Good article. The whole thing may be as simple as an underlying evil Marxist ideology desiring to bring to an end of what is the USA and replace it with it's idea of utopia in spite of its proven failures in the past 100+ years. An evil ideology like Marxism, IMHO, is a natural magnet for people suffering from the psychological conditions and deficiencies described in the article as well as many other criminal types and opportunists meaning the left has an over representation of such individuals (Side note: Marx and Engels were two such screwed up individuals who basically kicked this whole thing off). "They" have bubbled to the top of the leftist hierarchy and have taken over the Democrat party and we are witnessing the results. The scary thing here is how they have managed to set the agenda for so much that is America today. The lie, of course, is one of their chief means to their desired end. More scary is they seem to have developed the means and methods to propagate themselves into the populace at large. They have an army of useful psychologically broken idiots and it needs a kick in the ass to wake it up.

And now the governor of Washington State is calling out the National Guard just in case, implying that the republicans might attempt to riot and destroy property after Tuesday's election. Apparently he disagrees with me that, "The Summer of Love" was a thousand times as illegal and destructive as "Jan 6th" was. That's even more than simple hypocrisy.

I'll say it again (as I have many times before): The symbol of the Democrat Party should not be the honest, hard-working donkey, but rather, the Roman god Janus, the true symbol of a two-faced, lying son of a bitch. Apparently accusing others for what you do yourself isn't actually one of Alinsky's 12 Rules for radicals, but it should have been. It seems to be their main form of attack these days.
Alinsky's rules are:
1) Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.
2) Never go outside the expertise of your people.
3) Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.
4) Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.
5) Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.
6) A good tactic is one your people enjoy.
7) A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.
8) Keep the pressure on. Never let up.
9) The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
10) The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will
maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.
11) If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its
counterside [positive].
12) The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.
13) Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.
We all need to know these and recognize when they're being used.

Thanks FFA +1.

Narcissists, Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a complex psychological condition that can cause significant social and occupational impairment. Symptoms include:
Grandiose sense of self-importance
People with NPD have an exaggerated sense of their own importance, and may feel special or better than others. They may also exaggerate their achievements and talents.
Need for admiration
People with NPD have an excessive need for admiration and may be preoccupied with knowing what others think of them. They may also fish for compliments.
Lack of empathy
People with NPD may have an inability or unwillingness to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others. They may also say things that might hurt others.
Entitlement
People with NPD may feel entitled to special treatment and may expect favorable treatment to an unreasonable degree. They may also become angry when people don't cater to them.
Exploitative behavior
People with NPD may take advantage of others to achieve their own ends. They may use people for personal gain or manipulate and control them.
Arrogance
People with NPD may behave in an arrogant way, brag a lot, and come across as conceited. They may also have trouble handling criticism and may become impatient or angry when they don't receive special recognition.
Envy
People with NPD may be envious of others, especially when others are successful. They may also believe that others are envious of them.

NIFO. The only way to be sure.

Projection is a psychological defense mechanism where someone transfers negative feelings, emotions, or habits onto another person or object. It can be a sign of a personality disorder or trauma, and is commonly found in people with narcissistic, borderline, or paranoid personalities.
Here are some signs that someone might be projecting:
Blaming others: They may blame others for things that have gone wrong, rather than taking responsibility.
Being quick to point out flaws: They may be quick to point out other people's flaws and shortcomings.
Making accusations: They may make accusations about others.
Being defensive: They may be defensive.

There's a name for that:

PROJECTION

Not HER table, I'll wager.
