> They literally couldn't comprehend the idea that others weren't just hypocrites. I've worked for/with a number of narcissistic sociopaths. They love to surround themselves with two types of people: 1. Loyal fawning adorers who give them narcissistic supply. 2. Other narcissistic sociopaths. 2 was a surprise to me when I figured it out. Why would they want to be around their competition? Because they actually believe there are only those two types of people in the world. And Type 2 are "their tribe." Anybody who claims not to be one of those two (i.e. "Type 3") is obviously a lying hypocrite and is not to be trusted. We Type 3s make them very uneasy. If you find Dracula lore amusing, it's astonishing how these 3 types map: 1. Humans (i.e. food) 2. Vampires 3. The Van Helsing family (i.e. vampire slayers)
