      Honestly, starting to recognize this dynamic more & its kinda scary "I have a need that I cant meet, so I want you all to meet it" Others meeting your needs can be healthy & in fact necessary But forcing others to meet your needs quickly becomes authoritarian & totalitarianhttps://twitter.com/fvathynevgl/status/1364639446533038083 …

      people do these kind of things when they want something for themselves, but are afraid to ask for it, thus... plausible deniability my bet would be on "i am not at the centre of this group anymore / this group's identity diverges from mine too much, and this bothers me"

      If you cannot fill your needs and demand others do so, then people earnestly questioning you become a threat to your needs and you naturally try to defend your needs

      Worse. This mindset Cannot make you grow in any way Your efforts are wasted on changing the minds of others instead of improving yourself. You are trapped in this Shit world

      True Believer by Eric Hoffer discusses how movements -- such as the Nazis -- arise from this kind of thinking These people do not have the slightest belief in themselves nor any power

      They throw themselves into these movements because they want to renounce their pitiful lives and selves and gain what they lack through a mass movement It is not an idiological issue. This kind of person easily switches sides...

      Nazi officers and communist leaders would brag about how they could get people from the other side to come over to theirs These people do not believe nor care about their movement. They care about gaining what they do not have

      Kinda want a term for "I have a need that I cant meet, so i want you all to meet it" way too long to say every time Thinking "Parasitism" is a good one. Highlights how unhealthy this is for others, but doesnt highlight how bad it is for the "parasite" themself
