If I tried to estimate a sociopathy scale from 0 to 10, in my life I have personally met one person who scores 10, two people somewhere around 2, and most nasty people were somewhere between 0 and 1, usually closer to 0.
I hope it illustrates that my mental model has separate buckets for “people I suspect to be sociopaths” and “people I disagree with”.
Diagnosing mental illness based on the kind of second hand information you have about politicians isn’t a trivial effort. Especially if you lack the background in psychology.
Uhm, no. Allow me to quote from my other comment:
