In my experience IRL (imperial core) and online, “Maoists” are often well read and intelligent but are also somehow completely unhinged. I mean specifically that kind of Maoist who rejects MZT and uphold Gonzalo Thought, for example. You know the kind.
Does anyone have an analysis as to what makes people become this sort of leftist, or any experience helping them back to the real world, as it were? All the Maoists I’ve known would make great comrades if they weren’t constantly wrecking or trying to wreck things in a given area. It may be of use to try to pull some back from the brink.

u/FeaturedDa_man - originally from r/GenZhouI think everybody understands psychopath to mean an egomaniacal person lacking empathy, which that person clearly is. The DSM isn’t the authoritative source on these terms, just on current American parlance within the field, but even if it was it does define these traits as a subset of ASPD
