Having had personal experience with a sociopath (and no, most of them are not serial killers) I can without a doubt say people on the right exhibit this disorder more than any other group of people.
Sociopaths/narcissists are concerned with themselves and no one else, they look at people as tools to benefit themselves and could care less about the well being of others. Basically its the ultimate selfishness.
The left wants medical coverage for everyone, even if it means a little higher taxes. The right says to hell with everyone else, even if they are sick. The left believe in safety nets when people fall on hard times, the right says screw them, its not my problem. The left is concerned about the environment, the right does everything in its power to protect companies that damage the environment. Pretty obvious which ones are sociopaths.
No, you see the problem is you are now saying that the left's refusal to accept self-responsibility (a class sign of sociopathic behavior) is not a sign that they are all sociopaths.
The entire ideology of Socialism and of the Welfare-State is a Sociopathic Construct.
As far as your charges that by some how seeking to have everyone responsible for themselves makes the right Sociopathic. I can only urge that you go back and read the actual traits. No where in them is "wants other people to be responsible for themselves", "wants not to be victimized by others", "wants to keep everything that they earn with their sweat."
Those phrases are not in the definition.
What is in the description is
"Ignores their victims suffering"
This isn't an action of the right, by refusing or objecting to being forced to help those people we are not victimizing them.
However, by forcefully taking our money the left is victimizing us, and they show the sociopathic behavior of not being able to recognize the pain they are causing us, or vainly attempting to justify it by arguing that we can "afford it." An arbitrary judgment that ignores the fact that just because some one is making money, especially a recent college graduate, or a entrepreneur, doesn't mean that they do not have debts or other obligations to fulfill. Especially in the case of the entrepreneur which may have obligations to shareholders (to return a portion of the profits to them) or to lienholders (to pay debts incurred to start the business.)
They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.
The left insists that people must be coerced into helping others.
While the right wants everyone to be equally independent. What is good enough for me, is good enough for everyone else, and that's the government leaving us the hell alone. There is no, oh, that person should be singled out be cause he has blonde hair and blue eyes, or is missing a tooth, or was born in a mansion.
That's the attitude demonstrated by liberals in their vain attempts to equalize outcomes.
Grandiose Sense of Self
Feels entitled to certain things as "their right."
Healthcare is a Right, a rallying cry of the Left.
If that's doesn't demonstrate their grandiose sense of self then I don't know what does.
I personally think Healthcare is a commodity, because I can not justify forcing a doctor to treat me. Especially if it was to perform a colonoscopy.
And last but not least.
Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.
The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.
The left can not understand the concept of theft being immoral regardless of what ends it goes towards.
The left, Socialism/Environmentalism/The Left are Sociopathic Movements.
