Antagonistic Narcissism Antagonistic narcissism is defined by a sense of competitiveness, arrogance, and rivalry. While all people with narcissistic traits can be overly concerned with how they appear to others, antagonistic narcissists are particularly concerned with coming out βon top." Someone with antagonistic narcissism may try to exploit others to get ahead. They may put others down in an attempt to gain the upper hand or appear dominant.

You're being sensitive. "I will do my best to explain so everyone can understand" was simply meant to include both left and right points of view (everyone, not just conservatives or liberals). Now that I read it, possibly it was condescending. Not my intent. The second point about the infraction du jour is meant to say just what I implied. All of us will defend "our" side through deflection and finger pointing. This is all my opinion, but it's what I see. You: "Are you sure you want to continue dragging this down to the gutter? (I spelled it out for you.)" Me: "You don't have to try to belittle me to make you better."

And for the record, I like @Reagan. But he posts some of the most off the wall stuff. Facts. I'm not disparaging him though. As far as @Big girl is concerned, yeah I probably hit below the belt on that one. I always tried to be fair and nice with her, but her thieving "our" money and bragging about it really gets to me.

Look, it's the talking down crap like the above that I don't get. And believe me, I've done my fair share of it too. Using condescending language is a favorite tool of someone who wants to appear more intelligent or sophisticated or wiser than the one they are facing in a discussion or argument. You're a smart guy, one that in premise I usually agree with. But my disagreeing with something or pointing something out doesn't make you any more or less smart than me. You don't have to try to belittle me to make you better.
