The Smear Campaign—Trademark of a Sociopath

Sociopath a.k.a. Psychopath

When you are under libelous attack by a person who has deceived and defrauded you, there is a possibility that the person is a sociopath. Sociopaths have no heart, no conscience, and no remorse.

 

They will lie, cheat, and steal from you, then convincingly tell everyone that you are doing those things, and that everything is your fault.

Gossip & Divide

How do they get away with it?

Psychopaths lie.

Psychopaths’ lack of conscience allows them to lie without inhibitions or remorse; they don’t see the value of telling the truth unless it helps get them what they want.

Most are fooled.

Psychopaths don’t just tell “white lies.” They tell harmful lies to hurt others and to disguise their malicious actions and evil ambitions. A psychopath who is deprived of his mask of sanity lacks the means to fool and use others.

Smear Campaign Tactics

Discredit & isolate the victim
Play the victim and/or hero
Lie-exaggerate-manipulate
Manufacture fear/anger
Label the victim inferior
Hurt the victim for spite

Most abusers simply want what they want and will not be denied without unleashing a torrent of phony martyrdom and vicious slander all about you and how you are an abuser.

The smear campaigner needs to make their audience think they are a perfectly innocent person who was shockingly blindsided by your supposed evil, unreasonability, overemotionality or mental instability. Smear campaigners’ goals are to create mistrust of you, fear of you, and condemnation of you.

…they may admit that they have done something very minor, but that your response to it is outrageously unreasonable (or completely incompetent).

Lies of the smear campaigner include statements and insinuations that you are mentally ill, incompetent, untrustworthy, irrational, or unreasonable. The smear campaigner does this so that if your legitimate upset shows, the observer will attribute it to irrationality, ill intent, or instability, and not to a normal reaction to mistreatment.

Why is it so hard to hold abusive people accountable for their actions?

Because they are either in
denial, or they simply deny.

Abusers regularly deny the abuse ever took place, rationalize their abusive behaviors, or use tactics to cover themselves—and each other.

Sociopaths are skilled deniers. Where the rest of us would stutter or blush, they can lie with a convincing confidence. They pose as authorities and, to discourage questions, they act “offended” if their audience shows doubt. An arrogant manner indicates a lifetime of “successful” manipulative control tactics and contempt for other people, who they regard as inferior.
