Along the same lines of those same qualities that make for a successful CEO are those in a sociopath.
Did you know you are my go-to guy when it comes to information about sociopathic behavior? No snark or put-down intended...you just know a lot. I read "The Sociopath Next Door" a few years back based on your recommendation.

I think of a line from King of the Hill. Dale: "Boy, you're really up on your cannibalism, John Redcorn!"

Yeah, that's a haunting one in the context of the traits we're supposed to admire in business figures.

Add George Takei and Richard Dreyfus to the list of accused, and Anthony Edwards as victim. Christ, is everyone in the entertainment business either predator or prey? Congrats to the conservative moralists, you were right about it being a total cesspool. Mind you, your side is filled with just as many monsters, so that kinda limits your ability to gloat. X(

The news of his behavior is a few years old, but only recently acknowledged by himself. I was interested enough early on to do some research at the time, but my head didn't explode or anything. As Doc said, the only trustworthy men at this point might be those that are scared of women.

I disagree with the last bit. Those are the weird assholes who go "red pill" and get involved in men's rights rape culture. Eventually, their fear and self-loathing will give way to entitlement and a self-loathing of active harassment and assault.

I think he meant the more charming and oddly lovable types that are just nervous wrecks because they respect women too much.

Well, I was being a bit tongue in cheek, making a joke about that seemingly any men who are able to be in the presence of women merit suspicion, leaving the loner weirdos as the safe ones. Nothing really serious about my comment.
