Yes, and shallow affect is one of the major characteristics of psychopathy.
If there are so many manipulative, unempathetic, callous adrenaline junkies with a penchant for violence and a distaste of authority, what distinguishes them from psychopaths? How do you know someone is a psychopath?

Don’t know. Don’t really care to know if they are psychopaths or not. I am not into diagnosing people. What difference does it make? Sure there is quite a number of manipulative or callous people out there as well as adrenaline junkies. I don’t get hung up on diagnosis. I look at people’s behavior and if it suits me. If it does, then it’s all good and I’ll continue spending time with them and if not, I am moving on.
