Sociopath Community

I discussed nihilism with empaths and they all seem to find it unintuitive or unpleasant. In my opinion you need a predisposition that allows you to discard all values without negative emotional reaction. Indulging in nihilism will probably amplify your traits because it's a good foundation for worldviews that are in line with sociopathic behavior.

If you want to break out of this way of thinking you could try and focus on yourself. No matter if there are universal values or not, you'll never get rid of your perception, your emotions (even if they are limited), your sense for aesthetics and your needs. You can use them to create a new system of values.

I'm looking for guidance from those who may understand, or offer critique of thoughts I've been having about nihilism, power and sociopathic traits.
Can recognising and embracing the lack of any true meaning in reality unlock a sociopathic outlook? Morals become nonsense. If social interaction is meaningless, lies can roll off the tongue, insecurities dissipate. You can entangle the less perceptive in a meaningless reality you have designed for your own purposes. Is developing sociopathic traits in this manner to pursue power an impossible or otherwise unwise endeavour? 

in what ways are they completely different? 

i have had similar experiences discussing nihilism with empaths. Their fear overrides and shuts down any logical consideration. I may have that predisposition, other than an emptiness that seems similar to what many sociopaths describe. 

Whether I want to break out of this way of thinking or not depends on its necessity in building power? If it isn't, then it would seem preferable to attempt finding transient meanings, although am I doomed to fail as I can't unknow what I now know? 

you listed psychopathic behavior not sociopathic they are completely different

sociopaths are just the old name for the 75% of the ASPD that doesn't suit the psychopathy checklist

Forget everything what cheesemaster says. He's an autistic troll.

I consider nihilism a necessary step in finding your own system of values. By breaking out of it i mean to overcome the trap of dismissing everything because one can't see an universal sense behind it.

You are not doomed. The next step is to realize that all you see is subjective. Even if there's an objective reality you'll never see it the way it is and thus all further attempts to find objective values are fruitless. Learn to know yourself better and find values that fit to your own subjective reality because that's the one you live in. You can also try and change that reality by working on your personal growth. Try to become happier, more balanced or whatever.

"Learn to know yourself better and find values that fit to your own subjective reality because that's the one you live in."

That's the hard part. Once everything is seen as subjective everything risks seeming meaningless. It's that portion that leads some to become depressed in a state of existential confusion.

Having to craft your own sense of meaning, of worth, that's not easy when the evidence around you can contradict those views.

I see. what are your views on the possibility of developing a psychopathic  mindset, then?
