I'd like to think his point is the sociological balance is past the
tipping point, 'crossed the rubicon' so to speak, where it's no longer
possible to repair the society to some globally normal state, or get the
sociopaths out of power, if one thinks a capitalist society can be free
of psychopaths and sociopaths in the first place.

Ps. I'm not anal about sources. ANYONE can feel free to note and analyse
the intrinsic problems of society and have their own solutions which I
don't have to accept.

In other words, punch holes in his premise, not his politics.
