Sociopathic Traits Linked to Not Wearing a Mask or Social Distancing During Pandemic

A recent study out of Brazil may shed some light on why some people are so resistant to wearing masks.
quote:
Researchers from the State University of Londrina found that people who reported “antisocial traits,” such as low levels of empathy and high levels of callousness and risk-taking, were less-likely to comply with Covid-19 prevention measures, such as wearing a mask and social distancing.
In this case, “antisocial” refers to traits that are typically present in people diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder, which is defined as “a chronic and pervasive disposition to disregard and violate the rights of others,” according to the American Psychological Association. It is characterized by common behaviors such as repeatedly violating the law and exploiting others, and traits such as deceitfulness, impulsivity, aggressiveness, reckless disregard for the safety of self and others and irresponsibility, according to the APA. People with the mental health condition often lack of guilt, remorse, and empathy.
The disorder is also referred to as “dyssocial personality, psychopathic personality and sociopathic personality.” Antisocial personality disorder occurs in about 1% of the U.S. population, and is more common in men.
“These traits explain, at least partially, the reason why people continue not adhering to the containment measures even with the increasing numbers of cases and deaths,” the Brazilian study authors wrote.
In today’s alarming news...

Social science "researchers" like this are all leftist hacks.

Imagine diagnosing a person’s mental health through them engaging in risky sex.
Is that more or less sociopathic than not wearing a mask?

So people with personalities that buck the prevailing system are bucking the prevailing system?
Wow, what a shocker.

I am the biggest empath I know .. and I wear that mask as little as possible. Don’t wear it to the local grocery store or to mass. I do distance from others in the store and at church we have to sit every other pew.

Classical liberals, conservatives, and libertarians are all considered self-centered sociopaths by the modern left. Wear it as a badge of honor.

Getting Brazilians to comply with anything is like herding cats. Psycho babble.

Sociopaths don’t social distance now?

I'm not sure if reading comprehension is technically a 'sociopathic trait'?

LOL... this your Babylon Bee audition?
So, was Nancy and Bill De Blasio showing their true sociopathic nature by not wearing masks in public ?

And to think I thought a guy taking it in the arse was weird. You non mask wearers are frick'n loco.

Mask Wearers = Masked Covidians, they're a cult of submissive, self loathing, and generally useful idiots, who exhibit psychotic behavior brought on by the belief in Marxism and those who espouse it.

They should just come out and start double daring everybody to wear a mask, and call them chicken if they don’t.
Junior high tactics used by adults for the equivalent of peer pressure.
