Not at all. Psychopaths have wrought tremendous changes to human history and consciousness. The Holocaust, the Stalin purges, Mao's Great Leap Forward, Pol Pot, the Inquisition, etc. The world will long reverberate to the impact of the psychopaths among us. I'll go so far as to say that human morality and ethics seem incapable of progressing without them. Nothing will make you appreciate compassion and empathy like running into someone who doesn't have any.
