   I find this very interesting, especially given that there is a paper from 1993 (linked in the artcile) that explains the issue, but it is still happening - and maybe nowadays even more than ever?

   It does help us a lot, actually, and the treatment should be analogical. It's not a cop-out, it's reality. Including sociopaths in humanity benefits and protects only them. And it renders the rest of us - their victims - powerless

   Corporations are not humans. And while sociopaths - who benefit the most from corporations - technically are humans, I don't consider them parts of humanity, more like a cancer tissue on top of it. So whatever benefit humanity gets is

    This, though it's bigger than religion. There were always people creating illusionary worlds to control other people who gladly believed their lies, there still are. We live in a chaotic and illegible world, but humans crave legibility
