In my experience total losers can be even worse sociopaths than normies. A loser is very close to the absolute bottom rung of society, but usually desperately wants to stay a little above this bottom rung (as Jordan Peterson wrote, all social animals have an extremely strong instinct for pecking order that directly affects, through an old brain pathway, serotonin production). That often turns them into anxious, bitter, angry assholes with a crab bucket mentality. They know they can slip very easily to the "untouchable" level, so they try to create systems preventing it. That can be trying to develop a "loser community" where anyone who tries to leave is seen as a traitor, looking down on other races (white nationalism) and "degeneracy" (religious fundamentalism), or attacking proven ways to improve yourself (nofap, physical exercise).
By recognizing this phenomenon with your rational neocortex, you can mitigate it.
