Is it morally acceptable / wrong to kill a diagnosed psychopath/sociopath?

think about it:

-they can’t feel any form of emotion, essentially they are just evil walking husks without a soul of any form.

-they probably can’t feel physical pain either. (not sure about this one but somewhere it said they cannot)

so from that argument would it be morally justified if let’s say in a hypothetical town, the town banded together to kill the medically diagnosed psychopaths by burning them or idk however you normally execute someone?

after-all most criminals are sociopathic / psychopathic, you would be essentially killing off basically genetically bad people and lowering the risks for crime altogether.

also since these types of people (if you can even call them people) can’t learn from mistakes and any form of treatment is useles.

ah yes, morality on a lego game forum

man’s typing a 7 page essay lmao

No, it’s only empathy they don’t feel, which is why it’s a lot easier for them to do bad stuff.

pop culture go brrrr

No, never. Most psychopaths might not even know they’re psychopaths in the first place! Hell, you’re pretty much implying here that mob violence is justified!

Uh, they can…?

You can’t be “genetically bad.” There’s a lot of factors as to why people become criminals and genetics doesn’t play a part in that.

do research before making such claims

psychopathy is genetic.

sociopathy… is a bit different I’m pretty sure that it’s influenced but has some genetic ties to it.

yeah I was skeptical about this too.

wait that doesn’t make any sense.

nope they literally cannot feel any form of emotion, they probably fake it.

mmmm…

I want to say a really dark joke right now…

:neutral_face:

:thinking:

You should try doing actual research before saying such things.

Sociopathy and psychopathy are considered sometimes to be the same disorder. But yes, they are inherited.

Also, apparently they’re not people??

ikr so true!!!

okay in all seriousness I think I need to take more research into this topic. clearly I was biased and I’m sorry for that.

this is scary true though since apparently psychopaths literally constantly plan evil things out and enjoy causing harm.

Yea there was an ridiculous amount of logic fallacies in that… at least you saw that.

“Evil” is extremely subjective, tbh
