sociopathy

The phrase is rooted in a very old memeplex, the part where religious morality and sociopathy overlap.

What this means is never really defined (are we using the lay or clinical definition of sociopathy?

But whether the sociopathy is debilitating is to be examined.

This chicken-hawk sociopathy stuff may be fun to write, but it isn't doing you or the site any favors.

But you waved away scientific discussion, and instead choose only to use the moral lens, and bring up sociopathy.

There are all kinds of issues that arise if people hold the view that sociopathy is a disease which should be treated.

I really enjoyed this movie, but I also feel like it was a Rorschach test for sociopathy.

Should it be mandated by the state that a parent must treat their child for sociopathy in the same way vaccinations are mandatory?

Whatever you may think of the DSM, sociopathy is listed as a disorder.

Or in vocations, like policing, where there's a large risk of developing sociopathy.

I felt like it was more of an attempt at justifying sociopathy, or at least exploring the impulse towards it.

Perhaps faking it is even the path to a 'cure' for sociopathy.

There's sociopathy, but there isn't even a DSM definition for "psychopath".

I think they're more closely aligned with psychopathy/sociopathy (the actual disorders) than outright "evil".

Maybe it won't lead us to a "cure" for sociopathy, but it can at least tell us more about the brain and how it gets wired up.

So, saying "sociopathy" or the equivalent people use "psychopathy" is "a myth", is just plain wrong.
