The real war raging in the world is the war waged by psychopaths and their followers(ignorant/deluded/sheeple,hedonist) against healthy, normal people.
A psychopath is not what you have heard about in the media: the official characterization of a psychopath was modeled by Dr. Robert Hare and the diagnostic for measuring it called the HARE-40, but it really just identifies a cluster of tendencies which psychopaths often have.
A psychopath is really someone with a very narcissistic personality, limited or no empathy, and a total inner disregard for normal social values as well as the feelings or happiness of others. They lack a real understanding of the consequences of their actions, which is why they are often characterized as impulsive.
These individuals are no more or less intelligent than any of us, but the intelligent ones are often very successful, often because they are willing to “go so far.”
This behavior is nothing to admire, and their lack of limits is pushing the world and humanity to its limits. These people are the ones pushing dysfunctional values on us through the TV, and reinforcing them in groups (for instance in a corporation).
Their lack of ethics (or excessively self-centered ethics) allows them to pursue profits very effectively regardless of the costs to others, which is why studies indicate there are more psychopaths among corporate executives than in the normal population: not because they are smarter.
They only thrive as long as they keep us fragmented.
Be empathetic to those who have not yet woken up, try to help them understand instead of forcing what you have figured out on them.Reprint
