Psychopaths/sociopaths...I've been interested in what makes them tick for some time. I will include a link that is really very good at explaining much of what happens with them.
For instance, virtually every expert on the subject agrees that there is a minimum of 4% of the population that falls into that category. That is 1 in every 25 people or 360 million of them in the world. There are bound to be a number of them right here on PJ. They are not all serial killers but they are all destructive in their own ways.
The people who do not fall into that category simply cannot relate to those who do. That is a big reason why logic fails to affect a lot of thinking because it's a reality that goes beyond our imaginations. The people who are psychopathic know exactly how to use that fact in their manipulations because they know that the rest of us simply cannot relate so we can't believe that people would do what they do.
It's an unfortunate fact that so many of these people manage to rise to positions of power and influence. Since they don't much care who they hurt to get what they want, they do get what they want. They are the ones that pull the strings of the puppets.
