And they're god-crazy ON THEIR OWN TIME. Yet other people who are at least as crazy SET PUBLIC POLICY. FEAR THOSE PEOPLE!!! *apoplexy*

Well, sure, but they wear golden underwear, and visible signs of "NOT LIKE US!!" are far more important than any piddling *actions* that people who don't wear golden underwear might take.

TO CRAZY PEOPLE, yes.

I can only assume that you are here referring to the Mormons. Therefore: word, yo!

Would all the CRAZY PEOPLE like to form an ORDERLY LINE, please? MORMONS, YOU ARE NUMBER FORTY-NINE!

(On a briefly more serious note, they're just such a small concern compared to much bigger groups of patently insane people, like socialists and deep greens and narcissists and anarchists and race-hustlers and so on and so forth, and even plain old fundamentalists of bigger religions, not to mention the Morons, of whom there are vastly more than there are Mormons.

By the time I get far enough down the list of dangers to the Republic to get to the Mormons, I'm all out of worry and can barely muster up the energy for an "enh, whatever".)

Very dangerous, your common narcissist. Apart from such acute self-obsession exerting downward pressure on social cohesion and willingness to contribute to public goods, they're a breeding ground for sociopathy, starting out banal and moving towards malignant.

(Also, quite a few of them appear to have children as a means to their personal fulfillment, and so manage to fuck up the upcoming generation, too.)

ExCUSE me, but your nasty words are filling up the whitespace on my SCREEN, and it's harder to see my REFLECTION in it now. GOD.

...I should have bought you an entire fleet of drinks last month when I had the chance.

The Trouble with Narcissists is that they're by their very nature unwilling to work with others (their inferiors) to get what they want though, isn't it?

Well, a narcissist does have that problem with subordination,, but as long as they can keep up an image of being a leader, a major figure, a Person of Significance in the Struggle, yadda yadda, it can pretty much work, right? Or they can find minions to follow Her Awesomeness, the Maximum Leader.

And even leaving that aside, just because they can't effectively work with each other doesn't preclude emergent effects, anyway.
