parasociopath

A Parasociopath uses parasocial relationships to enable, justify, and lie about sociopathic behavior. Parasocial influence allows parasociopathic online "influencers" to manipulate, lie, break laws, act impulsively, and lack regard for their own safety or the safety of others in order to entertain, gaslight, harrass, and cyberbully others leveraging their "followers' affection" to deflect criticism and legitimize their behaviors.

Parasocial interaction is an exposure that garners interest in a persona and then becomes a parasocial relationship after repeated exposure to the media persona causes the media user to develop illusions of intimacy, friendship, and identification. Media personas have a significant amount of influence over media users informing the way that they perceive life, their behaviors, and their purchasing habits. (Horton, D.; Wohl, R. (1956). "Mass communication and para-social interaction: Observation on intimacy at a distance". Psychiatry. 19 (3): 215–229.)

Sociopathy is antisocial personality disorder, which causes individuals to lie, break laws, act impulsively, and lack regard for their own safety or the safety of others. (Healthline. (2021). "Sociopath". Healthline.com.)

Paras

Paras is a misunderstood soul for whom all personal and professional relationships start on the wrong foot. After a while, you realize the terrible misunderstanding and become wholly drawn to him for everything. You end up relying on him with your life. Interestingly, you will find that he says yes to anything you ask for, be it money, time, and even manual labor. When he was little, his mother made him take a vow to help anyone who comes seeking, no matter what.

He is a Paras, he will say yes to anything.
