Transcript
- 0:00So do a narcissist flying monkeys.
- 0:02No, that they are flying monkeys.
- 0:05No, they thought that they are enabling A narcissist behaviors.
- 0:10That's what we're going to talk about today, y'all.
- 0:11In today's video, you're going to find out that some do, some
- 0:15don't, and how to deal with flying monkeys overall.
- 0:18Of course, if you're new here, my name is Lee Hammock.
- 0:20I'm a diagnosed narcissist myself and welcome to another
- 0:22episode of the Narcissist Code. Welcome back, folks.
- 0:42Welcome back. Welcome back.
- 0:44Yes, yes, yes, yes. Y'all narcissist flying monkeys.
- 0:49The flying monkey bats, as I like to call them sometimes.
- 0:53Yes, I'm shooting in my car right now.
- 0:55I just left the gym. I'm actually about to get this
- 0:57tattoo. Talk about see if I'll get this
- 0:59tattoo removed off my arm and go from there with it.
- 1:02But if you don't know what a flying monkey is, it's overall a
- 1:08supporter of the narcissist. The term flying monkey came from
- 1:13the Wizard of Oz. Like you know how the wicked
- 1:15witch of the, I think West or the east, the evil wicked witch,
- 1:18right? You remember how she like had
- 1:22the flying monkeys that did her bidding?
- 1:24Same thing, the fly monkeys did the bidding of the wicked witch
- 1:28and pretty much got nothing in return.
- 1:30I guess they got to serve the wicked witch.
- 1:32The the overall it doesn't seem like the fly monkeys got much in
- 1:34return other than we did a wicked witch.
- 1:37We did it. Same thing in any situation in
- 1:40real life. A fly monkey is one of those,
- 1:44one of those fly monkey bats. And the wicked witch is your
- 1:46narcissistic partner or parent to whoever it is in your life.
- 1:49Right? So first part of this, do fly
- 1:52monkeys know what they're doing? Do fly monkeys just
- 1:55automatically believe the narcissist?
- 1:57Yes, some of them do y'all. Some of them active.
- 2:01Some fly monkeys are narcissist. Some fly monkeys are highly
- 2:05narcissist, highly narcissistic. Some fly monkeys are just toxic
- 2:08as hell. Just evil bastards so to speak.
- 2:11Let's just get that out of the way I think.
- 2:14I know a lot of people will just understand what I'm saying right
- 2:16there, but there's so many fly monkeys that know exactly what
- 2:19they're doing and they are just, if not just asked, if not more
- 2:23evil than the narcissist, right? The other part of it is that
- 2:28some narcissists, right, some narcissistic people, the fly,
- 2:31like they employed, they kind of like employed the flying monkeys
- 2:36to do their bidding. They'll tell the flying monkeys
- 2:39what is going on, and the flying monkeys will absolutely serve
- 2:42the narcissist. They'll convey information back
- 2:45and forth, they'll spread rumors, they'll help, they'll
- 2:47help spread the smear campaign. They'll stalk you, they'll
- 2:50harass you. They'll do a lot of things to
- 2:53you that they should not be doing overall.
- 2:55And I think a lot of people who've dealt with fly monkeys
- 2:57understand exactly what I'm saying.
- 2:59Like you understand exactly what I'm saying.
- 3:02How the fly monkey bats out here will literally do whatever they
- 3:05take it takes to make the narcissist happy or to make the
- 3:08narcissist smile or whatever the case may be.
- 3:10So yes, some of them absolutely do know what they're doing.
- 3:14And yes, they don't know. They don't care to hear the
- 3:18other version of the story, to hear your side of the story.
- 3:20Some of them don't care about that, y'all.
- 3:22I know some people were just like, well, if I could just sit
- 3:24down and talk to the flying monkey bat that they would
- 3:27believe me and maybe they can turn into my flying monkey.
- 3:29No, you don't want, Yeah, you don't want a damn double agent
- 3:33flying monkey. Who wants that?
- 3:35Why would you want? Why would you want that?
- 3:37Why on earth would you want a double agent flying monkey?
- 3:41Why would you want that? Seriously, why would you want a
- 3:45double agent to fly monkey that you can't trust that what
- 3:48somebody that was literally all against you, Now they're all for
- 3:52you. You want them to switch sides
- 3:54again because they will switch your your ass again that you if
- 3:57you don't think they'll switch on you again, you got to.
- 3:59I got a lake to sell you in the middle of the Sahara desert,
- 4:03right. Just just tell you don't try to
- 4:07get the fly monkeys on your side and get them to get them to give
- 4:11you information about the narcissist.
- 4:12That will not help you. I promise you it will not.
- 4:15I know some people just like well, leave make me feel better.
- 4:17I know, but you don't want the fly monkey who is a typically
- 4:20going to be an untrustworthy person on your side, unless it's
- 4:23like your sibling or your family member or something like that.
- 4:25They you got back on your side. I can see that a little bit, but
- 4:28not playing both sides. You don't want to don't get into
- 4:31look, don't wrestle with pigs because you're both getting
- 4:34right. And the fly monkeys are pigs in
- 4:36this situation sometimes. But like I said, some, some fly
- 4:41monkeys do know exactly what they're doing.
- 4:43They know that they're serving the narcissist.
- 4:45They don't care what the truth is.
- 4:47But on the other side of things, there are the fly monkeys that
- 4:51are just ignorant. And I'm not using ignorant in a
- 4:54derogatory way. I'm just using ignorant meaning
- 4:56a lack of knowledge, meaning a lack of understanding, not an
- 5:00insult, right? But people hear the word
- 5:02ignorant. They typically they, they think
- 5:04that they're being insulted and what not.
- 5:06But this is not what I'm doing. Like when I say ignorant, I mean
- 5:09that the narcissistic person right here or the flying monkey
- 5:12just doesn't know what they're doing, doesn't know what's going
- 5:14on. They just just in the middle.
- 5:17They just kind of got put in the middle.
- 5:18And sometimes they don't want to take sides.
- 5:20But you can tell that they're taking the side of the abuser,
- 5:23right? They're choosing the side of the
- 5:26narcissist instead of dealing and helping you out and whatnot.
- 5:29In these cases, in these situations, that's the truth.
- 5:32Yeah, that's the big truth right there.
- 5:34So there are so many people out there that are dealing with
- 5:37narcissists and toxic people that just that just have this
- 5:39type of stuff going on. Like seriously, and this is what
- 5:43you'll be dealing with. This is what you'll be battling
- 5:46against when you're dealing with toxic narcissistic people.
- 5:49The the ignorant flying monkey can sometimes be worse, right?
- 5:53Because they don't know what they're doing.
- 5:54They don't know that they're going back and forth, spreading
- 5:56information and helping a narcissist out.
- 5:58Sometimes they don't even know the relationship was toxic.
- 6:00They just don't believe anybody. And they just think that they're
- 6:03being like, what do you call a Switzerland, a neutral country?
- 6:06They think they're being Switzerland.
- 6:07I'm not taking sides, but you know what I mean?
- 6:09I'm a sense of resources over here, not over there, you know,
- 6:13So some of the fly monkeys absolutely don't have any idea
- 6:17what's going on. They have no idea.
- 6:18They really do not know y'all. But I know I told you, I promise
- 6:25y'all how to deal with a fly monkey in this video.
- 6:28Do you want to have to like so fly monkeys, there's a few
- 6:31different ways to deal with them.
- 6:32Sometimes you could simply ignore them, which is not how
- 6:35most people want to deal with them.
- 6:37Especially the flying monkey has been torturing you and harassing
- 6:41you and just participating in the abuse.
- 6:44Hell, you don't want them to get away with, you don't want to.
- 6:46Just like ignoring them could help.
- 6:49Like ignoring a flying monkey could help you out in the long
- 6:52run, right? It could absolutely help you out
- 6:54in the long run. But you don't want to get into
- 6:56the weeds of going back and forth with the flying monkey,
- 6:59like trying to hurt them and harm them or trying to ruin
- 7:01their reputation. Going back and forth with them.
- 7:03Of course you want to document everything that's going on.
- 7:06You absolutely do. You want to document everything
- 7:09that's going on with this flying monkey?
- 7:11You want to document everything that you're experiencing.
- 7:13If they're stalking or harassing you, if they're yeah, if they're
- 7:16breaking the law, call the law. If they're stalking you and you
- 7:21can prove it, call the law. That's why I say document
- 7:24everything. You want to defeat a flying
- 7:25monkey by not talking to them and trying to get them to stand
- 7:28down. Call the law because sometimes
- 7:31that's what it's going to take. It's going to take for you to
- 7:33call the boys, call the boys in blue to help you out because the
- 7:38fly, sometimes you have to force these bastards to stop y'all or
- 7:41they will not stop. Like of course they're going to
- 7:44call you. Like in certain communities, the
- 7:46fly monkeys will call you a snitch.
- 7:47Like you snitched on me. I can't believe you told you
- 7:50told on me. I can't believe you did this.
- 7:52To hell with them. They harassed you, stalked you,
- 7:56sometimes threatened to threaten you, did all kinds of stuff.
- 7:59Call the police, call them. Don't spare them.
- 8:04They're not sparing you. Why would you spare them?
- 8:06Of course, use discretion and be careful, but they're not sparing
- 8:09you. Why on earth would you spare
- 8:11them? You see what I'm saying?
- 8:13That's one of the things that so many people have to, you have to
- 8:15understand when you're dealing with a narcissistic person or
- 8:17abusive person, like they're not trying to spare you, so why
- 8:22would you try to spare them? You know what I mean?
- 8:25So sometimes to get the fly monkey to stop, you might have
- 8:28to call the police. Absolutely.
- 8:31You might absolutely have to call the police on their asses.
- 8:34Really realistically, you might absolutely have to get their
- 8:38asses locked up. You might absolutely have to get
- 8:40a restraining order. Sometimes that's what you have
- 8:43to do. If they refuse to leave you
- 8:45alone, then you have to refuse to take the pressure off their
- 8:48damn necks. To hell again, y'all to hell
- 8:51with them. I want to, I'm about to say the
- 8:52F word, but I don't like cussing this morning.
- 8:54I don't feel like cussing this morning, you know?
- 8:55I mean, just in these situations, make sure that you
- 8:59are documenting everything because can some sometimes could
- 9:02you set up a meeting with the flying monkey and y'all just
- 9:04cross paths and sit down? Y'all have mutual friends that
- 9:08schedule a meeting where y'all can sit down and hash things
- 9:10out? Yeah, that that's a possibility.
- 9:12But again, if they are flying monkeys right now, I would never
- 9:16fully trust them again. Like they will have to go above
- 9:20and beyond to gain my trust. Regardless of what initial
- 9:24relationship we had. If you turned on me on a whim,
- 9:28it's going to be very difficult for me to trust you again with
- 9:31anything. With anything.
- 9:33Why would I trust you again after you've clearly betrayed me
- 9:37before? Have you?
- 9:38After you've clearly betrayed me?
- 9:40Why the would I trust you again? Why would I do this?
- 9:45Why would I put you? Why?
- 9:46Why would I? Why would I do this to you right
- 9:47here? You see what I'm saying?
- 9:49This is what so many people have to understand and deal with
- 9:52because this is what abusive, manipulative, toxic ass people
- 9:55are going to keep doing because it benefits them.
- 9:58At the end of the day, fly monkeys are there to serve the
- 10:01narcissist. Now, could Now, is it a
- 10:03possibility the fly monkey could be on your side?
- 10:05Yeah, you could. You could have your own little
- 10:07version of a flying monkey. I don't know what you would call
- 10:09it. Well, I don't know what you call
- 10:10it. What you would call it.
- 10:11Impasse flying monkey. I guess you would call them the
- 10:15Tin Man. You can have the Tin Man's or
- 10:16the scare. You can have some scarecrows.
- 10:19Since we all since this is Wizard of Oz, Wizard of Oz coded
- 10:23you can have the scarecrow, the Tin Man or what was the other
- 10:26scarecrow? Tin Man?
- 10:29Was it the only one? Toto I haven't seen Wizard of Oz
- 10:32in forever. Tin Man Scarecrow and the the
- 10:37lion, the little scared scared, the cat lion or whatever the
- 10:39name was. I forgot I got to look it up.
- 10:42You can have one of them, we'll call them ten men.
- 10:43No, 10 men. Scarecrows just sound like the
- 10:47opposite, unless you're trying to scare a narcissist the way
- 10:49right. So I hope this video aborted
- 10:52some clarity on flying monkeys, y'all, how to deal with them and
- 10:54whether or not flying monkeys know exactly what they're doing.
- 10:57Some do, some don't, but you all get again, you get the toxic,
- 11:01narcissistic, abusive person who benefits from it all whether
- 11:04they know or not or not the narcissist benefits from it all.
