The Marxist religion teaches people to look outside themselves for the source of their problems. All strife is rooted in "power dynamics". Evil corporations, the wealthy, politicians, white people, cisgenders, ableists with all their arms and legs. Your problems can always be traced to everyone except you.
In order to avoid cognitive dissonance, this requires an exceptional degree of "othering" - to dehumanize other people and disregard their feelings and needs. This is not easy for people with a conscience. After all, it's much harder to dump all your problems on someone after you look at things from their point of view.
On the other hand, this "othering" comes naturally to narcissists and sociopaths, who, being incapable (or unwilling) to consider someone else's thoughts and feelings, will "other" people as a matter of reflex.
Hence why narcissists and sociopaths are a natural fit for Marxism, as it reinforces their psychosis. After all, what could be better for a narcissist, than being reaffirmed by a religion that makes everything about you (victim mentality), and puts all of your problems on the "other".
