The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein: the psychopath in 10 easy points

I have a person to thank for two things. A buddy, Blair, pushed me 30 years ago to ownership of my first dog, himself being a champion in Dog Field Trials. Since then, my life has been filled with dogs and cats. I've learned from pets the shortness of life as they live out their 12 to 14 years. And, I've learned how change occurs in a slow way and takes monumental effort on the pet owner: feral cat Frank has just completed his first month of not biting, being kind to 2 other cats, and genuine cuddling up with me right now on this sofa on this chilly day! I never thought it could happen. It was not a moving to some wonderful tricks, it was just moving to kindness, and that took incredible patience and one water spray bottle. Never, as I learned, with many Cocker Spaniels, do they learn truly from any punishment: Cockers get you you back by just peeing on the carpet, and cats get you back a few hours or day later. But, it takes super human commitment to spending time with them. It's the same with children: for every correction you make, there must be 9 of 10 interventions a loving and encouraging one. All pets have responded to the strongest of encouragements: stopping and talking to them. And, I've learned with them, even with a busy life: Love can be gauged with the quality of time spent. When spending time with them if they're interacting, the bills or laptop goes to the side. Do you do this with those you love? I hope so.  Remember, quality time with no distractions equals Love. Distracted time where you are doing something else is equal to no time.

Blair turned me on to some dark cinema of many types. Years ago, I'd avoid something bloody, dark, gothic, or alt in cinema. Still, when I know an incredible bloody scene in a movie is coming up, I'll cover my eyes if it seems real. But, most times, I see the blood as either a Hollywood goo, or a "metaphor", symbolic of something. And, because of what myth in movies has to share with us, this gore is part of the telling of human mythic stories we need to know and be familiar with. These mythic stories tell of journeys of humans, in fact, most humans. They include quests, tests of skill, and dangers. Many dark mythic stories have tales of warning. "Our mythic stories we need to know are hidden in the West's Movies", Joseph Campbell, great mythologist.

Now, there are twists and remakes of stories. Many fairy tales and old historical tales of monsters, demons, and quests have many version. Interestingly, these tales though retold, are present in all cultures of all times in the world, though they are very very hidden in modern Western Culture......veiled in movies, video games, and the fewer books being read.

One type of remake sets itself apart from the various versions of Little Red Riding Hood or Rapunzel, stories of our own inner soul. And, one type is a variance from the darkness found in the gothic story, the Grimm tale, the bloodied search for the Holy Grail, or Homer's Harsh Quest. And, this remake again sets itself apart from those movies I study for the human theme and lesson or warning in life:

• horror movies
• zombie 
• Apocalypse movies

like

• 2012, a story of world disaster from warming of the oceans
• World War Z: a story of global disease, and though the disease reanimates the dead, the disease seems a possibility in our global travel times
• The Wall: dark enemies attack the China Wall, forcing an alliance of a Western Hero and the Chinese arts of fighting and explosives
• Zombie Apocalypse: there are those undead who are out to eat you, a metaphor of the undead takers around you and even the psychopaths described in this blog.....brains....flesh.....you.

These dark movies are called the "mythological warnings"
don't go there it's dangerous, or be fully prepared
be aware things could change fast, look out for harm
and, most thematic of all: there are people who will take, rip off, use, kill, you just like any Vampire movie or TV show, by way of conning.......if you don't know cons, what critical thinking is, and what propaganda is: you'll be eaten like any person in the South Promised a Job by Donald Trump, and now you're starving!!!

Be Warned!

So, what is this anti-remake or version of the mythic warning of the undead, the dark, and dangers? What can be counter to that mythic taker of mythologies worldwide?  What can be some variance from:

• the witch
• the eating zombie undead
• undead of all sorts
• conning shapeshifters of Vampires and Werewolf mythology
• giant one eyed monsters and tiny seemingly innocuous sprites, dwarfs, peskies, pixies, Pans that debauch you, and even the Tooth Fairy that unbeknownst to modern parents is a pixie creature that eats your teeth at night
• evil clowns, the undead with the red noses (the red nose representing the frostbitten and rotting face of that Northern freezing-you creature)
• Bogey Me, creatures of the dark and unknown places
• and so on

(Fill in this list with your favorite dark characters, villains, and even alt gothic creatures you may avoid thinking about or avoid a movie that includes, and you have a list of pan-cultural world warning MYTHS, perhaps the worst of all being the conning glamoring fooling hypnotizing types that are right in your midst: the vampire next door or in public office!

This variation, then is the Parody. It is a twist on the Mythic Villain. For some, it may lessen the import of the story. For others, it's a fun way to learn about them.  And, fun is good!  Children often make up stories or songs about the villains, and this is for them an intro to learning about danger when other dark images might be too frightening for the emergent minds and brains.

Parody is also a way to "not fight the villain with the villain's fire".  That is, if you try to use the witch's methods, or Donald Trump's methods that are dark. you WIll be eventually caught by them.
Parody offers a taunt or poke from you to the villain. It employs an opposite way to confront.

One such movie is Mel Brooks' "Young Doctor Frankenstein. In this movie is a clear presentation of the psychopath in a humorous approach. The humorous approach is to make the characteristic of the villain extreme. That is, we turn up the volume on a characteristic by 20 or 100%, just like the story of confronting the Bogart in the Harry Potter Movies: face what is fearful like your school teacher, then put a Tutu on Her in your mind.




The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein


So, what is a psychopath? They are everywhere, and here are examples from the parody movie Young Dr. Frankenstein:

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
1. Is self-focused: nothing else exists outside of this

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
2.  Is intent on one thing, focused on only the self-serving projects
It may seem like it serves the greater good: don't be fooled

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
3. is manic like in that intent. Has brilliance in many areas of life. Let's nothing get in way. Psychopaths have been creators of great war victories and genocides, taking riches, slaves, and land. Manic like means: a brilliant idea that has gone off into left field, is now bizarre, and is driven with endless energy and mind resources

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
4. We sometimes pick up that there is an Evil Intent of all of it, unless the psychopath is also a master at Propaganda, White Washing the Truth, Alliance Building, and the Con

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
5.  Has no compassion for the humanity or humans around, but has an intent of creating Slaves. Here' the reanimation of the dead corpse is very metaphoric: their aids, servants, and slaves may have been murdered emotionally by the Dr., then reanimated. And, a corpse to experiment on is more valuable than a real person. "I'll make a child in my own image and create a double that keeps my legacy going on" is the bizarre story. Most psychopaths have rejected their own children for the selection of an oddball progenitor, and this has often been the  basis in history for children killing or imprisoning their own crazy father: kill or be killed by Dad, imprison or get no inheritance.

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
6.  HE Has:

• submissive helpers who worship and ego stroke Dr. Frankenstein
• door keepers that keep people out using some method of intimidation, threat, or humiliation

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
7. people are just products, resources, and often disposable: corpses to be used, brains to be pickled for future uses

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
8.  There may be a "Mrs. Young Frankenstein" in the wings, hidden. Her biggest failing is likely she's not THE BLOND. She is kept, but kept hidden.

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
9. Blonds are admired at all times. Some, are paid for their services, whether as worshipful servants or "MALE's PAID COMPANIONS". Never would "MALE PAID COMPANIONS" known to the psychopath be called a street name: hooker, call girl, or prostitute. These paid Blonds come and go, as the psychopaths needs new stimulation every few weeks!

The psychopath's libido is odd: a teenage view of romance and of one's prowess. See the 13 books on psychopaths for more on libido and prowess issues.

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
10. the live in wealthy secreted castles, and unless you're one of these, you're not invited:
a blond
a worshipping servant
a corpse

The Mythology of Young Dr. Frankenstein
10. If the body reanimates, it still has the goal of the Evil Dr: get you, eat you, create fear, you're food.

If it feels like Crazytown, it is Crazytown

There is a feeling that can't be greatly described. Sure, there is sadness, joy, despair, and all the other colors and moods of life.

But, crazy, feeling crazy is certainly an anomaly.

Gaslighters like to call others crazy. Why? Because it takes the vulnerable into that strange netherworld notion of AM I CRAZY.  "Am I crazy" heads after a few minutes, times, or days into really feeling Crazy.

Who then are the vulnerable? About 80% of the population have senses of self-checking, consciousness of themselves and surroundings, the feelings of others, and compassion and sympathy for:

1. their own pain: we know we hurt, have needs, suffer, care for others, desire, and more
2. others, their pain and plight  (all the way from crying or being suicidal as one person, to the plights of the disenfranchises, traumatized, wounded, and victims of rape / bullying / genocide......etc, etc. )
3. animals, their pain, plight, vulnerabilities and weaknesses (we have info on the role of "animal husbandry" the care of "domesticated animals we care for and milk, eat eggs, may eat meat, and have as pets, a role we developed in them called animal domestication; this process took 100,000 years)
4. pets of all types from guppies to pet ponies and donkeys
5. Mother Nature: as in the movie Avatar, we see, have concern for, and see our role in protecting nature, the oceans, the animals going extinct, and the bacteria and fungus of the Rain Forest, and those 15 world bird species that went extinct listed this last week, and MORE. We see Mother Nature as something all around us, and both near and even something so far or remote we can't see it nor as of yet understand it (like the giant icebergs that split off the Arctic and Antarctica just this last week in a plant fit of global warming anger). 

20% do not have this compassion, empathy, and concern.

It may be hard to accept this, because they say they do.

Let's break this down a bit further, that 20% into two groups of 10% that do not have that function of compassion, empathy, and sympathy for others, but have a narrow focus of self-serving. This, though, is not the Self Compassion of point #1 above. This is self-serving, and ego greed. This is the seeking of goods, wealth, and luxuries at the very risk of other's welfare.  Why is this different in the 80% and the 20%?  Here's why:

Greed and self serving, with it's schemes and plans is that regressed childhood ego effort, that comes from one region of the brain.  It's a function of a section of the brain, and is also part of the personality.

Compassion is in another part of the brain.

In the 20%,

10% and 10% make up the giant worldwide and nextdoor population of Dangerous Narcissists and Next Door Psychopaths. See massive articles and books on this at:

Dangerous Psychopaths and Narcissists

Group A: half of those with no sense of compassion are the "brain wounded" primarily from the trauma of Post Stress Trauma Disorder, and other disorders that shut this section of the brain down and allow the anger portion of the brain to take over.  War veterans, abuse and rape victims, and trauma  victims of all types are in this category. Those suffering from continual poverty, crime, neglect, and even ongoing political corruption as in many countries may fit in here. This disorder of the brain and personality is treatable, though most who have it don't see a need or don't pursue help.

If you have a person who appears to be from this Group A, and they actively seek some help, amelioration, or treatment, of change, possibly they were an extremely mild Group A person, or were really a part of the wounded of the 80% of those with compassion and awareness, but just look worse than they appeared.

Many war veterans who have acted out in gun violence, severe spousal abuse, and manic acts are these PTSD victims, and most have a denial of their problem because they area of the brain that gives you awareness of yourself is broken....or possibly gone for the rest of your life.  Many alcoholic parents, both moms and dads, fit this group and have both the brain damage of loss of compassion and then severely abuse or neglect children. Many abused or neglected or abused as children fit this category, and as adults have a lost "compassion" function.

articles on Sandy Hook and Las Vegas killers

Group B:

These are the 10% of our population in your neighborhood and the world that are dangerous Narcissists and Psychopaths. They are mini Hannibal Lecters, with no compassion,

THOUGH THEY SAY THEY HAVE COMPASSION, CARE, EMPATHY, AND SYMPATHY.

This is the scam, the con, the daily ruse.

These persons are missing the full compassion brain function, and are ruled by the greed and anger parts of the brain and personality.

Daily, they are here to tell you You're Crazy.

And, when they say that, you feel crazy. How does one sort out Crazy? Some days, I've only begun to figure this out, though I am a clinical therapist of 35 years and author of 13 books on Narcissists and Psychopaths

It feels crazy. It opens up that anomalous feeling we just can't peg, put our finger on, sort out, make sense of:


Crazy:

insane
kooky
mad
nuts
nutty
silly
wacky
ape
berserk
cuckoo
looney
psycho
screwy
batty
bonkers
cracked
crazed
daft
delirious
demented
deranged
dingy
dippy
erratic
flaky
flipped
flipped out
freaked out
fruity
idiotic
mad as a March hare
maniacal
mental
nutty as fruitcake
of unsound mind
out of one's mind
out of one's tree
out to lunch
round the bend
schizo
screw loose
screwy
touched
unbalanced
unglued
unhinged
unzipped

It is the mental state of "lost in space", "in a nether world", in a "bizarre and confused place".

We feel like the Looney Toons cartoons with crazy ducks running all over, or a Roadrunner running into a cave opening painted on a mountain but getting through that painted opening as if it was real!

Other examples flood from the 20% that tells the 80% that they're crazy.

Can you see this barrage of information from CrazyTown?

What is it in your life?

Here are examples from two CrazyTowns:


The stories are many, but here are just two from today:

1. a new report states that 16,000 Catholic Priests have sexually abused children since World War 11, and reporting has been done only for a few select countries, including North Amercia, Peru, and a few European countries. Reporting has just started in the Philippines where 1,000 priests have been identified as sexual abusers. These abusers each have sexually abuses up to 100 children each.  Will an estimate of all Catholic Priest abuses include over 100,000 priests, and millions of abused children? That is likely.

Most countries do not have the full resources or current motivation due to other national crises to pursue investigations. Some, like Brazil, are caught up with economic and crimes of murder floods:

Catholic Priest pedophiles escape to hiding in Brazil

https://www.pri.org/stories/2015-09-17/south-america-has-become-safe-haven-catholic-church-s-alleged-child-molesters



How could this occur? Priest Pedophiles are part of
a. the largest group of 10% uncompassionate and greed self-seeking Psychopaths
b. the Catholic Church created a safe haven for this "world's largest group of psychopaths" by moving to priest celibacy: no marriage and no sex made the "club house". The church has a long history of periods of marriage, celibacy, versus allowing sex and marriage.
c. these are not gays, these are sexual predators of both boys and girls. Pedophilia is a sign of mental Psychopathy: lack of compassion, and greed taking

How can the Catholic Church close this club?
This will not stop the club from "meeting secretly" and continuing:
rules
laws
investigation and punishment (which must be done, but will not stop completely or solve the deepest issue)
congresses and conferences of the Church
declarations, credos
training, interventions
safety of children regulations (though that too must be done)
"repair centers for pedophiles": science has proven there is no repair for these psychopaths in their life: once released they abuse a child within hours. These repair centers become secondary clubhouses.

The solution is:
1. the church must allow priest marriage
2. the church must investigate why Catholics have so much "clandestine sex" of all types, and seek a solution that is more healthy and less "rules and sin oriented".  A new workable health view of sex and sexuality everybody gets permission now to "mess around". But, how can it be that Italians and Brazilian Catholics, two of the most important Catholic Countries, have double standards toward sex:
Priest Pedophiles decry and cast out gays
Men have a double standard of sex: they have one view Sundays during mass, then before Sunday dinner can visit a mistress or prostitute.  (as both a traveler to Catholic countries, and a therapist, I can tell you stories of this that are made only for the most ripe of soap operas or movies).
3. pedophiles are no percentage wise % more greatly gays, but the entire club of all persons must be closed, and that means allowing and recognizing gay marriage.  The whole "club house" of psychopathic pedophiles needs closed.
4. all need made aware of what psychopathy is

If you don't know, find out at:
Political, Religious, and Next Door Pirates and Psychopaths
and, pass that info on via a link or share with your Social Media. Others need to know, too!

My opinion: I think the Pope and most Catholic clergy have good intentions and are a part of that 80%. But, they face, if opposing church policies, of being cast out. Still, the Catholic Church has this history of rebels taking a stand against harmful and inhumane church policies, and many of them now are part of the group of 350 or so official Catholic Saints, including St. Francis the original. They felt taking a stand for others was more important than conservative doctrine. 

The second story is the continual barrage from psychopathic politicians, especially the Psychopath Poster Child: Donald Trump:

Trump calls book all lies

today, Trump denies deaths in Puerto Rico

the White House has a new name: Crazy Town

And, as a bonus. How does Trump demonstrate compassion to his wife and son, Baron? In fact, have you seen Baron included in any even or even golf trip by Donald the last few months? What "normal" things that a parent does are missing here with Baron?
