"Narcissism is a barrier against reason and logic." This is really well said.
Is the way he puts it, I was thinking about this video for this very sentence you have remarked.
I read this at the the exact same time he spoke it...
@@Frenchblue8 - Please, don't keep us in suspense, who said it?
Yes, so true!
I'm going to use that quote in my book
“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”
― Issac Asimov
Oooo great quote. I researched the movie Idiocracy again for the first time since it came out and it felt too real
Oops I meant rewatched lol
Well, that’s why the US is actually a Republic, for this very reason.
@@PutinsMommyNeverHuggedHim Clearly you need a history and civics lesson, Allie. I suggest you find one, a mere 5 minute google search might have saved you the embarrassment.
I wasn’t arguing whether a Republic was a democracy; it is a FORM of democracy. There are MANY different forms democratic societies can take.
We were set up as a Republic by our Founding Fathers for a reason, I’ll let you find out for yourself but hint hint (it has something to do with the original comment!). It will be sure to dismay you though, as it brings your own ignorance up, directly to bear.
But in case ignorance is an ongoing theme for you, I’ll give you a heads-up that REPUBLICS are where the people do NOT directly choose their leaders...they elect REPRESENTATIVES who will do the leader-choosing FOR THEM.
Why is that? Well once again, it has something to do with the original comment! LEARN something today and do yourself a favor; take care.
@@mamavswild well said but seriously, be cautious with your delivery only because certain types of people will automatically shut down from even hearing the points that you are making. With something as vitally important as this, we can not do tit for tat jabs or stoop to a certain level.
Remember, in abusive relationships, the most dangerous time is when the victim is leaving the abuser.
Oh, Jesus. This is so accurate. Scary times right now.

That's why it's important to tell the victim to buy a gun and some pepper spray and if she's not willing to ice her ex-boyfriend herself to hire a trigger happy bodyguard who is.
That's a great point.💙

Dr Grande's "informal" video feels as formal and organized as a lecture. I almost started taking notes 🤣
Will there be a quiz?
@@karoleg3366 I'm fine with that , I enjoy listening to him.

“Narcissism is a barrier against reason and logic” Absolutely, I don’t think this point can be overstated! Thank you Dr Grande
Dr Grande, I couldn’t agree with you more. I feel that many Americans need to realize trump’s attention is increasingly focusing on punishing America. The USA is failing miserably at supplying trumps narcissistic demands and we’re having to pay. They will be punished along with the rest of us. Already >300,000 Americans have died to COVID 😖 essentially trumps narcissistic carnage.
I've seen otherwise brilliant people hold some very idiotic ideas because they don't want to admit that they might be wrong. Narcissism invites the practice of regularly burying your head in the sand, consciously in the sense that you dismiss any criticism out of hand, or unconsciously in that you desperately do not want to be wrong about something.
Most of the leaders on bith sides are narcissits
@@Sashas-mom underrated comment from Doctor Grande
@@boxingexpert9065 true and the point being at what point does a narcissist have their limits? What’s out of bounds for them?
When you have escaped from narcissistic rage, manipulation and victimisation you know without a doubt that it is dangerous and real.

This is not a riot compared to what BLM/ANTIFA thugs did over the summer... They looted businesses, killed people, burned cars are formed 'autonomous zones'...
Its funny how 'experts' run to criticise rightfully angered Trump supporters over an election with many dubious situatations but didn't say a word about how leftists has been calling conservative Americans racists/ sexists/ white supremacists when they disagree or resist
He's not comparing the two at all. Not commenting on blm or antifa at all. Just simply stating what happened was fueled by narcicism.
Basically every president has been a narcissist.
@@kurger100 60 failed lawsuits, some tossed out by Trump appointed judges, and voting certified by republican state legislators proves that it was a fair election. Only in the minds of you delusional fools is there a controversy
This is exactly what is happening, the Republican Party is at war with itself. Now Trump is attacking his own Vice President, and not allowing the Pence's chief of staff in the White House. He set the two Republican senate candidates in GA up against their Republican governor and Secretary of State. McConnell lost control of his caucus in the senate because a couple of opportunists wanted to grand stand trying to take on the Trump mantle. It's also no coincidence that a pipe bomb was found at the RNC. This mob that invaded the Capitol has no loyalty to the Republican Party, only to Trump.
"Welcome to the party. Narcissism is a real thing. It's really dangerous. It has real consequences..." These words are no overstatement. Thank you.
It's sad and frightening. In Latin America we've seen enough of that. Wish you the best, USA. Don't fall asleep.
Sad to hear, yes. What specifically do you see in common between this leader and some in Latin America's past? Is part of it that they are willing to perpetrate a set of lies and where truth is non-existent, or just the part about narcissm and caring only about themself.

One pushed off a Roof another was a veteren mom looks like you there for her 2k check and she was shot in the neck only because she moved he was aiming at her head. What's are the rules does she have to be black shot by a white cop and then it's wrong? He executed her. He picked out one of them to shoot the least of the target's and fired. Those that were inside I laughed at because they stayed between the tour ropes because at heart these are lawful folks no records not the typical blm Antifa rioters.

@@MarcosElMalo2 Agree with you both. Trump has been rejected and he is enraged. He needs to be removed immediately, he may not be through with his revenge.

"Welcome to the party pal", I too can relate when Elaine Chao whom just resigned as the Secretary of FMCSA even though she was getting replaced by the new administration. Elaine refused to protect truckers from rioters on Interstates and after just watching the DC riot on TV, decided to quit. The world would be worse off today if truckers decided to quit and not deliver essentials across America. Truckers faced the virus, rioters, no parking, waiting 8 hours to get unloaded, rates cut in half, no place to eat, rocks from overpasses broke windshields, assaulted drivers and we're even shot at. As usual, trucking men and women have stepped up to the plate for America. Mitch, her husband needs to follow her out the doors.
she has lived in the swamp for many years.
I have relatives who are truck drivers. I have great respect for them. Like you said without truck drivers, we’d have nothing..
As a fellow trucker I agree with what you said. We were told the official response for truck drivers who come upon protestors, rioters, or looters is to turn around if possible. If not possible proceed at a slow enough speed that people can get out of the way but fast enough that they can not jump on your truck or trailer. If you run over anyone keep going until you are a safe distance away, at least two miles, stop and then call 911. They said never stop. That was the official guidance given by the federal government. Interstate truckers are under the domain of the federal government so any crime against them is a federal offense. Did you know even peaceful protestors who block a truck are each subject to a $15,000 fine for delaying interstate commerce?
@@ramblingbill9101 Apparently, the laws that should protect truckers are not enforced, it is the opposite, like the tanker driver that got mobbed by protestors blocking I 35 in Minneapolis. He was beaten down, wallet stolen, etc and they are charging him with crimes not, the protestors. Our judicial system is ridiculous. It would help to only hire educated law enforcement not, uneducated and biased people.
Thank you for your service.
We really need more level headed and open dialogue like this video. It's time to heal in the USA.
👍 love your videos, man. They help ME heal.
Fuck that noise. democrats are in power and the knives are out.

@@dfinite4089 yes everyone needs to be protected especially children. another good place to look is narcissistic abuse communities, people with lots of experience can often describe them with a lot of nuance
i kind of think people can only understand it in depth with experience (it sounds like dr grande had his fair share of experience with them, probably why he seems to *get* them) and then if everyone else could somehow be warned and truly understand the depth of the damage they can do, without having to actually experience them, would be great.
"It's only fair if everything is all about me! It's only democracy if I get what I want! It's only a fact if it suits me! Me, me, now! I get to throw violent tantrums and then pretend to be the victim if things don't go my way!" Not sure how there can be really any doubt about it.
While keeping my own hands clean.
EXACTLY!
The thing is that describes in essence what has been going on in progressive circles since 2016. The Dems never stopped stamping their feet and moaning about how unfair it was. Million spent on investigating 'Russian collusion' and nothing turned up. The pathetic attempt to impeach Trump. It seems hypocritical to accuse the other side of not respecting democracy when one has spent 4 years exactly doing that.
The US has become like two school children arguing. Neither side is consistent in their position and neither is listening to the other.
When BLM was burning cities such as DC, progressives were telling the police to back off, now some rightwingers got into the Capital and they want the National Guard to machine-gun them. It's bonkers. Whether they are (mostly) peaceful protestors or domestic terrorists seems to depend upon your partisan position.

*_Tolerate, in fact, may be far too weak a word to describe the complex relationship between toxic leaders and their followers. These intriguing leaders first charm but then manipulate, mistreat, undermine, and ultimately leave their followers worse off than they found them. Yet many of these followers hang on. I do not speak merely of the leader’s immediate entourage-the leader’s close-in staff and advisors. I am speaking also of the larger mass of supporters (employees, constituents, volunteers) who only glimpse their toxic leader through a glass darkly-perchance through a window of the executive suite or on the television screen. More surprisingly perhaps, even those groups charged with keeping leaders under the microscope and on the straight and narrow-the media and boards of directors-fall under their sway. Followers of toxic leaders often do much more than simply tolerate them. They commonly adulate, abet, and actually prefer toxic leaders to their nontoxic counterparts. That astonishing choice occurs

I've been thinking a lot lately about how sick our society is. Our political leaders, business leaders, media, universities, et al seem to be completely narcissistic institutions
Joe Biden is narcissistic and in favor of Hitlers ideology search the videos yourself! He speaks in favor of The New World Order!
The elections were stolen!
@@onewotldgovernmentonlywhen9044 You give a claim. The burden of proof is on you. Provide some sources like credible websites or youtube channels that explain what you're talking about.
No such thing. They're all apart of the same club with the same agenda. 2 wings of the same bird.
I'm happy for Dr. Grande for growing his channel so well, I've been watching since he was at about 100K. I've noticed with the growth that the comments have gotten really nasty at times. Its not the same as sharing opinions or feelings about the video anymore, but I guess thats the internet...I hope things continue to go well Dr. G
I started watching him to brush up on theory for licensure. I was pleasantly surprised when he expanded his videos.
Nasty is putting it too mildly. While I was not being allowed to sign in for the last a few days to his channel in order to share my comments too some people there were starting to act so bad in their comments that they would make any self-respecting man from the cave man era seem sophisticated in comparison.
I've seen it happen before as channels grow and attract a wider audience with different opinions and beliefs. I prefer la vie en rose 🌹 😎
As always a very lucid commentary on a destructive problem. I really enjoy the 'wisdom' of your videos.
Thank you so much for addressing this Dr. Grande. I was hoping someone would and you laid it all out very well. Happy new year.
These events ripple through the psyche of the world. I’m in Australia and feeling anxious about the fate of America and ergo, the world.
I am amazed that people are amazed by this, it seems like the only possible outcome after the past 4 years.
Set in motion when that fool won.
It wouldn’t be this bad were it not for 2.5 years of fake accusations about Russian collusion followed by the revelation the fbi falsified evidence to spy on political opponents in violation of the constitution and then an attempt to remove a political opponent from office without bipartisan support and without any first hand evidence. And let’s not forget that a sixteen year old child was portrayed as an evil racist from a carefully edited video causing celebrities and famous people to wish death upon him, and the rushing tide of people who believed two maga hat wearers tied up and mugged Jussie smollett. All occurring in the same four year timeframe.
@@Itsunclegabby Dude, trump didn’t get elected for nothing. These people were already tired of it. Obama’s second term is what really drove up the rhetoric of republicans are all racist, etc. They were fed up.
@@jtfike I just can't indulge this kind of thing anymore. It is one crazy alternate reality you all live in. While you perfect your excuse making, your cult leader is burning your house down. When you are standing in the ashes, he is going to come to you with his hand out again telling you that you have to pay for it --- because you love him and *you know* he is the only man who can rebuild your life (the life *he* has burned to the ground). *That* is what you are supporting. You all are his marks. He has been conning you for years and he continues to play you *only* so that he can keep your wallets open for him while he sets his sights on his next con. I am sorry but I am finding it inexcusable that you all *still* haven't figured this out; that you just *cannot* seem to get your head around *the most obvious con man in the world* . What else does he have to do? *Any* support of this treasonous criminal is simply monstrous.
@@ralegade7710 You're right about one thing: He wasn't elected for nothing. What happened last night - that was set in motion a long LONG time ago.
I've been a person of color all my life. We're fully freaking aware that not all Republicans are racist, but if you vote for someone who has racist ideals, tell me WHAT DOES THAT MAKE YOU?
Also, Dr. Grande, I have listened to very many of your videos! WELL DONE! It is actually quite soothing to listen to traumatic things in a "matter of fact" way.
"Welcome to the party pal!"
Sums their arrogance and denial of his actions pretty succinctly. . .
Dr Grande that was a sad analysis. I hope everyone is safe. I'm so sorry about the turmoil people are going though. Thanks Dr Grande I hope you and all Americans stay safe.
So kind; thank you. It's good to hear that there are people on the outside who still have compassion for us in the U.S. The most unwell and/or lacking in character among us have drawn the lion's share of attention these past 4+ years. I'm hoping that will eventually change. Small steps make solid progress. Soon we begin the trek back to decorum and decency.
@@DuckyThorn Thank you your all good people like everyone else in the world
The sad thing about this whole affair is what you've said about narcissists: no matter how much one loves them, they don't have the capability to reciprocate.
Thank you for covering this.
Were you saying this about Antifa last summer?
@@dsrtflwr6093 Obvious troll is obvious
@@48917032 Troll's reading comprehension is nil~
It was disgusting to see a video of Trump watching this insurrection unfold on a screen with his family.
They thrive on chaos, this was one of the highlights of his entire life.
They were watching the crowd gather and the speeches before Trump even took the stage.
We need more sane, calm voices like you on these topics.
You're watching The Dr. Todd Grande Experience.
Good one🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just need to get Hendrix in the background, or maybe some serial killer would be more thematic.
My thoughts exactly I’m convinced he’s a secret Rogan fan
Concil by day.
Dr Todd Grande Podcast by night.....all day.
a Black and White Jodi Arias Poster would be Gangster
Soothe me with your level-headed analysis and calming voice. SOOTHE ME.
😂
Did you just yell "sooth me"!? 😂
😄 I love this
I thought you said Smooth me. Same feeling as sooth to me. I know- Dr Grande is cool and relaxing
Thats why were here!!!!
Thank you for putting this into perspective, Dr. Grande.
Great new studio space, Dr Grande! Thank you for the video!
The world is run by narcissistic people, thank you for your insight into this Dr.Grande. Stay safe and may the world find peace and healing for itself. Amen 🙏
Amen & awomen😣
History chooses its actors to suit the times. The actors do not make the times. Always there is a pool of narcissists but only sometimes do they find fertile ground to grow in influence. Now is such a time. We have pains of empire and the certainty of decline and scape goats will be sought out, dragged out into the streets and that could go to very dark places indeed. What happened today will grow worse in the decades ahead. There is worse to come, so buckle up. It's going to be a rough ride.
🙏
Thanks for putting this up. I felt a sense of relief when I saw the notification pop up that you were here with this topic because I knew you would bring some calming clarity to this emotionally draining event.
“If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed” (Adolf Hitler)
That was from Joseph Goebbels. He was minister of propaganda for Adolf Hitler.
I'm surprised there wasn't a crowd crush too. And this is why I stay away from narcissists.
I respect Dr Grande more than ever now. He put his heart into this video.
I love the guy. I wish he was my therapist.
Right?
Same here, he truly did. I watched it three times.
You can tell he is distressed/concerned, yet he is still calm and reassuring. We need more therapists like this in the world. Thank you, Dr. Grande.
Interesting times. Thank you, Dr. Grande for keeping us grounded. Your calm voice is soothing.
I love all your videos. Your analyses are super enlightening. Ive never found anoyher channel that helps me to understand difficult people like yours does.
4 Years before i saw this narcisstic behavior , i was shocked nobody will stop him
Two explosive devices; one at the RNC, damage to the capital bldg, force, threats, violence. Treated like kittens
So agree, “narcissism is nothing to be toyed with”
Yet, that’s all there is. The elections themselves are celebrations of narcissism and orgies of delusion.
@@kevinhornbuckle Sadly, I think this is the reality; this is what we have come to.
@@kevinhornbuckle There are absolutely other states of mind that differ from narcissism. Narcissists will of course be drawn toward positions of power and influence but 'the flame doesn't make the moth' as it were.
@Robin Yabanks Hitler was charming to women and kind to dogs. Your question is like saying 'so you think this guy caused millions of deaths and torture and suffering because he was charming to women and kind to dogs..?'
‘The flame doesn’t make the moth’? The combination of winner-take-all elections (aka first past the post) and capitalist organization of society DOES combine to both manifest narcissism and recreate it. Democrat and Republican parties are united against proportional representation. They want and need the illusion of democracy.
Hey Dr Grande another great video, just love the way you explain.
Thanks so much for providing a thoughtful and knowledge based perspective. 👍
Tina S,your lovely smile can make the news
DR. GRANDE! I was hoping you’d hop in this. Thank you!
He's so calm and restful
I knew he would!
FUCK YEA DR GRANDE
Usually, narcissism is talked about as if it is a phenomenon that only happens within romantic relationships! This is a good video to help people understand, as you say, that "narcissism is a real thing."
We have MANY MANY narcissist in Washington.
When we study about ancient civilizations that considered their leaders as gods, we find this weird and think: "this would never happen nowadays". Well, look at these riot, if this is not worshiping a man, I don't know what is! A lot of things evolved with time, science evolved, technology evolved, but human nature continues the same. "What has been is what will be, and what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun." (Ecclesiastes 1:9)
Brasileiro fã do Dr. Grande? Ainda resta uma esperança rsrs...
Falando em culto à personalidade, gozado como isso só é possível dentro de estados enormes com burocracias gigantescas, como o Império Romano, o Egito Faraônico, a Alemanha Nazista, a União Soviética e, agora, os EUA. Ninguém houve falar nessas doideiras em países pequenos como a Suíça, p.ex., onde existe a coisa mais próxima de uma verdadeira democracia no sentido original da palavra. É a distância enorme entre o poder central e o cidadão comum que propicia a deificação política. Quanto mais inalcançável o trono, maior o fanatismo pelo rei. Napoleão certa vez observou que não importava que ele fosse o imperador da Europa: ele não passava de um cagão para o servo que limpava sua latrina
@@fbxurumela Interessante, eu nunca tinha notado essa relação entre o tamanho do Estado e a deificação política. Faz muito sentido
@@josehenriquefs888 Pode reparar, ninguém deifica prefeito nem vereador, somente de governador para cima. Divindade requer distância, afinal, "santo de casa não faz milagre"
Mas não esqueça a burocracia, ela é fundamental. Tenho um colega que adora história antiga e uma das teorias que a gente discute é sobre a relação entre os escribas e o faraó. Todo mundo só fala dos faraós, mas será que eles mandavam mesmo grande coisa? Quando vc vai ver, eram apenas uma família incestuosa cheia de problemas físicos e mentais. Tudo tinha que passar pelos escribas, os "marajás" do serviço público da época. Quem decidia as coisas eram esses caras
Uma visão alternativa é encarar o faraó como uma espécie de abelha-rainha: aquela criatura gosmenta que a colméia inteira alimenta mas não faz nada além de procriar. E uma estratégia para os escribas se perpetuarem no poder era justamente TIRAR O FOCO de si próprios e jogar todos os holofotes para cima do deus-faraó. Dessa forma eles poderiam continuar mandando sem ninguém reclamar. Nasce faraó, morre faraó, e o escriba continua escrevendo a história que o povo quer acreditar
Pensando bem, Brasília e Washington não funcionam num esquema muito diferente. Todo mundo sabe que quem manda de verdade são as grandes corporações através dos lobistas. Gozado como ninguém sabe o nome deles...
Thank you for making this video, and so promptly. I’m a nurse, with extensive psych experience, and have known Trump is a narcissist before he even spoke about running for president. I have been fearful of this, having him in charge of our country, not just for how his pathology could, and has affected his decisions, but also for how it’s made it possible for him to get GOP leaders, and American citizens to go along with his ideas. I am a Democrat, but I wholeheartedly subscribe to the idea that one doesn’t have to go along with a leader simply because of the side they’re on. It’s shameful how our GOP leaders have backed him from the beginning simply because he labeled himself a Republican, even after attacking some of them, viciously so, during the 2016 campaign! I’ve also been painfully aware that title meant nothing to him, rather he’s been in this for himself the entire time. As a Democrat, I’d sooner vote for a Republican than a Dem that acted like Trump. I still cannot believe there weren’t more Republicans that felt the same way.
Recent subscriber. Great channel!!
The show isn’t over yet.13 more terrifying days to come. The divide fomented by the separate news silos continues to divide the country.
It was a no-brainer Clinton should have won. His pathology alone was reason enough to reject him in 2016. It boggles the mind that the Republicans nominated him.
Gotta run from personality disorders in power!! Seriously myopic, lacking empathy, awareness and don’t know when to stop.
Again as always I appreciate your neutrality and logically way of presenting topics like these. It’s very soothing in a crazy world like this. Thank you for being sane 😄
Love the new set up Dr.Grande!!!
Love the new background. And the truth is always what I want to hear.
Thx Doc
Love the new studio!
I don't care for it. Too Charlie Brown, ha.
@@almo7189 all it needs are a few small plants, cool coffee mug and a pic of a cute dog...it is brand new so let's see! 🙃👍🐶
@@aking4766 a fuzzy blue couch would actually go kinda nice
Eew, green screen - I prefer ye olde gaudy office :)
I’d like something with a little humour to adorn his new setup - something to match his subtle and delightfully droll comments within his analyses. A Marx Brothers statue, a Monty Python or Far Side print, Munch’s Scream, but Regardless I sure do appreciate Todd giving some insight into human behaviour.
(I’ve been worrying about the little speaker falling off the granny table, or private work showing on the screen, so the change is good.)
The only thing missing is Dr. Grande coffee cup merch on the desk.
With his face on that mug. Silently judging you. Lol
If he can add an address ill make one I own a business and that's what I do. Mugs by miranda im on Facebook
I would so drink from that cup every day for the rest of my life.
It's the most boring of merch
@@stacyyoust Yeah underwear would be more exciting
Sorry, part of my comment, for some reason, was cut out. Here the original comment:Dr. Grande. Thank you for your interesting thoughts. One thing that could be added is that people with narcissism, especially when under stress or obtaining a narcissistic injury (i.e.,they don't get their way), will often decompensate into the formation of persecutory delusions, invoking primitive defense systems such as disowning projection and splitting. In this case, it appears that the persecutory delusion was in the form of a conspiracy of "liberals" who deliberately rigged and stole the election process "against him". For those that are not familiar, the definition of a delusion is that of a fixed, false belief, that is essentially impermeable, despite contrary evidence.This process could also be applied to cult leaders, radical Neo-political groups, and, possibly, very dangerous people such as Adolf Hitler, all of whom may not be particularly dangerous if not that their delusion is taken on by others, many of whom likely have a vulnerable and perhaps similar personality structure, in what I believe is known as a "Shared (or Induced) psychotic/deluaionsl disorder", which is actual psychiatric diagnosis (ICD-10 F24). In my opinion, this is what makes narcisstic delusions potentially more dangerous that what most might think of those coming from someone with a predominant psychotic disorder, e.g. schizophrenia, whose more bizarre (implausible) delusions are not as believable. Perhaps educating the public of these processes in one way that could keep these from these events to continuing to occur.
Yes Dr. Grande!!!!!! I was so hoping you would speak on this.
