That criterion fails Karl Popper’s principle of scientific falsifiability. Pick some criteria for which you could design an experiment that clearly and persuasively differentiates its presence from its absence.
I don’t agree with the use of the word “sociopathic”. It’s Greek for “socially ill” and has historically been associated with pseudoscientific stereotypes applied with people with antisocial personality disorder. Mental disorders are not bourgeois, they are proletarian. They are associated with hardship and trauma, not privilege.
Why would I read books by authors willing to use ableist slurs? Martha Stout and Paul Babiak sound like terrible people I want to hear nothing from. I’m already sure their opinions on mental disorders are worthless pseudoscientific garbage.

Metacognition. It’s just metacognition. Not vague in the slightest. You can argue that it isn’t a good criterion, but it’s a very clear one.

comparing slaves to animals is exactly what slavers do
We are all animals, and we are comparable
yep. you can compare an apple to an orange.
So according to you slaves are animals, neat
worst bad faith argument ive seen in a while, thanks for not trying
That’s what they said.
I think it’s a bad faith arguement to equate human enslavement to cattle production. Yet here we are
It is though, just because you think being a non-human animal is bad doesn’t make you less of an animal.
“Well technically” is not a convincing or relevant arguement. Bugs are animals too. They don’t get human rights
Why not?
It is cruel to treat other life cruelly.
In the eyes of slavers, slaves would be seen as animals and treated as such. Meat farmers treat animals poorly, too.
I don’t understand the point you are trying to make.
what a coincidence neither do they
