Sympathy for the devil (or sociopath)

Keith Raniere has done a series of interviews on a website called
KeithRaniereConversations.com
During one of the interviews
https://www.keithraniereconversations.com/playlist/psychodynamics-crime-violence-compassion/

At 2:38, Mr. Raniere describes sociopaths as seeing the world as a video game.
At 2:50, he describes sociopaths as genetically superior.
At 3:03, he describes sociopaths as not necessarily bad.
At 14:50, he says sociopaths cannot be changed.
At 15:05, he says sociopaths and others can walk hand in hand to a create a peaceful world.
At 15:25, he says sociopaths are necessary, because we only understand what compassion is by its absence in sociopaths.
He appears by these candid admissions to identify himself as a sociopath, which he considers to be not a bad thing, but something that makes him superior, indeed someone we should be thankful for!
The above paraphrases from the cited original video qualify as fair-use for purposes of criticism, news reporting, teaching, and research.
Mr. Raniere has a treasure trove of teachings online that for the careful observer will give clues to what he really hopes to teach..

The problem though with sociopaths is that they are like insects who will always turn on you. Always self destruct. There is no living with these people. They belong in jail. Me and my friends are stunned that a very stupid little man tricked all the people who took the courses. If you watch any of his videos he's so stupid. Sooooooooooo sssssssstupid. His IQ must be very average. The only thing he had going for him is he was able to lie.
And anyone who enrolled people should feel highly responsible and do the right thing to take this man down by all legal means.
Now all we can hope is that the women and others he has brainwashed are able to get out and have normal lives again. Once they are de-programmed, and they realize that they were tricked by a very stupid little man as well, it will burn a lot more than the branding.
