empathy is just the start; it’ll help you realize why things are fucked and you can take meaningful action from there.
i used to be like you and it wasn’t until the anti-gay, anti-immigrant and anti-student laws fucked my life hard that i developed that sense of empathy that i’m imploring you to develop before things get worse for all of us.
Empathy is not the important bit, the action is. That’s what I’m talking about but you’re just virtue signaling.
To illustrate the point I’ll concede to your argument. Empathizing with people who have trouble voting is step one of fixing the problem. Great, now what’s step two? Tell me it’s not finding a way to get people to vote to change the system that’s disenfranchising them, which is exactly what I’ve been saying. You’re getting stuck on how people feel about things when that’s a secondary issue at best.
