    Pretty easilsy explained:

    Psychopathy from a marxist pov is not a problem as people who are in the west stigmatized for their traits, systematically discriminated and moralized against are an asset in socialist systems.

    Think about it. Psychopathy is not a binary thing. It is an amalgamation of many spectra of more or less developed traits. Westerners often think our science is somehow “better” or “correct”. It isnt. Its just a bunch of dudes (no women) figuring shit out and giving themselves airs.

    This leads to the conclusion that " psychopath" is a slur in and of itself. It is another chauvinist function.

    And if you have understood that, you understand that we are talking about normal people who have been born or nurtured into a situation where they have reduced empathy, hightened impulsivity, reduced fear, etc.

    These people are excellent surgeons, mountain climbers, etc. In a socialist environment, they get what they need to exist well and thrive while being a conatructive part of society.

    For those who still believe the myth of absolute evil: that is not a thing. Its a horror storry to sell weapons. Yes, it is possible that one goes off the path of constructivity, they get into a mental hospital and help, maybe training, we’ll see.

    Currently, the west is training roughly a billion people to become raging narcissists, sociopaths and so on. The west (ie capitalism) and its people at the top are objectively evil and they need to go.

      The West encourages the dysfunction and malignancy of so called disorders. Ive heard it said and I agree that in general CEOs and other executives lean sociopathic, if not psychopathic, because the asocial characteristics of this behavior are emphasized encouraged and awarded in those spaces. Whereas a socio/psychopath without power is liable to take out the asocial conditioning of capitalism on their own communities.

      Certified good posting, this put to words some more complicated thoughts I’ve been dwelling on while also broadening my perspective on the whole topic. Makes me want to get into an entirely new subject of reading. Banger job.
