It’s actually a strength, but Be honest, You likely have no empathy for these retards the same as they have none for you. The true empathy comes through to all kinds despite your perception of them as cruelty you project back to them.
Never really understood the whole conservative thing until I found my guardian in college going off at the freeloaders and leeches of society in a car trip back to their house. They just don’t see people outside of their clan as humans, and it’s very disappointing to hear as a bushy tailed freshman at the time.
What’s a guardian?
Somebody who is responsible for a kid. It’s a broader term than parent that includes people who have a different relationship but are ultimately raising the kid, like aunts/uncles, grandparents, foster parents, or anyone else who might be responsible for the kid.
Oh, I know that definition, but it sounded like the person I responded to met their guardian as a freshman.
Oh, gotcha. I read it as a conversation they had with their guardian that happened in their first year at college, not necessarily that the relationship started at that point.
Ah yes, tell me more about true empathy, person who thinks ableist slurs are okay if they’re used on the right people.
Yeah, I’d understand a “it’s ok to not tolerate these intolerant people”, but it’s not helping to use another vulnerable group as an insult.
Not tolerating doesn’t mean not feeling empathy. “Yeah, I’m sad you had a shitty upbringing or decided to join this group so you had a sense of belonging, but I still can’t condone you calling for harm to others.”
I’ll see the conditions that made someone want to be a nazi but I’d be lying if I said I wouldn’t replay a video of them getting their teeth kicked in for like, an entire day. That shit makes my day. Fuck that, month.
Pretty hypocritical to talk about having empathy and then turn around and fling an ableist slur at people you dislike.
You likely have no empathy for these r…
Not true. I completely understand how they are the way they are, and I feel horrible for them. It’s a terrible existence to hate all the time and be brainwashed and manipulated.
But ultimately you can’t help people who don’t want to be helped, so you spend your time helping those who do.
I don’t like strawman arguments even when I agree with them, because they’re cringe and silly.
I swear I block accounts like this OPs every day and then they just make more accounts so I am forced to see their political sludge on non political communities every dang day
we need more corn or whatever the fuck
Russia definitely found Lemmy.

Ah, okay, OP doesn’t care about the mentally disabled.
I didn’t see that :(. ruins the post
Conservatism, boiled down to its core belief, to its very heart, is simply the belief that a certain small group (usually white, afluent, monocultural, with highly homogeneous backgrounds) has the right to inflict violence on everyone else.
‘no they just want to go back to how things were and they’re slow to adapt’
Buddy. Friend. Pal. Mate. Companion. They’re literally still fuming about the French Revolution and the Paris Commune challenging the divine authority of kings. They want to make it so you don’t have any power and they have all of it.
No seriously. It’s Edmund Burke and his whole shtick. Everything else is just dress-up really. Caring about the rights of women and everything just to pit one group against the next. They’ll play the political game but really it’s just they’re yearning to return to hunting people for sport as the nobles they take themselves for.
Also, it’s so fucking easy to not be ableist and yet here you are doing it anyway, OP. Shameful really.
Wilhoit’s Law
Pretty much
Slurs fucking suuuck!
It’s almost as if their entire ideology is inconsistent and based around hate of another group. I wonder if that makes them easy to manipulate? (Rhetorical)
Kids: “So you care about us?”
Conservatives: “Shut up you little kid, you have the duty to take care of your parents even if they’re awful to you, and to learn a lot in school!”
Young adults: “So we can get college degrees?”
Conservatives: “No you stupid idiot, even if you graduate with top grades, you have to go to learn trades instead, our donors have finally automated the job of intellectuals!”
Workers: “So you’re pro-worker? Will the AI mean less work for us?”
Conservatives: “No you lazy idiot, you will have to work like in China’s 996 system, all while we gut the remaining job security under you!”
I work with a bunch of people who think this way. The even crazier thing is that half of them are also Mormon and the other half is Mexican.
So you don’t see mental disabilities as shameful?
Wrong! Fuck retards!
That’s OP
I have autistic hyper empathy and physically feel it, I can empathize with them, but I hate them.
Feels kind of like the Goomba fallacy. But sure, there are definitely people like this holding similar opinions, however it is usually more nuanced than how it is presented here.
It really isn’t in my experience. They wouln’t be rightwingers if they truly cared for people.
They care for certain specific people. Just like you care for everybody except them.
