Blame Americans. Blame America. Don’t blame the “psychopaths”, blame yourself for not understanding yourselves.
Good people want to prosper, enjoy their lives, their families and loved ones. Good people in their primes are always ineffectual in matters of power. Those exceptions you can see why they are so, and such tenacity of will and rebounding spirit can only be said compulsive. More psychosis to set you straight.
Without “principle and devotion”, that translate to lives on the line, your ideas are mass delusion and cognitive dissonance.
Power is made of people not societal assurances, this generation is one of sweet lies over bitter truths, and the opportunists and fanatics have every advantage.
* “loudest voices”, most persistent and invasive into the mind.
There's a general complaint that narcissists get ahead in America, one of the worst things about Trump that doesn't get talked about is that he sets a bad example. When Trump was elected the first time my mother-in-law quit going to the local casino for a while because people just got ruder and lewder, tried to grab her ass more and stuff like that.
The only thing good about a high-D environment (see [1]) is that high-D people don't feel like they have to mask and pretend to be low-D, they are not "wolves in sheeps clothing" but are actually explicit about how they are. (As narcissism is a developmental arrest, high-D people don't understand how low-D people operate and find masking really hard)
In the last six months there has been a chorus of people who say things to the effect that "Elon Musk accomplished things because he is an asshole" as opposed to "he accomplished things despite being an asshole" such as a certain "high agency" splog that's been submitted many times to HN but never made it to the top.
But the breakdown in participation recently is the failure on social media. If you give dark triad people the ability to silence their political opponents, they will. Downvotes, flagging, reporting. They'll abuse these features.
This is what X does differently under Elon, he understands this abuse.
The loudest voices will prevail.

First and foremost, power is made of money, everything else is a distant second. "Whoever's got the gold, he makes the rules" (tm)

Jordan Peterson has been talking about this for many months. OP and him arent wrong.
It's not new, politics is by definition controlled by these psychology traits.
