Having enough conversations with narcissists over the years I've come to realise that there's often a sort of rhetorical pattern involved in twisting anything a person says in order to portray them in a negative light.

For example if you support privacy rights, then it's because you hate children (ie. because CSAM, etc), or the like. Politicians do it all the time.

Some people are absolute suckers for that sort of manipulation, because they're swayed by their emotions rather than rational critical thinking ability. I think that's why you have the phenomenon of "white liberal women" (and their simps), since that sort of emotional gullibility is an extremely female characteristic, and when mixed with an inordinate degree of empathy, makes them easy to brainwash and manipulate.
