It’s not really a factor for my voting preference, as Israel is a proxy-nation of the US. If Kamala wins, Gazans die. If Trump wins, MORE Gazans die. We’re not getting the heat for it, Israel is. So meh. I don’t value human life much anyways. We’re all still violent apes who do what we want, and when there are rules against it, we break them and use violence anyhow. At this point, I’m kind of numb to it. I’ll protect those close to me, everyone not close to me idgaf. If it starts affecting me or my own, I’ll start caring.
I guarantee you have no fucking clue what the word even means in a medical context; because I’ve not given you enough information in the slightest to be even close to making that kind of diagnosis.
Sociopaths can develop attachments to those close to them, usually based more on personal benefit/gain but they sometimes confuse this with genuine emotional attachment.
Though yes, I’m not making an actual medical diagnosis.
I have no horse in this race, I just wanted to stop by and say sociopathy is not a diagnosis. You’re looking for Antisocial Personality Disorder. Laypeople poorly use those terms trying to differentiate someone’s disregard for right and wrong from someone else’s.
Now that I’ve come in here and unloaded my nerd-ass “Umm actually” bullshit, I’ll let you get back to talking shit about willful idiots.
Admittedly, as I an a lay person, using a commonly understood term in a social context does seem more productive/efficient than using the proper medical term, then explaining it.
It’s sort of like how we say people will vote for Harris or trump when in actuality they are voting for electors, but everyone (well, except for a worrying number of Republican crazies and a disgraced former president) understands them to be the same thing.
This guy thinks we need to be an EXPERT to be able to judge clearly visible patterns, WOO boy. Wait 'till I tell you about the color of the sky! I’ll be a meteorologist or some shit next!

Until then, shoot me some more memes.
To each their own but I think this is fucking abhorrent and almost textbook sociopathy.

The word you’re looking for is misanthrope.

Neat, good to know the real term.

That’s fair! It’s just one of my favorite ones to chime in with. No offense was meant
Some taken at first, none now. Especially as I imagine you see that incorrect application thrown across the internet with reckless abandon!
Sociopathy was absolutely a diagnosis until the DSM decided to fuck up a whole host of mental issues by combining them all into one vague term.
Edgelord is the word.
Oh I like it. I don’t mind being a lord. Let’s gooo.
Expert in geo politics AND psychology. We gots ourselves a real one here.

Ah. Done his own research, I see.
Well, that about wraps ‘er up, dunnit.
That’s it, shows over folks.
