So this video popped up on my YouTube feed. WARNING: copoganda, murder, discussion of domestic violence. The tldr is that the woman accidentally killed her boyfriend, the boyfriend got arrested for a few domestic violence calls so 🤷, but then the woman goes completely white lady on the situation and denies any responsibility and argues every point like a 5 year old. Her lawyers all quit because they can't stand her, and people are chiming in the comments that they knew her IRL and that she was a massive a-hole in her town. One lawyer quit over professional differences, and other lawyers quit for different reasons.
I sorta think that maybe this woman sucks, but locking her in a box for 40 years isn't gong to help anything.
I will mention that I've been burnt hard by narcissists in the past. But once I've learned to spot them, they're just often sad. There's a few in my various communities, and we all just sorta manage and ignore them. Oh, maybe I'm wrong, but they often seem more rich than the general population.
While I don't know for certain that my mother has NPD, my opinion has long been to believe that she does based on my observations and therefor not hate her for abusing me. Like, I'm no contact with her and everything and despite my sister insisting that she's changed I dont have much interest in trying to rebuild a relationship, I just... don't hate her. Not that she doesn't deserve accountability for her actions or anything I just, I can't bring myself to apply contempt to her either.
