my brother is a useless narcissist and my parents are proud of him for that

my brother is 17 years old he is basically good for nothing he doesn t get good grades he has no talents he is pretty stupid in general he is addicted to minecraft (thats basically what he does ALL DAY) he has extremly bad hygiene (he doesn t shower or brush his teeth HE STINKS at the point that people call him out for it) he is starting to become openly mysogynistic and racist (he loves the german dictator if u know what i mean he does the sign he openly makes racist and mysogynistic jokes he also looks down on me and my mom (mostly me tbh) ) obv he doesn t do chores either if u tell him to do something he starts throwing a tanthrum cuz he is busy playing minecraft instead of doing something about it my parent PRAISE him they even go as far as making some kind of fake scenarios to "show" that he is a capable "young man" and he always looks down on people in general cuz he is "better " than them. Backstory : so since i was a kid i always achieved lots of stuff like winning competitions i was on tv and got good grades but my parents would always turn my wins into his example i won a huge competition once and at the end when i won instead of praising me they started telling my brother that if he joined the competition he would have def won and beat me too so that he won t get "jealous" , when it was my birthday he had to get a gift even tho on my birthday i would usually only get a cake and a gift while he would get a whole birthday party , in term of grades my dad gave my brother TRIPLE the money he gave me when i was his age for obtaining LOWER than me LIKE HE BARELY PASSED mind you at his age i was top of my class i am not saying that he should get the same grades as me but still he could at least try to get "average" grades . About my parents : they usually don t do anything when he does mistakes like when he was a kid my parents wouldn t ground him cuz he was too "young" and when he grew up around 15 years old he was too old to get grounded so he basically never got punished while me in the other hand i would get punished for the smallest thing sometimes i would even get punished for stuff he did . About me : so i am 19F there was a time where i tried raising my brother since my parent barely does anything to "fix" him but everytime i would tell him not to do something like example once we were in malaysia and he was doing the racist asian eye thingy and i told him to stop doing that my mom told me leave him alone its only when she saw the pics of him doing the "thing" that she started panicking . He also once started saying stuff he shouldn t say in public he got upset and told my mom and she started yelling at me for telling him to not do something that he shouldn t be doing and that i wasn t his "mom" my dad does shit 99% everytime there is a problem with my brother he just tells me to tell my mom instead it goes as far as my brother insulting my mom in front of my dad and guess what my dad does? nothing he is more annoying about the noise than what my brother is saying . Did my parents try anything to "fix" him since he is now becoming a grown ass man : there was some miserable "attemps" to fill his schedule they tried making him practice sports i told them to pick something calm for him cuz he was starting to show violent tendencies like hitting me but obv they didn t listen to me and made him do calisthenic and now he has no shame in hitting me cuz he is physically stronger than me now ( i used to do martial art but i stopped years ago) the other attempt was making him learn about the religion now my dad see him as better than me in any category cuz he is closer to god than me and now my brother uses it as his advantage to lie about me and make my parents upset at me for no reason mind u always has no proofs but the fact he is close to god makes him always right and its starting to get on my nerves my parents are sooo proud of him but really nothing changed now he still stinks plays minecraft all day gets bad grades the only thing that changed is that he can now manipulate my parents . FINAL NOTE : i am worried about him he is turning 18 in a few months i have difficulty imagining him doing anything useful in his life he is probably gonna turn into an incels if i don t stop him.

-i forgot to add that he has slight adhd but its not severe at all

-sorry for the spelling mistakes or weird sentences english isn t my first language
