The Big Problem is that we sort all the psychopaths to the top.

Under-regulated capitalism has allowed a strain of raging psychopathy to take control of key sectors of life, including business and politics.

At the root of this dynamic is that our system rewards people who don’t care about others because they have an array of options that people with empathy don’t have. It’s hard to be competitive when your competition is willing to do inhumane things you would never be willing to do. So the people who are willing usually win.

In this way, we sort all the high-functioning sociopaths and psychopaths to the top of the pyramid—and reward them lavishly for it. And once they get there, those people want to surround themselves with others who have no interest in empathy either—so they replace anyone who won’t behave like a sociopath with someone who will.

Now is the part it gets weird.

Since the goal of these psychopaths is to make people behave in ways that are counter to their own interests—so they can steal people’s money for themselves—they have devised systems to turn “normies” into empathy-free zombies.

Large swaths of our digital and media existence have been captured by psychopaths who intentionally created platforms and methodologies for brainwashing people into their own cruel worldviews.

Most of us want to raise our kids in a world that cares about human beings, that cares about equality, that wants to move towards peace, not violence.

These men do not deserve our trust. They have intentionally poisoned us to benefit themselves and our enemies.

Fascism is fundamentally psychopathic, it is not ideological. It cannot be negotiated with. It must be defeated.
