I think autism is related to psychopathy and I think Sherlock Holmes is an actual psychopath. That is why Sherlock says to Moriarti: You are the only person I can relate to but I don’t agree with your methods. Not an exact quote but more or less. His sister is a psychopath so it must run in the family. But its a fiction so we can’t say it proves a genetic basis, we can only say that the fiction portrays him as a psychopath.
I am anything but a regular kid and if I am that is truly a scary thought for America.
An example would be in my younger years, before feminism, many girls approached me for sex but I felt an inability to connect with them and wanted to get away. People accused me of being a homosexual but I think it was mainly due to being raised Christian and my institutionalized shame of lust. The fact that I would lust would make me feel that I was some kind of evil person and that it made me feel disgusting all that’s wrong with the world. And yes it was an absolutely insane way to look at the world, but brainwashing has its effects. And looking at shows like American Psycho, he has similar tendencies of my earlier days. That doesn’t mean I am the same as him. I would never murder a prostitute because I appreciate their willingness to have sex with me. And returning a favor with punishment is simply illogical and stupid. But if some man, who looks disgusting to me, was giving me a hard time, hurling insults to me, you bet your balls what I would do if there were no laws or punishments. Even when they are not insulting me, sometimes the voice of people just irritates me and fills me with hate. Like it feels like its giving me an aneurysm. But I know it is morally wrong to kill them so I don’t. But when I hear annoying music on the radio, I feel no moral obligations. I feel like its a community service if the DJ were to just so happen, let’s say, out of happenstance, to fall out of that ivory tower he sits upon. Because they spam the air waves with songs that rape my ears. And defending against rape is self-defense. Not saying I would do it. But if it happened on its own I would feel some kind of bit of relief perhaps.
I know some psychopaths and most of them have a tough time with relationships. This seems elementary since not feeling connected to people, and having to fake having emotions might give you a tougher time. I didn’t know not having paranoia was a prerequisite. I’ve always pictured them as cold and calculating with some degree of fear, esp. paranoid. Someone who has no fear just seems like some kind of wild mentally ill person to me, possibly a masochist. I don’t think Evil Kenivel was a psychopath but was some kind of masochist with mental health issues. I don’t think most of those mass murderers were psychopaths, but just psychotics who couldn’t control their emotions and didn’t really fear the consequences. I would say being paranoid actually makes the psychopath, as they tend to carefully thing about things in terms of the consequences. Personally although it was a good movie, I couldn’t buy the Heath Ledger Joker as a true incarnation of the clown. He seemed too much like a Mary Sue, almost being guided by some supernatural force. That scene with the school buses was simply unbelievable. Could not ever happen. The more realistic joker would be the 1992 animated series. He doesn’t kill randoms and he is more sane and rational. Everything he does is like a puzzle piece fitting exactly into place. He is just a victim of the city and a hedonist who wants to make it big like Batman. He is mainly driven by envy, hatred, and contempt. He is more like a feline (felon) and fitting with the natural world. Ie. he is more like Bowser.
One thing we can agree on though is that Ecmandu doesn’t know anything about psychopaths. He just makes up random things and cites it as fact. It is actually funny to listen to. He says that if you wear a ring you are a psychopath, etc. That if you are a normal person who doesn’t focus on negative world news 24/7, you are a psychopath. I would just call those people ignorant people. Kind of the opposite of a psychopath. Because I used to be that person who would dwell on negative world news, this was before I was a psychopath. And it would drag me down and make me feel masochistic. But then I saw the funny side. Now negative news does only one of three things: Nothing, makes me angry, or makes me laugh. I can’t even remember the last time I felt sad about some random news story. After a while you get numb to it. And that is why I said earlier, this world breeds psychopaths, it breeds them like candy. Anyone who focuses on negative news 24/7 will become a psychopath. I can prove it. Actually I can’t, but it’s something Ecmandu would say and I wanted to use one of his lines.
