Psychopath and 'dark triad' personalities always end up in leadership positions. They are all smiling nasties. Its amazing that our western culture not only breeds, and accepts, but even hails these feudal kings manipulating, harming and skimming the surplus from anyone else..
Its time to call on the French peasantry again ! Chop chop, mon ami..
tbh it's a global problem and not just for those westerners to figure out
The rules we have created to govern corporations cause that, in a very direct way. If those positions were officially responsible for the welfare of their employees and customers, and not just their shareholders, the role would not favor sociopaths. We need to change the rules. Otherwise, getting rid of the current crop of awful people will just replace them with others like them.
