Persistent Negative Humor and Sarcasm
"Behind the smile, a hidden knife!"
β Ancient Chinese proverb describing passive-aggressive behavior
Disguised with a smile, negative humor can systematically tear down the gaslightee by repeatedly making fun of and embarrassing someone in private and public situations, thereby gaining twisted power over the victim. Sarcasm can be utilized to put-down an individual based on their physical appearance, personal characteristics, individual ability, socioeconomic and cultural background, gender and gender-orientation, etc. Persistent negative humor and sarcasm are passive-aggressive forms of psychological bullying.
When A Morris gave that sick smile just shows him to be a physiological bully thinking that he has some kind of power over people but it just proved his a self appointed leader of a cult.
