It seems that CK message got to me. Somehow, I don’t feel empathy.
Have you reflected on that? The less empathy you feel, the more you are honouring his memory.
And the more you celebrate the way he died, the more his message stays true.
Weird. This started as a shitpost and then got serious.
I chose to try to feel empathy for his children and still denounce gun violence and lack of action to stop it.
Empathy doesn’t mean you’ll adjust your position. It just means you can RP as someone well enough to come away with an understanding from that person’s perspective.
You can be empathetic and once the exercise is over, still not budge in terms of your original assessment.
Empathy is dangerous to fascists. Everything they’re doing unravels if a population is good at it. It’s why they hate it so much. Don’t toss them a free W.
