ParsnipWitch,

What kind of perspective does one need to have to believe it is good when there are no resources (money, people) to care for the elderly?

For example that Gaza is overcrowded not because Israel made it so, but because on average people in Gaza have 5+ children.

You believe that anyone who says it is not genocide is fine with people killing Palestinians?

So you are fine with murdering people as long as it is not genocide?

ParsnipWitch,

I let you in on a secret: these type of people exist in every gender. So do people who are sensitive and emotional. Stereotypes and sexism about that is dumb. Believing anecdotal evidence speaks for a whole group of people is dumb as well.

What works if someone has a preference is to look early into how a person ticks. Instead of focusing on stereotypes and other superficial assumptions (for example).

The difference between empathy and sympathy

In my experience some people struggle with empathy a lot more than they realise. And the “solutions” they offer are just ways for them to try and get out of an uncomfortable conversation. There are better and more honest ways to do that.
