  1. So I was watching a TED talk, (Strange Answers to the Psychopath Test | Jon Ronsonand) and even getting mildly interested in it. I've always thought TED was a sophist cult, but here's the creme of the crop.. "Capitalism gives ruthless rewards to physhopathic behavior" "It's a form of psychopathy that's come to affect us all" https://youtu.be/xYemnKEKx0c?t=9m52s(Where he makes these comments) How are we ever going to convince people that freedom is the way when we have people on such a highly held platform openly saying that free trade is psychopathic? Do you think this man is legitimately evil and psychopath himself, or is he simply ignorant of the extend to which government force is the pinnacle of psychopathic power? What's a concise point to shut this guy down, aside from the moral argument from non aggression which he obviously denies?
  2. By an almost inverted process of exclusion, those who manage to make it to be 'our leaders' are most likely to be the least suitable. Indeed if one imagines how leaders would match against the Hare Psychopathy Check-list, for example, the conclusion is striking: Factor 1: Personality “Aggressive narcissism” Glibness/superficial charm Grandiose sense of self-worth Pathological lying Cunning/manipulative Lack of remorse or guilt Shallow affect (genuine emotion is short-lived and egocentric) Callousness; lack of empathy Failure to accept responsibility for own actions Factor 2: Case history “Socially deviant lifestyle” Need for stimulation/proneness to boredom Parasitic lifestyle Poor behavioural control Lack of realistic long-term goals Impulsiveness Irresponsibility Juvenile delinquency Early behaviour problems Revocation of conditional release Traits not correlated with either factor Promiscuous sexual behaviour Many short-term marital relationships Criminal versatility Acquired behavioural sociopathy/sociological conditioning
  3. This article mentions a program on Channel 4 tomorrow Saturday 14th night (UK) 9pm about psychopathy. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2523150/High-flying-lawyer-claims-successful-shes-psychopath.html
