Narcissism is a junk science idea that comes from people with low self-esteem who want to believe people with strong self-esteem are the defective ones. That's why there seems to be a so-called "epidemic of narcissism" going on. It's fake.

Interesting theory! But the science actually shows that self-esteem is different than narcissism:https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/beautiful-minds/narcissism-and-self-esteem-are-very-different/ …

Interesting critique. Would you like to submit something to a scientific journal and see what the reviewers think of that argument? What exactly do you think is bullshit about the science of narcissism? The methodology? How the construct is operationalized? Something else?
