Summary: There are a number of signs, actions and statements that expose a lack of empathy for others. The important action is to be educated very quickly; they will not be able to see why they should make any changes.

The behaviour will affect their life; it will affect others more so. They will blame their victims and blame-shift onto others due to the inability to process accountability.

There are different types of empathy; study how some think of themselves only and not others, how their stories have bias and without other people present, gaslighting, triangulation, smear and gossip.

If you never think you can be wrong, you will never be right. Lacks vulnerability and lacks long-term thinking.

Narcissism, sociopathy, psychopathy, childhood, lack of curiosity, can't go deep, avoidance, low emotional intelligence, lack of self-awareness. Speak about others when they are not in the room; they do it about everyone.

Others are overly sensitive or overreacting to keep things on their level to stop triggers and fear of exposure.
