"…and do terrible things. That's not what happens in a psychiatric office or in a hospital." I mean, i was put in an empty room against my will and unable to pee because the lady wouldn't answer the stupid call button. Had a concussion and bad cut on my foot that nobody was giving medical attention to. Yeah, you tell me the psychiatric ward is to help people, I'll laugh in your face

It is interesting that you speculate about psycopathy being one strategy for survival. I remember reading some sci fi novel where the author (maybe Larry Niven?) explored that. The setting was a future world where all mental illness is controlled, but at some point, the Earth is threatened by some alien invasion; and the authorities take this one character off his drugs so that he can come up with crazy but intelligent strategies to thwart the aliens. I don't know what his pathology is -maybe he has severe paranoia (clearly, I don't know much about psychology) . The author doesn't provide a narrative of what this guy does except as a flashback when he is back on an even keel, and his lady colleague recounts what an unrecognizable person he was and how they eventually had to get him back on his meds, because he was really going off the rails.

If nothing else, the Godfather really reveals and explores how, at their individual cores, government and crime are really the same thing. They're formed for the purpose of creating protection for certain communities–and both seek a sense of reason and balance where a multitude of people are concerned. What mostly separates them is which set of arbitrary rules & justifications they're willing, or not willing, to employ.
I make my point?

13:26 don’t fool yourselves into thinking that the majority of wealthy people aren’t exactly the same. It isn’t just “some people”. It’s practically all of them.

12:40 Instead of saying what it isn't try the truth the next time.
Spend the same amount of time to tell us something of what the psychiatric care is like.

Psychopaths know how to interact with the world it's how they get their victims. Also, how they fool (distract) family and neighbors.

I read somewhere that there was this argument that Jeffrey dahmer was not a psychopath. It was something like an addiction and desperation where he felt empathy, love and among other things for his victims but he had some sort of addiction or desperation or something. Can't remember much said but it made sense.

I really don't like, that he has his coat unbuttoned…
@railgap
April 9, 2026 at 4:33 am
Too bad 'psychopath' is an undefined term of criminology, and is not a term of psychology. How you figure to diagnose someone you can't interview because they are not real?
A more interesting question to me is: why is Dr. Bender doing this instead of practicing medicine?? 🤣

What if dude behind counter was also psychopath and shot chigurh in the balls for fun…..below the counter shotgun……thatd be quite a twist

There hasn't been a Batman or superhero movie that has topped The Dark Knight on quality and quality of acting.

Do you think it possible for a Psychiatrist to be a psychopath?
@osainista
April 9, 2026 at 4:33 am
Dr. Bender, it seems they've set you up to fail. Anyone who's seen A Clockwork Orange knows exactly what's going on in this scene. They've successfully reversed the initial anti-violent conditioning (leaving Alex defenseless in a violent society) and returned him to his previous violent state. His responses to the slides show that the reversal worked.
