A lack of empathy for others is a mesh of something undeveloped that isn’t processed by the disruptor, who assumes their thoughts are the same reality for everyone. Aggression and defence mechanisms lack of coping mechanisms. Attitude, approach, a different kind of processing. A bias towards the self, like a child before self-awareness.
The opposite is an Empath and an Educated Emapath and a high level of self-awareness. There is such a thing as a Dark Empath that should be avoided.
