Re: HOW to SPOT a SOCIOPATH! The 10 SIGNS you NEED to KNOW!!
I have a problem judging some peoples intentions sometimes. When it happens the feeling I get is intimidation which quickly turns to anger. Many times the other person was just exercising their prerogative with no concern for me whatsoever... the aggression I felt was all in my head

Is this sociopathic behavior? How do I conquer this problem and learn to shrug it off before turning to anger?

Re: HOW to SPOT a SOCIOPATH! The 10 SIGNS you NEED to KNOW!!
One of the more offensive duties of being an investigative journalist is taking out the trash -- exposing liars, fraudsters, con artists and scammers for the people they truly are. Each time we investigate a sociopath, we find that they always have a little cult group following of spellbound worshippers who consider that particular sociopath to be a "guru" or "prophet."

Sociopaths are masters at influence and deception. Very little of what they say actually checks out in terms of facts or reality, but they're extremely skillful at making the things they say sound believable, even if they're just making them up out of thin air. Here, I'm going to present quotes and videos of some legendary sociopaths who convinced everyday people to participate in mass suicides. And then I'm going to demonstrate how and why similar sociopaths are operating right now... today.

Why cover this subject? I've seen a lot of people get hoodwinked, scammed or even harmed by sociopaths, and it bewilders me that people are so easily sucked into their destructive influence. I want to share with NaturalNews readers the warning signs of sociopaths so that you can spot them, avoid them, and save yourself the trouble of being unduly influenced by them.

#1) Sociopaths are charming
#2) Sociopaths are more spontaneous and intense than other people
#3) Sociopaths are incapable of feeling shame, guilt or remorse
#4) Sociopaths invent outrageous lies about their experiences
#5) Sociopaths seek to dominate others and "win" at all costs

Tip: adopting sociopathic behaviours can give you a competitive advantage on life. in this highly competitive world its clearly an effective strategy
 Quoting: Charlie Frost


Actually, they are considered inteligent but I think they are quite dumb.

They don't think in line with the nature of Life.

They are totaly fake.

A waste of existence, actually.

So, if you want to be "smart", think really well in what you are emulating.

It is dumb as fuck! (but might keep you alive, in this completely stupid world of ours.)

There are good cops and bad cops, just as there are good sociopaths and bad ones.

You're too hung up, guy.

I know many sociopaths, and am probably one myself. I know borderline aspbergers, narcissists and good ole fashioned douchebags.

Of these people, only one or two are classifiably malignant.

The rest are just trying to live like everyone else.

Also, very irresponsible to put psychopaths and sociopaths in the same sentence.

They are radically different animals.
 Quoting: Lada D



^^ THIS ^^ is spot on! Anyone who has even cursory knowledge of these disorders or read psychiatric literature knows the difference. After working in the medical field for 25 years -- and just encountering these types in my 5 decades -- I know about them.

#1 on that list is not necessarily true because I know a few sociopaths who are NOT "charming." Maybe since "charming" is a relative term it's in the eye of the beholder. A relative of mine is a total asshole (to family, not to business associates) but definitely a sociopath.

Re: HOW to SPOT a SOCIOPATH! The 10 SIGNS you NEED to KNOW!!
This website summarizes some of the common features of descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths.


Glibness and Superficial Charm

Manipulative and Conning
They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.

Grandiose Sense of Self
Feels entitled to certain things as "their right."

Pathological Lying
Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.

Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.

Shallow Emotions
When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises.

Incapacity for Love

Need for Stimulation
Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.

Callousness/Lack of Empathy
Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others' feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.

Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.

Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency
Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet "gets by" by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc.

Irresponsibility/Unreliability
Not concerned about wrecking others' lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.

Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity
Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts.

Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle
Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively.

Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.

Other Related Qualities:

Contemptuous of those who seek to understand them
Does not perceive that anything is wrong with them
Authoritarian
Secretive
Paranoid
Only rarely in difficulty with the law, but seeks out situations where their tyrannical behavior will be tolerated, condoned, or admired
Conventional appearance
Goal of enslavement of their victim(s)
Exercises despotic control over every aspect of the victim's life
Has an emotional need to justify their crimes and therefore needs their victim's affirmation (respect, gratitude and love)
Ultimate goal is the creation of a willing victim
Incapable of real human attachment to another
Unable to feel remorse or guilt

Maybe you are threatened by free thinkers. Maybe a person labeled "Sociopath" has nothing wrong with them and tells no lies, they just believe in a deeper reality then you could ever perceive from your shallow perspective. Some may be the wild charmers that spread venom and lies...or maybe you are just paranoid.
