I usually avoid politics on this community but thought this article kinda fit
seeing people shitposting in the comments here.
And while it’s funny, i concur on that. Should we also not congratulate them for being able to grow and change?
These isn’t exactly a leopards situation. This would be more of a leopards situation if they did nothing but complain about republicans being shitty, which they havent done.
personally, i think these two people are rather nice individuals. I suspect they make for some ballin grandparents as well.
‘no empathy’ people are wrong about cons. They have empathy but it is selectively turned off for certain groups because they have been conditioned to be afraid or disgusted by them. This isn’t an excuse but it is normal behavior - a lot of lefties don’t give a damn about the wellbeing of cops either. It’s not the same thing but it IS the same mechanism. Fear and hate stops people from feeling empathy. It’s human psychology and the cornerstone of all right-wing rhetoric.
I believe that by learning to undermine that kind of hateful rhetoric we can kill the soul of the anti-trans movement.
Mmmm, it’s certainly not a monolithic group but I have a couple friends who are now hated by their parents for their queerness
It’s never too late to develop the valuable human skill of “empathy.”
Although most of us learn it at an early age.
