I totally understand; I think many of us kinda choose to ignore/accept the cost of maintaining an empathetic perspective, simply because we are unwilling to accept the alternative.

But everyone walks their own path! In any case, I applaud your way of thinking.

One of the stupidest parts is labeling "woke", aka empathy, as a "mind virus". Empathy requires continual effort to maintain your commitment to the well-being of others, sometime that's more and now challenging these days.

But abandoning empathy? Giving yourself over to fear, greed, and hatred requires no effort or commitment, and the longer you maintain such a vile, poisonous state of mind, the more you become such in such a perspective.

But, as we know, projection projection projection 😝

This is, unfortunately, exactly what's happening. Due process has been suspended; they are gathering people up without even formally charging them with anything, let alone securing a conviction in court.

And, if anybody is stripped of such fundamental rights, then, effectively, everyone is. And I wouldn't be fooled by them making a bunch of nose about stripping people of their citizenship; that, I'm afraid, is a mere formality that they likely will skip in the future.

The way I heard this explained is you have to show compassion. And if they disagree on something important to you, that might be hard! But I think it's right on the money.

That said, I appreciate the way you break it down; especially that you point out the fact it can definitely be slow and painful.

Ah, yes, because I don't need money for rent and food, just healthcare.

What a moron.

Pathetic.

Jesus is still a myth. Still no actual proof he ever existed.

Get over it

Umm, what? That's exactly how it works.

That's not what you were told, sure. Maybe time to shed some of that naivete, though.

Oh, you're a complete idiot. That explains a lot...

Lol, maybe learn about the movement, dork. This is absolutely not what's being demanded.
