as much as some psychopaths are trouble, we can't kill them off. They are people, afterall. That would be like the holocaust of psychology. It would be completely wrong.

Lion in the jungle always does what is in his best interest and they call it Nature... I always do what is in my best interest and they call me a psychopath.... what a bunch of Bullshit
@jackson7201 Psychopaths, like lions, are not to blame for what they are, but when a lion kills people we shoot it. We don't tolerate lions preying on human beings nor should we tolerate psychopaths doing the same thing. Just like you, peaceable people have their own interests to defend. So fuck nature and fuck psychopaths.
Psychopaths choose to ignore information.. we all can choose what information has value to us. This is why some people find joy in things others do not. Psychopaths are just very selfish people.
@nickgoering not by choice...its just that nobody else matters, just how it effects me is all that matters...sure im not gunna throw a baceball at my fathers fat head just because it might make me feel good, because the aftermath is not agreeable to make things better for me...you use the word selfish loosely, do nice things for others only if theres some sort of emotional gain from it... :D, besides who gives a shit how i feel about it, should only matter if it was a good result....selfish? pft
@carriemaizey I'm guessing you're an as yet, ignorant full of himself teenager by your profile, You have a long time ahead of you to enable you to look back and reflect on your words. I promise you.
I remember my neighbor was telling me he was diagnosed as a psychopath . I dont know why he was telling me that, probably because he wanted to brag about something..and man. Arguing with him is almost impossible. He is so manipulative and controlling. He just doesn't give up when it comes to heated situations. but i cant say for sure he is one though. but hes just so full of himself. ughhh
Now that you've had time to review MRIs from hundreds of people, are you shocked at the amount/% of psychopaths you've found? I'm guessing it's more than 4% of the population, as Hare predicted. I'm guessing it's closer to 8% at the least. When will we know the results of such an investigation regarding how many walk among us?
@paolasoulsaver Psychopaths are not "brilliant" they are merely good at copying and mimicking human behavior. They are actually quite slow. And when they are "brilliant" it is because they have blatantly plagiarized someone, what with not having a conscience and all...
My friend is being still harassed and credit/bank stalked by two psychopaths he used to work for. The University of Pennsylvania seems to be allowing these two psychopaths all their resources they need to go after my friend. Any suggestions?

@036827 They don't just not give a shit about people. Politicians lie, cheat, steal and kill. They imprison peaceful people, empower corporations, make phony wars and plunder the taxpayer. Psychopaths must be removed from government.
@jollyradical You're just jealous because the psychopaths are so successful. Instead of complaining about the Big Bad Corporations, why don't join the club? My stock options rose sharply in 2005 because of the Iraq War.
Most psychopaths aren't the murdering kind, but rather do things like take your money or act like horrendous neighbours. I lived next to one. Best thing to do is to get out fast! Even if that means moving.
If we ever create the technology to know if an unborn baby's brain shows that the child will be a psychopath should be a choice of the mother to abort or a necessity for the safety of society?
@TheTravelfool Good question. Abortion can have serious ramifications on the body of the woman and may induce diminished fertility later in life. Psychopaths, in my opinion, upon committing a crime and being diagnosed with this disorder, should be systematically exterminated. But not in the womb.
@JMorde999 Interesting and honestly I agree. In one of my courses (I'm going for a doctorate) this became a hot debate and I was related to Hitler as yes, it would be systematically killing off a certain group of people. However, I think one has to be a pure idiot to compare the systematic killing of psychopaths to that of Jewish or handicap people.
@TheTravelfool Most people have difficulty dissociating their emotions from pure logic, so I can understand how they have come to that conclusion. I would suggest outlining the differences between the two, and why psychopaths are a dangerous enough demographic to warrant extermination. Oh, and good luck with your doctorate.
@TheTravelfool Society will not be able to remove them by implementing systematic killings of psychopaths. Who do you think would run the extermination of people for what they are and not for what they do in the first place?
Bwahaha
Psychopaths are under selective pressure. If they are still here is because they are well adapted.
@WarmongerWW3 In evolutionary terms, psychopathy is short term smart, but long term stupid. A parasite which is excessively aggressive destroys its' host, which means the parasite dies with it.
Psychopaths are only biologically fit, when they are in a social system that they have designed and are able to dominate. In any scenario which is based on robust, policing reciprocity on the other hand, they are at a severe disadvantage.
@petrus4 psychopathy represents an alternative evolutionary strategy consisting primarily of "cheating" behaviors (Barr & Quinsey, 2004; Crawford & Salmon,
2002). game theory and evolution can explain why psychopaths (at low frequencies) may be able to successfully maintain cheating as an evolutionarily adaptive strategy. (Glenn AL, Raine A, 2009)
@ jollyradical, you are absolutely right. Just like the "freedom from conscience" video points out, trait by trait, many politicians display at the least narcissism and at worse psychopathic traits.
They are all over and they can't be changed. Someone said that even Presidents or other leaders can be or have been Psychopaths and that's part of why the world is always so ill. Actually kind of makes sense when you think about it.
every person who runs for president of the united states should be required to undergo the psychopathy checklist. they should also be required to have neuro-imaging studies of their brain to indicate how high they score on psychopathy scales.
@jollyradical you are probably right. Search the video "Freedom from Conscience -- psychopaths" -- it discusses the relationship between psychopaths and politicians.
95 percent of yo sheep will kill if threatened or ordered by authority. Even a moron like Hitler knew that. But this is another story. No threats , short term reward , no conscience, inability to feel or way consequences. listen and learn cos you may meet one. Good luck! excellent video!
I wonder why can't they give them drugs to stimulate these parts of the brain and allow them to feel how they should.
I once used anxiolytics and antidepressants, and after having experienced how it was like to not be anxious or depressed, I could go back easier to that state of mind without the help of drugs.
I guess that if you're a psychopath, the second you're off drugs you won't choose to be vulnerable and emotional again.
I'm amazed how little the studies of psychopathy have developed in such a long time and how scarce the explanations are for the behavior.
It seems to me that it would be beneficial for researchers to be a little bolder and riskier in the way they conduct their experiments, collect their data and interpret their results. A bit more like antisocial, if you will.
The mind is a wonderous maze that America will never decipher because they're too busy chasing wealth and terrorizing others with their spears and clubs like barbarians. You will be reincarnated without your earthly possessions while your weak soul will forever remain an ignorant mediocre one ;)
@VegasSGrimReaper Oh right because it's only America. after living in 5 countries and traveling to 55 I assure you I have never seen materialism in other countries, or that all Americans are materialistic. Ps. That was sarcasm.
"Normal people", what a dreaded thought. It brings to mind images of the masses watching American Idol, beer bellied football watching neandrethals, dumb bimbos shopping for shoes at the almighty mall, Democrats and Republicans bickering over who will rule them next, delusional simpletons like missmonkeyb over there. DISGUSTING! Listen to the last sentence, they're (we're) obviously evolved. Let us not forget that many geniuses were diagnosed as schizos.
It's sad to me that you believe people are as shallow as this shallow perception you seem to have of them is painted, the negativity that you produce once the video's message goes through all your personal filters and that you yourself are shallow enough to believe in what you said. Because, if shallowness and these gross generalizations in the general, "normal" population are repugnant to you, I'd urge you to consider looking into the mirror.
@MrOceanPenguin It's genetically inherited, I recommend book by Andrew Lobaczewski - Political Ponerology where he gives study about examples of pathology when he was in Poland under Nazi occupation, and how the few psychopaths on top infect all society with their inhuman world view and this is what is happening today, the are the source of "evil" through history, they only have lust for power and domination so there are plenty of them in politics like it can be seen in USA and Israel today!
@daddo555 Good points here. Most people, though socially adept are vulnerable as they copy a group view rather than thinking for themselves. Psychopaths exploit the Baboon Troop Culture of most typical humans. Yep USA and Israel especially are good examples of countries where raw Psychopathy is acceptable in some roles.
Absolutely careers involving a power structure seems to draw many psychopaths, especially politics psychopaths make excellent politicians some make good lawyers judges, and others make great salesmen at least the smart psychopaths, as for the dumb ones well they end up going to prison and keep reoffending.
@MrOceanPenguin It's always been us against them - people with conscience against people without it, and they know it and most normal people don't, it isn't about politics, religion, nation, color, race because they can be find in all those categories, it's tactic they use from power positions to divide normal people with their pathological world view like Nazis did in Germany, so they can rule!
@daddo555 You got it. That's the war that goes on. Psychopaths are constantly waging war against us all. Cut them off. Disengage from them. Isolate them. We need to change the way we think and act so their scope for "success" (screwing people) is thwarted.
@Isochest How about rid the planet of them? Cutting off those who have no conscience will not stop people like them. You have to kill them or get someone else who will.
@SQuiRR3LM0nk3y I agree in the sense we are better off without them. Humans and other mammal species exist well in a co-operational way. They are a burden on us allbut will probably always be with us. But we need to be aware how they exploit how we feel and react. In our next stage of evolution the Psychopath will find it more difficult to survive. I find it hard to agree If the last statements are true about using parts of the brain by will: Lack of use the Amygdalas determines much here.
@Isochest I suggest you search for something called "The Lucifer Effect". It explains how fairly normal people can be suggested into doing horrible things.
The Holocaust is Communist Jew war propaganda. No such thing as a plan to genocide "Jews", no Gas Chambers, no Mass Cremations. Those LIES & DECEPTIONS were invented by Jew Psychopaths. These same Psychopaths created Israel, bombed the King David Hotel, Levon Affair deception, attacked the USS Liberty and did 9/11.
@MCAGCC1 Speaking from someone who's been to 11 different European countries personally, you are a lying moron. the Holocaust happened and it's sad that you were lied to like this in what ever left-wing dominated, history changing history class and/or university you attended. I've seen the concentration camps. Multiple ones. I've been in death camps. I've seen gas chambers. I have interviewed multiple WWII vets who were there as well.
@daddo555 This is one of the great astonishing discoveries of history. When psychologists analyzed Nazi war criminals for signs of disorder, they discovered to their amazement that they were generally normal people.
The Nazi horrors were rooted in their bureaucratic machine which could turn normal people into mass murderers: dehumanization, unquestioning obedience, diffusion of responsibility, suppression of information, etc.
I've read Intrator et al, 1997 paper which this movie is based on, and psychopaths actually have larger blood flow to these regios i.e. left and right frontal temporal lobe. so psychopaths actually respond more to emotional stimuli than control patients. also the mean differences in processing of emotional and neutral words in psychopaths are not that different, they may only be significant (less than 0.05), but that would be due to the massive standard deviations. To sum up, this video is wrong
@blugularis there is a distinct difference between those who have antisocial personality disorder and those who are psychopaths - namely the capacity for empathy. Someone who has antisocial personality disorder might be a psychopath, but not all are always psychopaths. Cleckly and Hare's and others work in these areas show how this is so.
@blugularis This doctor, Mr. Hare, is trying to have psychopath be a psychologically accepted definition that differs from the term Antisocial and has its own traits for definition.
In his studies, psychopath usually refers to an active, usually someone with different neurological configuration and not just a personality disorder.
Think of the difference between someone who's suffering from schizophrenia and someone who's simply suffering from a Schizoid or Schizotypal personality disorder.
they don't understand emotions. People who don't feel emotion are like depressed but not. Prior, I had too much activity in the front part, which made me hungry and quick to anger because time moved too slowly for me, but I burnt out. Time is meaningless to me now.
This research is very interesting also from the point of view of those who tend to be religiously self-deluded. The incapacity to differentiate between rational neutral information and irrational emotional information might be a good scientific explanation for why so many seem to be unable to realise that believing in something does not make it true, or having an emotional attachment to something does not make it true either. The probability of genetic link is very high.
people's focus on labels rather than facts, how its considered deep to ponder weather something is 'me,' 'loyal,' 'love' 'liberal,' 'conservative,' 'conscious,' 'feminist,' 'religious,' 'good,' 'right,' 'just,' 'free,' 'a person,' 'alive,' 'true,' 'known,' 'God,'ETC, rather than what it IS!
Sadly the only people who see through life-wasting politics-warping bullcrap, a fog i don't claim to not get lost in) are seemingly 'psychopaths'. Oops?
@Ebvardh i dont mean it as an insult and i dont mean to be rude or anything but i didnt know what else to say. i guess mentaly different or disabled would be better. im not quite sure.
Hervey Cleckley pointed out in his book, The Mask of Sanity that all psychopaths suffer from semantic aphasia, which is backed up by this video...Thanks for posting this -- highly informative and interesting...
although I must admit, I may have a bit of fortune on my side, I demonstrated some sociopathic traits when I was a kid, and remember what I did still, I feel bad about it, so I don't think about it when it's not relevant, but I'm comfortable enough with them now, because I choose not to do them anymore, so it's just a case of been there done that you're nothing new or exciting, I know what it's like on both sides of the fence~
@Ebvardh I've heard about how that's why sociopathy is difficult to diagnose if you try to diagnose younger people lol, still, been there done that, suddenly it's a lot easier to understand a sociopath
@TheTravelfool It's not impossible for them to observe that something else suffers, but if a child is brought up in, say, an abusive environment and he goes and hits a dog and feels better after doing so, that child is not going to pause and ponder the consequences of his abusive copping method. So he'll grow up without being able to consider the suffering of others and his whole view of world will be without those foundations of empathy,
@Nevawake I'm going to go with a no on this one, go back to your grade 10 psychology textbooks and learn more before trying to attribute psychopathy to those people, there's a few things you'll notice about them that makes them rather interesting, but I doubt psychopathic, anyways the way to deal with psychopaths is fairly simple, don't let them get away with anything
@noobler9 Little lesson on Belief children. Nothing can change a persons belief unless you tell them they have cancer. Let them, dont, them people, i doubt, the ways to deal, fairly simple, dont, FULL FUCKEN STOP!!!!
Listen dipshit. Im so fucken far advanced than u on everything to do with the fuken mind and Psychology, life that an Ant crawling in its dirt would,could, surprize me more! in fact your mundane ignorance has drained me. reply some more shit. Woof woof. i like watching football
the only reason I looked videos up on youtube on psychopathy, after having met a definite psychopath, and, well, when you see one, and they're talking to various people, and you arouse their interest
oh boy are they easily seen through I'm personally a bit of a fan of machiavelli in many regards, however there's some of his practices that I shy away from, or would do with great regret
a psychopath uses his ideas as if he can't do anything else, at least, the easily predictable ones haha
@noobler9 Ive met some Dumb People who thought they Knew a Psychopath. It turned out after meeting the so called Psychopath that they were not even close to being one. And the real Nut Job was the Lady, ies, 1 guy who i feel lived in Fear. Brought on id say by ignorance and lack of imagination. If you didnt talk or speak or email or write or act Normal to her, his belief system of what normal was. Then you were crazy. Dumb=Know someone=Belief system=closed discussion. So noobler9 im a Pychopath?
@Nevawake I'm sorry, I used the wrong word, it's so easy at times, sociopath was the word, and a very stupid one
however, we can all notice that the main trend is something of a behavioural pattern that tends towards a fairly egocentrical view, they're delicate if someone understands what they're saying, and rejects it, a sociopath isn't all that different from other people, in the way that they want others to accept their worldview, regular people are more prone "to letting it go, for now"
@noobler9 Oh thanks you for that quiz. Did u like my mind fuck previous response to you? Thats ADD :-) Would you like a Dexed up version of the same thing? amazing. Your welcome. also ever heard of the term u got to be 1 to recognise 1? Be careful now.Our Scars represent to us that the past was real. We live in a primitive time, don't we, Neither savage nor wise. Half measures of the curse of it, any rational society will either kill me or put me to some use.
What's the difference between an internet diagnosis and a real one? Psychiatrists and psychologists base their "opinions" on nothing more then theoretical garbage anyway. A psychiatric diagnosis is nothing more then an educated guess. If you were a sociopath, you wouldn't care that you had no conscience. There is very little physical evidence and no tests.
You can't correctly test a psychopath. They tend to eat your liver with fava beans and a nice Chianti.
But, really, therapy requires submission and cooperation. The psychopath is usually unaware he's being tested because something might be wrong and is too pre-occupated with manipulating the tester that there are no normal human reactions to measure.
Also, the psychologist makes no "guesses". You do. Psychological treatment has little to no involvement by the therapist, it's all you.
I think I might be a benign psychopath. I feel no guilt about manipulating others to further my own goals, yet I try not to hurt people unintentionally. That would be undesirable and cause all kinds of unnecessary problems. Any armchair psychologists care to take a shot at what I might be?
White male.. Name is probably John, or Johhny.. Age of 22years, 3 months and two weeks and 3 days.
Also may I add you like cereal with chocolate milk. Your favourite food is however steak with potatoes.. I wouldn't be surprised if your color of choice is blue?
Oh right, and you're a violent, incredibly dangerous sociopath!
Dude.. No one can diagnose you over the internet, especially not with that little information.
So whaqt do you base this on MsOinker? So are psychopathic people unable to have self awareness because they don't get all warm and touchy when people get together in some sort of emotional orgy attempting to explore feelings? Why is it that you can get psychopathic people with schizotypal abilities enabling them to be able to process on a deep, creative level, yet not waste energy attempting to pretend to connect to people they do not know or have any need to connect to?
To kalexander777: people who are psychopaths do not go around thinking, believing or telling others on YouTube, that they are psychopaths.
Why? Because people who are psychopaths do not have the kind of self awareness or insight that would make them aware of their lack of conscience or empathy. They operate as if they where the normal ones and all the rest of us are crazy because we non psychopaths call their behavior into question!
Psychopath does not mean you have a lack of conscience or empathy. A psychopath of course can tell someone they are a psychopath. You may not be able to notice someone is a psychopath, by simply observation of their behavior.
@MsOinker4 there is someone who definitly...has no clue...there are several types of psychopaths...normaly defined by 4 maingroups...one acts out of fear and the other one out of impulsiv feelings wich top the feelings a normal human would feel...then there is the one who could be called natural predator...in these times lack of empathy can cost your life...remember 200 years ago..it was the other way arround...
@MsOinker4 and there is the one who is even a sort of livestyle today..he has charme knows how to use it and has often no monogam relationships but still has many relationships...now thats the thing you want to be aint it? funny how things turn arround if you know reality?you wouldnt question a rich wll street broker with many womans would you?well he has no empathy at all..but hey..hes rich and cool...he cant be a psychopath..well gues what as you say they wont tell ya on youtube that they are?
@MsOinker4 so before posting some halfknowledge on youtube wich seams to be the kind of crap that you definitly tell evreyone on youtube...at least get some true information...
@MsOinker4 what happens if they know how others think of them because of being told they are fucked up. They do think all the others are fucked up but they know others think they are fucked up
@MsOinker4 Didn't you see the documentary where a psychopath was willingly interviewed, and then had a brain scan at the end to prove that he was legit.
@MsOinker4 I think your conclusion is correct, but the reasoning is wrong. I think they understand they are different from others, they lack empathy. But I think they don't reveal that because it isn't advantageous.
@MsOinker4 What about people who do that only for the sake of making fun of laymens' misuse of the term "psychopath?" Hannibal Lecter is said to be a psychopath, but if you really analyze his character, he seems to be the exact opposite.
@IggyHazard Well if he was a true psychopath he would have killed Clarice. He was a sociopath. Actually the sociopath has a brain tomography which is found in normal people. There is a case of a scientist who was studying sociopaths for 20 years who realized that he himself had the same scan as a sociopath and that Lizzy Borden was an ancestor, but he himself was normal. There must be a trigger to make them violent
@IggyHazard There is a slight distinction between them, though the terms have come to be used synonomously. They share common traits, parasitic behavior, lack of remorse, lack of empathy, but the sociopath is characterized by more outwardly notable chaotic behavior and would be more readily indentifiable as a person with something "wrong" with them.The psychopath is completely devoid of emotion;sociopaths seem to experience only their own.They are both considered Antisocial Personality Disorder.
@fairiebee One thing I've found to be true (and you have to, I know you have) is that many people accused of that (by lamebrain laypersons of the status quo) are really the opposite.
@IggyHazard For shizzle. The general populace would rather accept indoctrination into ignorance based on fear and bias rather than objective knowledge. Plus no one ever looks anything up anymore.
it's honestly very nice having psychopathy. I don't have to worry about idiots when they get hurt, or cry about stupid shit that ya'll regulars do. I'm not a bad person. Everyone see's psychopaths as bad people like serial killer/rapists. Just because we don't have guilt is not our fault, its a brain malfunction. Some people are short, some people are stupid, some people don't give a fuck, are you really gonna hate us, and condemn us to death for having a handicap.
@kalexander777 Frankly not having emotions seems boring. Feeling are what makes things intresting. Is music doesn't create feelings and things aren't fun etc, what's the point of doing anything?
@plasteg Psychopathis exist in all social classes... if someone is socially inept, virginal and or even a fool, that does not exclude them from being a potential psychopath:) So maybe you should stop assuming shit about something you really don't know about and get a grip on reality. Don't come up with a conclusion on something based on your own biased feelings
@Jesusmalaark1 Look at the comment rating, cuntwipe. A psychopath wouldn't be trawling youtube telling everybody that he was one. Sam Vaknin is a fucking moron, and the legitimacy of the guy's "psychopathy" is heavily disputed. You know this anyway. Now, back to the bedroom and masturbate.
@plasteg People who don't want to believe the truth can dispute it all they want, the guy had a brain scan and was assessed through the PCL and was formally diagnosed as a Psychoath with a score of 18 out of 24.
@Jesusmalaark1 "People who don't want to believe the truth can dispute it all they want." I agree. I really shouldn't have been hostile to you for doing so. Vaknin pulled off an elaborate con job. He's an asshole alright, but no psychopath.
@plasteg Lol, you fool...isn't conning and manipulating perceptions of others a classic sign of a narrcisistic psychopath? He was officially diagnosed, there is no disputing the FACT that vaknin IS a psychopath, which totally blows your idiotic theory that a psychopath cannot be aware of his or her own condition.
as much as some psychopaths are trouble, we can't kill them off. They are people, afterall. That would be like the holocaust of psychology. It would be completely wrong.

If we ever create the technology to know if an unborn baby's brain shows that the child will be a psychopath should be a choice of the mother to abort or a necessity for the safety of society?
TheTravelfool 6 months ago
@TheTravelfool Good question. Abortion can have serious ramifications on the body of the woman and may induce diminished fertility later in life. Psychopaths, in my opinion, upon committing a crime and being diagnosed with this disorder, should be systematically exterminated. But not in the womb.

@JMorde999 Interesting and honestly I agree. In one of my courses (I'm going for a doctorate) this became a hot debate and I was related to Hitler as yes, it would be systematically killing off a certain group of people. However, I think one has to be a pure idiot to compare the systematic killing of psychopaths to that of Jewish or handicap people.

@TheTravelfool Most people have difficulty dissociating their emotions from pure logic, so I can understand how they have come to that conclusion.

@WarmongerWW3 In evolutionary terms, psychopathy is short term smart, but long term stupid. A parasite which is excessively aggressive destroys its' host, which means the parasite dies with it.
Psychopaths are only biologically fit, when they are in a social system that they have designed and are able to dominate. In any scenario which is based on robust, policing reciprocity on the other hand, they are at a severe disadvantage.
petrus4 2 weeks ago
@petrus4 psychopathy represents an alternative evolutionary strategy consisting primarily of "cheating" behaviors (Barr & Quinsey, 2004; Crawford & Salmon,
2002). game theory and evolution can explain why psychopaths (at low frequencies) may be able to successfully maintain cheating as an evolutionarily adaptive strategy. (Glenn AL, Raine A, 2009)

I once used anxiolytics and antidepressants, and after having experienced how it was like to not be anxious or depressed, I could go back easier to that state of mind without the help of drugs.
I guess that if you're a psychopath, the second you're off drugs you won't choose to be vulnerable and emotional again.

I'm amazed how little the studies of psychopathy have developed in such a long time and how scarce the explanations are for the behavior.

I've read Intrator et al, 1997 paper which this movie is based on, and psychopaths actually have larger blood flow to these regios i.e. left and right frontal temporal lobe. so psychopaths actually respond more to emotional stimuli than control patients. also the mean differences in processing of emotional and neutral words in psychopaths are not that different, they may only be significant (less than 0.05), but that would be due to the massive standard deviations. To sum up, this video is wrong

@blugularis there is a distinct difference between those who have antisocial personality disorder and those who are psychopaths - namely the capacity for empathy. Someone who has antisocial personality disorder might be a psychopath, but not all are always psychopaths. Cleckly and Hare's and others work in these areas show how this is so.
basicallyShane 1 year ago
@blugularis This doctor, Mr. Hare, is trying to have psychopath be a psychologically accepted definition that differs from the term Antisocial and has its own traits for definition.
In his studies, psychopath usually refers to an active, usually someone with different neurological configuration and not just a personality disorder.
Think of the difference between someone who's suffering from schizophrenia and someone who's simply suffering from a Schizoid or Schizotypal personality disorder.

You can't correctly test a psychopath. They tend to eat your liver with fava beans and a nice Chianti.
But, really, therapy requires submission and cooperation. The psychopath is usually unaware he's being tested because something might be wrong and is too pre-occupated with manipulating the tester that there are no normal human reactions to measure.
Also, the psychologist makes no "guesses". You do. Psychological treatment has little to no involvement by the therapist, it's all you.

No, you're not a psychopath. You're a scared, socially inept, virginal little fool who likes the idea of being dangerous.
Get a grip of your life.

@plasteg Psychopathis exist in all social classes... if someone is socially inept, virginal and or even a fool, that does not exclude them from being a potential psychopath:) So maybe you should stop assuming shit about something you really don't know about and get a grip on reality. Don't come up with a conclusion on something based on your own biased feelings

@Jesusmalaark1 Look at the comment rating, cuntwipe. A psychopath wouldn't be trawling youtube telling everybody that he was one. Sam Vaknin is a fucking moron, and the legitimacy of the guy's "psychopathy" is heavily disputed. You know this anyway. Now, back to the bedroom and masturbate.

@plasteg People who don't want to believe the truth can dispute it all they want, the guy had a brain scan and was assessed through the PCL and was formally diagnosed as a Psychoath with a score of 18 out of 24.

@Jesusmalaark1 "People who don't want to believe the truth can dispute it all they want." I agree. I really shouldn't have been hostile to you for doing so. Vaknin pulled off an elaborate con job. He's an asshole alright, but no psychopath.

@plasteg Lol, you fool...isn't conning and manipulating perceptions of others a classic sign of a narrcisistic psychopath? He was officially diagnosed, there is no disputing the FACT that vaknin IS a psychopath, which totally blows your idiotic theory that a psychopath cannot be aware of his or her own condition.
