I feel like I can generally deal with a lot of toxic personalities well enough but the one that has given me the toughest time has been the instigator, as I like to call it. The way I describe it say in a workplace or social setting, you are kind of minding your own business or everyone is having a decent enough time, the instigator is the type that stirs the pot. Maybe passive aggressive is one way to put it. The kind to disrespect certain people, start the drama, and create a hectic environment just at times because they prefer it that way.

One thing I do want to add is that it is rarely an attractive woman that does this, I typically find women who do this are often either older, usually hideous looking, and the kind to usually fit more of a niche group like say a raging feminist, butch lesbian, and I see this somewhat more commonly with women of minority groups than white girls if I am being politically incorrect for a moment.

With guys, I notice it too but it tends to be less common. It is rarely the Chad types or alpha males at work doing it, they tend to be more direct and just say it. I notice it more with say older guys who are kind of on the unfortunate end in regards to looks. Younger guys that fit the profile of someone who might spend way too much time on the internet as well.

Say you are in a situation where such type at a workplace who thrives off of this sort of thing has you targeted, how would you go about combatting them?
