Is the public view of these people warranted, or is it just ableism from neurotypical people? Is it bad for me to use “psychopath” and “sociopath” as pejoratives against other people?

The public view is essentially that any of the terms for this is basically a stamp that either says these people should be put down ASAP, or if you are liberal minded, it says that they should be locked in a secure facility until non-direct causes kills them.
I would say it’s probably not very good to spread the idea of basically ontologically harmful people roaming amongst us.
