She will never allow herself to admit that she is the common denominator in all the flak she receives and the dramas she’s involved in - even with this new episode, which involves criticism from a wide and varied audience of people who don’t know or care about her. It can’t be interpreted as trolling or bullying, it’s just an instinctive reaction by a vast swathe of people with fresh eyes and cold homes, seeing someone behaving like an utter tosser and calling them out on their crass bullshit.
She has created so many self-serving layers of gaslighting, narrative manipulation and fake-humility, but none of that works in this instance. I think if she admitted to herself that she was the problem, she would probably have an episode of complete mental disintegration. But, luckily, she’s a narcissist and they just aren’t capable of that level of introspection and culpability. This won’t change her at all. I really look forward to the “honest heart to heart”/“what’s been going on”/“we need to talk” apology video in which she is neither honest nor apologetic.
She’s been desperately trying to gaslight people in the comments of that tiktok video, trying to divert the narrative by protesting that the heating crisis is not her fault, and people are just coming right back at her asking what the hell she’s on about. She’s trying so hard to reframe the whole thing in the comments in real time, and is just digging an even deeper hole. It’s a classic narcissist trait to think you can literally get away with anything, and it must be baffling for her to see her attempts failing so spectacularly.
I imagine that her angle when she addresses this will be along the lines of “I find it fascinating that people always want to find someone to blame”and probably some reference to cancel culture too. Rather than just taking responsibility for her own sordid little mess. Meanwhile, there are now millions of comments and articles out there, trashing her for being a tone-deaf, ignorant fool. Which, I think we can all agree, is rather cheering.
