A form of govt. interesting to ponerologists is one they have called #pathocracy, in which individuals with personality disorders (esp. psychopathy) occupy positions of power & influence. The result is a totalitarian system characterized by a government turned against its own ppl
A pathocracy may emerge when a society is insufficiently guarded against the typical and inevitable minority of such abnormal pathology, which Łobaczewski asserts is caused by biology or genetics.
He argues that in such cases these individuals infiltrate an institution or state, prevailing moral values are perverted into their opposite, and a coded language like Orwell's doublethink circulates into the mainstream,
using paralogic and paramoralism in place of genuine logic and morality.
There are various identifiable stages of pathocracy described by Łobaczewski. Ultimately, each pathocracy is foredoomed because the root of healthy social morality, according to Łobaczewski, is contained in the congenital instinctive infrastructure in the vast maj. of the pop.
While some in the normal population are more susceptible to pathocratic influence, and become its lackeys, the majority instinctively resist.
