Everyone I know that has a PD is exceptional in some way and most are extremely intelligent. Not every therapist/counselor/psychologist/psychiatrist was at the top of their class. Some of those people barely graduated. Some of those people couldn't pass the licensing exam the 2nd, 3rd time (true story, I know someone who failed 3 times.) I guess that would be the point where my narcissistic traits kicked in because my feeling is "Sorry you are so intimidated by me that you need to villanize me. Buh-bye." One of my exes who I was convinced either had NPD or Anti-social PD had this quote as her email signature and in some ways it is pretty true: "Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds." -Albert Einstein

And Einstein here was talking about the brutal suppression of free speech and equality by the Nazi, to prevent and intervene against genocide. It is interesting when psychos use these types of quotes (that are pro peace, non-violent and rationale) to justify their violent actions and cruelty- that is a head turner. It is really scaring how many people are like this, no empathy for others. We are in the same situation now with all the refugees fleeing violence in their home countries and the lack of understand and basic empathy for their lives and needs. Sick, Effing Sick!!!!
