"Do you genuinely trust the same institution to give you a jab that would have you pay $100k~ to stitch up your finger?"
Another one.
"People say experts can do no wrong. How many experts who paid $100k~ in tuition do you know that did it to benefit the people and not because of societal pressures, the prestige, or the big salary?"
Follow up, I guess.
"It's been proven that in corporate environments, there's a demonstrably disproportionate number of psychopaths who occupy positions of power. What makes you so sure the people on tv aren't one of these?"
It sociopaths that make up many big company CEOs and even then its just that sociopathic traits exist more prevalently among them which makes sense when you think about it. And dont forget we hear the word sociopath and think murder but in reality most sociopaths dont murder. But Sociopaths do whatever they have to remove things preventing them from getting what they want and dont care about the ramifications it may have on others. This is why their companies got to where they are. In all honesty I’f probably want a sociopath running the company i own. Sounds crazy, i know, hehe.
I know they're not stereotypical in that regard. In fact, some sociopaths have a semblance of a conscience, albeit underdeveloped as a result of a tumultuous environment. They just don't give enough of a fck, really. Psychopaths are actually pretty different. They do not feel fear like the rest of us as a result of a difference in gen etics.
They're both almost entirely self-serving and will stop at nothing to do what they want. The difference being, a sociopath doesn't give enough of a fck to form the social relationships needed to climb to such a position. At least, that's my understanding.
Neither necessarily ascribe to all the stereotypes thought about them, but the world of ethics is largely meaningless to both, either way.
