    And do you think all tyrants or a great number of them are genetically psychopaths?

    I do not think that’s the case. A psychopath is characterized by lack of feelings towards people, all people. Many tyrants do love people, and many of their actions are driven because they think their violence is protecting these people. Other may just be because extremist ideologies. But I think few do it because they are just psychopaths.
