>The researchers gave a questionnaire to more than 190 NYU psychology students that rated their level of psychopathy. It includes questions such as, “For me what’s right is whatever I can get away with” and “Love is overrated.”
Inside this "hard-hitting" WashingtonPost article about what music psychopaths like is a window into the demented mind of your average mangina who considers himself part of the science establishment, but rather than do real science, allows blue pill biases to contaminate any kind of data-driven finding he/she may come up with. The study was supposed to gauge psychopathy- "a personality disorder characterized by manipulativeness and a lack of empathy."
Instead Pascal Wallisch the professor tries to sneak in his own petty (misguided) opinions and blue pill agenda into what is supposed to be objective science. We've talked at length how love is a (mostly) artificial plot device society uses to corral men into marriage; how even the biological roots are short-lasting. It's built up to laughable dimensions by a culture of recording artists who happily reinforce this propaganda.
Women are Incapable of Love
Women have 2 modes today- Slut Game and Beta Bailout (not Love Game)
If love existed, it existed when society bent over backwards to cultivate it in both genders. A woman regressed to cavewoman instincts- love is as foreign an emotion as any. It didn't exist in the wild; certainly not beyond 24-36 months. Society used methods to cultivate the cavewoman into a lady; an epic work that took centuries now undone. Our instincts come from the culture, first and foremost, that impulse trumps even biology given the neuroplasticity of the mind. But if the culture is rudderless, men and women slip back into their Paleolithic Era patterns.
Seeing love as overrated is far from pscyhopathy; it's seeing past the propaganda fog. It's thinking rationally when society is pushing something on you that you know to be overblown; more overblown today given the nature of women than ever before. Women could never love men, the way men can love a woman; she always found common cause with a man she respected and looked up to. Only a true conformist could mindlessly parrot the social engineering on love so faithfully; and is there any greater conformist than an academic mediocrity whose 'original contributions' are merely to restate 'social programming' as though it's some kind of scientific reality?
No one's here to "bah humbug" or discount the potential of relationships. But to accept the overhyped notion of Love- a convenient device society inflated for its own designs such as social stability- is to be the ultimate sucker. Passing off simple-minded opinion, such as asking questions in a study that bear little logical correlation to your pre-determined conclusion, does not help pscyhologists get psychology treated like a 'hard science'.
Nice try Pascal. I know you have to publish "or perish" but next time try harder next time to cover your tracks when you publish psuedo-science.
