I believe most of these people (and I admit, including myself) are complaining about their personal experiences of being abused by narcissists, rather than narcissists per se.
Maybe we should have distinguished between people who have NPD, and people who have NPD who are abusive. There are many people with personality disorders who are non-abusive, and many people without any diagnosis who are abusive.
I'm really sorry that your feelings were hurt.
