The dark personality types are subsets of one personality type, which preys on the rest of us, and have different brain functioning and methods of motivation and working.
Do PPP also believe they own everything, is it true that they can act as the aggressor and the victim, all depending on the situation, take for example, if they put a child in danger, it is pointed out, they then portray themselves as experts and the child was in no danger at all ? The the child fell, they then blame the child. The child states, I don't want to go there again. The reply is, I thought you liked it ? Yet if something had happened to the child, would they play the victim?
Years ago I bought Professor Lowenstein's book on Parental Alienation, which was a very interesting read, it described Folie a Deux, but not how to deal with the situation. Professor Sam Vaknin talks about NPD, which is different to narcissistic personality, being a disorder. This is a very interesting thesis, using the word predatory, resonates with me, I have only seen what is described as PPP in two people, I kept diaries of these events, to try to understand what was happening. Thank you for the posting, it is very thought provoking on the subject.
Thank you very much for sharing this. I think it’s very timely for this post due to the world we live in. I follow Dr. Mitchell on X and I think she’s excellent. Keep up the good work and thanks for all you do for children.

I have only read her thesis once, and posted so that others can get up to speed, I don't want to speak for what she says.

Thank you for sharing. My first time hearing about Dr. Mitchell. I’ve just downloaded her thesis.

God bless you!
Thankyou, yes I think this will simplify our understanding of these toxic predators, so that we are more prepared to be able to counter them.
