Sam Vaknin outlines a nosology of pro-social or communal narcissists, identifying three types: the faker who ostentatiously conforms and exploits existing systems; the iconoclast who rejects the old order to impose a new one and offers followers hope and direction; and the brutally honest narcissist who weaponizes honesty as sadistic, misanthropic aggression. He describes each type’s motives, strategies, and social effects, noting how fakers signal conformity, iconoclasts create a new in-group narrative, and brutal honestists inflict harm under the guise of candor. Vaknin warns these varieties are increasingly prevalent in postmodern society and calls attention to their damaging consequences. 3 Narcissists: Faker, Iconoclast, Doomsayer
