For me, I struggle particularly with male psychopath characters. I think this comes from being hurt a lot as a child by my father, so the idea of a man with unlimited power to do whatever evil pleases him is scary to me. I find if a show or videogame or film has a psychopath-type character, i can get overly obsessed with them, and constantly think about them too much, and then feel quite embarrassed within myself that I let them take up so much headspace.

I find that the whole 'psychopaths are cool' trend is bad, it's not as prominent in media as it was like 5 years ago, but I still find the 'edgy, witty, sorta relatable psychopath' really annoying and pretty triggering. I struggle with the idea of evil and sadism being presented as cool and inviting. Anyone relate to this?
