Do you have to be an unlikeable sociopath to be successful?
>>
No, it's generally a hinderance
>>
In white collar? Absolutely.
>>
perhaps the likeable successful people are not known as they dont do anything that makes them known

>sociopath
this just means you make you make the rational necessary decisions all the women (read: weak men) don't want to make
>>
>>222758831
To be a corporate leader, yeah probably. Nobody's gonna respect you unless they're at least somewhat scared of you.
>>
>>222758831
no, first you're successful, then people who resent you project these fantasies onto you that you're a monster etc etc, in order to cope
>>
>>222758904
This anon gets it
>>222758896
This anon doesn't understand nuance. You can be a well liked leader who people are still scared of underperforming for because they know you'll make the right business decision by canning their ass
>>
no. trump is successful and he cares almost too much about the well being of other people
>>
Depends what you're trying to be successful in
If your dick cures cancer you don't need to be sociopath

You dont HAVE to be you HAVE to be WILLING to be unlikable. Successful people are like the annoying Straight A student you got stuck with on a class project. You may only care about getting a C, but he is going to hound your ass so he gets an A.

as workplaces become more feminized, previously normal behaviors get labeled as "sociopathic," "narcissistic," "abusive" and so forth, because women are psychologically incapable of handling the male social dynamics that characterize high-performance work environments.
>>
>>222759071
The straight A student just does the project himself and would prefer the C shitter to keep as far away from the project as possible.

No, the last majority of successful people are Ned Flanders types. Unlikable sociopaths make for better TV. They do dramatic things instead of getting up at 5:30am and being into cycling.

You're retarded to think Logan was unlikable BEFORE he made it to the top, he was the most charming, psychopathic weasel UNTIL he was in an untouchable position.
>>
>>222758831
No, you need to be a likeable sociopath.
But once the sociopath is fuck-you-rich, he probably doesn't have to pretend anymore.
>>
>>222759294
Logan can be pleasant, likable, and charming when he wants to be, he just doesn't see a need to be nice to his kids or his groveling underlings.

Yeah you're right with that nuance, the wealthy have a public persona and a closed door persona, you never really meet the person until you build an actual relationship with them

Because there were dozens of different tribes who fought each other for thousands of years before whites showed up, and they hated each other so much that many of them allied with whitey at first since they viewed it as an opportunity to get one over on their ancient enemies.

No. Its a meme to further isolate people and turn them against their fellow worker

Except every place that has a US military base wants it there. If they told us to fuck off then we'd leave, but every time we try to move even a few troops out foreign leaders freak out and start crying.

Most unlikable sociopaths are not successful because they spend most of their time on 4chan.

Depends on where you work and what you do. I worked with plenty of white collar C-Suite cunts and most of them are borderline retarded monkies witha big ego. The real smart ones usually fuck off to a post in the c-suite that lets them slack off. The real power are the secretaries.

All that shit in the Sahel is kind of funny, if also grim. The US and French troops wouldn't go around slaughtering whole villages so the leaders got mad, kicked the US and French out, and decided to try using Russians instead. Those Russians then did slaughter those villages, which only made the survivors freak out and sign up with the jihadists/anti-government militias which swelled their ranks. Good job, retards.

it's only "kino" if you're at least spiritually a commie, which at this point applies to most of this board, unfortunately.

yeah I played it for like 2 hours and thought it was meh. the writing is interesting but the fact it slants in only one direction with no nuance or even attempts at prolepsis means it is very undercooked
if you want real ideas, just read philosophy. even polemics like Nietzsche will at least anticipate and address opposing arguments while advancing their own viewpoints

>>222759709
To be fair, the Okinawans hate having the US Military in Okinawa (source: used to live there) and the Japanese government has repeatedly asked the US to leave. The US doesnt do so because its a very strategic location to launch offensives in Asia.
>>
>>222760073
You realise the working and middle classes have better standards in many countries around the world than USA right?

Having record numbers of billionaires able to afford to go to Epstein's island doesn't actually improve your life
>>
>>222760436
This is a silly trope. America's middle class is enormous. No one making >$200k in a HCOL is struggling to survive or going bankrupt over medical bills. And $100k takes you very far in MCOL/LCOL which are analogous to some crumbling old village in Italy that's never even heard of heated bathroom tiles
>>
>>222760436
Name a single country with a higher standard of living than the US that doesn't also rely heavily on the US for military protection. You can't, because there isn't one.
>>
>>222758831
Logan was the most likeable character on the show.

>>222760436
>middle classes have better standards in many countries around the world than USA
maybe in a handful, depending how you measure it, and all of them still within the american empire.

>Having record numbers of billionaires able to afford to go to Epstein's island doesn't actually improve your life
generic commie screeching. nobody needs epstein's island in your beloved third-world shitholes when they can just fuck kids on the spot. their epstein's island is their own living room, or the nearest corner with child prostitutes. that people need to fuck off to private islands to commit a crime is an indication that you live under the rule of law. that does in fact improve your life.

They were our west-alinged, cold war ally, /h/-let. Like it or not, they're on our side, and you don't just leave your ally in the dirt. India was Russia-aligned, and P was instrulmental in the overthrow of the USSR via Afghan wars by letting us send in Al-Qaeda. Probably a mistake, in hindsight (no pun), but here's a great, criminally-overlooked movie on it, to keep on topic, from 2007:

The devs literally fucking admitted to be Marxists. And the game is overtly nice to communists if you decide to take that route. Compare that to how often the game shits on you for being a fascist.

they didn't; they just need a spot to party together and to make sure the victims can't run. obviously trick houses are still common in every city in the usa
