NPD and autism both run in My family. I have NPD and autism and I was abused by My primary caretaker because of her neurodivergence. She had (and I wouldn't say this if I weren't tilted by the slur in the OP) "malignant untreated autism". By which I mean, she had language difficulties with My new name and pronouns, and the constant noise she needed for her sensory issues provoked My sensory issues.
It is possible for the ND community to all get along and work against neuronormaty. But it'll never happen while autistic pickmes are out here demonising NPD.
Are you trying to make narcissist a slur like boomers?
The boomers would never do something so based
Are you a troll? They literally have been boomers saying it's a slur and maybe they can't help it with the damage from all the lead.
Post source or it didn't happen.
