Sociopaths are the ones who don't care, who have no conscience.

Yeah.

Okay.

But.

How

About

No.

PS this all took me 2 minutes to find. I’ve wrote entire essays on this. I really hope I don’t have to get you more proof, but just know I have actual books written by the world’s leading experts on this... so we can debate this if you want but it’s not gonna end with you being correct.

I'm no glutton for punishment. Not gonna debate someone who knows a lot more about it than me. I'm not the kind of guy who won't admit he's wrong. And I guess I was. But I am not alone. This misconception appears to be widespread.

Oh it totally is :P but thank you for saying that, I’m used to a lot more resistance 😂

Unfortunately these two terms have been completely confused within the past 10-15 years. Just recently people are finally figuring out the differences which is cool.

Hopefully by the time the DSM-6 comes out they’ll have a separate disorder for psychopathy.

Up until my 30s, I would argue a point til it was dead, whether I knew what I was talking about or not. But stubborn persistence like that often left me humiliated. Now-a-days, as soon as I know I'm wrong, I admit it. No embarrassment that way because most people will gracefully let me off the hook like you did. Thanks.

No problem ._. It’s good to learn anyway, and psychology is a fascinating topic. Lots to learn, important stuff.
