The fun part for the rest of us is that functioning psychopaths and sociopaths can rise to high levels and many become politicians or CEOs of large companies.
-
Don't forget, just because they aren't engaging in direct person-to-person violence, doesn't mean they aren't actively hurting people through business practices, policy-making, manipulation, and other methods.

Over the course of my 30 plus corporate career, I worked with industrial psychopaths who were promoted due to high performance but who were also ruthless, manipulative, narcissistic, etc. Many companies turn a blind eye to behaviour in favour of performance. Sad but true. 🇨🇦

As an Exec Coach and having worked with senior leaders my entire life, I can attest to this. Some of them are very charismatic, inspiring and charming with an ability to destroy people and cause an immense amount of trauma to people and organizations.

I don’t think psychopaths can be rehabilitated because I think they are intelligent,charming and manipulative and say whatever it takes to get out of prison!
-
I have seen people who were excellent parents - provided love, security etc. and their kid grows up to be a not-so-good human being. I have seen bad or absent parents who have a child grow up to be a much better person than their parent. It has to be something in the brain. The Dr. In one scene described it perfectly - they are like someone who is colorblind. They are blind to emotion and empathy.
-
If you look in their eyes while they are speaking and you start to look for the emotional being living inside, you’ll soon realize nobody’s home.

I have a female relative who is one. Where ever she goes, she will find a way to psychologically/emotionally damage someone she meets-like its her 'hobby'. She is scary, I,ve hid from her for years. AND -when they know that you know-then you are in more danger.

My cousin was both born and made. She was highly abused and took that experience into her adult life and built a mannerism to attract a specific type of man , then destroys them financially and emotionally. It's as if she seeks her revenge on all men. She is extremely skilled at her game. One husband was put in prison. And she got the old family money. Truth is stranger than fiction.

Children abusing and destroying animals is a sign of psychopathy.

I used to watch these old documentaries years ago when this channel was still called Barcroft Docs. So many of them got deleted for copyright and are now impossible to find. I wish there was a broader online library of these 1980s-early 2000s documentaries, they are fascinating. Some of my favorites were the one about British single fathers, the I Married a Maasai, the breast implant one, the gynocomastia one, the one about crossdressers in marriages, and the one about young girls with eating disorders.

Be careful of people who are overly charming and/or charismatic
-
Treatment only makes them worse because they can pretend to have empathy and care about people and pretend to be sensitive. Give up, it's a waste of time and money. They cannot and will not change. Ever.
-
dude is comparing touching the stove to feeling empathy- brah, no, those are literally the opposite of one another. one is learning to avoid hurting yourself, the other is about not wanting to hurt others
-
If the psychopath is manipulative, can't they easily manipulate the psychopathy test?
-
Severe childhood trauma/neglect shrinks the Amygdala in children
-
One of the biggest disservices YouTube does is not put a date on the original content. When did first air and where?
-
Documentary released in 2000 for anyone who cares.

That part when the guy walks by and says "this programs a sham"...
-
Please! You must NEVER ALLOW Wayne to get out of prison!!!
