The classic narcissist is easy to spot. He fills up the room with his bragging and flashy vanity. But there’s a kind of narcissism that’s harder to detect.. They don’t show off their new car, they flaunt their moral virtue. Whether it’s about the poor, the sick, or the marginalized, no one cares as tearfully as the covert narcissist. These are the wolves in sheep’s clothing. This episode pulls off the costume so we can see these emotional vampires for what they really are.

Mainstream media want us to feel cuddly about 16-year-olds trying to kill other teens, and want want us to demonize cops who same potential victims from a stabbing. Celebrities claim to be the victims with fragile feels while targeting private citizens and family businesses for cancellation. Empathy is not sympathy. Real empathy means understanding, not pitying of buying into false claims of victimhood.

Come have some fun this week while we mock the sanctimony of the woke left. Have you noticed how today's adults use child-like imagery and odd cutesiness? From 40-year-old Harry Potter super fans to 'proud trans moms', hard lefties dress up their arrested emotional development in children's costumes. Like a lot of things, it's funny and grim all at once.

We continue the close look at what children experience behind closed doors with a Borderline mother. This week we illustrate some of these common abusive behaviors using clips from the 1976 film 'Carrie.' As in part I, this is a more personal and graphic episode that talks candidly about child abuse. We see how these character-disturbed people behave in public. This episode exposes the lengths they will go to in private when the world isn't watching.

This week we take a close look at the Borderline mother in fiction and fact. We'll look at popular film depictions that mirror what happens at home. Also, Vermont disregards the constitution again with a people-of-color-only invitation for the Covid vaccine, and new research suggests child abuse, not 'discrimination', explains the high rate of psychiatric problems in so-called 'trans' kids. This is the first of a two-part episode.
