Evo-Psych and Narcissist are Free Again

Thanks for these. Especially the book on Narcissists. My wife is the daughter of a narcissist mother (and she’s the “scapegoat”) and your book along with several of the online resources for children of narcissistic mothers (like this one http://echorecovery.blogspot.com/ ) have helped her understand her mom (who is thankfully dead now) and why her family sucks … and helped her to get beyond much of it.

As interesting as r/K is for explaining the “whys” of the left, the Narcissism and “liberalism as a variation on NPD” are actually more useful for actually doing battle with the left.

Been having fun putting your amygdala tweaking tactics into practice with liberals both online and in person for the last year or so.

Hey AC,

what do you think of CSR theory as a refinement of r/K? I read a bit about it from an author named Grimes. Roughly, a third category is proposed called C (in the theory S corresponds to what we call K). C organisms are larger than Ks, reach sexual maturity rapidly, have more offspring than K but less than R (as well as lifespans intermediate between R and K), and are highly territorial and enterprising, seeking to capture and monopolize resouces. The idea is that there is a tradeoff between reproducing, maintenance, and expansion to exploit new resources which a C does. Capybara, Alpine marmot, and European Harvest Mouse are the examples I found of C, S, and R, but I couldn’t find info about the social habits of these animals.
