People in the comment section of US politics, despite being overwhelmingly liberal, don’t seem to have basic empathy for other liberals, so I’m not sure what baseline you are trying to establish.

That’s the point. Empathy has become a buzzword and nobody really knows what it means. If we make it corny people will stop using it

on a very basic level its being able to put yourself in another persons shoes and feel what they feel.

Exactly. Thats impossible you can’t ever really understand how someone feels. Sympathy is a better word for it

it absolutely is not impossible. empathy can be having lived through an extremely comparable situation, or just being able to comprehend the situation. sympathy is completely different. please tell me what you think sympathy is

Sympathy is feeling concerned or sorry for someone when they go through something. It’s way better than empathy

have you not felt empathy a single time in your life? how can you claim one is better than the other while saying you cannot feel empathy at all?

I’ve felt sympathy. It’s impossible to feel empathy

"empathy is impossible" and then one is better than the other. you cant empathize with another person when they got a bad grade on an exam? remembering how you felt when something similar happened to you? caring for someone when they broke a bone because you know what that feels like yourself?

youve never felt empathic and yet say one is better than the other? either you dont know what empathy actually means, youre genuinely an unfeeling sociopath, or a baiter than im about to block like #2 because neither of you are worth acknowledging that you breathe

Why are you getting so angry? There’s no way to feel empathy. A dog can’t imagine itself feeling the same feelings as a human. That’s even more far fetched
