The Psychopaths

Most psychopaths have never killed anyone. Not physically. Their pleasure comes by hurting other people emotionally, mentally, economically.

Psychopaths take pleasure by oppressing people.  To mentally or emotionally abuse people who can not fight back gives them sufficient satisfaction.

Psychopaths ‘fit’ into society. Many are extremely successful. This is because they are not hobbled by emotions, a sense of right or wrong, or any of the restrictions others perceive.

They can do anything and never feel remorse because they are incapable of feeling remorse.

A wacko like Charles Manson is a text book example of a psychopath. But most will not be diagnosed as they don’t physically kill anyone.  They mess up people’s lives, but leave them alive to suffer.

The Boss From Hell is a psychopath whose thrill is demeaning his workers, primarily those who are smarter than he is.

He runs an office as a slave master ran a plantation. All of his ‘slaves’ are treated with varying degrees of contempt.

He demands that everyone be at work at 8:30. On some occasions he does not arrive until 9:30. No one can get into the office until he arrives. He practically has orgasm seeing them lined up on the road.

On occasion he will arrive at 8:00 and watch the clock so he can berate anyone who is five minutes late.

When he doesn’t want to pay a staff member, he has all sorts of excuses, from breaking a computer to taking a sick day, because he gets pleasure out of knowing he holds them to ‘ransom’.

He behaves as if he is brilliant, stealing the work of others and taking credit for it. He has a way of entering a room in this mock humble style. And is always late.

The world must wait for him.

He doesn’t want to hear the sound of of other’s voices. People bore him. Everything bores him except the gal he hasn’t has sex with yet.

Although married and a father many times, he goes after homely females because they are easy. Having sex with women is important to him. Cheating on his wife means nothing to him.

He will lie, he will trick, he will create burdens for his staff. He will insult, he will demean. IIt does not matter that urgent work is sitting while he spews his venom. The most important thing in his life is hurting other people, not the work.

There are far more psychopaths than we have come to assume.

Many of us have been tricked by those we trusted who show no remorse.

Just because they didn’t kill ten people or cannibalize their room mate does not mean they are not psychopaths.
