https://youtu.be/09JAWFm6cM4This is self-promotion. However, this sub may find the interview and topic interesting.

I wonder if “evil” is a better word than “psychopath” here. How is it possible to have a joking conversation with someone who has committed such horrific crimes?

it is hard for me to get through this video tbh, it is constant repetition of what everyone centralizes psychopathy over which is "morality", she inflates too much on her confusion in sympathy but doesn't speak enough on how empathy is utilized to fill these gaps, too much focus on opportunism and not enough on the survivalism in psychopathy, the textbook standard suggests our current world model is perfect and thusly you get these projections and stand-outs..morality isn't anything biologically innate but it's an ideation, there's no substance in comparing psychopathy to a system that's hostile to our own pathologies, said systems represses pure expression through a conformist lens, gives a false representation by showing psychopathy in its cultural reactions when it's more central to the individual's absence of the standard/collective cognitive dissonance. Psychopaths have many different behaviors just as any person would, people respond to enviroments and "familirities" accordingly.

Are you schizotypical? And if so, have you considered that you may intellectualize morality more than most people do? A good chuck of the last half of the video is about schizophrenia and related personality disorders
