Self-esteem isn't the same as narcissism, whatsoever.

It's not "50%" genetic.

Narcissism is a belief system.

You're boring.

For now, the main contributing factors to NPD seem to be: Genetics

Tsk tsk tsk

I'm curious, what's your job?

My job is to portray truthful information so that stakeholders can gain insight.

So I enjoy looking at the information you give me and see if it's correct and if it's the complete picture.

You're quite biased toward nurture and give little regard to nature in this subject.

While it's common knowledge that both are impactful.

Human behaviour. You'll find speakers that talk more about the nurture part. You'll find speakers that talk more about the nature part.

You are biased toward the nurture part, so you will align yourself more with speakers that talk about that. While willfully ignoring the other side of the truth.

We all do this.

It's beautiful

Your own article disagrees with that statement.

There's no gene associated with narcissism and no biological mechanism of action. There's no cure. It's a belief system.

You want it to be nature because you think it will give your behavior a pass. It doesn't.

Everything being legal gives my behaviour a pass. But that's beside the point.

The article does include genetics as well as nurture.

It also states that a lot of it is unknown, so we cannot be definite.

"Several studies from across the world have demonstrated that narcissism is, at least partly, genetic—in fact, according to a couple of studies, the risk of inheriting narcissism is over 50% in some cases. Narcissism, like other conditions under the behavioral genetics umbrella, is often studied using twins."

Guess why the legal system was invented, kiddo

[-] Wanpieserino@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Because we want people to stop doing things we don't want them to do. With we, being whichever group having power.

Nothing I do is illegal, and hence of no consequence.

My life's so fucking easy

Using a funny word whenever you're at a road block causes growth to stop 😁
