Last two laptops over bought for family have been AMD. They've been brilliant.
IMHO Intel has eroded the last scrap of trust I had in them with the 14900K crap.
Prior to that was Intel's refusal to release Vulcan support for an older generation of iGPU to compel upgrades to newer CPU's (by buying an entire new laptop). So I did, an AMD one.
I've been mulling over your actual question a bit. I could argue that some of the stigmatisation could just be that it's really easy to dislike someone who's self centred or selfish, that NPD can present similarly (gross assumptions on my part there, sorry) makes it easy to dislike someone with NPD.
Disliking someone makes it very easy to stigmatise any and all of their traits. It becomes a feedback loop.
Anyway, I hope you manage it well and hope you can surround yourself with supportive people.
