- Make achievements and talents seem bigger than they are.
- Be preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate.
- Believe they are superior to others and can only spend time with or be understood by equally special people.
- Be critical of and look down on people they feel are not important.
- Expect special favors and expect other people to do what they want without questioning them.
- Take advantage of others to get what they want.
- Have an inability or unwillingness to recognize the needs and feelings of others.
- Be envious of others and believe others envy them.
- Behave in an arrogant way, brag a lot and come across as conceited.
- Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office.
Question away..... in a mainly wet summer the questions have dried up, and those with loaded 'guns' have quickly retreated into the shadows when a dialogue begins?Quote:

Also, if I am being brainwashed, then it shouldn't be too difficult to prove that. You have no shortage of backers, fire away...:thumbup:
No offence it sounds as if you have plenty of those traits . Makes perfect sense now:hehe:Quote:

Thanks for the heads up and I’ll bear it in mind in future and give you a swerve :hehe:
Rent Free My Lord :hehe:
The thing was, it was Wales-Bales displaying all those traits in this thread, but you couldn't resist chipping in. Looking forward to that swerve though!Quote:

I don't have views, only timelines, and they speak for themselves.Quote:

You can post the view of the person you heard it from, or a link, your call.
I construct my own timelines using various sources of data and then I apply logical reasoning.Quote:

You don't understand, all data points are assigned logical values and there is zero emotional attachment. Your assertion would only make sense if I was getting all of my information from a narrow band of biased media outlets, which is what most people actually do.Quote:

You have so much confidence in your opinion. So much that you dare not discuss it openly!Quote:

While you try and gather enough 'gunpowder' to blow the lid off your thoughts, here is a real debate from two people who DID turn up. This will allow those who did buy popcorn for our debate to partly justify their purchase....

It's not an opinion, they are weighted three-valued logic data points applied to many sources of information over time. I unravelled the Russia collusion hoax fairly quickly, yet others who were glued to CNN and Rachael Maddow still couldn't work it out after six years!Quote:

Well, you could try some System Dynamics data modelling if you are up to it, but that's a GIGO system that could be manipulated to reach a desired outcome, which is probably why some people like it.Quote:
