Why can’t sociopaths see consequences that any of the rest of us could? Let’s ask Chris Lee and Heidi Jones

Married GOP Congressman Sent Sexy Pictures to Craigslist Babe

“. . . i’m a very fit fun classy guy”

[I tell ya, personally, I, PW, put my foot down and told my mistresses that we were just going to stick to the blue light special at Kmarts, none of this high tech stuff.  Am I smart or what?  . . .  Oh my god, did I just write that down?!! . . . Just entertaining the readers, dear. . . .  Put down that frying pan! . . .  Aaaaaaah!]

Back to the post at hand [Just checking who’s paying attention.  . . .  yeah, that’s the ticket!], Chris Lee also failed to follow his own advice.

Craigslist Congressman warned teens about dangers of the internet

“. . . responding to what may seem like a friendly e-mail or an appealing marketing offer can have serious consequences. Private information and images can so easily be transmitted to friends and strangers alike.”

Oops, that’s two sociopathic thinking pattern flags for our Chris Lee.  Public positions and statements have nothing to do with a sociopath’s life.  It’s not even hypocrisy, it’s their nature.  Words are lifetools for them, to be used strategically and politically, not as an expression of themselves or any serious truths (which don’t exist in their world).

UPDATE: The Craigslist Congressman and the Crossdressing Prostitute.  According to Gawker, Chris Lee was also interested in “passable TS/CD”s (transsexual crossdressers).

Sociopaths are pansexual for the same reason they seek multiple partners (often hundreds, sometimes thousands) — sheer boredom.  The act of sex means no more to them emotionally than sex with an inflatable doll would mean to us.

WABC-TV weatherwoman Heidi Jones told cops, even NYPD Commish Ray Kelly, fib to get protection

WABC-TV weatherwoman Heidi Jones was given ’round-the-clock protection by NYPD detectives before fessing up to sending cops on a wild-goose chase for her phony Central Park attacker, a police source said.

WABC-TV’s Heidi Jones suspended after filing phony cop report on Central Park attack

WABC-TV weather forecaster Heidi Jones was suspended Wednesday for filing a bogus police report about a phony stalker and a Central Park assault.

So why?  I think the answer is simply that consequences are those boring things grownups are always talking about.  Sociopaths want what they want, when they want it, just like all babies.  It’s just one more trait of their arrested development and lack of psychological development.  Stupidity is not the issue, IQs can still be quite high.

A search today: “i am the target of a sociopathic bully. what do i do?”

Since I don’t know if this is taking place in a school, a neighborhood or a workplace but since my own personal knowledge comes from workplaces I’ll use that.  For workplace bullying targets, I suggest the following:

1.  Make one, but probably only one, very firm push against the sociopath, both with co-workers and management.  This is a ‘do unto others before they do unto you’ situation — don’t hold back, realize your attacker will not play fair, respond accordingly.

2.  If a case can be made without reference to the bully being a sociopath, go down that path.  Too many people simply can’t wrap their minds around an individual in their circle actually being a sociopath, this often (almost always?) includes management and HR (how can this be?).

3.  If the bully is so crafty that the campaign is invisible to third parties, in complaints to management and HR directly assert that the individual is a sociopath.  Refer them to http://www.bullyonline.org/ if need be.  Suggest that they request a brain scan from the bully.  You want to have the workplace bully fired, they don’t play ‘live and let live.’

4.  If the bully is protected by a high placed devotee (some individuals fall under a cultish spell regarding an admired sociopath — they are impossible to get through to, being almost as dedicated to the sociopath as a mother is to her own two year old.  (I am totally serious.)); or if the sociopathic bully is protected by fellow sociopaths in management and/or HR (though management can override HR if management is strongly on your side) then leave.  Give up.  It doesn’t matter how much you like the job, how much you invested in it, etc. you can not trade blows with a sociopath.  Everything connected to you is fair game to them, your reputation, your family, your spouse.  Furthermore, workplace bullies may spend years on bullying campaigns.  I’ve found them to be ‘beyond the pale’ sociopaths, completely emotionless mimics of normal human beings.  Being emotionless they have no normal satisfactions and pleasures — to them it makes sense to dedicate years and immense effort and brainpower on these campaigns.  If you say that “no enemy is going to make my choices for me” and stay, you, your marriage, and your family will be damaged by the corrosive stress of the situation — people die from this everyday, believe me.  Don’t do it.
