How To Beat A Determined Sociopath At Their Own Game [The Good Way]:
Don’t. The only way to win is not to fight. Run. Excise them from every possible connection with your life. Every. Possible. Connection. Including physical space. I’m not saying you need to move across town… I’m saying you need to move across the country. Or at least put a large state/region/province in between you. Excise them like the tumor that they are and make sure to get every little bit of connection removed. Permanently. Or they will metastasize and destroy more than you ever imagined you could lose. Your health. Your livelihood. Your sanity. Your family. Your freedom. Your hope. All can be taken away from you. Nothing is forbidden to them. They’ve got no rules.

How To Beat A Determined Sociopath At Their Own Game [The Real Way]
"Evil doesn’t wear a mask. It boldly ‘hides’ in plain sight. Give it an inch, and it’ll take more than you ever imagined.”
How to beat a determined sociopath at their own game [the Real way]: …you have to become them. You have to break every rule you hold just. You have to dig deep and become dirtier than you’ve ever been. So dirty that you’ll never be clean again. You have to do what they do instantly (understand people) as well as they do, but BETTER. You have to play your Trump card, just after they play theirs. You have to understand them, better than they understand themselves. You have to plan for any contingency. And hit them -harder than any decent person would ever hit anyone. And then hit ’em when they’re down. You need to hit them so hard that their reprisal need not be feared [paraphrasing Machiavelli’s ‘The Prince’]. You need to go for the unforgivable. You need to break your one rule. This is Von Clausewitz shit: total fucking war.
You have to go nuclear at the first. You have to bomb Hiroshima. THEN Nagasaki. Just to prove a point.
If you don’t have what it takes to do all this [and most don’t], DON’T EVEN TRY. Because to try and fail will lead to your utter destruction, root and stem. If you’re going to take a shot at the king, don’t miss.
Because you won’t get a second shot.
