👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more unfiltered conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Why do narcissists suddenly explode with rage? What triggers these outbursts, and how can you spot the signs before it happens? In this powerful interview, psychologist and narcissism expert Richard Grannon breaks down the psychology behind narcissistic rage — from subtle manipulations to shocking public meltdowns. Grannon explains his unique tool, the Smiling No Test, designed to catch covert narcissists — the ones who act kind, woke, or virtuous but hide a darker, controlling side. These are the “nice-acting narcissists” who can infiltrate families, friendships, and even entire movements. But what happens when you refuse to play along? That’s when the rage surfaces. In this interview, you’ll discover: What exactly sparks narcissistic rage and why it’s so destructive. How to use the Smiling No Test to expose covert abusers. Why woke activism, CRT, and DEI often attract narcissistic personalities. The links between narcissism, virtue signalling, and power. How to protect yourself if you think someone in your life is a narcissist. 🔥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MU5bMVROz6I&t=174s From Meghan Markle to Greta Thunberg, Grannon argues that some public figures show the traits of “nice-acting” narcissists — smiling while shaming, controlling while pretending to care. Could it be that many of our cultural icons are driven less by compassion and more by ego and rage? Richard Grannon, widely known for his appearances on Triggernometry and his insightful YouTube channel, has become one of the internet’s most trusted guides to understanding narcissism and the dark triad. His work helps people recognise when they’re being manipulated — and gives them tools to fight back. This conversation will make you look differently at the people around you. Is that friend who always plays the victim really masking control? Could your colleague’s virtue signalling hide a darker agenda? And most importantly — are you prepared for what happens when a narcissist finally explodes? #narcissism #narcissisticrage #richardgrannon #wokeculture #darktriad #psychology #hereticsclips Learn more about your ad choices.
