I’ll read the article when I’m not hammered but, I don’t think it’s incredibly important that people are aware of psychopathy. I grew up suspecting that I toed the line of psychopathy as a kid after skimming through that one female with aspd who published the book it was m.e. something I believe but I saw it as too try hard and let it go. Coming back around to my 20s I’m glad I didn’t have the opportunity to ruminate on it, kinda shitty information to get as a kid and if I did decide that I saw myself in that I would have taken that as a green flag to be much much worse that I already was. (Side note: this just lead me to thinking I was a schizo and that did some damage)

Also I don’t really know what you mean by psychopathy being normalized, I assume you just mean in American society?

Okay to finish there is literally no point because if someone ever suspected I’m psychotic I would literally just tell them I’m autistic or something. Oh I’m not masking? I don’t feel good today. The only thing I’m really good at is social engineering so literally what is the point of anyone else knowing if all my energy will always be dedicated to social chess. Too bad I learned what flat affect was too late lol
