Pretty much defines every Leftist here.
Most Conservatives object and fight narcissism by highlighting the implications on society.

1. Read the "about me" of any Lefty here - they want to change the World with their clips? Laughable. They think they're blogs are important and usually have some self absorbed relationship with cats.

2. Not preoccupied with, but motivated by: Leftists usually clip pictures of Bush with the quote: "An Idiot is a genius to another idiot". This is a display of narcissism that not only defeats their own cause but reveals their indifference to others. Indifference to others - Ultimate narcissism.

3. Humility is the diving force of wisdom. Argument the driving ...

Next I predict he will explode all over the forums with a lot of sound and fury, and then he will hit the proverbial materialistic bottom and then slink away.

I wonder what brings on such a repulsive disorder as this? Is is genetic or acquired? Is it self-inflicted through sheer arrogance, self indulgence and mega-maniacal immaturity, or is it a result of brain damage caused by say f.ex.... unbridled alcohol abuse? Hmm, I wonder...

unbridled alcohol abuse
Interesting, if this was a dig at someone here on clipmarks, as I believe it was.

Were not you the one who totally flipped out when another clipper had their personal life (that they publically disclosed) thrown at them in an insultive manner?

Not very personal when you announce it to the world. Not that I would use or condone the use of that particular factoid on any discussion. There is really no need for it. But hey, thats just me!

Sounds like a victim of the disorder.

Look what happens when the intention is devious.
How many of the elements of the disorder are at work in the mere posting of the clip? (In a passive-aggressive manner, of course)
There was obviously a target, a negative intent to attack in a backhanded fashion.
And true to the hypocrisy evident in the recent spate of self-serving, mutually admiring stroking regarding the "clipmarks family" and the belonging and goodwill, (gag) ,everything is fair game as long as the socialist-progressive-Christian hating majority agrees.
Talk of differing opinions sounds good in a group where the majority of that group is the real world minority. Of course they do not at all live up to it. In a rare instance...

Well, I'm happy to give you yet another opportunity to be a hypocrite but I don't have all day every day to follow every clip. If I wasn't on time to this one, well it shows what a loser you are that you find it a point to criticize that I didn't catch it when it was entered.Thank you for noticing that I wasn't on the button with this one.
I take that as recognition

Pehaps you will enumerate them for us. I have a life. Passive-aggressive or assuming your paranoia correct, polite? You say tomato, I say tomato.

True to form, the leftist/socialist who portrays as emotionally evolved, reasoned and reasonable ~ again proves to be all but.
True to form, the reactionary fundamentalist who attempts to prove intellectuality by holding dogma above logic finds the harsh light of day caustic, cold, frustrating and disapproving of his effort.

I take that as recognition

Well, obviously dry humor is lost in type, but you wouldn’t have laughed anyway, I’m sure.

How can it be "correct"?
IIt's an image as in art. If you are talking about "correct", that is an issue of whether or not thai ship is really sinking.
That is irrelavant.
What matters is that it is an image of an American ship sinking.
There, the symbolism is obvious. It isn't a matter of truth. It's whether one agrees or not.
One might symbolize present reality as the ship sailing upright and sturdy, but mutiny and chaos upon its decks.
It is imagery which is only "true" to the individual.

Moral absolutism. The "I" and the "We" are always right, the "Other(s)" is/are wrong, not based on words or action, but on philosophical/political/cultural association. And in five minutes I bet you that "someone" will try to accuse me of the doing just that. Although I have only shown that tendency (the moral absolutist one) but once in all my months here at Clipmarks. Well, twice, but no more....

That's quite a subjective view. Probably due to NPD.

especially favourable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her

What are your needs, exactly and how does that fit with you trolling around here? Or wait you feel the need to be troll and I have to accommodate that? Interesting?

Unlimited power, brilliance? Nope, just good memory.

Also repeating yourself and putting things out of order is not conductive to good analysis.

All I can say is "the guilty flee when no man persuith."

The clip was just a commonplace factoid, of use here and there in discussions of the phenomenon itself.

When He Who Shall Not Be Named chose to take it personally, "knowing" that it "had" to be aimed at him - that's a diagnostic critera.

"It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt."
