What a quote, “The highest rate of psychopathy is in journalism. That’s where you find it because they can manipulate large groups of people with what they can write and say.”

[@cantavoidtrite]

I thought it was surgeons, clergy and CEO's. Maybe this is dated data.

And the scariest part of it all is that he just straight up came up with that statistic out of his ass, then had no qualms just disseminating it to the public... Quite disturbing. The more I listen to his interviews over the 10+ years he's been publicly speaking the more disturbed I get by his inaccuracies and inconsistent beliefs. You got charmed and tricked. There is no source of scientific data anywhere stating that psychopathy is seen at the highest rate in journalism. Utterly ridiculous nonsense. I mean this dude legitimately used to tell everyone that he had OCD as a child, full-blown clinical OCD. Well, just that alone tells you he doesn't actually study psychology to any real authentic degree. OCD is known to be a chronic major mental illness and it does not just go away. It is also not associated with psychopathy to any degree and collective brain scan images would assist me in proving that point. He's a con artist. He is very intelligent and manipulative. EXTREMELY charming.

@@dontknow3949 he is hard for me to listen to. He talks halting and kinda fumbles. I feel he struggles to get his words out. Psychopathy is a dangerous disorder and I don't trust people with AsPd, primary and secondary psychopathy. I think the brain is off in people with this disorder. That is my 2 cents worth as I have intellectual impairment and Autistic spectrum disorder traits socially.

I have anti social personality disorder I spent a lot of time locked up in the past I have been violent with people before I was a alcoholic for many many years I learned to manage my ASPD I admitted i had a problem and worked on it I have been alcohol free for 8 years now. I stay away from negative people that is the biggest problem that will trigger you to hurt someone if you have serious anger issues like i do I have to deal with depression sometimes but i learned to care about good people as long as there good toward me if there bad toward me for no good reason i want to beat the hell out of them because thats how my mind works when people do me wrong I enjoy helping people with prolbums amd trying to make the world a little bit of a better place it's hard at times very very hard but i can manage as long as i am not drinking and i stay away from negative people anyone can be better if they admit they have a problem and work on it and stay away from negative people and drugs and alcohol the root of the problem is people wont admit they have a problem i seen people spend most of there life locked up in and out because they wont admit they have a problem thats insane doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results or i call it being stupid as i was stupid doing the stuff i did in the past it dont matter how bad someone is they can change there situation i have seen it done plenty of times before I learned from listening to the strangest secret from Earl nightingale on KZbin and reading How to raise your own salary by Napoleon Hill Ya that's all it took for me to get on the right track Yes its hard at times but much better than before I hope the best for everyone

[@cindyo6298]

Very interesting conversation. Truly engaging. Also, great interview questions. In terms of "working on" tendencies that are damaging to others, I think the awareness about and eagerness to change one's behavior is in itself determined by previous experiences and brain structure/chemistry. They are predetermined, so I wouldn't consider working on damaging tendencies an act of free will. That's just me though.

[@solaura6218]

Behavior follows emotion. Emotion is determined by the beliefs & ingrained ideas.

[@boydhooper4080]

Great to hear from somebody so in touch with reality and not bound by being politically correct. His comment on journalist as psychopaths clarifies so much of their behaviour

[@Poppy-yx8js]

Making criminal claims against a family is illegal and is something my conservative half brother did to me and my family. I don’t understand why nobody will talk to me considering I’m very obviously a victim and am really suffering badly.

[@Poppy-yx8js]

The red head gaslight is not acceptable.

[@defenderofwisdom]

Insofar as psyhopathy can even be healed for a month, maybe whatever task quiets psychopathy for that time needs a regular and commensurately opposite response to the negative flux back to psychopathic behaviours every month. So if we can predict "this persons psyvhopathy will reassert itself probably by April 14th" there is some task between April 1st and 14th meant to intercept the change before it realizes in terms of harmful behaviour.

[@dontknow3949]

Where did you come upon this theory? The person would still be psychopathic pathologically during this "task." During that task, if an interpersonal conflict were to arise in the psychopathic person's life, they would still react pathologically psychopathically. That is not a cure or psychopathy being "healed."

This is an interesting definition of psychopathy right off the bat from Fallon. The more I listen to different interviews with him the more he freaks me out with the things he says.
