Amo baja sija? Kabootan na

Much
has been said about wolves in sheep’s clothing but there are people around who
really master the craft of being pretentious. These deceptive individual’s
attack their prey because they simply enjoy the deed, have mental illnesses or
just evil.
Deception
refers to the act—big or small, cruel or kind—of encouraging people to believe
information that is not true. Lying is a common form of deception—stating
something known to be untrue with the intent to deceive. This according to
Psychology Today.
A
large body of research identifies three major reasons why people lie: to get
something they want, so-called instrumental reasons; to protect or promote
themselves; and to harm others. Avoiding punishment may be the main motivation
for both children and adults.
But
with intentional deception, it boils down to being selfish. These people do not
mind the well-being of others. They only protect themselves and continue
enjoying the things that they like make others irrelevant or merely pawns in
their game.
The
Newport Institute published: Pathological liar signs can be symptoms of
obsessive-compulsive disorder, antisocial personality disorder, borderline
personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, and Munchausen
syndrome by proxy.
Narcissistic
Personality Disorder manifests as arrogant and self-centered behavior with
little regard for other people’s feelings (Robb-Dover, 2021).
By
simply looking at these behaviors, we can infer that these people pose harm and
muddle with the desirable actions and value-systems of the society.
If
untreated and un-intervened, they might thrive and convince us that circles
have sides.
