A sociapath isnt able to feel the emotions like others. He might look at a sad person and see he is sad, but he cant connect to it on an emotional leve.
He doesnt have to be a bad person. But he is unable to stay on the same path in life for a long time because the emotions that guide the rest of us isnt there.
A sociopath is most certainly a bad person as they are incapable of feeling empathy, guilt or remorse. Ripping off a senior of their life savings or killing someone would cause them as much stress as it causes me or you to turn on the TV.
