Does not make them a sadistic psychopath.

Psychopaths and narcissists are the biggest threat to life on Earth.

I think the disproven theory of you get abused you become an abuser.

I think psychopaths and narcissists are a danger to us all.


Psychopaths are born that way
And narcissists develop it as soon as 2 years old.

I think they are physically different in the brain.

They are born that way
