But the fact that he has supporters on the internet point out how he made public donations to the ACLU makes me begin to think maybe he is a narcissist.
Edit: I mean this specifically in the context of narcissism being a condition where a person tries to control the image others see of himself. Being able to make strangers say, "He's not a narcissistic asshole, he donated to the ACLU!" makes me think that's specifically an image he tried to project of himself onto others and succeeded for some.
But I don't know the man, so I'd rather think it was just a donation.
I don't exactly call this situation "controlling his image"

Sorry for the amp link - but maybe slightly look into things before posting. I don't think hed've ever said a damn thing about it if somebody didn't go "well why don't you donate to them"

So this all spawned from a Twitter thread in which he starts off with a link to a song by a band he likes and then says, "I hope the kids are ok." You've convinced me he is a full-blown narcissist, thank you.
If you wanted to change my mind, you failed at, "maybe slightly look into things before posting." Change your attitude and word usage when you engage with an already-neutral comment.
Absolutely breaking HN rules here, RIP me, but you're fucking insane and your mind wasn't going to be swayed any other way to begin with lmao. Impossible to tell how you've gotten to the point you are with that line of thinking, but I'd suggest seeking help for it. That's just outright toxic.
A narcissistic asshole would atleast make it known or brag about it when doing so :)
