For #narcissism there seems to be nothing. No screening, not treatment, not even a prevalent discourse. As if was not even a problem to solve; as if it almost did not exist.
I can't help suspect it's because this group are so useful in #kyriarchy systems of control.
The excessive need to "climb the ladder", and the lack of genuine empathy, make them excellent managerial class construction material.
Just add "career prospects" and you have yourself a useful little 'smug pawn'.

I have all sorts of ideas for projects I don't have time to do (particularly because I haven't won the lottery), but one would be making a tallysheet of how many war criminals and other deeply unethical people that are alums of the world's top universities.

@Photo55 You mean it does not equate but uses it as an example?
I think there are at least some feminists that equate them. I often see people (i.e. on fediverse) using "patriarchy" like a catch-all for "the system".
I guess that's why the term "#kyriarchy" exists. -
"UCSD professors wanted money to research telepathy. They turned to Jeffrey Epstein.
‘I don’t have a problem with my lab being funded by Epstein,’ one wrote to another."
"In 2017, Ramachandran and two other UCSD professors, Paul Mills and Deepak Chopra, the famous New Age author, were launching a study of autistic children thought to be savants. They had a particular interest in one provocative claim — that some might have telepathic abilities."
Nope, Academia doesn't have any systemic problems at all, nope.

@KatyElphinstone Isn't this a variant of the old prejudice that #aspies lack emotions? I haven't actual heard that one in a while now, which I take as society making some small progress.
Now I think both these prejudice mainly stem from god old #kyriarchy, but despite that I'm going to give the benefit of the doubt to however spreads both of these as I think there's at least one more thing to consider.

"Title IX Compliant Botany: A Culturally Responsive Curriculum"
Given the hellscape in the US for at least the last year, it's a relief to see something like this get published. I don't have full access to it, but this and other chapters in the book are just a relief to see people TALKING about, whether I think they're great chapters after I've read them or not.

Nothing like seeing the org that stiffed me for the panel & workshop I organized on ableism and accessibility ask for people's DEI work bona fides when applying for a travel grant.

I wonder how different the world would look now if women hadn't been pushed out of computing (given how toxic masculinity and all that goes with that rides in along with that is more likely to be in a male-heavy field)? #USpol #Kyriarchy

And now for something completely different, but also not!

You're allowed to like what you like, but you also might want to think about *why* you like it, once in a while.
Don't gotta write essays if you don't want to or show anyone else, just be aware of your own thoughts.https://bsky.app/profile/mxverda.bsky.social/post/3lt2ejlrkck2c

LAST #PrideMonth thought
the billionaire mafia want a #famine in places like #Texas, to sell #slavery as the only solution; when just issuing more farming visas is the rational one:
https://www.reuters.com/business/immigration-raids-leave-crops-unharvested-california-farms-risk-2025-06-30/thank Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer for selling out #immigration reform for the gay billionaires’ marriage wishlist. guys like Tim Apple didn’t want #CIR even for migrant gay spouses, so they paid for the #SCOTUS decision.

"When we talk of “white men” we are describing an institution."
- Sara Ahmed, White MenIf you haven't read Sara Ahmed, you're missing out.
Her essay "White Men" goes a long way to making sense of how institutions work, and how their behaviours diverge from their stated mandates.
I read this essay 8 1/2 years ago and I have never stopped thinking about it.

MAGAzuelans have become the perfect victims of not just #kyriarchy, but the typical racist and classist triangulation of latinamericanos by the USA political aristocracy.
this 2021 article fails to explains one important detail:

https://nacla.org/venezuelan-american-trump-votersChávez wasn’t a fascist seeking to protect the old-colonial money interests. that’s why he can be easily vilified as a DICTADOR and not called a CAUDILLO… 🧵

#DemocraticParty fascistlites are playing a dangerous game of chicken; thinking they can let Trump burn down the country for the next year, and then swoop in as saviours after the 2026 midterm elections.
and their strategy is to triangulate #kyriarchy to muscle out the progressive youth of the party.
fuckers have a smear campaign against David Hogg, who famously won a #DNC vice-chairship and declared his mission to primary mediocre incumbents in “safe” seats:

"Social psychology has found that:
The more you reward people for doing something...
the more they lose interest in whatever they had to do, to get the reward."
(Which makes a bit of a mockery, I feel, of both our education and employment systems.)

New instance, new #introduction. Edit: I have supplemented this introduction with replies to this post.
I see this instance has a *nice* *long* character limit for posts.
I have a Ph.D. in Human Science (2016, Saybrook University), which is about the experience of being human in social contexts. It is the mother of the social sciences but is now, at least in the English speaking world, and at least as far as I can tell, a dead field.
I studied #conservatism for my #dissertation. And yes, the #Democrats are far too #conservative for me.
Once upon a time, a very, very long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I was a computer programmer. It was the wrong career choice.
I am a #vegan #LibertarianSocialist (recovering #anarchist) mostly from the #SanFrancisco #BayArea in #California, presently residing in #Pittsburgh, #Pennsylvania, hoping to move to #erie
In #kyriarchy, I mostly focus on #classism and #ageism, but since arriving in Pittsburgh, have been confronted with blatant #racism (and yes, many white people here do see it). But #SocialJustice has to be for everybody; to focus on any one identity, to the exclusion of others, is nothing more than to elevate that identity over that of the predominantly wealthy white males who are now in charge.
I oppose all #imperialism and #SettlerColonialism, not just U.S. and NATO imperialism and settler-colonialism. Having lived on the underbelly of #capitalism most of my life, I am #anticapitalist and ferociously opposed to #neoliberalism. I oppose physical and structural violence.
Human beings have #HumanRights. These rights are not constrained by their governments' failures to ratify certain human rights treaties.
#Borders exist to mark off territory controlled by elites whose competition accounts for most if not all wars and to deny human beings on the "wrong" side of an arbitrary line rights and privileges available on the "right" side. This cannot be justified ethically. I am hostile to #xenophobia
Finally, I am pessimistic about the future of humanity. #COVID19 and the #ClimateCrisis demonstrate our unfitness for survival.

CW: white supremacy USpol
Of the ten most deadly mass shootings of 2023 thus far, three have been in the first seven days of May.
This is #tensegrity. This is floating compression. Rather than collapse, tensegrity structures harness gravity, becoming all the more robust.
This is hetero-patriarchal #SettlerColonialism. #Whiteness ain't just about white people. Whiteness is socially and politically constructed norms and values—that justify harm.
This is #kyriarchy. Dominance. Oppression. Submission.

#ForMeBeingVegan is a form of both compassion, resistance and political boycott in a society that tortures and kills sentient beings when it is possible to do otherwise. It is also a reminder that many situations of domination and abuse of power have the same root, call it #powerarchy or #kyriarchy, that, at the same time, links all kinds of #oppressions and links all types of activism against these same oppressions. As I am #vegan to counter #carnism, I am #antiracist against #racism, #feminist against #patriarchy, etc.
