Dictators tend to be psychopaths. I wonder if we can call psychopaths a race.
If after the following steps:
Get statistical data.
If result:
Just to be clear, I will not endorse this study.
It's already been shown that psychopaths can live relatively normal lives when given proper treatment. There's even a story of one such brain researcher (James Fallon) finding out his own brain structures in an MRI result showed a tendency to psychopathy, even though he was a fairly average man who was conducting such a study.
In that case, wouldn't we want to say, instead, that the researcher's environment was such that he developed mild tendencies towards psychopathy, but not enough to be socially relevant.
I would go so far to say that the average person has a tendency to psychopathy, considering the social state of our civilisation.
