      My entire family is other than loving just for me. At 5 you the voice of GOD agreed with me on my thoughts to steer clear of both my abusive father & hateful, harmful brother. As I cried HE added on to say ""THAT MY MOTHER CAN NOT BE TRUSTED""! 53 years later, 6 mos before now HE showed me my mother's joyful heart after she again explained why she can't even try to ever see me as another man's equal besides that of my own older brother. Decades of abuse, including 3-1 hour mental health counseling visits to cure me of my suicidal tendencies as per my highly abusive father. Moms closest friend is a Catholic nun & is highly active in the same church she got married in to my father. Not once did father say he loved me & never told my mother that he loved her til I was in my mid 20's. I graduated high school with high honors but college was never spoken of & after 3 months of summer vacation I paid rent to live in the house I grew used to my abuse in since 5. At 5 I said to God as I first mentioned that "I at least have my loving mother"? HE said don't trust her. 2022 was crazy with mother's deception's 😢 and when she made the mistake of saying she loved me more than I could ever know... I knew that was a 100% bold faced lie. She additionally found an Pastor BASS TURD of whom attacked me inside this church office within 10 minutes upon our introduction. Dismissed or devalued my entire life's abuse to also include that my molestation by a family member was either my fault or did not even happen. I'm grey rocking my "NOTher " bc she has done nothing wrong & would sooner I commit suicide than she would agree to doing a single thing wrong, it's all me & it's me that must be crazy. Her ground work started on my Friday the 13th birth.🎉

    I appreciate the isights given in this video. Thank you. The part especially about believing they are smarter than other people from a young age, exploiting this as they age. This is another key piece to understand in the aftermath of surviving the wide awake nightmare of ex male partner I lived with, then fled from to save my life. Coming to understand first hand, learning from my predatory ex, the multiple maniacal machinations of a malignant narcissist additionally made more deadly by the Machiavellianism part of the Dark Triad.

      A step up from average isn't that smart. Then there's emotional intelligence which machiavellian predators lack. Instead sometimes just using outright brute force or deceptive surprise brute attacks. Being great at lying, manipulation, harming unsuspecting people doesn't take intelligence - it takes only the willingness to harm.

    I have done to tests and tried to score lower, I scored 76 & 78 on the match test...There are benefits I would say, it is tough sometimes, because of how you react to things or feel about ppl...Narcs are more sensitive and want attention, and are easy to manipulate, machs generally don't trust or have disdain for authority. I don't think this video is a great breakdown on it, it's kind of more generic

I have always thought of Maquiavelics as conspirationists, tricksters, and maybe even sadists, but those who are grandiose about their story telling for me are more on the Narcissistic realm...?

    Can a Machiavellian Target you, even if you're not a threat to her job.
    The person I'm talking about is second-in-command and my cousin was the boss.
    I was just a cleaning lady that came in three days a week. I was harassed, she lied about me telling people I didn't like them etc... Lied about things I did or didn't do.
    Lied about me being late when I wasn't.
    I was no threat to her.
    I wasn't looking for promotions or raises. Came in like a couple of days cleaned and got out of there. Last straw when no one was around she screamed at me and then tried to slam my hand in the door.
    She would never do that around others.
    I talked to my cousin and he said apparently he heard she don't like the fact that I'm his cousin. I quit.
    She was even watching me over security cameras when she was on vacation in Hawaii. HR person told me he thought Machiavellian.
    Pure guess . Still haunts me.
    What the hell was wrong with her.

    I feel like the diagnosis of symptoms is a very troubling feeding frenzy of overall people that has fed into the madness aswell as helps continuously like this overlapping circling around and setting off yet so many many Many more common themes of what had become the reality of the people now and for a very very very long time . Like disassociation for example,.. I watched a video last year. Can't remember who it was but I do remember he was in my perception on ever since then the the instant effect or instant happening of it happens so often like like it's instantly done before anyting else like you know the ego. And personally I'm not mentioning it or say anything about it or noticing it because of any reason to intend to make people feel something's wrong with them or anyting remotely close to that or give a diagnosis like I'm a doctor or claim to be one of any kind either observing while paying attention to the video which was about this subject and the effect it was then just something I could do immediately before I was even done watching the video and what really blows my mind is the fact that it's seriously real and it's not limited to just any specific anybody at all in fact it's absolutely everybody in every way and every life level of their status so to speak if there has to be one meaning they can be rich or poorthey could be empathic they could be narcissistic they could be I don't know whatever it is existing a human basically is all that is necessary at this point in my perception of that word itself the definition of it the explanation of what it actually looks like and of course inevitably of myself and I don't deny that continuously scene and had to redirect my own attention to it well it just eventually was like I couldn't not notice it at all just told you I mean what I'm wondering is that's not something that is noticed in a manner of like well like what you guys do or maybe if it's not mentioned other than maybe possibly being witness to it of the self and and of others say in the same line of work but just not saying anything because it's a big huge taboo so to speak and the fact that that is also very relevant for all that's going on that has been going on and the current events of such things that look the way they do and are actually going on the way that they do because you know how they say the truth will always set me free it will always come out. And that is really true it does always come to the surface and it will always free me personally I feel that way even if it's very uncomfortable and even if I overcoming that moment of extreme humility which is never great to go through but it's always worth it on the other side of it because of what it really means to me and not just to me but for others around me and just at all because see it is something I can't get away from feeling that way which is not a bad thing it's just it's been since I since I always and it's like the fact I feel other people's pain with physical emotional always was I told going out and in my adult life you're too sensitive Nadia you're being too sensitive and of course then something makes a person decide well I can't be open up about myself I can't express myself without being rejected and being disregarded that way and you know like I've been holding things in on purpose and I know this might sound crazy but since about 2 years old for sure I know that it was an awareness of not letting myself be open or you know like the need to hold back and hold in whatever it was that it was I was feeling or receiving about my sir surroundings and in a two-year-old's thought process you know you would think it would bemore like a whole lot of possibly questionable words mixed in with actual words and so on and so forth but it's just something I do remember about 2 or 3 years old having thoughts go through my head certain ones have stuck one of them was just a thought popping in my head that I just wished that everybody could just be okay and that didn't mean any specific individuals other than the all just everybody just everybody was everybody it wasn't saying my family only or these people including this one's in this one and not including others it it was just a simple thought and a feeling and however it was there I don't know how to explain it any other way than that but it also was something that has stuck with me consistently along with other things and one of the recent things that I found out and realize about myself and because I always was a certain effect like people had a certain reaction to me and and would share details of themselves and and things that would never be considered to share with anybody much less some person they just met a young individual at whatever age or even now but it's just was a common theme and always made me feel really good it wasn't anything like an ego not at all it wasn't it it's of course however someone precedes what I'm saying is going to take it however they take it it's that I'm used to thank goodness but it's the fact that the subject of disassociation itself has been a common theme of which happened consistently in my childhood and in my adulthood when in fact these inner knowing sore inner something's or whatever would be expressed and not always had I been verbal you might call it shall I reserved infp etc there's all kinds of types of similar things which are not rejecting any of them alls I'm saying is it's very common for the whole translation of what even is being spoke all the time not no matter what the subject the people it's about people that are sharing it that people that are listening to it seeing it even those that are living it and or believe that they're living it is that is and I say that because of the distortion that comes along with disassociation or I don't know like Rose colored glasses or your blinders you know wearing blinders or the self-defense mechanism which would I do know is where the eagle part of the brain it's and I'm not sure what the medical terminology for an ego is is called but you do however get the gist.at least, I hope..
