But, in truth, he genuinely does not seem to understand. It does seem to involve pathology, as Dr Sohom Das said: a combination of narcissism and psychopathy.
My daughter who is studying psychology has this to say on the subject - Sociopaths are made from their environment, Psychopaths are born that way.
So we really can't blame Watchtower for the way James Lloyd Evans behaves. It is in his make up. The Narcissistic Personality Disorder however, has been made by the environment. He has never been shown how to show true empathy. His mother died when he was young, so she was not around to teach this, may she RIP.
From what I understand, his father was/is a douche Elder and therefore, JLE has learned this behaviour and it's stuck that way now as he is over the age of 25 and his brain is no longer capable to change something as deep as this.
Once you got NPD at 25, you've got it for life. Same for abuse survivors sadly, like myself with a diagnosis of PTSD, which cannot be cured, only managed - thanks Dad and Charlie Holt! - It's in the media guys so it can be said here. Which is why I said in previous comments, he literally cannot help himself. He's mentally ill. But do we cut someone slack for being mentally ill and behaving inappropriately? NO! For example, time and time again I have seen hunting teams, hunt down a guy/woman who have been caught speaking inappropriately to children (thankfully not real children, decoys, but the sicko believes they are children)
So many times I have heard the excuse from a person caught - "I'm Autistic" and as a mother of 2 children on the spectrum, that literally sickens me each and every time, because Autistic children can be taught right from wrong just as much as a neuro-typical can and indeed, dare I say it, a large number of Autistic people do not like to be touched so that argument falls flat on its face.
If someone is incapable of taking responsibility for their actions, that someone is dangerous to the public.
