This is akin to reporting water is wet...
If everyone around you is an asshole then maybe you're the asshole.
If everyone around you is a "sociopath", then perhaps you are the sociopath. A sociopath who wants to control the actions of millions of others based on whatever news story scared you that day.
If your aim is truly about public safety then you need to crusade against alcohol instead.

Science: psychology cannot be reproduced or validated, only observed and opined on
Media: pscyhology matters more than physics, it can predict everything, let's find correlations

The actual article title: "Sociopathic traits linked to not wearing a mask or social distancing during pandemic: study"
Unfortunately for those with disabilities precluding them from wearing a mask--or who know that they do not have COVID or had it previously and have recovered, etc.--they now get a new insult lobbed at them by mask shamers: "sociopath". As if being called a "Karen", "anti-masker", etc. were not already dismissive enough.

What disabilities preclude wearing masks?
How does one know that they don't have Covid?
Do we know for sure that someone who previously had Covid cannot become a spreader again?

- PTSD (combat veterans, survivors of abuse, rape, kidnapping, etc.) or other mental health issues, facial injuries/deformities, lung conditions.
How does one know that they don't have Covid?
- Testing; recovering from the virus and passing a test.
Do we know for sure that someone who previously had Covid cannot become a spreader again?
- Not much data here that I've found, of course, since it is rare and new. One could be overly cautious because it is "novel" and assume that a healthy immune system could allow reinfection fairly quickly as there have been a few documented reinfections, or look at other coronaviruses (MERS/SARS) and assume that is more likely to take months to years to become infectious, after being infected again.

Orange man bad

~1500 people were given both a questionnaire about their opinions on covid containment measures as well as....to use a quote from the study
>answered facets from the PID-5, the Affective resonance factor of the ACME
They then took those that scored lower on certain traits, matched them with their answers on the covid questionnaire and drew the conclusion that those who disagree with lockdown measures are sociopathic.
This study is bad science, its conclusions are flawed and the news keeps spreading this utter bullshit as fact.
