If it means anything, in my opinion, we are observing a selection bias here: sociopaths and psychopaths feel the need to demonstrate the acceptable social behavior and, as additional safety measure, outrage over deviant behavior. Since they cannot tell either of these they end up mimicking each other and going ballistic over anything that differs from themselves.

If you take them seriously it's rather disgusting. However, I look at this as teenagers talking about sex (that they have not had yet), when everyone thinks he is the only virgin and is vigorously trying to hide this fact from his peers (who are doing exactly the same).

Can you be seriously offended by them? I cannot.
