@conservmillen I don't think it is empathy at all, its all about how they feel. Their empathy is very selective.
If one is truly empathetic they would realize that things are not simple and there are many competing interests.
@FRovet@DanCrenshawTX Define fair share...
Fair share is paying your own way.
People want argue that SS is their money, they paid into it and they deserve it.
But then argue that we should remove the cap and also rich people shouldn't be able to recoup what they've paid in.
You make no sense.
@SwipeWright Many people don't really care about truth, they'd rather muddy the waters and twist things up to validate how they think things should be.
@wil_da_beast630 Many Republicans are only against DEI because it is unfair on the individual level.
They wrongly assume that the lack of racial diversity solely because of past or current discrimination as opposed to cultural and historical differences between racial groups.
@IzzetFun@CynicalPublius How you describe their ideology is totally irrelevant. The fact is that the Democratic Party has a very racist history.
Instead of apologizing for it and owning up to the bad positions of their organization, they try to shift the blame to their political opponents.
@TheUnabomberman@DisavowedVet@CynicalPublius It's the Democrat party's lame attempt to gaslight and explain away their racist history. Its the same organization It's always been.
@TheUnabomberman@DisavowedVet@CynicalPublius Its a ridiculous attempt for the Democratic Party to blame their past "sins" on their political opponents.
Only a narcissist could come up with such convoluted logic.
