I Think I Might Be A Sociopath

@lasergraph: Most every man in my family is a veteran. I'm sorry, but I think it's fewer who join for dark reasons than those who join for duty or honor, or simply some place to go. Not to mention the very large percentage of people who join fully expecting to die.

We never know what is in people's heart. Yes there are many who volunteer to do the right thing and we should commend them for doing so. I am just saying if someone shows up and says, "I am with the government and am here to help you." lock the door and hide the silver.

@lasergraph: Ha! I agree wholeheartedly with you there.

I know that- hence why I pointed it out. So many people are idiots and believe that all sociopaths are murderers, and, though I could easily be, it doesn't prove to benefit me much in any way atm. Sociopaths do feel emotion. I promise you that. Why else would one kill if not for the gratification of being stronger than the victim? Or perhaps for the fun of it?

@InterstellarPirate: I believe you would be talking about psychopaths more than sociopaths, psychopaths do feel and are more likely to get a kick out of killing. I believe sociopaths are more likely to kill because the person is in their way, an obstruction in their life, but not to get a kick from. All these labels are not black and white, people can show tendencies of both.
You said you don't feel bad about it, but you do care. Some sociopaths would care that they are not the same as others, but not necessarily have empathy for others.

@ajoite: I think you're missinterpreting what I said.

@ilyass: Don't think I hurt people intentionally. I often try to avoid it, it's uncomfortable, and they're far more useful to me if they believe I care, and if I treat them kindly. However once someone has lost all value to me, I see no need to play the game with them any longer, I've already won.

.. I know someone like this 😑

@ilyass: I take it you lost then?
