"I am no longer going to go easy on those who want to make everything as simple as "evildoers!". The world is not as pathetically simple as Alex Jonesheads think (if indeed they do.) All the crap he spews is pretty much a blueprint for "how to dumb down honest and well meaning folk who may not be that bright to begin with."

What does Alex Jones have to do with anything I said? Yes, Alex Jones does indeed oversimplify everything down to his brainwashed (or purposeful Psyop misdirected) Christian/Illumanit bullshit - "It't the Illuminati gay-orgy-loving globalists!" - all that silly heaven and hell stuff, the evil of 'Pornography'-shock horror, burn in hell,yada yada yada nonsense. I think we both agree on that.

I'm talking about the very real and documented problem of psychopathy/sociopathy that affects 2-4%s of the population - and more specifically Political Ponerolgy - the scientific study of they ways in which these types of individuals infiltrate and take over political regimes and social movements, which cuts accross boundaries of conventional explanations of normal/simple human ecotism, shameless opportunism, ideology, culture, whatever. For years I've tried to study the human condition and found that these conventional explanations just don't adequately explain what is going on.
I've come to the conclusion that you can't really understand what is happening and find a way out fo this recurring cycle of calamity without understanding this psychological dimension - specifically the fact that in every culture/ethnicity there are humans who are very different from the rest of us, primarily in that they LACK certain essential human qualities, such as syntonic (social) emotions: those responsible for bonding and empathy. They are unable to feel guilt.

Gretavo, I cannot recommend enought the book Political Ponerology by Andrew M. Lobaczewski. I think you can really expand your understanding with this study.

Pathocracy is a disease of great social movements followed by entire societies, nations, and empires. In the course of human history, it has affected social, political, and religious movements as well as the accompanying ideologies… and turned them into caricatures of themselves…. This occurred as a result of the … participation of pathological agents in a pathodynamically similar process. That explains why all the pathocracies of the world are, and have been, so similar in their essential properties.

…Identifying these phenomena through history and properly qualifying them according to their true nature and contents - not according to the ideology in question, which succumbed to the process of caricaturization - is a job for historians. […]
The actions of [pathocracy] affect an entire society, starting with the leaders and infiltrating every town, business, and institution. The pathological social structure gradually covers the entire country creating a “new class” within that nation. This privileged class [of pathocrats] feels permanently threatened by the “others”, i.e. by the majority of normal people. Neither do the pathocrats entertain any illusions about their personal fate should there be a return to the system of normal man. [Andrew M.
