Likewise, the DSM V personality inventory is a faulty diagnosis tool becuase it relies heavily on projection to ascertain a diagnosis. This is precisely why sociopaths that know they are sociopaths are so easily able to avoid detection on the test. Furthermore, when youve seen as much of the shady shit ive seen tweakers and other undesirables i used to associate with do, its kind of hard to say i agree strongly with the statement that people are inherently trustworthy etc even though i know thats what i am supposed to answer with if im a normal naive fool.
Conversely, i remained relatively "good" through all of that, never hurt people that i didnt have to out of self defense, paid for my own recreational imbibing without scamming and conning people, holding down a full time job and paying my own way throughout all my life so i exist in this area where i know how to be a shady predatorial asshole if i wanted to, its just not in my disposition to be that guy.
