There is another species living among us, that its just like us. If you see them, you think they are exactly like you. If you talk to them, 99% of the time you think they are exactly like you.
But they are not us.
Psychopaths have no consciousness. They dont have empathy, they dont care about any kind of life. They dont care about their own children. They dont care about their own parents. They are fearless predators.
But if they dont want to kill me, whats the problem with them? They are everywhere. Politics? Hell YEAH! Top corporations? Yes. These people are actually deciding whats the best for you, your children. A LOT of politicians out there are psychos. Wall street! Lover that simply became gay? Co worker bullying you? Your partner, ex? Your father? ...
Psychopaths can explain almost every freaking conspiracy out there and why they are possible. Why we shouldnt trust everyone, specially governments. I believe you can actually say that they are the cause for most of our problems.

... xanax, prozac, possibly valium, and a healthy dose of risperdal should set you good.
oh, and look up in a medical codex what psychopathy really is, because people don't suddenly become gay!! they're coming out of the closet
Uhm, nooooo.
Psycopaths, are not another species. They are ill.
You, are also ill. Paranoia is a hell of an illness too.
Psychopaths can explain almost every freaking conspiracy out there
Close, you mean "Psychopaths can explain almost every freaking conspiracy theory out there." Because when it comes to conspiracy theories, it's usually psychopaths who believe in them.
Psychopaths have no consciousness.
So, are they asleep all the time, or are they just totally unaware of everything?
THis is not all crazy... 1% of the worlds popuation is a psycopath. 4% of ceos are psycopaths but if they are involved with any conpiracys its probably fraud or somthin boring like that.Also 25% of the prisonspop.
heard all that on john stewart
Traits of psychopathy:
- Sexual promiscuity
- Pathological lying
- Lack of empathy, remorse, or guilt
- Impulsiveness, irresponsibility, lack of foresight
- Grandiose sense of self-worth
- Failure to accept responsibility for own actions
- Glibness and superficial charm
Sounds like a lot of politicians and CEOs for sure.

That's at one out of eight correct. Time to consult Wikipedia.

And now we go from a great misunderstanding of psychology to CSTDT.
"Psychopaths have no consciousness"
Hehe, you mean conscience, maybe?
Also, paranoia the destroyer.
If they had no consciousness, they'd be out cold, and therefore unable to be "fearless predators."
Psychopaths aren't "another species," they're just humans with a serious mental illness. I think the word you needed here was *sociopaths,* not psychopaths. Now, I would have no problem believing that many people in power today are sociopaths. *Especially* politicians and Wall Street.
When I was looking around and found this, I could have SWORN it was going to be about the Reptilians or some shit. It really went in a weird direction.
God, what the FUCK?? Now they've got me saying that NOT having reptilians is weird!!
I have to agree most of this guy says, even though:
1. I think you mean "sociopath"
2. they're not a different species, they just need help
3. Paranoia is a hell of a problem too, you should know...
@ Andy Onymous
If I hadn't seen the "Traits of Psychopathy" heading, I'd have thought you were describing the Republican party.
Of course, that would include most CEOs, so this OP's not all that far off.
Is this a conspiracy theory or an ANTI-conspiracy theory?
Psychopaths can explain almost every freaking conspiracy out there and why they are possible.
Depending on context that mayu be saying that conspiracy theories can be traced to just loose affiliations of ruthless bastards. It's not a bad theory, really.
Hey all, just wanted to tell you that the statement "Psychopaths can explain almost every freaking conspiracy out there and why they are possible" does NOT criticize actual conspiracy theorists.
I submitted this, so I know that he most definitely IS blaming all conspiracies on "Psychopaths", which he also claims are literally a DIFFERENT SPECIES that have different brains and physiology. Also they apparently have no need for sleep or consciousness(!?) or sexuality, and just use sexuality to be manipulative as it serves their purposes.
I would have included this, but it was buried in a vast pile of bullshit that was necessary for context but was too long to include.
Follow the link, it's rather amusing.
i think he read the excellent Blindsight by peter watts and decided it was nonfiction. as it both had vampires, and spaceships in it, this is an impressive dedication to batshittery
was a good book - if you like bleak hard science fiction. the man even put in references and made up a scientificly plausible reasons for vampires to actually exist.
It's CTSTDT because it's assuming a conspiracy of psychopaths in every conspiracy.
You can tweak it to make it rational: ie "psychopaths are disproportionately CEOs and that can explain the unethical behavior of their respective companies" or "what appears to be conspiracies can be better explained by psychopaths or others acting independently serving their own best interest"
But as stated it's a conspiracy theory. Glad we all saw that John Stewart interview. (and they say daily show isn't news...)
"Psychopaths have no consciousness."
Well, if they're comatose, what are you worrying about?
"Psychopath" is considered a pejorative term you ignorant fuck.
If you call people names I'll call you names too you brainwashed, uneducated twat.
I...I actually find myself kindly disposed to this.
Not because it's correct--it's not, since psychopaths are perfectly self-aware, fully-conscious humans--but because completely psychopathic people often seem to have thought processes that are utterly alien to those who are even remotely normal. And it turns out that a total lack of a functioning conscience coupled with the an utter lack of normal human empathy can actually be something of an advantage in certain areas of life when combined with high intelligence, like in pretty much every last government in history, ever. Or in the business world. Oliver Stone had plenty of real-life examples on whom to base Gordon Gekko. And in every last crisis, in every disaster ever, no matter what it is or what caused it, there's going to be at least a few soulless psychopathic cocksuckers right there at the center of it all doing their dead-level best to profit off it in some way, fucking over everyone around them, and trying to amplify it, to crank the misery up to eleven and then break off the knob, just so that whatever it is turns out as horribly as possible for every last remaining one of us...sometimes because that's the path to wealth and power they've chosen, but sometimes just because they can. Arms dealers are a case in point. And that's not even counting the disasters that people themselves engineered for personal gain.
I'm not going to read the original thread, since I'm pretty sure further posts are going to be crawling with teh stoopids, but...yeah.
Well, the thing is, you don't need to be a psychopath or a sociopath to act like one.
You know the old saying, "When fighting monsters take care not to become one yourself?"
Trite words, I know, but it serves to show that a lack of empathy can be learned.
After all, if you spend so much time thinking that your enemy is a monster, it's only natural that you're going to lose empathy for them.
Well, he's right to some extent. Psychopaths do fit in well with business and politics.
i think by "no consciousness" he meant "no conscience", however.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
