Not all, but many narcissists are the product of incarceration in narcissism; all they ever knew. They don’t know how to love because they’ve only ever been hated. They know that something’s missing. They know that they’ve missed out. Even the narcissist from permissive parenting, that brought him up to feel duly and tragically entitled, knows that he has missed the boat called love.
Many narcissists have been punished too far.
There are the narcissists, as I mentioned, who were treated far too well—which is a travesty of abuse, not only against the entitled one, but against all those who would become part of their life in future. These were treated in such undeservingly pampered ways that made a mockery of love. Their definition of love is an unadmonished admiration where they alone are to be awed. And the great tragedy is whenever they discover this is a fabrication of lies, that their self-image is a house of cards, it destroys the veil, ripping it in two, and the veneer shattered brings a reckoning they cannot reconcile. It is an uncut horror movie.
Joker is the former kind of narcissist. But, in the terror of a background of unconscionable abuse, his personality fractured, there are the delusions of grandeur that prop up a show that faces destruction by the minute.
He is driven to a place where evil is all that’s left. There is a tragedy in what can be seen as an upside-down twisted parody of love. Joker seems capable of love, and certainly knows what love is, because he knows that he’s missed out on it all his life, but all the same, love is tantalising and always more than out of reach. When the moment comes to face the truth, however—that his world is full of rejection—it drives him to a place where all that’s left is evil. Psychopaths and sociopaths face this either consciously or unconsciously. They have been driven to psychopathy and sociopathy.
Those who think they’re something make those who aren’t who they are. One shape of evil creates another. Those who reject those who are rejected merely create a form of evil that will trounce the one who did the rejecting. These are the elements of societal anarchy, and where the hobnobs and the gentry have disdain for the plebes, the plebes will always find a way of causing a revolution.
Unremitted trauma leads to soul ruin. There always comes a moment of cracking for those who have been made bankrupt of soul. Whenever a human being is pushed to beyond what is reasonable, we had better expect what cannot be predicted.
The sentiment that says, “They may not realise it, but I’m their only hope,” is a sick joke. That kind of arrogance is the antecedent to a shameful failure. The powers that BE, in their own narcissism to own the narcissist under them, weaponises the narcissist under them. Any "sinner" trying to be Jesus, especially disdainfully, will fail very majestically.
Two final thoughts:
Underestimate evil at your peril. Laugh at what you judge as pathetic and you will bleed tears.
The truths of evil shatter people into a million pieces and they cannot be put back together again.
