Sociopaths in the news: Megaupload


From a reader:

I was wondering if you followed the arrest of the megaupload.com crew in New Zealand. Kim Schmitz also known as Kim Dotcom, the founder had some pretty interesting reactions, and I think he might be sociopath as well. In addition to having a history of scamming and shady deals of which he was also convicted of in Europe, I personally have dealt with him and was almost scammed by the guy. I dealt with him once many years ago when he tried to organize an exotic car rally, the entry was supposed to be 50,000$ and the pot 1 million. Of course the race never happened and all those who paid didn't get their money back. He managed to collect quite a few deposits and made off with them. The very first time I spoke to him I had my spidey sense tingling me and decided against any further dealings with him. He does exhibit a lot of ASPD traits as observed by myself and as you can probably deduce from the following article, if you please to read it.

So first after the police descended on his mansion with helicopters he hid behind electronic defenses installed in his house, after those were breached by the police he hid inside a "panic room" and the police had to cut through it to get to him. Sounds almost like a caricature.  After that debacle, he goes on to say he has nothing to hide, and was happy to pose for pictures to the press. All of his past dealings and convictions related to him  are scams, accusations of insider trading, stock manipulation, and more scams.

What cemented my opinion about him having ASPD was also the fact that in between him trying to convince me to sign up for his rally, the next subject of conversation was how awesome and rich he was, and every few phrases or so he made a reference to his wealth. He talked about how much money he was making to the point I felt that he was either a very very insecure man, or a complete fool. Now I know better, and I'm pretty sure he is a bona fide sociopath. I've met a lot of people with fragile egos that need to boast and such but this guy... Nothing like him. He was definitely wealthy back then too, no doubt about it, but he was acting like we should be grateful to him for giving us the "amazing opportunity" to participate in his event.

One more thing to note, in spite of his flaws and quirks, he struck me as a very very intelligent man.

Editor's note: I was also persuaded by the aforementioned article's reference to his ties to two germans and one dutchie, who apparently were also megaupload.com leaders.  Central Europeans do not have a good track record for morality, and if they were attracted to Kim Dotcom (also German) enough to want to work under him, that is further proof to me that Dotcom was a charismatic and amoral leader.  Or it could be the shared language and culture.  Also from the article:

Possessions taken from Dotcom's Coatesville mansion provided a hint of the accused men's extravagant lifestyles. Eighteen luxury cars worth a combined $6m were taken from the site, including a 2008 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drop Head Coupe, with the licence plate GOD, and a 1959 pink Cadillac. Others including Mercedes Benz, a Maserati and a Harley Davidson motorbike with licence plates including POLICE, STONED, GUILTY and MAFIA.
***
Dotcom maintained an extraordinary public profile, funding a huge New Year's Eve fireworks display over Waitemata Harbour in 2010 and commenting publicly on his charitable giving, including to the victims of the Christchurch earthquake and the Starship Foundation in Auckland.
***

In a recent online missive Dotcom wrote about his life in New Zealand, saying how he heard local singer Gin Wigmore on the radio and wanted her to record the "Mega Song".

With a casual mention of how he was "chilling in the studio" with the Black Eyed Peas, he said Wigmore took the offer, came to the studio in Auckland, and nailed the song in three takes.
***
Other material found uploaded [on megaupload.com]
included child pornography and terrorism propaganda videos, according to the indictment.

  6. Ok I’m a post behind.

    Kanney, you asked me how I define empathy. Very loosely, I imagine it means to feel what someone else feels. This capacity is rather blunted in me, although it exists, to be sure. I have to be self-aware and mindful of a person’s feelings when in conversation with them to respond “empathetically”, because the emotional feedback loop I have tends to get jammed. This takes an effort.

    When someone relates a struggle or trial to me, I will listen attentively and mirror all of the correct responses. Until recently, I thought everyone did this without necessarily feeling much of anything inside. I still cling to the belief that many people do, at the very least, exaggerate their emotional capacity to relate to others.

    Intensely emotional situations make me feel awkward. For instance, when the husband of a person who is purportedly close to me had a heart attack last summer, I did not visit the hospital. I didn’t even call her until her man was out of the woods. I wrote an e-mail expressing my condolences and support, and I prayed for her family, but I could not go to the hospital and face all of my friends and colleagues and somehow try to deal with that hairy-scary emotional mess. I was afraid of reacting abnormally.

    In retrospect, this may be why I always hung out with the guys in high school. The girls either baffled and repulsed me or made me want to get down their pants. I used a core group of silly little girls to secure popularity and wield influence, but emotional intimacy makes me uncomfortable, because in some ways, I just don't get it.

    I think I have confused empathy and sympathy in the past. I’ll use a recent example with someone on this board. After writing a nasty response to TNP, I initially felt glib and self-satisfied. But about an hour later, after smoking a little joint (pot really helps me to feel stuff) I was overcome with a very powerful tug of… sympathy for him. Now this happens rarely to me- even wherein people close to me are concerned- so I initially mischaracterized the emotion as empathy. (The identification of altruistic emotional states is not my forte, lol!) It came out of the blue and it was very strong. So I repented of my hurtful words. But I still gave in to the antisocial urge to verbally spar with him later, because I felt he needed to be shown something too. (Come on. The guy's a sociopath. He has thick skin, hehe.)

    Now this connection was not entirely fleeting. Over the next few days, the Lord kept pressing him on my heart. Whenever this happened, I would pray for him. Mind you, I did not *feel* anything other than a little nag to pray for him- it was nothing like that first time.

    Now that he has revealed that he has cancer, I understand why it happened. Moreover, I know *how* to pray for him.

    (This is what I meant when I said that the Holy Spirit is my conscience. Left to my own devices, I’m a pretty big shit most of the time, lol!)

    I am trying to cultivate being mindful of the need to demonstrate empathy.

    Fake it till ya make it, I say :)

  8. Meditating, praying, hoping, wishing, and telepathically sending good vibes to the unfortunate, may make you feel better, but they don’t change circumstances. But since you don't have these feelings Alterego, what is the point ??

    Double blind studies on patients show no prayer effect -- except for that fact if you tell patients that you are praying for them, they do marginally worse.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I'll bet it was, too.

    But what do you care?

    ReplyDelete
  10. Per the self actualization discussion, if I had to say anyone who came close on SW, it would be ME and Alterego. ME provides a blog, at his own expense, in order for others to get help. Alterego considers the welfare of others beyond the small boundaries of her own ego. They, both, has a concern that is higher than themselves, as is the CRUX of self actualization. In reality, few people achieve self actualization.It can be approximated, at times, only. It is not a loose term given to an ape in the zoo which scratches his testicles, as apes do lol

    ReplyDelete
  11. Why do you care.....that I care ?

    Mr Emotionless ?

    ReplyDelete
  12. ... And other studies have shown the opposite to be true.

    Attempting to "scientifically" study something like prayer is patently ridiculous, imo. Faith and science are separate domains.

    And I do have feelings. I never said that it doesn't make me feel good to pray for someone.

    I have made my beliefs clear and I don't give a rat's ass what anyone thinks of them. They are personal and part of my world view. If you don't like 'em, don't read my posts. Or argue until you get bored. If I am, I just may respond. But don't hold your breath. :)

    ReplyDelete
  13. It does make me feel good- at least temporarily. But it is shallow. I just cannot seem to hold on to any emotional state for very long.

    ReplyDelete
  14. The problem with delusional people (Alterego) is that they need others to feed their delusions.

    "They are personal and part of my world view"

    Exactly, and keep your personal belief in a superdaddy in the sky at home where it belongs. We don't need to hear about your "praying" as just like you said, "it is a part of my personal world view" and that is ALL it is.

    Think of this for a moment. People like you get enraged when someone brings up something prayer, in a Christian context. Where does that anger/passion come from? This level of hatred is reserved for Christians, alone. People know the power of the TRUE God. That is what fuels their hatred.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Arguments from ignorance and incredulity are always fallacies. That includes yours. That somebody imagines something does not mean it actually exists, it just means they're capable of imagining things. To show existence you need evidence of existence, not evidence that humans are capable of imagining things.

    Seek help, and meds.

    ReplyDelete
  19. HEY! that is NOT the real Kyle Towns! I am. And I don't care about religion of god. As much as I don't care that Bible Anon is Alterego.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Ooh here we go. I've seen that one copied and pasted here before.

    Shut up and go back to your cave, KTroll. I've already debated that point ad nauseum: I am not under the impression that I can provide "evidence" for God; I can only relate my subjective, personal experiences, which I do not presume will convince anyone! My post was not addressed to you.

    I'll talk about whatever I want here, including skydaddies, if it suits me. If you don't like it, you can shove your head right back up your ass, where it has clearly been held hostage a long, long time. I'd offer you kleenex to wipe the shit from out of your ears, but I wouldn't want to unnecessarily sacrifice any trees. So just ignore my posts. :)

    I have stuff to do now. Later SW!

    But for the last time... Bible Anon is NOT Alterego! LOL

    I'm really not Bible Anon. Believe what you want, but we are different people. I think she comes out to play when I do because she sees it as an opportunity to minister to you, or something. :)

  24. Yeah, you are not Bible Anon Alterego. HE just appears only when YOU do. And you are NOT a she. You don't even type like one.

    Nice try, but fail

    ReplyDelete
  25. Also- Bible Anon is into making love, as opposed to kinky sex. :) She also appears to be a lot nicer than me in general.

    I often do not speak in a very Christian manner, especially on this board. I struggle with impulse control, dontcha know. But I am only fooling around- and I think that most of you understand that, just as I assume that most of the people here on Sociopaths-R-Us have pretty thick skin, Kyle included. Sorry if I *actually* insulted you, though. I just like that I can give full vent to my thoughts here. :)

    I don't know that for sure. Last week was spent trying to get things in order, to see if I qualify for a special health care program they offer, so I can get on a sliding scale payment set up. Tomorrow, I go in for another ultrasound with a clinic within that network. The tumors may very well be benign, but they are causing serious issues regardless, and will probably have to be removed.

    We shall see.

    I'm not going to make a big deal out of it, till I know for sure what's going on. And even then...

  54. @Joker: knowledge must always be repeated in some form, but it becomes far more valuable if you enhance it with original insights.

    I was once falsely accused of being a copy-paste Christian. When I see fit to defend the Bible in a debate with someone I deem a *worthy* opponent, I resort primarily to material I have written myself. (And I do enjoy writing and researching.)

    Naturally, I glean *information* from my studies. But you have regurgitated a shallow, easily de-bunked, opinion based post... again.

    It is tiresome, and unworthy of my defense.

  60. Defend the bible ? Ego ? The contradictions are on purpose and serve a multitude of purposes.

    By being vague they can easily mean anything, and you don't need me to tell you how people have negatively "interpreted" these things to mean whatever they wanted them to.

    Now did you also know that there is a deeper purpose for these contradictions, absurdities and ambiguities?

    1. The believer can never truly understand the "word of God". This is an important concept, I can't stress that enough. Because never understanding fully the "word of God" is exactly what makes faith possible in the first place. They can only have faith because as odd, contradictory or even false as what they just read was, they HAVE to believe it because-

    a. Not having faith in God they believe dooms them either to hellfire or to cease to exist upon death (again, depending on how you choose to translate it).

    b. Satan is said to be the tempter. Every person who points out these flaws must be under the control of Satan, or at least mislead by him.

    Because the believer cannot understand the Bible, this is assumed because God is beyond our understanding. While most believe that the contradictions are mistakes, they are in fact done on purpose to create an unquestioning credulity in the true believer.

    This sounds like-

    Question-

    "Why does God order the deaths of so many people when he clearly states that 'Thou shalt not kill'?"

    Answer-

    "Well humans can't possibly understand the word of God!"

    When you point out the flaws-the responses you get will be-

    1. "There are no contradictions in the Bible-it is perfect." This can be disprove in about three minutes by someone of a basic reading level.

    2. "Well we can't understand the workings of God!" ...then how do you know what he really wants?

    3. "It's taken out of context!" ...you can quote the entire bible and it would still be out of context to them because at the end they will go back to "Well we can't understand the workings of God!"

    Do not trust your eyes, do not trust your ears! That is the message of the Bible.

    Religion is designed to control the masses. It does this by convincing them they are stupid, weak and powerless, and the only way to have any comfort or security is to admit this and give all their loyalty (even above their families) to the doctrine. Because they are stupid they cannot fathom the words of God, they rely on clergy to do so. Clergy serve to preach and interpret the doctrine according to what the government at the time wishes.

    "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live."

    Do they still preach that today in Sunday School?

    What all of this does is create a mindset that is gullible, fearful and weak.

    And it does a damn good job of it too.

    This is an extremely deep subject that I could go on and on about, but at the moment I need to get some rest.

  115. "The weak believe in the bible, because they haven't the fortitude to face life on their own. They pray to god because they themselves have no hope. In return for hope they give their unconditional servitude and self loathing."

    Sez you. It would be *a lot* easier for me to get through life discounting the Bible. I wouldn't have to try nearly as hard as I do to reform my character and develop traits that do not come naturally to me at all! Applying the Bible's teachings in my life has bred true strength in my character, which you call self-loathing, for reasons I cannot fathom at present. I don't hate myself at all, Ukan: the Bible has taught me to love myself in the way that I should. But you are free to disagree and apply your own methods.

    I think it takes a lot more strength to resist base impulses than to indulge them consistently. But then, I am under the impression that our respective definitions of "strength" diverge vastly.

    Perhaps you do not need the Bible to help you do this, but it sure helps me. You call that weakness if you want to, but I prefer to call it applied wisdom.

  120. I think it takes a lot more strength to resist base impulses than to indulge them consistently. But then, I am under the impression that our respective definitions of "strength" diverge vastly.

    Wrong. Most people resist their base impulses with the help of their religion, which is why there is a larger percentage of believers in the world than there is atheists.

    You are self loathing because you excuse a book which is anti-woman in it's entirety. On a individual level it is also self loathing in the fact that you are less of a person outright without some fake god propping you up. It requires submisssion. Fucking slave. I don't require anything at all to live my life and that makes me stronger than you. I stand on my own feet and make my own decisions. I don't believe in some rubbish that tells me to be silent and come up with excuses for it's behaviour that you call interpretations.

    You all of a sudden want to play psychologist in here. Funny. All you do in here is spend time getting punted from one end to the other. Nobody in here has respect for you, cunt.

  127. Ukan: I don't have a problem with the Bible telling me to respect my own husband and to refrain from interrupting him when he is teaching in church. This does not mean I loathe myself. I have no doubt read the Bible far more extensively than you, and I do not glean from it anything that is profoundly misogynistic. For you to dismiss the entire book on the basis of a few passages you dislike is akin to throwing the baby out with the bathwater. But you are free to do so.

    I will engage you, because I respect your opinions, but I don't give a shite what you think about the Bible.

    In my view, submission and weakness are not synonymous, unless one's submission is blind, uninformed, or involuntary.

The Bible has also taught me to value humility, a trait I do not possess in abundance and one that I would not have chosen to cultivate on my own, hehe.

    I know what maslows theory does. Yours doesnt. You dont understand what youre talking about because all you can see s the goodness and benevolence in the end. Youre idealistic. And foolish. The "altruism" of self actualization is derived from accomplishing your potentialas being usefulfor others. The altruism you speak of is an understanding of people at a base level because of your own personal excellence beyond yourself. Symbolically its potrayed in dreams by godly symbols such as dreams of light becoming worlds and dreams of creation that present larger problems to your subconscious than the before problems of the immediate, such as symbols of family, relationships, flying, etc. Youre goals become so large that the aspects people bring no longer present issues you interest in. Youre ignorant caroline, and simple minded, so everyone here discards you. People find you too insignificant to even afront or discus.

    What does self actualization have to do with altruism at all? Self-actualization is recognition and achievement of your personal potential. I don't see why altruism or humility have to fall into this.

  142. Oh ok Alter so I guess your book tells you where you can and can not speak as a woman. That's pretty liberating. Well at least it allows you to speak in here. For that we can be greatful. From genesis to revelations one thing is certain in the bible: Women are dirty and disgraced. You believing in such a book is the definition of self loathing.

    Imagine someone saying: My husband says I'm not allowed to teach in church or speak at all. But he loves me. He has his reasons. Close to a thousand years ago women gossiped in church. They don't want that happening again.

    The above is considered a weak idiot. Which is exactly what I consider you.

  147. Here is the thing you and Kanney are missing. You cannot understand human nature without a scintilla of humility LOL

    That's why i was dramatically humble the entirety of the developmental stages of my life. Self actualization requires you to step past humility to discover and expound your own ideas to develop your potential separately from your subconscious. It requires people to act decidedly to balance their personality. It requires that people move beyond the social requirements people set on them and into their own values and uses. Its beyond good and bad but functional until you realize that aspect of yourself and desire to teach and perpetuate yourself into the world. It isnt altruism, its godliness.

    ReplyDelete
  148. Alterego. I know nothing of the bible. I read the whole thing when I was in the fourth grade and tried to make sense of who it was that I was following. I sat there every sunday and wednesday and tried to figure out why I was praying to someone who doesn't owe me shit. Not only that, but there was no proof at all that this mystical being existed.

    So I am ignorant to this whole thing. I don't understand the need to even go to church, and pray, and preach, and follow. Bringing up all that hub bub of the bible won't work with me the way.

    I can say this, and it's based on life experience. No one needs to follow anyone or anything other than their own instinct. There is nothing wrong with getting someone's $0.02, but at the end of the day your choice is the only one that matters. I think people follow religion to give themselves and excuse when something does not turn out there way. It's almost like a constant state of denial. "Johnny died though I was praying for him to live, oh well, God decided it was time for him to go". That's bullshit. Not only that, but even if you make a bad decision, part of the excellence of living is to have had the experience in the first place. You take what that experience gave you, and roll with it. Nothing we do on this planet has anything to do with a god. It has everything to do with your own decision. God didn't help you get better, common sense and some self discipline did. You're an idiot to think otherwise.

    The only god I will ever believe in is Myself. That's the only way it makes sense to me.

    I DON'T pretend to understand everything the Bible teaches, but it does not teach that I shouldn't speak in church at all. If this were the case, Priscilla would have been shunned for teaching "the way" to others more accurately along with her husband. She wasn't. That passage was written to address a very specific issue within the Corinthian Church. Your saying that it applies universally does not make it so.

    I really don't give a shite what you do or do not consider me, Kannit. This weak fool is bound for Heaven, and a better life in the here and now, because of what you deem to be worthless garbage. :)
