@gimulnautti@mastodon.green @InfoDumpTruck@mastodon.social @adam@fedi.adamm.cc @wdlindsy@toad.social the previous post suggested brain scans to identify and omit people whose brain structure indicates a predilection towards psychopathy. Soy concern is less one of "can we fix people who' brain structures correlate with social dominance behavior" and more "can systems elicit social dominance behavior in otherwise neurotypical people."
If the system is toxic, then neurotypicals will act in accordance with the system... Meaning that brain scans would be turned into a weapon to reinforce the system. Most Nazis were neurotypical.

@Hex@kolektiva.social @InfoDumpTruck@mastodon.social @adam@fedi.adamm.cc @wdlindsy@toad.social Yes. That was my point in the very first instance I brought it up.
However, the knowledge of a systematic neurophysiological component cannot either be ignored.
The challenge is ultimately more in the value system. We must be able to treat psychopathy as valuable first, to be able to shape and mold it into beneficial behaviours.
That’s how we mold future society into not bringing out the toxic effects.
