Ours is a society that rewards sociopathy

RE: Ours is a society that rewards sociopathy
It would be good to know just how much you're fighting back and in what way, and what you're up against.

Are you in some sort of ghetto and you're thinking of buying a gun to fight back against the local drug dealers like an 80s movie, or is your boss trying to get you to work through your lunch break which you should be legally entitled to?

I'm in England and minor conflict is common, in traffic, in the work place.  I would probably run into a lot more of it if I drank and went out to places like pubs and clubs.  Being around it all the time can make you wiser about dealing with it in future. 

In terms of sociopathy being rewarded I agree with the people saying it varies from culture to culture, but I'd also say it varies from group to group within cultures. I don't live in a crime free paradise but in general people who have a total disregard for other people aren't really treated greatly.  In general they develop a bad reputation and people don't want to deal with them.  Local to me there are entire areas with bad reputations.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
