Awarded Psychopathy

This a commentary for an article published by the Independent in 2011: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/comment/brian-basham-beware-corporate-psychopaths-they-are-still-occupying-positions-of-power-6282502.html

We live in a system that rewards psychopathy until they fuck it up with our help and then we turn to them in revenge. It is not the fact that they are monsters that makes us into monsters too, it is just that we let them make us into monsters. If we turn against them at some point, when we finally had enough, and end up losing our humanity killing them like animals, as we did with Mussolini and Hitler (nobody dared to touch Stalin until they were sure he was dead when he finally fell), it is something that we let happen, because we didn't stop them, and root out this psychotic behavior in our society.
Well, to take it one step further, do they not exist, because we give them the advantage? Are we not hunting a monster we made when we go after it? Or where do these sociopaths come from, if not from our ranks?
Maybe we have to learn how to actively identify these features even in us, so that we would not steer people that way with our example. Some will take them to the extremes, and it does seem some of them can't be persuaded not to go and destroy the planet for their insatiable hunger. I know something about that kind of hunger, and for one, that it is often because of some misplaced need, like the need to be loved, that we try and fill with something else, and never get enough, because it is not what we needed to begin with. And some people can never admit it, because what they did so horribly maimed them, so they are left insatiable, some of them even yearning to be stopped.
