102. Classic pattern of narcissists, too.

We see it in Trump to the extreme, but basically everything he does and thinks is automatically true. No one can have a legitimate disagreement with him - they're a "hater" or funded by Soros.

Others express the sentiment differently, by using terms like "choir" to try and discredit others as being part of some faceless group conducted by someone else.

At any rate, a lecture on namecalling from guillaumeb is quite comedic.
