> The space around NPD on Youtube is very saturated, but this one channel really stands out -- Dr. C is one of the few that have, imo, the discipline to orient his content around how 'narcissistIC' patterns operate whereas nearly all others fall into the trap of describing 'the narcissIST'. This is a fundamental and, for me, life-saving difference: Narcissistic patterns are hugely insidious, because they go undetected (by design) and can even become virtues. In contrast, obvious narcissIST is obvious. -- Dr. C uses repetition to reinforce the core identifiers of the narcissistic pattern: In nearly every video he will do a sort of 'verbal footnoting' to re-re-re-state what narcissism really is... -- ... the manipulation tactics around control. Very few Youtubers keep the focus on the narser's fundamental interest in 'control'. -- Dr. C has by far and away the highest signal-to-noise ratio of any nars channel. Every video is in list format, but as he goes thru the items in a given video, he frames them within the larger concepts of nars patterning as a whole. In my experience, this low-level/high-level framework is absolutely crucial and generative: When you see how behaviors emerge from a system, 'new' narcissistic tactics are understood as novel approaches to the narser's standard intentions.
