nice slipping that trump quote in there.. considering the points made here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16624971 makes you wonder the credibility of the entire article.
Narcissists often use this tactic when they don’t understand what another person is saying. Rather than admit they are confused, they pretend that what the other person is saying is beyond belief. This is an attempt to dismiss valid concerns.
For example, "I wish you wouldn't be so loud at night when everyone's trying to sleep."
Possibly 1 and 2. Playing on the emotion of guilt, and making it seem like everyone is against the noise making. But, it's a legitimate request, and, in reality, not poorly delivered.
And that's about as mundane and simple an example critique I could come up with off the top of my head. Most critiques are going to be much more nuanced than that. You may think that my interpretation is ridiculous, and no one would believe the requester was actually narcissistic, but in my experience many people will find any justification not to correct their own misbehavior, and if there's an easy way to rationalize someone else as a narcissist they'll do so.
Which is why I think this sort of thing simply requires discernment.
