The Mandela Effect strikes again.
From what I've read Charles Manson was more psychotic than psychopathic. The two are very different. Charles Manson's murders were incredibly immoral, but from what I have read he was acutely deluded in such a way that he genuinely believed that what he was doing was moral. A true psychopath doesn't give a shit about morality and would only pretend to care about morality so they can more easily manipulate people for their own selfish ends. Psychopaths know they're 'evil' and sadistic but they don't give a shit, and Charles Manson whilst being a disgusting murderer... supposedly really genuinely thought he was doing good.
Yeah, I didn't say anything about Charles Manson being psychopathic. I'm just making general points here.
But anyway, a psychopath nevertheless has a mental deficiency in moral reasoning as they don't really see what's wrong about the things that most people intuitively understand to be wrong.
