Sheep’s Clothing: Understanding and Dealing with Manipulative People<\/em>, Logan offre une analyse de la situation actuelle de la pathologie du comportement (de la psychologie) \u00e0 Washington et aux USA. (L’exercice pourrait s’\u00e9tendre au monde entier, globalis\u00e9 et am\u00e9ricanis\u00e9, mais il est essentiellement r\u00e9v\u00e9lateur pour les USA.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tIl nous semble que la premi\u00e8re partie de la r\u00e9flexion est la plus int\u00e9ressante, qui concerne essentiellement des remarques sp\u00e9cifiques sur le comportement et la psychologie, hors des r\u00e9f\u00e9rences politiques sp\u00e9cifiques. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00bbIn reading a number of books on the destructive manipulative behavior of people with personality disorders I became increasingly struck by how the behavior of our politicians and our nation, especially with respect to foreign policy, was so precisely described.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThe lesson from this study is not just sobering, but taken alongside the invincible tide of history the collapse of every empire the prognosis for our nation is bleak.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThe most important book for me was titled In Sheep’s Clothing: Understanding and Dealing with Manipulative People by Dr. George Simon. The title and tactics identified within it accurately describes not only our national leaders, but our national character. Our nation has not just one, but multiple destructive personality disorders.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbI do not mean this in the metaphorical sense, but in the direct clinical sense. Dr. Simon indicates that in a repressive Victorian society individual citizens suffer more neurotic kinds of disorders because they have natural human sexual desires that are relentlessly suppressed and vilified, resulting in anguish over reconciling natural human urges with extreme social sanctions against them.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbIn more recent decades, with the anything goes revolution in the 1960′s and onward, the kinds of personality disorders in his clinical work came to be more dominated by the opposite end of the spectrum, known as character disorders. Neurotic disorders are from too much conscientiousness. Character disorders are from not enough conscientiousness.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbCharacter disorders are destructively aggressive. The most interesting to me is a type called covert agression where underhanded, deceitful tactics are used to serve highly narcissistic and flatly evil objectives. Covert aggressors use innocent cover to give plausible deniability to base motives of power, greed, and even sadism. The foreign policy of our nation is exactly so described aggressive wars cloaked in \u00ab\u00a0humanitarian\u00a0\u00bb garb.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbIf you look at the tactics for covert manipulation, they describe the tactics of our national leaders in both parties perfectly:<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbLying, denial, selective attention\/inattention, rationalization, minimization, diversion, evasion, guilt-tripping, shaming, playing the victim, vilifying the victim, playing the servant role, seduction, project the blame, feigning innocence, playing dumb, brandishing anger<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThere are almost no national politicians that base their positions on an over-arching set of principles maintained consistently across the issues. An example would be Ron Paul. I can’t think of any others. In general they are lying, hypocritical, deceitful cowards cloaking their manipulative actions in sheep’s clothing<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\n
