I’m really jealous of these types of guys’ ability to lie without feeling anything. If I lied like that, I’d be embarrassed because my words sounded like bullshit. How do they do it?
See, I don’t know! I used to think that too! But then I actually met some people like this, and a lot of them absolutely do not believe the shit they say! They’re just really good at convincing other people that they do.
I once knew a local “activist” who frequently weaponized leftist language in order to police or punish other people. Ie, accusing people of racism for ordering an Asian Chicken Salad at a fast food place, or for trying to learn Spanish at the community college, and she would phrase her criticisms in such a way that any complaint would make the other person seem wrong. I legitimately thought she was just mentally ill.
I found out later that she was trying to blackmail and defraud a local charity, and that’s when our association ended. She has been banned form some community organizing spaces because she inserts herself into every single one of them.

Cocaine helps with that
Damn
It’s probably a lot easier when they have themselves fooled as hard as any other

Well there’s the dark triad in action
