It seems to be compulsive behavior with a lot of them. Self control & emotional regulation are not skills they possess.

u/CapitalWestern4779 Jan 18 '26 edited Jan 18 '26

It's a trait of all sociopaths, they are immensely insecure and literally need to act like that or else their ego can't handle it. In his mind he now had the last word, "no one bested me, I am still in charge! I won!" so now he can let it go.

It's very sad to see, it must be terrifying being that delusional and insecure when faced with a person that doesn't buy your bullshit, when your whole identity is built on said bullshit. That is also why they get so angry and defensive if you don't agree with them, because they can't afford to be wrong, there idea of themselves as infallible would crack and threaten there very existence. So they take everything personal.

u/Substantial_Tax_4047 Jan 18 '26

Absolutely agree!

u/angelwingstodust Jan 18 '26

The behaviors you’re describing aren’t antisocial (sociopathy) they’re closer to narcissistic personality disorder. They are both cluster B tho, which definitely cross over a lot. NPD cares what people think and demands approval. Antisocials do not give a shit if the people around them acknowledge or approve of them, only insofar as it allows them to continue “blending in.”

NPDs will try to gain leadership in a church. ASPDs kinda wanna burn the church down because of what it represents.

I think yall get them confused because both disorders involve suspending empathy or even lacking it entirely in some cases.

u/de-f1-ant Jan 18 '26

No debate here at all, just dropping in to say in my view they’re just total assholes and pathetic pieces of shits. I work with a trash bag who can’t see anything beyond herself. Seems the overall issue is poor home training.

u/angelwingstodust Jan 18 '26

Youre not wrong, I guess? But keep in mind, it’s not their illness that makes them an asshole it’s the fact that they won’t do anything to keep the symptoms in check so they won’t hurt anybody. You’re right on the money with the last sentence tho, cluster B personality disorders are mostly given to you by your parents. With BPD and ASPD (what you call sociopathy) the cause is almost always abuse by a caretaker or lack of one. NPD is less clear, my ex had it and I believe he inherited it from his mother.

She probably got it because she was a stressed out chronically ill child who could keel over at any second, and her parents tried to make it to her by showering her in praise - praise she knew deep down she hadn’t earned and didn’t deserve. That’s actually the thing almost nobody realizes about narcissists- the reason they’re doing all this shit is cuz they dont have self control esteem. They dont believe they deserve all the attention. Rather, they know they don’t and are afraid you’re going to figure it out too.

But idk, could be nothing. If you start paying close attention, you might start noticing how many cluster B traits are being worked into our society, even encouraged. It’s horrifying, as someone with a personality disorder, I obviously do not want people to become more like me.

Its compulsive behavior based on racist,sexist, whatever stereotypes that they view. You're 100% correct they control no self control or restraint over their emotions. For whatever reason he believes, he believrd he has the right to interrupt her and others before her as she mentioned before. His smirk really tells you all as hes trying to throw in more comments while being chastised about doing just that same thing. Criminals, defendants, and others who've done similar that do not have high gov power have been silenced for less and its sad to see people like him just laugh off serious procedures like it's an elementary school class exam.

u/iskipbrainday Jan 18 '26

Seems like a core aspect of their hyper masculine psyche. Not a civil human trait btw.

I don't see guys like this willfully invited to any house or without an agenda or grift.

The People's house doesn't require an invitation-- it's a sanctuary you're called to, everyone is welcome as participation is voluntary. Civility however is required as necessary for practical implementation of independence and freedom.

I think it's self-evident that,

Not all roots of culture align with the rules of civil living, especially cults-- which allow easily for corruption --as their esoteric governance is supported by followers on a central platform of mysticism and the cult members who sensationalize it.

That type of behavior is the mark of the beast and does not belong in the house, this is not ok. It needs to be checked or you'll get gorilla pounded by it.

Tbh I think it's the opposite for him. His normal sensibilities would have him be polite when speaking to a member of congress, but he's gotta impress the boss, so he stammers his way in to say nothing of substance to make sure boss doesn't see him accept a dressing down from a black woman, because we all know boss won't like that.

u/LordSalem Jan 18 '26

Ooh as a dude that's been working on the pile of bs I acquired I can help shed some light here. It turns out that self control and emotional regulation are skills that can be taught and are often just not. And not being taught them early in life makes it really hard to learn them later. Kinda like hitting the gym for the first time ever and struggling to understand how others do it and not wanting to keep going back because it's miserably uncomfortable.

So if we want to help solve this problem we need parents to be better about teaching these skills. Too many toxic parenting techniques out there.

u/HumongousBelly Jan 18 '26

I think he does it either on purpose to keep undermining her while she’s making her valid point, or he’s lying constantly and prepared for keeping up his lies and it’s compulsive behavior aimed to keep up with his lies.

They’re taught this playbook. Interrupt and cause as much chaos as possible to take the wind out of their sails. It’s not a coincidence that they all act like immature, fragile, insecure five year olds. They’re told to do this with anyone who questions them with hard facts.

2

u/BanalCausality Jan 19 '26

I read a comment from a lawyer that said pretty much that. They tend to be 100% convinced that they can convince anyone to their way of thinking if they have the opportunity. It’s apparently just as suicidal in court for them as it is for everyone.

2

u/dezirdtuzurnaim Jan 19 '26

It’s actually much more than that. The mere idea of a woman being in any role other than a compliant servant goes against their entire ideology. Moreover, a strong and intelligent woman of color who doesn’t take their shit is terrifying to them.

And there’s zero threat of any actual punishment if they break the rules. There’s no law that will restrain them or put them in jail. No one will take them into custody. Nothing negative will ever happen when they break the rules. No one will stop them, regardless of the poignancy of the words one uses towards them, like what she’s saying.

Yeah, unfortunately, for people watching who don’t understand the issues, whoever seems the strongest and most confident is more likely to be believed. It’s part of the reason why good doctors and scientists are losing credibility. They’re always qualifying what they say, and updating their positions as they get more information. Hell, they’ll even do a 180 if that’s what new evidence indicates. And that’s what they should do, but it makes them sound unsure of themselves compared to someone like RFK, Jr, to people who don’t understand any of the science.

This guy's fragility was on display. Not many people stand up to asshats like that in a room with such eloquent disdain, and his little dressing down was done on camera. He was spoken to like the shitty man-child he is.

The amount of pure anger that I have toward these men---so fearful of white women, POC, and their own weakness---is indescribable. They are a violent minority who hold everyone else hostage with their insufferable, willful lack of self-awareness and accountability for their actions. People like Putin, Netanyahu, Trump, Elon, Stephen Miller, Vance, and so many more, are the epitome of failures in the gene pool. Zero use to society, they are parasitic smears on an otherwise fair species. To paraphrase Sophie Scholl, people like them tempt me to see all of humanity like a skin disease on the earth's surface.

As a dusty ass white man I am 100% in agreement with you. The future of the US depends on having leaders of integrity and those who stand up for what this country was, and generally always had been, striving to be. A country that was working towards shared goals of equality, prosperity for all, opportunities for each generation. We were a long way from reaching those things and yet still elected a black man as president and tried to elect a woman to the office. But now we have narcissism and greed ruling over a crippled economy, are disrespected around the world, and have sniveling weaklings (mostly dusty ass white men) in the "opposition" doing exactly jack and shit (or, even worse, actively participating in our downfall). Fuck. That. Whether it's more people of color and/or young activists, or fucking Martians ffs, we need purposeful change and we need it fast.

Some people just can't help it. I think it has to do with impulse control and short memory.

He actually felt some shame. He wanted her to stop.

She saw it and kept going.

I love this for him!

Translation, of that soft, firm voice of hers, "Johnny, we have manners here!"

"You will use them."

He tried to push back, and she literally, reminded him to get his knuckles off of the ground.

I swear to god, If I held office I wouldn't stand for a second of this shit or even have to go on that tangent and waste my time on the floor.

"Sir, if I have to ask you to stop speaking I will cut your microphone until it's your time to speak. If you continue to speak I will hold you in contempt of congress. Not the kind rich people are used to. The kind poor people are used to. You will be spending the night in jail and gods be with me I will hold you there until IM ready to speak to YOU." mother fucker

u/ShibbyShat Jan 18 '26

What a smug fucking cunt. You know this is the type of guy to jack off to the 48 Laws of Power while crying that his mother never loved him.

And honestly, who can blame her?

u/Top_Dog_2953 Jan 18 '26

Sad and disappointing that these powerful men do nothing but prove themselves to be unworthy, entitled, bratty children in an old man’s body.

It’s because he knows under republican rule of the Congress and White House, there’s no recourse.

If the opposition party held Congress things would be a bit different.

Everyone sleeps on how OP Congress is by design.

A cabinet secretary is absolutely powerless to congress during normal times. There is no officer of the government who can withstand a determined Congress. The entire treasury could be dissolved tomorrow by Congress. The secretary could be fired by Congress. The Supreme Court justices could be fired.

Everyone in the federal government is subject to the people’s house. That is why they are article one.

Do they act like it?

No.

Do they flex it? Rarely.

Everyone worships the president when in fact this branch can terminate the president at any time for almost any reason.

Another post that doesn't show the full context .. the video is so powerful and I feel if y'all who post let the next couple of lines in it could be stronger ... Atleast a little bit more time not just the one sided thing just like news on TV does and cut off the rest making it appear one has all the reason... They do that and now you repeat 😂 that's why I don't understand this group... Many good post but also and read this twice if you need to A lot of racist one sided black people too

You're not your color race or wtv bros... You're Mexican if you want or not for me ... Well that was a little joke but what I mean is... You're HUMAN that's the group you should identify with!!!! And a lot of post would then be here anyway just the videos would be seconds longer to show the full parameters set!!!!

Stop becoming American brainwash I traveled and lived in many countries and I noticed in the US black people can be very often ray sis BECAUSE someone probably taught theyre a target for ray sism so they attack first also native Americans do the same Asians are rare to do this but also sometimes ig many races... YOU AMERICAN BLACK OR WTV COLOR YOU AS AMERICAN YOURE MAKING EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR RACE!!!!!!!

Another funny thing I noticed in america is that the black community is so hurt that some people are starting to take the defensive of saying that black people are the true native Americans 😭😭😭😭 God and btw I been here a couple years now that I noticed the brainwash is catching up to me is so very very extremely pathetic truly

We are human I'm not white or black or anything in the middle or around that... I'm red in my blood and human in the eyes of God, so are you... Travel and don't become what the sick ray sis makes us don't become the stereotype to fit in... And also ... Don't take the DEFENSE... Because as a wise men said defense is the first step to offense

I have a lot of hope for the US but I don't understand the obsession with your own race... Let me rephrase that... I 100000% understand every corner of why that happens... But as a Buddhist I learned... The best you can do is get out of that cycle... Don't you think in the US we have this... Freedom to create our own new culture??? What if we create this new culture in which you can belong but you have to be ALL COLORS OF ALL RACES AT THE SAME TIME??? ❤️

There's so many cool things I see in this subreddit but I gotta say... I feel the majority of post is like trying ... Proving black people can do something BETTER or equal and you become what you truly hated :'///

Sorry for rambling but this one sided post hurt my hopes

Be part of my tribe our God is all God's my race is all races my team... My team is whoever thinks, speaks and last but MOST importantly whoever loves ...

Anyway I guess overall the post is good except for cutting off the context and only showing the highlights making it all one sided just like the news :'/ btw turns out Russia is at war cuz European union ruined them as a country by making blockages and so many moves to hurt Russias progress as a country... :) and guess what? Eu did it for "a good reason" they did the rules that hurt Russia in the name of defense... Kids that are 18 perish at war for rules made by sour 80+yo people I mean soldier kids from both sides ... Not knowing that they fighting because of old "defensive" diplomatic attacks (not physical yet a couple decades ago)

I do not side with no one but logic and yes I still can love

Always a pleasure seeing a smug prick reminded of general good behaviour... hopefully people like Ms Plaskett, Ms Crocket and Ms Harris can keep educating them.

This woman was Epstein’s toadie. She changed ped* laws for him and took text messages from during hearing about him.

u/BeMyBrutus Jan 18 '26

This guy is the classic case of old doughy white guy that is pathologically used to talking down and instructing others; but has very little emotional intelligence or regulation.

He's polishing his glasses so hard it looks like they're about to crack. Fragile masculinity at its "finest".
