@scubatuba1083 firstable statistics dont have a thing to do here, "93% adult male psychopaths are in jail", because most real psychopaths are under the radar, and not in jail lol. So u cant go by statistics here. And besides I believe most peoples idea of a psychopath is wrong, like u have a murderer and instantly that means psychopath. "empathy is what allows us to be good people" empathy has 2 forms, affective empathy = instantly feeling the feeling of another person - which psychopaths lack, and cognitive empathy = putting urself in the shoes of another person, showing understanding and giving sympathy. Anyone is capable of doing that. A psychopath might not feel anything when u tell them ur grandma died, but that doesnt mean they cant give u a hug. And doesnt actions judge are we good or bad. So i will say not having that kind of empathy makes it easier to commit crimes because ur conscience isnt stopping you, but just lacking empathy doesnt instantly make u a bad person. im not completely disagreeing with u, i agree that someone like that is Hard to trust and all, but give them a chance I mean they are basically deffective, they didnt choose to be like that.
Also i suppose i can change my original comment from "most psychopaths are not bad people" to "most psychopaths are not killers and criminals".
