“For us, Malvinas is and must always be an absolutely nonnegotiable and inalienable axis of Argentine foreign policy,” said Argentine ambassador in Switzerland Gustavo Martinez Pandiani, who is acting as the foreign minister of presidential candidate Sergio Massa if he were to win the coming elections next October/November.

    But Ambassador Martinez Pandiani insisted , ”the rights that must be respected above all are those of the former combatants, their fallen and their families. They (Mondino and Milei) are asking for the kelpers to be respected, we demand respect for the fallen,“

    Extraordinary statement...unbelievable!

    Germany does not respect its WWII fallen by continuing to claim Poland, in fact linking their claim to Poland BECAUSE of their WWII fallen, and claim Polish people have no say!

    At the risk of invoking Godwins Law, you can't start a war, invade a territory, lose a war, and then continue to claim the territory out of respect of the fallen that you sent in the first place.

    The best way to respect the fallen is to highlight the lie on which they were sent to fight, the Malvinas myth that they have been sold. Then learn from it, and never do it again.

    “territorial integrity.”

    “It is therefore not surprising that the General Assembly declared in 1970 that the modern prohibition against the acquisition of territory by conquest should not be construed as affecting titles to territory created ‘prior to the Charter regime and valid under international law’”

    “based on the principles and objectives of the UN Charter and International Law, including the
    principles of sovereignty, self-determination, non-intervention in matters which are essentially
    within the domestic jurisdiction of States and to refrain in their international relations from the
    threat or use of force against territorial integrity”

    Narcissist Warning Signs

    To a narcissist, everything is a game, and to win at the game, they must make themselves appear as both the victim and the hero. You will become the true victim of conspiracies that will escalate into false allegations that include everything they themselves have been doing all along – projection is a common action of a narcissist; these accusations will be executed with a jarring lack of empathy.

    According to the DSM-5, a person can be professionally diagnosed with Narcissistic Personality Disorder by having at least five of the following characteristics:

    • a grandiose sense of self-importance (i.e., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
    preoccupation with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
    • the belief that they are “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)
    requires excessive admiration

    • a sense of entitlement (i.e., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with their expectations)
    interpersonally exploitative tendencies (i.e., takes advantage of others to achieve their own ends)
    • lacks empathy – unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others.
    envious of others or believes that others are envious of them
    • displays arrogant or haughty behaviors and attitudes

    The link between malignant narcissism, racism and fascism
    Narcissism was linked to fascism by the father of bioenergetic therapy, Alexander Lowen, in his outstanding book, ”Narcissism — Denial of the True Self”

    Envy-The Forgotten Narcissistic Issue

    Of the 7 “deadly” sins that are committed by humans, envy is primarily directed toward the destruction of an external object. Over the centuries, this unfortunate emotion has been the subject of inquiry by many disciplines (philosophy, religion, sociology, fiction, and so on). Among authors in the western philosophical tradition who have pondered the issue, Aristotle first wrote, “We envy those whose possessions or achievements are a reflection on our own. They are our neighbors and equals. It is they, above all, who make plain the nature of our failure.”1 Kant defined envy as a “propensity to view the well-being of others with distress, even though it does not detract from one's own,” and referred to it as “that passion which views with malignant dislike the superiority of those who are really entitled to all the superiority they possess.”

    Bacon, in his ninth essay, Of Envy, considered such “affection” as belonging to “a man that hath no virtue in himself.” In his keen observations, he noted 4 broad categories of envious individuals: “deformed persons, and eunuchs, and old men”; those who “rise after calamities and misfortunes”; those who “desire to excel in too many matters, out of levity and vain glory”; and “near kinsfolks, and fellows in office.”

    Schopenhauer also pondered envy's destructive nature. “The worst trait in human nature . . . is schadenfreude [pleasure taken from the misfortunes of others], for it is closely related to cruelty.”

    “That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.” Christopher Hitchens

    Malignant narcissists display traits and symptoms of both antisocial and narcissistic personality disorder. While both APD and NPD are both types of personality disorders, the symptoms and traits of each disorder are different.1,5

    Antisocial Traits in Malignant Narcissists
    A pattern of violating the rights of others
    Breaking rules and laws
    Deceiving others for pleasure/personal gain
    Impulsive decision making
    Irritability or aggressiveness
    Reckless/harmful behavior
    Irresponsibility/inability to function
    Lack of remorse for acts that harm others
    Can only be diagnosed in adulthood
    Narcissistic Traits in Malignant Narcissists
    Grandiose, arrogant, or acts superior Fantasies about power/success/fame Needs excessive praise/validation Feels entitled to special treatment Exploits or uses others for personal gain Lacking empathy for needs of others Envious of others Hypersensitive to criticism Can be diagnosed before the age of 18
    Combined, having both antisocial and narcissistic traits tends to lead to a very severe form of pathology.

  • MalvinasArgentinas H&G rights

    As my countrymen and women said, the Argentina’s sovereignty is non-negotiable, and that includes the Islas Malvinas.

    The confusion in this thread regarding these statements, and those of Ms Mondino’s, is nothing but a blatant disregard for our Hispano-American history, the past and present geography facts, and the legal reasons that give my country sovereignty rights on this matter. Is interesting to see you all frustrated claiming ‘discovery and occupation’ and ignoring basic concepts of history and international law that you all know very well, but prefer to hide under layers of doubtful stories.

    For example, it impossible for the former empire to ignore that the Malvinas sit in Argentina’s continental shelf.

    The cherry-picking interpretation of the UN GA Charter is another example: Argentina didn’t acquire new territory in modern times, but maintained the territory as it was during the colonial period of time once it emancipated from Spain.

    Similarly, self-determination doesn’t apply to the current inhabitants of the islands, since they ARE British, not original people seeking independence: that would be us, fighting and protesting the invasion of Malvinas since 1833. And so, all your arguments, one by one, are debunked. The world knows this, and it is rallying to our support, because it is an anachronism to try to keep as a ‘British foreign territory’ Malvinas; this plainly is wrong, even if you try to disguise it as self-determination.

    Oh dear “Malvinas Argentina Gh” what a load of nonsense you talk.

    I deny absolutely that the Falklands are on Argentinas continental shelf. Argentina doesn’t own a continental shelf, no country does.

    I deny that Argentina has not gained new territory, Patagonia was not part of the Spanish Empire and was acquired by Argentine genocide.

    Your argument that after 180 years of habitation that someone cannot change their nationality would be seen as Fascist in most parts of the world and mean that 80%+ of Argentines are in fact not Argentine.

    ”Malignant Narcissist. A special sub-type of narcissist that has also some traits of ASPD, such as aggressiveness, deceitfulness, and remorselessness. They are often sadistic and gain pleasure from hurting others.
    Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). A type of personality disorder in which a person has grandiose fantasies of success and power with few or no achievements behind the fantasies. People with the disorder are constantly comparing themselves to others and feeling envious. They may also feel others are envious of them. They believe they are unique and entitled to special treatment, admiration, and obedience. In addition, they lack emotional empathy and have a willingness to exploit others for their own benefit.
    Neurotypical. A term once used to describe individuals who were not on the autism spectrum, it is now used as a term to contrast individuals who do not have a particular mental or behavioral disorder with those who do.
    Overt Narcissist. A “garden-variety” or typical narcissist whose emotional displays, grandiosity and feelings of entitlement and superiority are on obvious display to others.

Only the term “psychopath” has been recognized in the DSM-5, and it is not an official diagnosis. Some researchers believe that a psychopath is more biologically-determined and a person’s environment is more responsible for producing a sociopath. Still others believe that there are differences between the two in how they behave. For example, they believe that a psychopath is more calculating and a sociopath acts more spontaneously.
