Yeah, this is narcissism. One is so insecure that they defensively convince themselves that the world revolves around them. Any self-reflection ends up so dissonant that it gets shut down immediately. It takes a really hard hit to knock the delusion aside, even temporarily.

Decades of practice in devaluing anyone you don't agree with makes it easy to jump to "anyone worth anything agrees that I'm the center of the universe."
