‼️PSA‼️

A toxic/abusive person will try to control you, demand loyalty & limit w/whom you interact.

Ex: Such an abuser will order their unfortunate followers to block or shun another.

When an abusive person no longer controls you they will try to control how others see you.
A friend pointed out, the narcissist abuser uses a carrot & a stick tactic to keep her followers obedient, demanding “loyalty.”

If a follower is “disobedient” the abuser instigates a brutal smear campaign, not only to emotionally abuse that disobedient person, ...
The narcissistic abuser will not only hope to emotionally decompensate its victim, but also use that abuse to serve as a terror tactic to keep its other followers silent as they observe the abuse.

The abuser will even encourage others to join abuse of the abuser’s victim.
