In you’re daily life do people praise psychotic people or behavior? Most of the time I feel like I’m a psycho that has to work with general public. It’s not like I’m aggressive, I just decide that how a stranger feels doesn’t matter as much as whatever I need.
What is the dark triad? I think I saw it referenced before but I thought it was a comic book villain

Narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism. They sometimes come together labeled as the dark triad. I see Narcissism in a lot of people I know and it can be somewhat ignored. It’s really bad when it mixes with the other two.
My mind wants to break down the concepts into smaller ideas of lack of empathy, not considering morality. I keep thinking machiavellianism is more a descriptor of the politics that Machiavelli lived in. It’s more of a communication thing, it helps to use simpler concepts to convey ideas better.
But psychopathy is definitely a spectrum and it does feel like trying to get another person to like you can be psychotic since it’s manipulation
That feels like more narcissism in my mind
I wouldn’t know the difference. Seems like they overlap so that’s why I would go with description of behavior
