And when you show indifference, you’re doing something far worse than pointing out their lies; you’re exposing the whole illusion.

No, you’re pulling back the curtain and showing them the empty void behind it. You’re exposing the fact that the grandeur, the fake bravado, and the “I’m better than you” attitude is all a show. And guess what happens when you do that? The narcissist starts to panic. They can’t hold the facade together anymore. Your indifference is like pulling off their mask in front of a crowd. They’re exposed, vulnerable, and everything they’ve worked so hard to maintain falls apart.
