You know what another word for psychopath is? Asshole. It's easy to spot them and it's easy to avoid them so calm down. It's not a full blown epidemic and these people have been around since the beginning of time.
- dhughes 17y agoNot always, or at least they're not so obvious, some pretend to be your friend and to console you all the while they are the ones causing you harm. A better word may be "manager".

- greenlblue 17y agoMy point was that this article takes a long and winding road to reach the simple conclusion that some people are simply assholes and there is nothing to be done about it because they are built differently and the article makes it all sound really menacing. There is nothing menacing here. Most assholes have the same profile so it's really easy to figure them out after you've come into contact with a few of them. Turning it into a research program is in my opinion a waste of money which is the other thing the article seems to advocate.
- confuzatron 17y agoThe authors argue that people in general (unlike you) are not good at spotting psychopaths, that psychopathy is an increasingly successful evolutionary strategy, that psychos are controlling society to help nurture their psycho offspring, whom certain in-denial hippies have dubbed 'indigo children'. I thought the whole thing was immensely entertaining (but I'm just saying that to stave off the terror).
