THOUGHTFUL-THURSDAY: THE DARK TRIAD PERSONALITY OF THE DARK
KNIGHT by e.graham
Today, we will be discussing the DARK TRIAD, which consists of
the 3 personality traits, which include Narcissism, Machiavellianism, and
Psychopathy.
1. NARCISSISM derives from the Greek mythology story of
Narcissus, which is about a hunter who falls in love, becomes obsessed with his
reflection in a pond of water, and eventually drowns. Psychologically, this
person is selfish, arrogant, lacking empathy, boastful, and sensitive to
criticism and insults. 2. Next, is MACHIAVELLIANISM, which originates from the
famous Niccolo Machiavelli, a 16th-century politician and diplomat from Italy,
who is associated with manipulation, self-interest, lack of emotion, absence of
morality, and deceit.
And, finally, 3.
PSYCHOPATHY, a personality associated
with antisocial behavior, being manipulative, expressing volatility, lacking
empathy, and being without remorse. They are emotionally cold and impulsive,
prone to taking significant risks. (Source: SimPsy)
As one tries to grasp those concepts, remember it was comedian Kat Williams, who joked, "If you want to know, who your greatest ENEMY is; look right next to you."
But, with that said, could you spot a person displaying
these DARK TRIAD TRAITS?
Why? Because, most of them are chaotic beings, cold and
callous, engaging in relationship restlessness while seeking sensation. For,
they love drama. They also have a deep affection for spreading lies and
creating arguments due to their destructive spirit, which is based upon the
principle of "DIVIDE & CONQUER."
Remember, for them, CONFRONTATION is VINDICATION
Why? Because they HATE peace and are stimulated by
negativity.
But, from the outside, looking in, they look, as if, they
have the perfect life or the perfect wife. However, despite being married, they
are unhappy, never wanted to have children, and have the willingness to engage
in unrestricted sexual relationships or causal sex with strangers with no fear
of obtaining sexually transmitted diseases or being caught.
Despite this, however, their partner or spouse, unfortunately, develops traumatic bonds with these individuals, who, subtly; over time- after a cycle of abuse, trickery, and "love-bombing" convince them not to divorce them or leave them.
For this reason, one of the greatest examples of a TRAUMATIC
BOND is the partnership between Batman, who represents JUSTICE & ORDER
& The Joker, who symbolizes an
unpredictable force of CHAOS. For, the Dark Knight can't exist without him.
Why? Because, they are internally connected, and linked eternally together.
This is similar to the legend of God vs the Devil within the
Biblical text. Which, is the duality of the soul dancing together. For, one has
often asked, "Why doesn't God just kill the Devil? Or, "Why doesn't
Batman just kill the Joker?
Because, the Joker possesses the Dark Triad Personality
Traits of Narcissism, Machiavellianism, and Psychopathy that were discussed at
the beginning of this article along with Batman.
Understand, with caution, that this Dark Triad personality is, usually, stems from dysfunctionality created in the home and toxic relationships formed outside of it. So, they desire short-term interactions instead of long ones, which they often sabotage as a way to deal with or not to deal with their possible fear of failure or abandonment issues.
However, due to their Machiavellianism, they, often, have a
victim-blaming spirit and project a lot of their imperfections onto other
people. So, they manipulate them to gain power, remain in power and to feel
loved. (PART TWO COMING SOON) AT THE SAME BAT CHANNEL. (Sponsored by the Brains
