Sociopaths are not in control of society. Sociopath is Latin for "someone with a social illness". Basically it means people with autism, schizophrenia, ASPD and the like. Disorders that make it hard to fit in and follow the rules and get basic respect from others. It doesn't actually refer to a specific diagnosis because it's not a medical term. It's arguable that it was ever an English term.
