In delving into the murky depths of human behavior, the conversation surrounding psychopathy sparks intense debates, particularly on its origins. Are psychopaths simply wired that way, or can life experiences shape their disconcerting traits? The discussion ignited by the article on how Psychopaths Can Hide In Plain Sight reveals a rift in public opinion—some firmly believe in the genetic roots of psychopathy, while others staunchly oppose the idea, attributing it instead to environmental factors.
As someone who feels the weight of this subject deeply, I can’t help but lean toward the notion that psychopathy indeed has a hereditary component. My own family tree bears its gnarled branches, entwined with the unsettling traits of psychopathy that seem to sprout with a curious familiarity. Just like a shared love for weird family heirlooms or the unmistakable look of a certain long-lost relative, psychopathy has its fingerprints all over my kin. So, sit tight as I take you down this unsettling journey through bloodlines, crimes, and the curious patterns we inherit. If you’re feeling brave enough to peel back the layers of my crazy family and explore the intricate connections between genetics and behavior, then let’s dive right in! LEARN MORE.
Writing about how Psychopaths Can Hide In Plain Sight spurred a debate in the comments. Some feel psychopathy is genetic. Others think otherwise.
I think psychopathy is genetic. It runs in families. I know this because it runs in mine. It also runs in every other family with a psychopathic gene, I have ever known. It’s no different than the Mars Mercury signature in my family, or our Jupiter-flavored moons.
“Phoenix” mentioned in one of his comments, I seemed, okay, meaning I am not a psychopath. He’s right about that. My siblings are not psychopaths either. We all have plenty of tears and feelings. It’s a miracle, really. That said, my father is not the only psychopath in my family. I’m going to try to explain this, down to the nitty gritty.
I have another close relative who is a notorious psychopath. He was a brilliant young man; I think he was twenty years old, when he committed a crime so shocking and heinous, to this day, I can’t believe I am related to this dude. They called him a mastermind.
He copped a plea and was sent to prison for life, with a chance of parole, but there is no chance he will ever be paroled. Basically, he goes before the board every five years and forget about it. I don’t know anyone who would want this man loose, based on the one crime; never mind, there’s no doubt he’s running amok in prison.
There are some fine points to make here. This crime was freakishly sophisticated with layers upon layers of FU, embedded. I can’t tell you if the whole of it was done consciously, at that age, or otherwise, but I can tell you, I can read his language. We share DNA! I know a lot about what he did, whether he did knew it at the time or not.
I’m not sure if this is clear, so I will try again. A high level musician will hear nuance in another musician’s work, that will pass by the masses. When this happens, it bowls you over. The fine hand, see? A light goes on, clear as a bell.
Does the first musician know what they did? Probably. Or maybe? I’m unable to discern, but I am definitely related to this guy and this is my point.
They called him a mastermind and the crime is stupefying and that’s what people see. What they see is true, but it’s also “blunt”. They are missing this bastard’s fine hand and I’m sure he laughs at their stupidity. Psychopath love to mock others.
The person(s) he wanted smack with this crime, felt it though. I’m talking about the collateral victims, not the literal victims.
They called him a “mastermind” due to the details of the crime, but they are only one layer in. This kid was killing far more birds with his stone, and I recognize his thought patterns.
It’s because he has the family stamp. And this is the same as other families, whether we’re talking about psychopathy or twins or red hair or green eyes… or signatures in astrology charts.
This is by no means, all my evidence. But there is something to glean here, if that’s your actual goal.
This man is a Pisces with a moon Jupiter conjunction exactly like one of my sisters. Pluto and Uranus oppose his sun and he’s got a Mars Saturn conjunction in Aries.
Born that way.
