I would argue that sociopathy is the pinnacle of organic rationality. Unless, of course, we're using a definition of such wherein the content of said rationality is utterly irrelevant... in which case: sociopathy is exactly as rational as any other 'rationality'.
Advocacy might not be decidedly rational, on the other hand... so you could ultimately be right. Just... not in the way you likely thought you were.
Actually, I am right in just the way I thought I was. It is the advocating the behavior that is not rational.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
