Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

There's many leaders through history who are assumed to have NPD, including business leaders. It's a "disability" that allows for one to have no issue manipulating others. It can be very beneficial if you don't care about personal relations and only care about gaining power and influence.
Power and influence within society ARE personal relations. People with NPD are socially disabled, they can't compete with neurotypicals on an even playing field when it comes to the sorts of skills that win elections. There's no such thing as a disability that makes people better at socialising, that's a myth. Doctors diagnose problems, they don't diagnose "being great at stuff".
