There's so much information about narcissism in the last ten years or so. Some psychologists have called it an epidemic. If you have encountered these people, you know that nothing you do can make it better. There is no appeasing these people. If you're kind, they run over you. If you try to defend yourself against their cruelty, they flip it around and say that you're at fault. Literally the only thing you can do is to avoid them. Except now people are starting to go "no contact" with family for petty reasons, like disagreeing on politics or being ashamed their parents are not very successful in life. The amount of people idolizing Gypsy Rose for killing her mother instead of running away etc is kind of telling. First came divorce, now children and parents are separating. I've came across the line of thinking that children are owed everything because they didn't ask to be born yet they don't owe their parents any type of relationship or connection. It's all completely backwards from how things use to be: that family was the most important thing, wanting to be there for your parents because they raised you etc. I know things weren't perfect in the past but I don't see how society can survive being this ruthless literally everyone for themselves. If the next generation doesn't have kids how will their be cousins, aunt's etc. I'm sure they will create some AI bots to try and "solve"the problem. Anything but get to the root of the problem. Even in the nineties families had get togethers not many do anymore. Virtually no one takes care of their elderly. Yet everyone fake cares so much about social justice or brags about loving dogs more than humans, and that people need to go extinct so that nature can thrive. It used to not be like this
