There's a sociopath on youtube who gives lectures on how to deal with his type. I'm not sure how closely related the two are, but, if I recall correctly, psychopaths and sociopaths have similar traits. The guy's name is Prof Sam Vaknin. Unfortunately, one of his techniques is to treat the behavior in kind, except to do so at an intense magnitude. The tactic allows their ego to feed off the negative energy, and it also gives them a quick moment to self-reflect. I suppose something like that could prove dangerous if used on a violent psychopath.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
that last part, think of the source, you know he knows that could prove dangerous and probably gets off on it
the best thing to do is to cut all ties and freeze out by any means available, if someone continues then there is some merit to the intense magnitude part. I literally can smell these types like a bloodhound and others know it who need to
Well said. I'm surprised I didn't think of that too. I was more marveling at the fact that people would pay to see him lecture on the topic. If not the former, he's likely getting off on the latter. The latter alone wouldn't necessarily reflect on the quality of his advice.
