Irrational hate isn't necessarily, if at all, sociopathic. As the Hate link notes, most are just insecure idiots. That said, lots of JPP members fall into this Hate Model:
The Seven-Stage Hate Model: The Psychopathology of Hate
Not all insecure people are haters, but all haters are insecure people.

What is a sociopath?
A sociopath is a term used to describe someone who has antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). People with ASPD can’t understand others’ feelings. They’ll often break rules or make impulsive decisions without feeling guilty for the harm they cause.
People with ASPD may also use “mind games” to control friends, family members, co-workers, and even strangers. They may also be perceived as charismatic or charming....
...To receive a diagnosis of ASPD, someone must be older than 18. Their behaviors must show a pattern of at least three of the following seven traits:
- Doesn’t respect social norms or laws. They consistently break laws or overstep social boundaries.
- Lies, deceives others, uses false identities or nicknames, and uses others for personal gain.
- Doesn’t make any long-term plans. They also often behave without thinking of consequences.
- Shows aggressive or aggravated behavior. They consistently get into fights or physically harm others.
- Doesn’t consider their own safety or the safety of others.
- Doesn’t follow up on personal or professional responsibilities. This can include repeatedly being late to work or not paying bills on time.
- Doesn’t feel guilt or remorse for having harmed or mistreated others.
Other possible symptoms of ASPD can include:
- being “cold” by not showing emotions or investment in the lives of others
- using humor, intelligence, or charisma to manipulate others
- having a sense of superiority and strong, unwavering opinions
- not learning from mistakes
- not being able to keep positive friendships and relationships
- attempting to control others by intimidating or threatening them
- getting into frequent legal trouble or performing criminal acts
- taking risks at the expense of themselves or others
- threatening suicide without ever acting on these threats
- becoming addicted to drugs, alcohol, or other substances

That’s helpful for people to know
What I am trying to convey by using the word sociopath (about 4 people in 100 are scociopaths) is to point out anti social actions and opinions in the political sphere in the US
The platform of the Republican Party is designed for sociopaths to prosper
I’m not really clinically trying to diagnose individuals every time I use it
The party leadership is likely clinically diagnosable though
Not all liars are sociopaths
Not all sociopaths are liars
If a sociopath is raised correctly they can co operate with society normally
When you raise them to embrace ideas that reaffirm to their broken brains that others are meaningless or even just a worthless burden it’s gets ugly
The Republican Party teaches these tenets
They hate the poor and say it’s their own fault they are poor
That means the poor are horrible people who should just be kicked off the deck into the open sea in the brains of a sociopath
They can’t process that humans have a value
They are broken in the head
For years now the Republican Party has screamed about how much they hate the founders and the constitution
They label it government so people can be fooled about their actual intents
The death of the democracy the founders built for us
Think about the first time you heard the crap about “ the USA is not a democracy”
I think that is near to the time that the Putin effect began in the Republican Party
It gave fools a way to think they sounded well educated and changed the subject to denigrating democracy
Gee sounds kinda like a Russian wet dream huh
Republicans were already cheating in elections
And Putin was KGB
DISINFORMATION was always a KGB fav
They began a slow and methodical phycological molding of the Republicans being aligned with sociopathy
Collecting all the sociopaths and lots of the too stupid to figure it out
Bush’s compassionate conservative thing was a part of it
Pretend to care
Then through war and revenge strip all the emotional need to not feel like a heartless monster away slowly
They still had to cheat in the elections to win
That is why they pulled the shit cork out of the bottle of bees
Sadam was shit but he was a cork in the bottle of bees which was the ME
Sadam was the strongman who crushed Any attempts to build an AQ or Isis type group
They were a treat to his power and he would brutally crush them in infancy
The republicans needed a big war to distract and bring everyone to see him as the leader even morally and not just legally
Right before we entered Iraq 70% of the American people believed Sadam did 911
An utter fucking Republican concocted lie carefully constructed so Bush could deny he was telling the people that when he was forced to admitt Sadam had nothing to do with 911
Sadam would crush these actors in the past to retain his power
There was vast oil money to make
So they took Sadam out of the equation
The sociopathic tactics at abu garib prison created groups like isis
They needed the right intel to keep the war going in the direction they wanted
So torture became patriotic to republicans even though all the experts said it created trash results
More sociopathy injected into the party loyal every damn day
Until we have what we have now
A Republican Party that has no facts or ideas left to offer
Just one big March to causing pain to anyone who doesn’t want to join their hate parade
It’s institutionalized scociopathy
That is my point
