The disease of liberalism.

Individuals with this disorder exhibit a lack of ability to empathize with others and an inflated sense of self-importance.

Definition
The hallmarks of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) are grandiosity, a lack of empathy for other people, and a need for admiration. People with this condition are frequently described as arrogant, self-centered, manipulative, and demanding. They may also concentrate on grandiose fantasies (e.g., their own success, beauty, brilliance) and may be convinced that they deserve special treatment. These characteristics typically begin in early adulthood and must be consistently evident in multiple contexts, such as at work and in relationships.

People with narcissistic personality disorder believe they are superior or unique, and often try to associate with other people they think are unique or gifted in some way. ( Liberals general believe they are superior. It indeed shows in internet posts)

 This association enhances their self-esteem, which is typically quite fragile underneath the surface. (this is the reason for their cohesion to the liberal message. They emotionally need the flock and to differ is to be shunned.)

 Individuals with NPD seek excessive admiration and attention and to know that others think highly of them. (Constant empty virtue signaling - it is not what you do, but what you believe.)

Individuals with narcissistic personality disorder have difficulty tolerating criticism or defeat and may be left feeling humiliated or empty when they experience an "injury"(comfortable with victimhood) in the form of criticism or rejection. (This neurotic intolerance and feelings of humiliation and victimhood build until the Liberal in an explosive histrionic, unbalanced behavior. Exhibiting screaming throws a fit at those they disagree with.ie. Trigglypuff or violent action, i.e., blocking streets burning schools and neighborhoods,Antifa and violent protests.
