I do not think you intend to defend sociopaths. But the definition of a sociopath is someone who fails to internalize a system of values, and is indifferent to the effects of his behavior on society.

So what's that "but" doing there? I know what a sociopath is. I know what "feral" is, too. I have extensive experience trying to socialize feral cats. There is nothing even remotely sociopathic in what I describe. There are just a different approach and a slightly different bottom line in terms of standards and a slightly different society.

(I wonder why the SI spell checker doesn't like "sociopath.")
