James Fallon Interview | SVT/NRK/Skavlan

That's because real love is a verb, not a feeling.

you must be an idiot to believe anything this man says

@@GROENAASMusic I disagree, it's both.

though, note that the way he determined that he doesn't feel love is through observing behavior, so I wouldn't say that he's fully acting like he's in love, he only have some aspects of it. in particular, if I understood him correctly, the willingness to make sacrifices without any direct gain for himself isn't there

That’s how the dangerous ones dupe people

The irony is that he isn't brave because he doesn't care what other people think about him, to be brave you have to care what other people think about you (not talking fysical bravery).

@@KasperochSiri Yeah, true bravery and courage comes from overcoming fear, psychopaths like Dr Fallon have a certain absence of fear, relating to what he talks about fearless dominance

@@KasperochSiri why would he not care? Of course he cares what others think. If everyone left him and didnt want to be near him cuz they think he is a monster do you not think he would care?

Bravery is to have the heart to sacrifice yourself to do good and great things, sometimes for other people or for yourself. Using bravery to a psychopath is a disgrace to the term. Psychopaths aren't strong. They attack women and children by deception. Strong men don't do that. We fight bigger enemies to protect our homes and our way of living.

@@trandat4 "I believe", you forgot yo write. Now you came out has someone who likes to teach people because he thinks he knows better. I think.

This comment deserves more likes!

Just before this (yt algo?) watched M Gladwell talking about how people might be wired for believing and trusting as it is more useful and functional for family, community (rather than doubts, inquisitivness etc)

because people are idiots.

so true hahah two of the traits of psychopathy are "charming" and "manipulative & lying" and people in the comments straight-on fall for these two hahaha

Or a Hannibal Lecter that has learnt to control himself a bit better, minus the cannibalistic part, ofc ;)

I love this guy he always asks the questions I want to know and I assume most people want to know but interviewers don't think to ask

@@satah5045 except he’s pushing the dulling down of men and the trans human movement as he’s a Marxist psycho

@@pauldunne5230 wow I only watch the interviews and enjoy them and that's enough for me . I don't know of any other controversies around him .

I think psychopathy is kind of a niche of humans, like it’s a specialist. God created them to be maybe soldiers and surgeons etc etc since they’re very good under pressure always calm, never panicking. Same thing with autism, it’s like a niche

@@ok.1999 Ok, you lost me if you are referring to a “man in the sky” god. If you intended a metaphor for evolution and natural laws as Einstein and Spinoza used the word “god” as a metaphor for, then I get that. Have you ever read “The Selfish Gene” by Richard Dawkins. There are definitely niches for certain oddities or even nefarious genetic profiles that manage to reproduce and survive in societies of living organisms. Otherwise the traits ultimately die out.

@@jeanine219 thing is, psychopathy is in the soul. So people get it right when they say it’s born but it’s not genetic, guess what, if it was genetic you’d be able to see it All sorts of genetic differences and any defects or conditions you can see with the eye. It’s the operating system that clicks the mind. Different waves for different types you got stuff like gamma alpha beta and so on, psychopathy and autism are the exact opposites and they are kind of like the extreme. Fine-filtered parts of neurotypicals, hence the niche thing that I’m talking about. One goes one way the other goes the other.

@@ok.1999 Geneticists would disagree with you. Btw. What do you mean by “the soul”? Some magical myth based ghost or immortal apparition residing inside of your body? I subscribe exclusively to science and tested/proven empirical evidence. Not wishful delusions, pseudoscience, religious myths, fairytales, or magical thinking...including all of the tens of thousands of supernatural gods, goddesses, and afterlives promoted by ancient and modern homosapiens. This phenomenon is based on narcissistic terror of ones own inevitable return to non existence, and the desperate wish for immortality and pleasure paradise for infinity. Read “Denial of Death” by Ernest Becker.

​@@ok.1999I'm 100% spiritually minded but psychopathy is absolutely genetic. I believe people can carry personality traits from before birth (soul), but there are many genes that we know of that cause psychopathy. James Fallon in this video has documents showing many genes.

He's doing it out of a self interested passion for things; in this case his own field. The smile he has is simply from reading the interest of the people surrounding him in what he says and how they are completely drawn in. It gives him reassurance and pleasure to see that they are reacting how he wants. That's where high functioning psychopaths quench their thirst, there's still a victim, they still do something to their victims, it's just not violent and the victim has no clue. I'm surprised he didn't go further, high (socially) functioning psychopaths retaliate as well, it's just that it stays within the ethical code they made for themselves which usually doesn't infringe laws.

You may be misunderstanding a little the cognitive empathy. We primarily make moral decisions using cognitive empathy, with emotional empathy left only for certain aspects of life. In other words, most of the time he is faced with exactly the same moral conundrums as we are, the difference being only in lack of some experiences

No he’s trying to turn people against men who have no empathy for idiots. Feelings don’t trump facts. The world is a hard place, we are not psychos, you lot are like bloody girls with your feminism. Which is in fact Marxism in disguise.

@@vandal2811 let him have his "victim". He's not hurting them, he's just influencing them, as we all do (ofc, he's really good at it but I don't think that changes anything)

kzhead.info/sun/qc2iZpR_jHmKhI0/bejne.html Maybe this will provide you with more answers, maybe not!

@@SirJaye82 I wasn't posing a question needing answered, just a thought. Interesting video with interesting info though. Cheers

@@philipcampbell3751 Yeah I know pal, just thought it might be of interest and help you reach a conclusion of sorts.

@@SirJaye82 You have a nice day. Cheers

Trust me, people who are psychopathic know that they are. Maybe they don’t know the term but since birth they know something’s different

then why she dropped me to the floor and lied behind my back?

She was holding her lips to not divulge that she was being outed by him.

Swedish politician named Magdalena Andersson. Everyone hates her and she is the opposite of charming

@@tomasmonkey5432 She's very genuine for a politician and one of very few from the working class. I like her.

She became the Prime Minister of Sweden

"It takes one to know one" ;)

Hell yeah

Omg. I knew someone bad that used to do that. That lizard tongue.

@@mariamanordberg6811 Lol

it's to do with the brain, physcopaths and narccasists tend to have bipolar and ocd. he blinks in stages too when he moves his eyes, everything he does is like a pattern from how he moves his eyes around the group conversation. He is a human with no empathy.

But I think Heath did that to keep moist due to the makeup 💄

99.9% of cases, that's correct. James Fallon is the rare exception, though. He's a borderline psychopath, not a full-blown one. As he points out in other videos, he was never abused at all (many psychopaths were), and he had a wonderful childhood. Those things prevented him from becoming totally unmanageable or predatory. He enjoys being honest about psychopathy, whether it's the elements of psychopathy that he has, or psychopathy in general. It gets him attention, which I'm fine with. Most psychopaths are not the violent serial killers we see on TV, but they can still be traumatizing to deal with.

@@TheBadSpoon Amazing how there are more psychopaths walking around than we imagine. They could be your nice next-door neighbour, your dentist, the surgeon who will operate on you soon, your local priest, or your co-worker. They could be anybody. I guess psychopathic teachers working in secondary schools dealing with some students' anti-social behaviour would have an advantage over the sensitive teachers, although they would fail to feel empathy. They could show it, though, after learning the 'tricks' of the 'trade.' So, true, not all psychopaths are serial killers. In fact, it could be advantageous to have one of them doing meticulous professional work for you that requires no emotion. However, be careful; their brain works differently. Don't get on the wrong side of these people. Keep a healthy distance from them if you suspect you are in front of a psychopath, whether they sound and act completely 'normal' or not. Something at some point will go amiss. You will feel it and you might not be able to put your finger on it. Use your intuition.

Especially when you see where he thinks the best path for man kind is? Or trans humans or mechahumans. Total psycho.

@@TheBadSpoon I can’t see how just having lack of empathy means your a psycho. Doesn’t mean your malicious. Just means people have feelings they can’t control and you have no time for their feelings. Who gets your buildings built? Your roads built? Is men who care not for your every feeling. But tell you to pull your socks up and get on with your work. I know which one I trust to get the job done and it’s certainly not the cry baby who moans if he’s not mollycoddled. Women who think they have any idea of how a mans mind works need to get help. We will not be trained and tamed we are not dogs. We made this world and you will destroy it. Feminism is just a part of Marxism. Your all sheep with no clue.

Psychos are very likeable. This man is a master manipulator, I can’t believe people fall for it.

@@LOSTINFICTIONENGLAND LOL

@@LOSTINFICTIONENGLAND When did he ever say he wasn't? 💀

For his wife it is imagine your husband not "really" loving you

@@WalterClements.official He does 'love' her, as long as she provides everything that he needs of her. It's not unconditional, but it's love nonetheless

He and his wife are entitled to any level of privacy they decide. I don't fault him

Watch his moth hour talk for more information on his whole life.

@@joshuajenkins1937 I said nothing about privacy. Neither did I fault him.

Like they say, not every narcissist is a psychopath but EVERY psychopath is a narcissist

@@meshezza I have a narcissist in my social circle. It's difficult to describe just how damaging that person is.

and a psychopathic induvidual.

Unfortunately, not. He clearly explains that early childhood environment (which is usually up to 5 y.o.) defines the outcome for the person without self regulation and there is actually no choice. Choices come much later if the person acknowledges their impact on others and if they decide to do something about it. Most of the psychopaths and I would add people with cluster B personality disorders (who presumably are not genetically predisposed to their condition) did not have a choice and they might decide to do something only when they have hit a definitive rock bottom in their lives.

He probably killes his wifes feelings and dreams about having a loving caring husband. I bet he destroyed a lot of supposed to be ' happy' moments for her. Its the kind of man that constantly sendsyou the message: you're on your own, i dont really care or love you.

That you know about 🤨

@@nefelibata4190 Dude hasn't hurt anyone, and you can't hold being a psychopath against someone. You're just born that way. Hurting people though, that's when judging can start.

@@XOChristianaNicole Makes sense

improvisation in music (making it up as you go)

Clearly other people describe to him certain patterns of behaviors or emotions to which he can't relate therefore implying that he does not have the ability to do so. Same with people who are blind, if everyone was blind they wouldn't be able to tell the difference but because most of us can see we translate that experience, which makes them come to the realization that they in fact are blind.

People are born as psychopaths, which is predatory, not necessarily evil. Neurotypicals sense a fearless and cold person and get it mixed up thinking they are evil, no, they can be but not necessarily Is a lion that does what it was born to do evil? No. Same thing with psychopaths.

@Alehandro Fuego Factor 1 or 2, and was it ASPD?

@@volumedogs6422 because of no sense of danger because he has no activity in amgdala

yeah people get mad but they cant help to be the offer the prey

@@VictoriaWonders however I can say that this james fallon has not so "enchanted" me ... in the sense that to truly fall into the psychological trap of a psychopath, one must really be naive and even a little slow to understand and be unfamiliar with psychological matters. No human being is invincible. everyone finds someone smarter and more ruthless.

That's not a good analogy. You can be intelligent and compassionate. To be able to build, nourish and maintain trust from friends and the public is an advantage.

That's why u need to develop an evil side urself as a good person for protection only to be used wisely

@@dante19890 However it can't matter: Psycho or not, eventually we will all return to the dust in the eternal Nothinghess. We are nothing in this universe. Humans are foolish and self-distructive. Eventually we will become extinct, and there will be no one missing us. Neither a God nor anyone else. Nihilistic conclusion.

I agree, psychopathy is a natural human thing. It’s like specialists.

😊

It’s not by choice and it isn’t evil. Some people are born less emotional. They can still be good people.

I watched more of him on the PsychopathyIs channel and he is not only a professor of neuroscience which would be one answer, but also actively trying to override his psychopathic tendencies so I think he is willing to share the knowledge with the "normal" people.

There exist individuals like him

He admitted to being highly narcissistic. This is a source of A LOT of supply for him. It also helps society to it’s a win-win.

@@hopbup7401 also, since he's a psychopath he feels no shame when talking about these tendencies, so there's no barrier there.

What? The exact opposite. He is cool all the way through.

Alessio Marin it’s literally impossible for him to FEEL nervous

@@zigzagzog66 Wrong. So many people have wrong impressions of psychopaths. Psychopaths just don't have emotional antipathy - that's it. I don't know where all this "they don't cry, they aren't scared, they aren't nervous" thing came from... psychopathy isn't some sort of a movie superman lol

Being nervous is part of emotion he isn't

@@Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrw they don’t feel fear, they don’t care.

Because intellectualizing music in this probably won't get you the same enjoyment, or that of others. Music is in sense an exploration of it's own.

True your 100% accurate on that

Consciousness is not the same thing as a conscience. Psychopaths have consciousness - i.e. are self-aware - what they lack is a fully functioning conscience -a sense of right and wrong and morality.

Yes, you are right. In my language it seems that there is no difference because those 2 words have the same translation but even tho they are used for those 2 different meanings. And even tho, it´s hard to imagine that those 2 things are not in the same part of the brain..

This is why we need a new definition for it. I have done every diagnostic possible, and i test through the roof on the "psychopath test", higher then James Fallon. and i have been clinicially diagnosed as a psychopath. Twice. So automatically i run around with a chainsaw and eat human intestines for dinner, right? (just for the record: never commited a violent crime, and never wanted to. did set fire to a public buildingat the age of 10 however. empty, no one got hurt) A moral compass can be taught. It's basic information. We know right from wrong. And like James, i also want to do good. Probably because i feel like i score social points by doing so, and approval is important to me,(and extremely confusing,) as opposed to a warm fuzzy feeling. and avoiding the bad things is simply a risk analysis. but does that matter? all humans are motivated through incentives, the difference is just that our incentives are more pragmatic. in conclusion: the fact that i know all this, and i have spent years seeking knowledge about the issue. makes me extremely more self-aware than average joe across the globe.

@@Aqualyra conscientiousness is the word actually. as a non-english speaker, I have had trouble with the words conciousness, concience and conscientiousness myself.

It doesnt exclude self-awareness - they just don´t bring in other people in the picture as a factor, they think about others when they need something, they dont "waste" time "feeling" about people, generally.

No I don’t find him charming. And I don’t think those women do either. The women look like they are being polite. Look closer, the Swedish one is smiling but you can see she can only hold this for so long and then her face drops because her smile is fake. Look at the blonde lady, her mouth is smiling and her eyes are giving a completely different reaction. As a woman I don’t find this man attractive or charming

@@meshezza Interesting. Thank you for your input, Kerry.

@Filma Tets That makes sense.

There’s a difference in being confident and being narcissistic. A confident person doesn’t always demand to be the centre of attention. They are usually looking for genuine, interesting people to make actual connections with and are very self aware. Confident people value themselves for what they bring to the table and know, not only their worth but yours too. People often make the mistake of believing narcissism is confidence because a narcissist will usually be at the centre of attention and quite often the loudest in the room. Often referred to as “the life and soul of a party” But they are also obsessed with other peoples perception of them but weirdly, have little self awareness. They are insecure underneath it all because connections are shallow and they believe deep down they are not worthy so they use manipulative behaviours, which again can seem like confidence. They only think about what they can take from the table and what benefits them

Women may be charmed at first but your gut instinct will tell you if that person is a confident or is just acting. Whether you listen to your gut or can spot manipulative behaviour is a whole other topic 🙃
