Doesn't mean what it means both to actual clinicians, because psychopathy is a diagnostician, or like what normal people mean. To rationalists, a lot of them think psychopathy is a state you can put yourself into in order to maximize your performance in certain situations. Right.

These are the people who led societies in the toughest times. You need to optimize and engage in some of those behaviors if you want to win in these situations. Based on all of this, Ziz brings up what rationalists call the Gervais principle. Now, this started as a tongue-in-cheek joke describing a rule of office dynamics based on the TV show The Office.

When you said it, I was like, there's no way. Yes, it's Ricky Gervais, yes. And the idea is that in office environments, psychos always rise to the top. This is supposed to be like a negative observation. Like the person who wrote this initially is like, yeah, this is how offices work. And it's like why they're bad.

And these psychopaths put bad, like dumb and incompetent people in positions below them. It's trying to kind of work out why in which offices are often dysfunctional. Right.
