Ugh... this article is getting flagged because it's ironically written in the neo-toddler style that it condemns, but the topic itself is quite interesting and I think worthy of discussion.
That cluster B personality disorders seem to be having more "effect" on society than they used to is something I've noticed myself and the reasons for why this is the case are unclear.
- HPsquared 2y agoIt's the ability for "loudmouth" types to broadcast their voice far and wide. Most online content is produced by a tiny minority of prolific posters, something like a Pareto distribution. There isn't the same structured approach we had for a long time with centralized media. This has both good and bad effects, but it's the new reality.
- mindslight 2y agoIt's not actually irony if there is no self awareness, and this article has none. The central term "neotoddler" is itself just an instance of throwing inflammatory trash into the discourse, hoping that it will strike some chord. And pigeonholing political movements as if they're entirely represented by their worst members is just the continued stoking of polarization us-vs-them. This communication/behavioral style is definitely a trend, but the article contributes little beyond being an example.
