I'm glad we're labeling a large segment of the population psychopaths because they can't empathize.
I have observed people braking down in tears when a bug is stomped on and it's completely incomprehensible to me. I recognize that it's wrong and unnecessary but that's learned, I don't feel emotions toward the bug.
I would never use a glue trap because I understand that it's cruel and causes rodents to suffer and I have no emotions about it, it's a learned skill.
Am I a psychopath?
- tyingq 7y agoI feel like "psychopath" is just a more provocative term for "sociopath". Which itself is kind of fuzzy. Psychiatry is an odd field to me, where they try to ascribe certainty and labels when they don't really know, and boundaries are vague.
