That's very apt. You can read everything about DT by the fact that he projects on others all he doesn't like in himself. He even projects the shame so he becomes shameless!

Yes! so deeply shamed in their core ego or so utterly incapable of mitigating shame they rage and violate others if they have the means to do so. This is 💯 why they should never have the means. “Shame has been proposed as crucial emotions to understand psychopathy. It has been argued that people, who often experience shame feelings during their childhood, may develop adaptive strategies to cope with them, which lead to maladaptive strategies to regulate shame feelings in adulthood. These maladaptive strategies may explain the increased likelihood for these individuals to violence when feeling ashamed.”
