This is bullshit. There’s no such thing as a personality disorder because there’s no accepted model of what personality means, nor is it fixed. There are psychopathologies which can be identified by lack of empathy, sadistic traits and neurological evidence bears this out. The line between good and evil goes through every human heart. Framing it this way only exacerbates the problem. Blaming the cluster B people who blame others sounds a little cluster b-ish itself. It dehumanises by classification and that is kryptonite for your own empathy. Describing people as disordered personalities tells you nothing really except that you are unable to see their perspective so the problem must be that they are a lower moral, less rational and fundamentally flawed person who you therefore aren’t required to accept as a fellow human like yourself. They are different. It never ends well.
