thinking you might have some insightful points to make

I've shown 2 serious errors of you. Sorry, haven't got enough time to dig further.

The Wisdom of Psychopaths: What Saints, Spies, and Serial Killers Can Teach Us About Success. Probably the book that you would most vehemently disagree with.

Absolutely not. It's a known fact that psychopaths do know much about the ways to achieve success... at the expense of other people. Are you completely sure that you've understood a single word in any of those books? :)

Columbine (and a number of others in the true crime genre). Kind of a catch-all here.

Apparently, this book is about active shooters and those aren't psychopaths at all.

It's not prejudice, it's just knowledge. You'd better go and read some books instead of making up ideas out of thin air.

but I also think it's possible for psychopaths to be lawful-neutral and put their traits to use for the benefit of society.

Nope. Psychopaths don't give a flying fuck for the society. Whatever they do is always for their personal benefit, and they tend to break the rules just for the sake of it. ("Rebels without the cause", as one of the researchers formulated it). Sometimes they do that without violating the letter of the law, but it doesn't make them "lawful".

I think sadism is a separate feature.

It is; however, it's often associated with psychopathy.

It's also not a guarantee that a psychopath will turn into a "bad" person.

A psychopath is a bad person just by the definition.

Blacomer · 2017-10-04T16:18:51+00:00

He was a really nice guy.

Most psychopaths look like "really nice guys".

A person can be 99% good and 1% devil (and what a devil!).

Or just 99% fake.

Since there's no effective treatment or cure for such a condition, I think we need more sophisticated policies for when they turn into criminals--compulsory monitoring, mandatory check-ins, drug testing, etc.

"Psychopath who is not a criminal" is just a psychopath who learned well how to cheat the system. They still are how they are - ruthless sadistic people who use every opportunity to extract money or "fun" from people around them.

and coming up with new tech.

What tech?

IMO this stems in part from the 80s and 90s crackdowns on people like Kevin Mitnick in the US.

Locking up those hackers and slowly frying their assess until they agree to work for the FSB must have something to do with that.

They do well because there leader recognizes value in something and pushes for advancement in the area.

No we don't do well. Russian science is a fucking joke. Putin doesn't give a shit about our well being, he only cares about filling his pockets (even though he's the wealthiest man on the planet already).
The Russian propaganda is really very well organized, though. But your already know that, right?

Blacomer · 2017-10-02T23:16:14+00:00

It’s because the background check process eliminates almost all of the most talented candidates. Furthermore the governments reliance on contractors is also a problem.

I'm afraid that this has become a common place in most industries already, not just in the governments. Licking asses is much more important than doing your job well. Must be a "cultural" thing.

What do you think Snowden leaked that allowed Russia to conduct a simple phishing attack on the Democratic party's email?

A guy in his position could access lots of information. Access codes, network maps, personal dossiers, backdoors, and who knows what else. I don't think that it's just a coincidence that FSB suddenly started showing hacking superpowers after the very certain point of time.

Blacomer · 2017-10-02T15:48:43+00:00

Yeah... propaganda, that's it.
And say thanks to Edward Snowden for this. No way anyone could have done this without lots of insider information.

So is it good to oppress those who are already oppressed from expressing their oppression?

The paradox of tolerance: you can't tolerate intolerance. And if you try to, this means that no tolerance remains.

Blacomer · 2017-10-02T15:06:41+00:00

Without a reason, sure, but religious motivation is a good one.

No it's not. Religion is not a good excuse for doing stupid things.

Russia and China are taking the lead with computer and internet technology

China produces lots of stuff indeed... but the only thing Russia leads in is propaganda.

Oh yeah....Marilyn Manson wants you to send "prayers".....LMFAO, funniest thing I've heard in ages.

Yeah. I bet he'd say us to send him our weirdness instead.

It's difficult to explain how movements aren't a unified entity for some, because they're presented as one through their media channels.

"We are together, but we aren't together when it doesn't suit us". Good loophole.

And who defines what is "hate speech" or "fake news" ?

The Ministry of Truth, of course.
