This Is How the Most Powerful 1% of People Deal With Manipulators
The Easiest Way to Exert Your Authority over a Narcissist
It really is the worst when a narcissist plays victim by sticking a key into someone’s back, winding them up with lies and letting them go to see how much carnage they will inflict.
Powerful people make everyone laugh at the narcissist with how they expose their manipulative tactics.
If a narcissist has been trying to gaslight them under the radar when no one else is around, a powerful person will expose a narcissist by dropping their foul behaviour into the conversation disguised as a punchline.
This might seem a bit cruel, but the only true way to stop a narcissist’s lies from turning everyone against you is to expose their behaviour in such a way that you look charismatic, or even heroic. Anything but crazy.
To do this, you must make two power moves:
1. Assume that the narcissist is already gossiping, twisting and backstabbing.
2. Remember that they are completely dependent on your secrecy. Without it, they will be exposed, and what they do in the dark will be brought to light.
But they didn’t swear you to secrecy, and you never signed an oath in blood…
