Political Ponerology is a book written by Polish psychiatrist Andrzej Łobaczewski, who studied the psychological and social factors that lead to the rise of evil and tyranny in human history. The book is based on his personal experiences and research under the oppressive regimes of Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia.

The main concept of the book is ponerology, which means the study of evil. Łobaczewski argues that evil is not a metaphysical or moral phenomenon, but a scientific and biological one. He claims that there are certain individuals who are born with genetic or acquired defects that make them incapable of empathy, conscience, or remorse. These individuals are called psychopaths or sociopaths, and they have a parasitic and predatory nature that allows them to manipulate, exploit, and destroy others for their own benefit.

Łobaczewski also explains how psychopaths can infiltrate and influence various social groups and institutions, such as political parties, religions, media, and corporations. He describes how they can use their charm, charisma, and cunning to deceive and seduce normal people into following their agenda. He also shows how they can create a system of pathocracy, which means a government or society ruled by psychopaths. In a pathocracy, normal people are oppressed, brainwashed, or eliminated, while psychopaths enjoy power, wealth, and privilege.

Łobaczewski warns that pathocracy is a recurrent and cyclical phenomenon in human history, and that it can only be prevented by increasing the awareness and knowledge of normal people about the nature and danger of psychopathy. He also suggests that normal people should develop their moral and psychological immunity against the influence of psychopaths, and that they should resist and oppose their tyranny with courage and solidarity.

Political Ponerology is a book that offers a unique and profound perspective on the causes and consequences of evil in human society. It is not an easy or pleasant read, but it is an important and enlightening one. It challenges us to question our assumptions and beliefs about ourselves and others, and to confront the reality of psychopathy in our world. It also inspires us to cultivate our humanity and morality, and to defend our dignity and freedom against the forces of evil.

Foundation is one of those where if you've read the books , the adaptations are a pale imitation. I haven't bothered watching season 2. Some of the sfx were ok but the pacing was too slow and convoluted.

yep WOT is basically sacrilege. LOTR Prequel would be close runner up. But actuallt i'm most pissed off with Foundation - simply because it's just not enjotyable.

Going off on a tangent - if you read Discworld, the best adaptation so far was the recent Amazing Maurice.
