Bluetooth speaker.
I'm almost certain Piers Morgan hasn't developed a lisp?!!
I'm pretty sure he can afford Quality sound systems.
I think my IQ increases when I Listen to your discussions.
In my opinion the said IQ drop in society is directly related to people working too many hours to try to make ends meet and stress and unreasonable expectations.
Q: what is the source of the shame?
Total great talk great info talk thought
"Listen, the Soviets are calling the conservatives the bad guys and the conservatives are calling the Soviets the bad guys. Stalin has good intentions, I'm not taking sides. Taking sides is the problem! If you want to destroy Stalin, you need to take a good hard look at yourself. After all, if you want to defeat Stalin, aren't you the same as Stalin?" – Richard Grannon, centrist Muslim
Yesā¦the oldest daughter of the oldest daughter is definitely one of the toughest men youāll ever meet š„“ššš
Thank you for your time and thoughts gentlemen šŖš„ā¤ļøāÆļøšš¦

Amazing to hear how the organization within the cult becomes comfortable. So I guess itās that the Indoctrinated usually are quite confident and comfortable where they are. No wonder they deny any and all reality that doesnāt fit the narrative.
Oh I definitely did not do nothing. āAccountabilityā for my actionsā¦.and the dam flash backs that accompany that shit, is an entire 3 chapters of my dam book Iām thinking š¤ maybe 4 š¤¦āāļøš¤¦āāļøš«£š«£š«£š«£
Unless they experienced it for themselves, I donāt see their degree as being helpful at all. Iāve been through that shit enough. Their egos are always bigger than the damn degree, and it all just sounds metaphorical to them. Or delusional or exaggerated. They donāt understand the death of how crazy making mental and emotional abuse is, and all they know is what they read, that is most likely outdated. Waist of time and aggravating as hellā¦.further gaslighting a persons perception of their own reality of the trauma and abuse they been through. It makes things worse if they just donāt get it.
Cult- a group of people also known as the mob who have same views or who are hypnotized in the same way
Iām not done watching but I HAD to comment @~12:45 Richard talks about the āpayoffā in narcissistic abuseā¦ I hate being such a sycophant but OMG ding ding ding Richard nails it AGAIN!! Friends would ask me repeatedly what do I get out of remaining āfriendsā with this person who totally used me for his own self-serving needs as a human pet of sortsā¦ the sense of Certainty that Richard articulates is exactly it. Iād never been able to verbalize that before, but it 100% rings true. He walks through life with sense of mixed arrogance and distainā¦ there is no questioning his point of view, whether heās qualified for a job, good enough to date, making the right life choicesā¦ in his view there IS no other way, always. And there is a sort of comfort that comes with being āpartneredā with someone who is just seemingly is so cool and collected and has his shit so together, even if it is at the expense of all other interpersonal relationships. For someone such as myself who doubts herself *constantly*, the arrogance is welcomed oasis of outsourced confidence and decision making authority.
Itās so interesting to hear Mark talk about the comfort he finds in order, and more interestingly for myself his mention of visual order having a similar effect. I work with children on the Autism spectrum and lining up, organizing visuals and objects is what many of the children do to regulate themselves, itās their happy place . However they will often get stuck there and are reluctant to move on from the organizing and would rather stay in their reality.
Thank you for an inspiring conversation on difficult issues š
It didnāt dawn on me until a few days ago that my boss Iāve had for 5 years that sheās probably a narcissist and her team of women are her flying monkeys. My denial and just blindness not seeing this after years of listening to u Grannon and Vankin since 2014. Denial and just blocks to seeing it and playing the game of self doubt and carrying the blame for everything and still not exist.
Is that why you like posts about Donald and the Mason handshake???
Why Boeing? To take away your freedom of movement
Awesome! š
Ah Mark, I thought I heard a hint of an accent!āŗļø sending Big Love from your homelandā¤šæš¦ you are doing valuable work, thank you.
I had a similar experience when I watched Ben Hur as a young person
Is humanity getting dumber or is our nutrition getting worse?
Thank you, this video has validated one of the most mind bending experiences of my life that I can never articulate, that no one wants to hear or would even believe.
I am so grateful this video got to my email.
I started listening to you when being a hostage and I did realise it.
Trying so hard to get back on my feet.
Keep up the good work.
The luxury of surrendering responsibility to a great leader (good father) is pure joy in the same way that having to obey a poor leader (bad father) is sheer hell.
This is pure gold. Richard is spot on! As usual.
He is absolutely right about hero worship and imitation of one's idols as an evolutionary strategy – his adolescent feelings towards Charlton Heston/Ben Hur were entirely natural and Hollywood in its heyday was brilliant at exploiting that natural tendency by providing incredibly glamorous alpha males and alpha females as role models.
And it isn't just an adolescent tendency – a lot of narcissistic control is based on the narcissist having great charm, charisma and sex appeal and being highly seductive even to heterosexual members of the same sex.
I knew a devastatingly successful somatic narcissist woman who could have anyone she wanted wrapped around her little finger in no time by exploiting her considerable beauty and sex appeal – even with straight women – who just fell at her feet – she was a master puppeteer.
The only people who were immune to her hypnotic qualities were those of us she openly despised and had no time for.
But even we could fall under her spell if she turned on the charm for a moment to get some favour out of us.
What was especially upsetting was that her ugly side was incredibly ugly – she was one of the nastiest people I have ever known – gratuitously so – she was a sadist always attacking the weak purely for sport and to feel powerful.
She was also frequently disappointing because behind the facade she was quite mediocre – a fairly average person – and very inauthentic and unoriginal – it was all clever window dressing.
But I saw people fall for her act again and again and had to admit the power of her physical charms and seductiveness was indisputable which is why female stars have just as many if not more female fans.
We long to have their power and observe closely hoping some of the magic will rub off on us if only we can learn their techniques of enchantment.
