Why do the people in the other groups seem to start arguments?

Snip

Pick a minority group and tell as many people as you can that this minority group is trying to destroy the country (somehow) or take something away from people. It doesn’t matter whether it’s gays, blacks, Latinos, Jews, Muslims, communists, the kids these days, atheists, liberals, or just lazy people so long as it’s some group the majority of Americans can be against.

Then, say something outrageous to start a fight. Here’s Ann Coulter talking about how to do this:

You must outrage the enemy. If the liberal you’re arguing with doesn’t become speechless with sputtering, impotent rage, you’re not doing it right. People don’t get angry when lies are told about them; they get angry when the truth is told about them. If you are not being called outrageous by liberals, you’re not being outrageous enough. Start with the maximum assertion about liberals and then push the envelope, because, as we know, their evil is incalculable.

Narcissists aren't inconsiderate of your feelings. To the contrary, they are extremely considerate of your feelings. Your feelings are exactly what they are trying to affect. They closely observe how you react every time they do something to hurt you.

And they are like sharks, able to smell a drop of blood a mile away. Why? Because your hurt feelings are their pain killing drug.

They are addicted to it. Ever since childhood.

That's what their mental illness is, an addiction. (In fact, all addictions are classed as mental illness.)
