The appeal of narcissism. Most people would look at that sentence and react negatively to it. Saying narcissism doesn't and shouldn't appeal to anyone on account of how many people over the span of human history are hurt by people that believe in it. Who are it.
What those people ignore though is that all of our societies prime people to see narcissism as appealing.
Not just for the fame and fortune but the emotional aspect people THINK is inherent in narcissism. /1
