Goodreads Doesn't Have It, Data Migration: Be Fierce, Stop Harassment
crime [edit] I wish I had read this before moving to Washington State. When a woman was harassed and refused to sign a contract basically saying they would say she resigned if she didn't sign, they escorted her off the property with police just because she wouldn't sign. That's the picture of coercive control. She asked the police to get evidence that they removed her for not signing the paper. Definitely saw things like that here in Washington. They are the picture of the worst nightmares described in this book. I wish I had read it before I had moved here. She tried to get paperwork from the police that they escorted her off for not signing a contract and trying to move forward with an anti-harassment action. These people really are psychopaths and psychopaths really are more like animals. They haven't learned a thing from the exact same stimulus repeatedly. That's a real intelligence issue.
This book is great because it says no to the "if you can't beat em, join em" or "they tried" positions. It says you have to fight it. It is in agreement with the other book that says you have to expect them to get really pathetic before it's extinct. They are more like animals than not as the psychopath brain does not have the prefrontal cortex of a normal homo sapien. They don't learn from the same stimulus, they can't control themselves, and they hit the same lever that worked once again and again, up to 40, 50, 60 times before they learn it doesn't work anymore. Like I said a commenter who kept commenting when they were getting scripted with the same script was just like that rat. Hitting the lever 40, 50, 60 times hoping the next comment would be different until there was an extinction burst. Unbelievably disabled failure to learn. These rats have the smallest brains and it's embarrassing to see humans acting like that instead of taking intelligent action, reflecting and researching. Almost complete lack of metacognition
