Further, NPD is diagnosed through observation of behavior or reports of behavior, and regardless of NPD diagnosis, any symptom of NPD is necessarily narcissistic. My slim hope is that narcissists will become more mindful of their behavior, recognize that they spread misery, get evaluated, treated, and either be cured or mitigate their disorder below detectability, and narcissism will become extinct, because there are few things in this world that completely and utterly suck as much as narcissism, and it is everywhere. I'm not sure who made pride popular and decided that it can be harmed, because it is an indulgence. The virtue is the opposite of pride, namely, humility, and in general, virtues are the antitheses of narcissism, beyond humility including charity, modesty, gratitude, temperance, patience, courage, accountability, commitment, courtesy, cooperation, empathy, forgiveness, respect, reliability, sacrifice, sincerity, and so on and so forth. Rather than the Golden Rule, narcissists subscribe to egoism to act only selfishly and in self-interest, as their ego is central to the motivation and goal of their own actions. By and large the political ideology of narcissism is conservatism and libertarianism, focusing on exclusivity and their wealth and their interests and their rights against and in contest to those of all others, in contrast to liberalism, which is an ideology of tolerance, liberty, equality, and promoting general welfare.
