How to be egoistic Videos

Well said.

Sam, I was involved with a Narcissist in a very abusive "sexless marriage" 25 years. I found that even though I had 2 heart attacks and struggling with CRPS/RSD she gave me an ultimatum to shape up by the summer or I'm out! Within the first two weeks of kicking me out she already had 3 different penises in her. Sam she hasn't had a sex drive for the entire 25 year marriage (begged for intimacy on my wedding night) and she takes an SSRI to be sure. She wants a property settlement of 75/25.

Sam love the dog analogy. I have recently experienced the "devaluation and discarding" phase of the nar.1 day, I came home & broke down 1 of those "full body" sobs.My dogsm sleeping in another room,came,rushing out,1 sat on my chest, looking around as if standing guard.The other sat at my feet.They sat there at least 1/2 hr until I got up It struck me that these DOGS showed more compassion than my nar., who could not stand crying,would degrade me, walk away, and say "wipe off your face".

I love the book comment, and your reply Sam! You are so honest and it is so refreshing to hear someone not resort to denial! I have so many books that I have not read, that I continually make a 'rule" that I cannot buy any more until I read the ones I have. And I continually violate it! And now I blame you ( :) kidding!) for contributing to my pathology, as now I must buy your book! When I moved, one of the movers said: "gee lady, you sure have lot of books!"

I am begging for your help in dealing with the results of an abusive marriage. I have a disease called CRPS, Complex regional pain syndrome, and a heart condition. I was mistreated by family members, she kept money away from me and would not give explanations, I was constantly being threatened and humiliated, didn't receive proper food or medical attention, was being kept isolated from family, friends and caregivers.

@krstcmjns In the culture that I live in the psychopaths and narcissists rise to the top with lies, slander, antagonism, and manipulation. Everyone's psychological defense mechanisms are running full force: people often identify with the abuser and utilize reaction formation in order to fit into the psychopathic culture. And very few people or groups confront the narcissism with logic and activism.

13:40 to the end is an extremely important point. If you miss this point, you miss the whole message he conveys about narcissists in general. It's a crucial point, and it links narcissists to women, Jews and the English (and to a lesser extent also, their cruder American offshoots). Self-maximisation when optimisation offers greater long-term benefits to them.

I wonder if you could shed some light on my problem of being disabled and abused by a Narcissist caregiver/wife. Sam she has even had me put in jail for completely bogus reasons. We live in a small rural town and everyone knows everything. Most know she is a cluster "B" now because she went out of control in front of the whole town.

Sometimes an asshole is just an asshole. Leave them alone. at some point we have to stop trying to understand hate and learn some common sense.

you've got to love a bookshelf where the space above the books is filled with books on their side.

Sam, I think you're a bit of a hoarder when it comes to collecting books! ;-P

This is one of your best, Sam. "A person cannot be friends with a tree." LOL

A BIT of a hoarder??? A COMPULSIVE hoarder is more like it ...:o))

Shallow people.....makes complete sense...great video again!

This is so interesting..thought provoking.... i loved it...

So could Narcissist be friends with another one?

Narcissist: Team work Grade: F

@StudentOfObjectivism I completely get your point! If you do make one, there is only one point that is REALLY an issue - The grave by-products of systems. --- I had a self declared communist as a philosophy teacher. He would do "applauds" of sorts for communism to which I would respond: Communism is a beautiful idea, however, it won't stay good for all for long given the advantages certain people have within a social context to get more which will break it - eventually.

I was a socialist until one day someone asked me 'by what right and under what sovereignty do you claim my life for your moral cause', not being religious and believing I was a rational person I couldn't answer that question. It was a good many years before I read Rand's work but someone confronting my lack of logical coherency shocked me into actually thinking for myself. It was probably the single most important moment in my life and I wish to thank him for it.

@ChasingCharles So... are you saying that the employment of minors should always be forbidden? If so, you're being a rationalist - you are going from 'children can't always think rationally' to 'no child can decide rationally'. Yes, there is a danger of children making bad decisions - but in third world countries their alternatives are often just starvation on a farm or child prostitution; in a developed country there is little incentive to employ them anyway.

@MyContext Coercion - System By Products: Concern (Possibly Grave) The rules constructed for an interaction of any sort are NOT capsules in time, but have ripple effects for the future. Consider: If people cannot afford to pay for school, that will create an irrational society over time, since, without education people are more prone to accepting irrational ideas, since, intuitions are often wrong about the nature of how things really are...

He misconstrues the Austrian use of the word "rational". The Austrians define it differently than the Objectivists: A man is rational if he is employing means to achieve ends. Austrian economic analysis doesn't care whether the means or end are appropriate. For example, a tribesman who performs a dance to cause rain is acting rationally, but he is doing so based on flawed knowledge.Austrians recognize that people often make poor choices.

@MyContext All I'll say to that is that you should take a look at my video on communism/socialism (on this channel). The short version: once you say "communism is a noble ideal but..." you've already lost the argument. From there, all you have on which to fall back is some pragmatic objection like "men aren't good enough to practice it" (as though the case for freedom is that men aren't good enough for slavery!)

@MyContext Voluntary Taxes: Rejected I agree with the position that people are not utility maximizers. Based on this fact, the idea of voluntary taxes and community sanctions become problematic pretty quickly. I also reject NOT having public schools... Since, the capacities of individuals to make rational decisions (self interest) is NOT a universal capability among us...

@StudentOfObjectivism I am acknowledging that I must re-evaluate my position and the linkages that I am realizing that I have made without due review of the assumptions inherent in those linkages. Since, a proper response demands a review of the linkages for the claim... My linkages seem to be woefully incomplete in this subject area...

@MyContext I don't understand what this comment means. Why did you use a question mark (let alone three). Yes, I think you do need to check your premises. "Extrapolated notions are problematic - aren't they..." Is this line meant to imply that I am having trouble with my own extrapolations? If so, please expand.

23:00 Walmart works as a company because it has mastered central planning and the centralization of local and dispersed knowledge from around the world in the town of Bentonville, Arkansas, despite Hayek's arguments against the possibility of doing that.

@MyContext This will most likely come across as evasive, but I'm going to refrain from arguing with you in these comments. What you have said requires either an essay or nothing; therefore I'm going to register that I dosage and leave it at that.

In effect your argument is this: a private company has succeeded in running an efficient operation, therefore we ought to destroy private enterprise and replace it with central planning.... I grant you that that is an innovative argument.

Overall, I have no issue with what has been presented, however, the following are points of issue... 1) Voluntary Taxes: Rejected 2) Coercion - Scope of Elimination: Concern 3) Coercion - System By-Products: Concern

You have obviously never read Hayek. You have also never understood the distinction between *private planning* of the use of one's own assets and *central planning* of the use of all assets in an economy.

@MyContext Coercion - Scope of Elimination: Concern There was a claim to eliminate coercion - which I can't imagine could ever be the case. However, reducing the pervasiveness of coercion is desirable...

I refer you to Mr. Humpty Dumpty. 'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said in a rather scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less.'"

@StudentOfObjectivism Your framing has left me having to review what I am claiming versus what I reject...??? Extrapolated notions are problematic - aren't they...

@StudentOfObjectivism *Just noticed my massive typo there: 'I'm going to register that I disagree and leave it at that'

I suppose there could be a 'grand fees day' where those who gave the most could get their egos massaged.

+Ralph Romero Same here, find a better place ASAP ! It happened to me a few times, I tried to be patient, to do like in the video (well that was years ago, before the video was published) I tried to listen to them, to support them, so that they become better... and it worked ! only problem was that once they suceeded, they just killed me in my back ! Don't even hang out with people when you feel something suspect that you can't define, even if they play nice, invite you and insist how cool is it !

+Alex Terrel My Friend, in this situation there is only one thing to do; Get The Fuck Out Of There NOW!!! Good luck

+Alex Terrel When he's deep on drugs, call the cops on him. He probably has more than the legal amount of drugs.

It's usually some time before I get adjusted to a way of life. About a week. I know when I move out, I'm not going to automatically be happy no matter what happens, because I'll still need to recover from the life sucking power of my roommate. I don't give him the will to do it, and I don't care, but his lifestyle is.. Very negative and very destructive. That's what kills me. I'm more scared for my safety than destroyed by his negativity.

hes ron jeremys father

+Alan Bourbeau My opinion was Terrible being an negatives Or Cool guy But Being an Postive better Because you Can be a Perfessional or Something Mysterious.

+Mitchell GordonGood for you!!

Good News!!! I moved out on September 17.........Ding, Dong, The Witch is DEAD.....We got into a verbal fight and I finally left!!!!!! Now my rent is $220 more per month, but, no more RULES!!!!

+schwul1956 I'm almost there with my roommate. Lol. He's a major ass. And the head of household is a 50 year old meat head. Bunch of hoodrats. But at the time, this seemed like a good idea, because I got kicked out of my parents and worked with the head of household. He wasn't popular at the time so he was cool. Because he needed me for rides to places. That's it. Long story short, I learned real quick don't follow through with what might seem perfect. Lol. I just needed away from my negative parents house, and was loving the freedom. Now I'm used to it, have a fiancée and a daughter that I need to focus on, but this person makes me dear for my freedom, I can't speak, and he calls me a fing gay slang term, just for reading. It offends me honestly, because he's shitting on me, plus I know he Is absolutely ignorant. I look to change people and make them better. That's my problem. He's stuck in his hood ways. I've praying for a miracle. Lol

+Mitchell GordonYou should find another place to live. Your roommate's negativity eventually will damage his health; if you don't get away from him, then his negativity eventually will damage your health as well.

I wish I could give you some good advice. However, I think you need to tell him that you can't take his negativism and it needs to change or you can't be roommates anymore. I feel sorry for you. Be strong! Hang in there! Wish you the best!

You didn't get the point...

+Leah Crossley my roommate is that way. Always has to bring negativity. Everything about his life is negative, and whenever positivity is introduced he scurries away. I don't get it. Do they not one the side effects? He does. I preach about how it's killing him, and he doesn't budge. I try and try and in that time he has brought me. So it's time to move on. I'm only 21, so I'm moving in with my mother and stepdad to get a help with a new positive, prosperous life. Lol

You're right, Victor. Let me rephrase what I meant. There are people out there who are negative and want help, whereas there are the minority, I would like to believe, who do not. And I was slightly disappointed this video didn't include the ones who wish to change, but the ones who crave the attention of the negativity or are just plain miserable.

pillar to pillocks. 

+Victor Vandablet ass to grass

LOL, great depth there. lol

+Victor Vandablet sure, sounds good.

No, it is!

+Victor Vandablet maybe, but it don't buy the groceries. 

+N. Pike Change is systemic, not and ideal intent. 

+Victor Vandablet Sure. Good Luck with that.

+N. Pike Everybody can wish, if fact we all do it. However, wishing is not wanting change. It is an illusive desire. Change comes about by looking at yourself in a constructive way. E.g.Some people have said, "you are offending me" even though they are 400lb because of the OVER HYPED PC culture. If you are FAT, you need to change (REAL MEDICAL SITUATIONS EXEMPT). 

+Victor Vandablet I agree. let me clarify my position. I think almost anyone with a brain in the head would want to change into a millionaire. Hence who would wish against that said change?

+N. Pike You are wrong. Some people feed off your negativity. They need the constant arguing/negative energy, create problems to maintain their habitual habits.

+Victor Vandablet I doubt that. give me examples.

Some people wish not to change. 

wait.. why do egoist music videos seem so satanic. i love their songs. but this music video is hurting my eyes for some reason.

+Grell Sutcliffe Sounds like a OST from Evangelion actually

You can download it as a single track, it is actually Prelude in their album :D

I can't determine it. Every song is so different from another which make it difficult to analyze IMO

+Shadowkid that is bad cuz you will never hear the drop comes when some1 calling you, if u answer the phone instantly :P

I shall join you in your corner

+RealMatrifox Btw, there are many references to Guilty Crown in this video.Edit : Oh, I just saw that another guy said that in a comment ^^

+RealMatrifox Then we will be 3 crying ok ?

GUILTY CROWN YAAAASSSSS

Thank you :)

+RealMatrifox I will join you ok?

+Charlize Hoang Fly me to the moon <.<

+Sebastian King it would sell more if you could choose the ed and I agree with you ed 1 is best

+Charlize Hoang Nana - Kuroi Namida. It's the single thing i've to say

So True.

+Sebastian King Me too :'(

+Sebastian King lol probably not, but i wish haha xD

I cried when they changed it. Ed2 just didn't get you pumped at the ending like this did, especially when it was dramatic. Are you able to choose the ed if you buy the dvd? # wishful thinking #ed1 is best

+Charlize Hoang you dont say

+CJAdams97 well good thing it's an opinion!1!!1!!

+Charlize Hoang ehhhh nah

It may seem bad at first, but they definitely make it up (in my opinion, dont be taken back the the first episodes and stuff, if you think its like SAO or Log Horizon, its not, well not completely, its getting stuck in a game, but, i dont think the guy gets out considering well, SPOILER there is no more GUI when he gets stuck, and its only one guy (lol) and, well, hes SPOILER a really high level guy like kirito, and hides his power to the humans (and SPOILER he is not human anymore in the 'game' or if it is even a game anymore,)

+MrCilliman Oh, that's pretty short. I might go and watch it this weekend then. If I happen to get addicted to the ED song the same way I am with this one, and Magia, then I'll come back and thank you. :D

+Heir I see, but i think, I THINK its going to be 13 episodes, so its over this week lol

+MrCilliman I've got Overlord in my 'to watch' list. But I've got tons of psychological anime stacked up before I watch anything else. I'll probably not know how good the ED is until next year lol. (I prefer not to watch OPs or EDs on Youtube until AFTER I've heard it in the show). 

+Alex gaffney Not sure if you found the song or not, but it was called 'Magia' not 'Magica', I spelt it wrong originally. I did write a comment saying so weeks ago, but it appears to have been deleted. 

+Charlize Hoang +Heir this ties with the new anime "Overlord" with its ending.

+Charlize Hoang Its a great ending theme, but my favourite is still The Real Folk Blues

Oh, thanks. I'm curently watching Psycho-Pass, but I kinda always skip the endings. ^^"

+Ash Ketchum Psycho-Pass

+Charlize Hoang Which anime is it the ending ?

no i wanted a link to the magica song that heir mentioned 

+Alex gaffney you can use an mp3 converter website to get the mp3 version of this video :)

+Heir Can i have a link to the song i cant find it

+Charlize Hoang It's tying with 'Magica' from Madoka for me. That ED is just too much.

+Kristóf Németh you could say so, as her seiyuu is who sings

+Abel S Kennedy Just with the video, I interpreted it like a girl who died from illness (she seems to wear hospital cloth) and that her teddy bear was here for her until her last moments. Then, in the death, she loses her landmarks and her teddy bear saves her and frees her from her pain by taking a girl appearance. I know, it's a really fantastical way to see it, but it's just an interpretation. :)

I did not interpretate haha, just said what is in the Lyric + Video = a Talk between a Random Person with God.In resumeThe person is lose in the world (not in a lack of money or friends or family or stuff, in a lack of reasons about  what is the World?and why happens all the things?whats the propouse of living 1 day or 105 years old if we lose all?does this awful world is the place we are meant to be?there is another better place after this world? finally the person left God, and lose the faith but says "I want to change my destiny" God says "I'll protect you not matter your sins, just love me" "Do you agree?" so then the person accept but Dies but just die in the actual world,  God Resurrect she, in  a better place Free of sins and Colorful.

+Abel S Kennedy Your comment made me realise something.When I watched this video, I felt there was very little reference to God. I saw the girl in black as her older self, who lets go of her younger innocent self after being exposed to the harsh world outside of her innocent childhood. I saw the video was about her mental growth, not about her acceptance of God.The differences between our interpretations of the video made me realise how much our views of the world affect how we interpret it. You're religious (presumably) and see that if people are lacking something in their life, it's their acceptance of God. I'm non-religious and I see that if people are lacking something in their life, it comes from within i.e I believe in the power of mental strength/growth.Just something I wanted to share :)
