Autistic people don't like to be touched has nothing to do with lack of empathy, its often a sensory issue and being too sensitive.
True Psychopaths become Members of Government either as politicians or the intelligence services or become traitors (or are the 3 of them the same thing)
We have plenty to go around here in US. Altho I would rank the orange idiot in charge here more of a “narcissistic sociopath”...which is close enough
Or they go into crime and end up in prison. Lol
Sadly you are right! Around the time that the 'new' test for psychopathy was developed and most obvious research was completed using the test, some researchers decided to test 'professions' and/or the 'western corporate' world. You guessed it -- MOST of the people at the top of western corporations were found to be highly psychopathic. I imagine politicians would test similarly.
Absolutely Billy,they have zero value for human life and the ones l was unfortunately met,certainly were well trained in what they did.l survived but my memories are there always.
Psychopath's won't admit to this diagnosis, or acknowledge the science behind psychopathy.
Because its pseudoscience. Adhoc definitions until everyone exhibits psychopathy... that diagnosis will be 500 dollar..
Yeah and you must have so much knowledge on this subject, ill have to take your word as gospel on this one. You sure are intelligent arent you?
People with autism are often highly sensitive and some of the most empathetic people, sometimes due to being highly sensitive...
Thank you ❤
Alfie IV some autistic people perhaps
I agree AM have two children with autism.
A diagnosis is usually taken over a period of time, not just a snapshot in time. Also they speak to family and friends who know the person, plus do tests.
this is an interesting, enlightening conversation, not a formal diagnosis (which can only be done by a licensed professional)
Am actually on way to being diagnosed with aspd now
@@joshveall7092 My condolences.
Autism is on a spectrum, it's not black and white. Some people on the spectrum are very sensitive and find emotions very difficult
Waste of time....bringing his own checklist. Avoiding all answers. Uses his children’s accomplishments as his own. Hhhmmm
Issue's for sure 🤔
He might have had this question before or read the comments.
What's good M.C.? That's funny, the first thing I said was he must be a psychopath if he walks around with the literal checklist in his rear pocket 😂😂😭 ( y'all remember Ted Bundy?)
I dont know who this guy is but I wouldn't want to be in a room with him. 🥴
This guy found an issue with almost every single point on that checklist and deflected using his daughters accomplishments and anecdotes. Never answered questions straight on either, his entire aura was just off. I would never trust him.
non-stop minimizing and justifying
Yeap, my thoughts exactly
I’m going with Psychopath.
He never answered one question with a definitive “no”. You judge it by how you feel you engaging. Are you a liar? No. Except for the occasional little ones. But lying is bad. Not, a long talk around why the question is stupid.
This is the first time I’ve heard of this guy. If I was on a date and he answered the way he did here, I wouldn’t think he was a good guy.
All special forces are psychopaths, but we call them heroic.
@@mroconnell1775 reeeee millitary industrial complex bernie sanders reeeee millitary bad reeeeer
@@awesomecooly123 what ?
@@mroconnell1775 Just because someone is brave and wants to be a soldier, that doesn't make them psychopaths. Special forces soldiers are self-sacrificing and team oriented and they follow orders, rescue and guard hostages with their lives. They're trained and conditioned to work through emotions and pressure. They have deep meaningful relationships with their loved ones and their brothers in arms. Many of them suffer from ptsd and resort to suicide. To qualify as a psychopath you have to have to accumulate a high score on the psychopathy checklist and you have to have a few of the defining traits. Leave the diagnosis to the pros.
@@awesomecooly123 official story good reeeeeee JFK magic bullet reeeeee buildings falling at freefall speed reeeeeeeeeeeeee
He is wrong about autistic people lacking empathy. We often feel strong empathy but lack the proper skills to express it. It's quite offensive to state that autistic people don't have empathy. Sure there will be autistic people that lack empathy, just like there are neurotypical people that lack empathy.
# my pah says Autism is the new generation of normal compared to the opposite superficial ppl. Who are real psychopaths being selfish.
Isn't the autistic spectrum large and varied? There are certainly autistic people with zero empathy. Read the stories about women who unknowingly married aspbergers men and found themselves stuck with an abusive psychopath.
@@noone3734 It is possible to be both autistic and psychopathic at the same time... Doesn't necessarily mean one is linked to the other though.
@@bluesrocker91 But that doesn't seem to be the case. I'm not saying every person with asperger's is the same way, but it seems a lot of them don't have empathy and learn to behave like normal people so they can fit in. If asperger's people were psychos at the same percentage as the normal population, I don't think you would have websites devoted to helping women deal with the asperger's men they were deceived into marrying.
They do, and many have high intelligence too.
Good interview Shaun.
The interviews are Absolutely compelling viewing . Reminds me of a Clint Eastwood character.
The guy brought his own psych checklist, so he knows the questions and how to answer. Clever man (and I don't know what he's done) but he comes across as insincere and manipulative.
I saw the another video clip with him just before this one, and all the way through I kept thinking he seemed fake somehow... Like his whole character is an act.
I'm inclined to say yes do to the fact he tries to disregard and disqualify every question. He shares minimal honesty about himself.
Such cold eyes! Imagine those being the last thing you see as life ebbs away!
Exactly! I like listening to him but he scares me..lol
Great interview Sean keep up the good work!
Pathological liars lie for no reason most people tell lies to cover something or to make people feel better but the differnce is immense pathological liars believe their own lies and create there hole life based on lies the cant help it it's hard wored
Dodges almost all the questions by questioning each & every one. Example’ “Well what is empathy?” ......”I didn’t feel any remorse for killing drug dealers”
You can pretty much guarantee that anyone at the top of their field scores highly, be it lawyers, police, ceo's or pro footballers......you just have to prioritize yourself and your goals above that of others, i.e trample on people etc....doesn't mean you're Ted Bundy
Based on his responses, he is not only prepared, but he questions his own sincerity and responses. He is reading shaun. And while reading him he feels as though his responses to Shaun are sufficient and acceptable.
The reality is simple. He is lying. He is unsure of himself. You can learn how to determine if someone is lying on youtube, I dont want to make it easy for the interviewee to learn why he is lying.
If he is not psychopath then he is borderline. His responses are just too planned and fake. He doesn't have a relationship with his own kids and family? How do you question your own ability to feel guilt? To care? Come on now.
I like the way he brings the test then asks what the questions means ???
What is the point of this interview?
Evil just seeps out of this character - chilling.
Abbott’s responses are waaaay too rehearsed. Guilty!
As a psychopath myself, this guy is bad at it.
I’m very surprised at the poor level of further questioning here when given weak answers. “What’s the difference in pathological lying? Very simple. The kids with crumbs are lying after the fact to avoid scolding. Similar to lying to wife. Where as pathological is continually making up lies for no other reason that to gain a perceived advantage over the people u meet. Then the next piece. As for conning being subjective. That’s completely misunderstanding the question. Yes. We can THINK someone is conning and could be wrong. So that’s subjective. But. This is coming from an actual correct observation of someone. If u observe urself to be someone that is conning, then u have psychopathic traits (not necessarily psychopathic but that trait can be confirmed, not subjective). This is very basic stuff.
Agree. Had someone i thought was a good friend who was a pathological liar, i don't think he was a full blown psychopath though but maybe abit narcissistic. Had to cut ties with him completely and im better for it. This guy seems to share some of the psychopathic traits, not all but some of them.
As with ADHD in children and teenagers, ADHD in adults can occur alongside several related problems or conditions.
One of the most common is depression. Other conditions that adults may have alongside ADHD include:
personality disorders - conditions in which an individual differs significantly from the average person in terms of how they think, perceive, feel or relate to others
bipolar disorder - a condition affecting your mood, which can swing from one extreme to another
obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) - a condition that causes obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviour
The behavioural problems associated with ADHD can also cause problems such as difficulties with relationships and social interaction.
I want part 3,4,5,6,7,8..... Infinite of this giy
Aren't psychopaths always striving to remain undetected, and to seem like a normal man? Otherwise nobody would tolerate them for long. Nowadays a psycho could study psychopathy and change his behaviour in order to come off as normal.
Very good point. Psychological Warfare operators would do precisely that as you describe.
It’s adhd until they commit a crime then they label them as psychopath
That’s a pretty big blanket (statement).
Pathological lieing is more compulsory then normal lieing. lies are big and small wether it is necessary or not.
Wtf is this guy..
No empathy for drug dealers because they don't have family, wives or children to leave behind do they? If you work in a pharmacy and see this guy coming towards you ...run!
I heard a thing that if you yawn in front of a psychopath that they will not also yawn. That normal empathetic ppl will mirror that yawn.....🤔
Alicia Serafin interesting,good indicator!
I heard that too 👍
Monkey see, monkey do? That's great for dummies or some really sleepy people.
@@cherrylane6505 no. It's an empathetic response. Google that shit.
Isn't there nowadays the option to brain scan and see if the brain activity for fear and conscience is turned off?
my friend is doing a phd on that at the moment. nothing definite as of yet, as far as i know, it is the hypothesis
The wisdom of psychopaths is a good read/listen. It goes into some of that, the brain scan thing
I knew a pathological liar…and trust me when I say there’s a difference.
He was the service rep at a garage I worked at and every time he spoke it would be some crazy story about how he used to sell weapons to the IRA and he’s from Ireland and speaks Gaelic but when anyone asked him to speak Gaelic he’d just say “It would be a waste of time because you wouldn’t understand it anyway”.
He was the biggest cocaine dealer South of Montreal (this is Canada btw) and he tore out a guy’s eyeball in a street fight and in another street fight he punched a guy up a flight of stairs.
At his former job he had two assistants.
He owned multiple high end cars (yet his wife picked him up in a mini van after work everyday).
His wife was a secretary or some kind of admin at Exxon and she discovered a billing error that saved the company billions of dollars (yes BILLIONS) so Exxon booked an entire cineplex for a weekend for her and close friends and family. I called the theatre to verify this with some guys in the garage for a laugh and told the theatre guy all these stories and he also found it quite amusing…after he stopped laughing he told us “No, we haven’t ever done that and I don’t think we would…it wouldn’t be fair to our regular customers”.
This was about five years ago so my memory might be a little hazy but you can certainly tell the difference between a pathological liar and just a regular guy who makes stuff up to get in or out of something.
SHAUN DARLIN, MAKE SURE THAT YOU RELOAD ON LOVE AFTER DOING THOSE INTENSE AND HORRIFIC STORIES, BECAUSE THEY'LL TAKE PIECES OF YOUR LIGHT EACH TIME!!! MUCH LOVE SWEETNESS!!!! THERE'S A LITTLE TIDBIT TO GET YOU STARTED!!!! BIG HUGS!!!!
Sounds like Nancy Pelosi....just sayin'.
Watch interviews with Ted Bundy. Same answers, same deviations, circumventions, expanations. John Abbott fits the description to a tee.
Some specialists have suggested the following as a list of symptoms associated with ADHD in adults:
carelessness and lack of attention to detail
continually starting new tasks before finishing old ones
poor organisational skills
inability to focus or prioritise
continually losing or misplacing things
forgetfulness
restlessness and edginess
difficulty keeping quiet, and speaking out of turn
blurting out responses and often interrupting others
mood swings, irritability and a quick temper
inability to deal with stress
extreme impatience
taking risks in activities, often with little or no regard for personal safety or the safety of others - for example, driving dangerously
A lot of that lines up with the psychopath checklist. A LOT of that also rings true with me too. It also has bipolar similarities too.

Get checked out x might help you ....
have you ever done speed / stimulants? And felt totally normal ?? It could be a sign ... speed has the opposite affect and slows your brain down x
The adhd symptoms list and psychopath list are exactly the same .... if all these kids have adhd we have loads of mini psychos x
Lifelong ADHD person here. What you perceive on the outside is not always what’s going on inside the ADHD person’s brain. We may not respond appropriately or have poor impulse control but the difference between psychopaths and ADHD persons is that (I for one) never fantasize about murder or hurting others in any way, full of empathy and care for others, and my own worst critic for not being “normal.”
Don't know he is but he seems pretty ok to me .
Can't find any info about this guy on line.
@Love One another Yeah I went and checked up his name on Google and nothing.. kind of strange.
Look up the murder of Valerie McDonald...San Francisco 1980
@@shazzye5920 Will do thank you for the info.

@@NorthWalesKid yeah... I can't fuk or drive.... I let other people let me know how I'm doing there. I'm saying most people say that because most people do. If you're not most people like me why you even leaving a comment??.
Does he ever think about the women that he conned into marrying him and supporting him?
Whats funny is he manipulated the criteria AND their definitions.. Manipulative behavior. The is how you'd expect a psychopath to answer this this line of questioning. I'm not saying he is a psychopath BUT in his efforts to prove he isn't, he displays classic psychopath traits.
Here's a question... What type of jobs to psychopaths tend to gravitate towards?
Bernie Madoff was a conman/investment manager who was in the game for the money. His pyramid scheme lasted about 20 years before it collapsed.
@@marcosmith2501 in oz we call him Bernie madeoff!. Any person with money ainvolving themselves with , Polatitiions! Corporate Pigs, Churches!. basically i think the more money the more fucked up people seem.
Today? Digital marketing and sales in software.
Whatever manipulation works
Legal, financial, government, and military tend to be common careers...
Did he ever mention Valerie McDonald's murder in these interviews?
I think a good test for people to experiment with, that is mind related where anyone could test themselves as a Baseline that actually could answer a lot of questions for people because I was surprised myself when I first discovered and tried that could be a vital key ability that changed my life anyway? And that is one's ability for meditation? Proper meditation? To the point of no thought? Because not being able to quiet the mind is the problem most people have? Identification with the mind and not being able to stop thinking is the root of all suffering. Eckhart Tolle and his book The Power of Now was an eye-opener for a lot of people?
Who is this guy?
Yeah way to play it cool there Shaun.....If I wasn't well read in psychopathy I would have been inclined to agree with him...
Pathological liars believe what they are telling.
No more like they're addicted to lying
Pathological lies cause harm.
Psychopath or sociopath without a doubt.
If I was asked if I was a psychopath Id be offended. This guy doesn't care about being asked which is his GLIBNESS. With all due respect the test was performed incorrectly.
I think he spoke on each item on the checklist quite well and extremely intelligently, actually. As opposed to just saying, "No, not me".
I also don't get my psychological advice and education on the human condition from RUclips commenters, so what do I know?
My brother was a psychopath and my dad most likely was as well but was never diagnosed. This man is most likely one. The way he easily manipulates everyone in the room is something I’ve seen many times. The trick is it can be a ‘no win game’ like he talks about here about being labeled one and it being impossible to prove you’re not one but he shows a lot of the signs. The glibness and affect is a put on to draw people in which is what he’s doing. It’s a long term ‘con’ so don’t ever expect to be able to see through it or catch them out because you won’t see it until they want you to. You have to really know someone to the point of being related to them, like having grown up with them, to see through it. Of course all that depends on the psychopath’s IQ which this guy clearly has a very high one.
David Woods Christian apologist is a delivered, diagnosed, psychopath with a fascinating biography.
He is actually one of the most stand guys
Pathological lying is easily described as crackpot stories that people tell when they have nothing to gain from it. Just bullshitting.
@9:46 Shawn called out for being a drug dealer having a parasitic lifestyle. Shawn IMMEDIATELY goes to next question. 😂
He may not have violated probation but he did escape from prison after 2nd try 🤷🏼♀️ (just sayin’ 😆😳)
How strange..3 comments deleted from 3 people including my own saying
He should investigate Richard Bran son! One comment was from someone who worked for him!
Plugs virgin and removes comments on him...uuummhh fishy as hell.
Hare says explicit you cant use his list straight up and down as tool to detect psychopaths thats not
how it works. But these two figures thinks they can make a mockery of Hares work ignoring the full
psyco tests includes MRI scans so lets run them both through the MRI machine! Yeeehaaaa!
I agree that psychopaths are autistic-to various degrees.why not name it -as it is.to those to daubt it -not evry authistc person(psychpath) kills but lack of empathy is synonymous.
John's cool.
He ain't no psycho...but I'd never fight him.
I'd have 1 pt with him maybe 2
who??
He seems pretty cold and possibly on the autistic spectrum. The emotion in him seems to go very high then very low, like he could do anything at any time.
pathological lying. Lying when you don't have to, have nothing to gain. Lying for no reason or purpose. Im not sure if it's Egodystonic, or syntonic in psychopathy.. If I had to guess I would say it's dystonic for non-psychopathy persons. idk /2c
How do you think your wife feels when you cheat on her? Example question
Women cheat more
jquest43 that was not the point at all
@@m.c.1692 what is the point of your comment?
It it would be a typical answer of a psychopath or narcissist
jquest43 If you can’t think in a vacuum (hypothetical) and go straight into such a judgemental position. You either are not intelligent (nothing wrong with that) or you are a bitter human being (and worse is the fact you would justify misbehavings).
You could at least have said my life experience says that I didn’t have had people with high moral values therefore I don’t think it is worth it to hold myself to a moral high ground (even if it is for myself or for my sanity).
Sorry Shaun mate. Tex Watson claimed to be Mansons henchman. It is coming out now that Watson was not as close to Manson as first believed, infact Manson had Watson kicked off the ranch in the run up to the Murders, allegedly. Apparently Manson knew Watson was a shit bag bully who was ripping off dealers and knew that the actions of Watson would and did lead back to the ranch, putting the lives of those at the ranch in mortal danger. It still amazes me why more people haven't wondered why Charles Manson knocked back a deal with FBI/Law enforcement of 18 months in prison, if he testified against Watson to which Manson said, " No, i walk the line", which i think is a reference to GP mainline in prison. If the media had access to this knowledge at the time, i believe the People of the US wouldn't have thought of Manson as the Psycho they later did and will for the rest of time. No offence Shaun lad. Please don't attack my comment. The information on the so called, " Manson Family", was distorted to fit the Hollywood narrative of the time. I am not a supporter of anyone who murder other people. The facts are, that on that particular night 20k of coke was supposed to be dropped off for certain people with money and Watson got wind of it and was going to rip them off. Polanski,( who is we all know a wrongun ) was conveniently out of the country that night. I think he should have been looked at but he wasn't. Sorry but psychopathy was in the title so my comment isn't that far off being relevant to the interview.
Boring boring
Before you try to talk 'intelligently' about something, you should probably just look up the definitions of the terms; instead of taking the sophistic route of saying "well, what is X, anyway". Pathological as applied to most behaviours DOES HAVE AN OBJECTIVE meaning -- it means the patient is UNAWARE of or can NOT STOP because it is 'automatic' to them. A pathological liar is someone who does NOT believe they are being dishonest -- they believe their own fabrications because the behaviour is PATHOLOGICAL. Your manipulation of the topic -- deflection, etc., ironically is likely sociopathic, no?
No. Psychopath

@Alexandra Hunter lt must be devastating and unimaginable when family don't know what happened and no body .
Its hard to when people know what happened in cases,tell and without proof not be believed... Corruptions and coverups
@Alexandra Hunter just horrific.One would ask could there of been a satanic ritual element to the killing.
@Alexandra Hunter l didnt manage to look that article up yet,but it's interesting how Satanic rituals came to my mind.
Look up the case of Brian McDermott murder September 3rd 1973 in Belfast....no way his brother committed that....only parts of Brian was found.He was just a child....Satanic element and people in power involved there for sure.
