people who just hurt others (excluding mental disorders) who think they're "selfish" are so stupid

[NeverLetMeDown]

Topics on empathy and shit make me tweaaak dafuq out because like you just don't actually understand it enough to be complaining about it

This sounds ridiculous but I'm right

[NeverLetMeDown]

@french_fry_guy

Its like a lose-lose situation

[french_fry_guy]

@NeverLetMeDown said in evil people who just hurt others who think they're "selfish" are so stupid:

Like the way you talk about it makes it seem like you're saying lack of empathy is a choice when its not at all if I could I would be the ultimate empath but it doesnt work that way

This ️
You can’t control what you feel, and it’s like trying to tell an AroAce person to just “have romantic feelings for someone” when they literally can’t. And if you were an ultimate empath you would be constantly be contradicting yourself. You know how bad the world is and yet you’re so willing to help anyone just because you want to

[french_fry_guy]

@NeverLetMeDown pretty much. It’s either never fully understand why you hurt people or always try to help someone who’ll just hurt you anyway

[french_fry_guy]

@NeverLetMeDown you are 100% right
Empathy is subjective itself. No one knows how much empathy there actually is, only what you feel and what you can observe

[french_fry_guy]

@french_fry_guy

Yes empathy is subjective I was trying to figure out how to word this earlier but I could not figure it out thank you oh my god

[french_fry_guy]

@NeverLetMeDown NP twin

[UnpaidIntern]

@NeverLetMeDown sry, i did not mean to make this about empathy, which I now know is NOT the correct word to use here

[french_fry_guy]

@UnpaidIntern “common sense” isn’t much better : /

[french_fry_guy]

Common sense is even more subjective because it changes based on the person, place, topic of discussion, and context of the given situation. You can’t tell me in full honesty you’ve never said anything or did anything that you don’t regret. That is an example of not using “common sense,” and if you did, then why did you do that?

@NeverLetMeDown uuuuppppvvooteee

[french_fry_guy]

But in all reality this topic being brought up definitely pinched a nerve for me because I have met people that ACTUALLY suffer from this and people that FAKE having this so it really makes me mad when they’re bundled together like they’re both the problem. The problem is that people or social media like TikTok normalize faking disorders in general. It seems like the most mentally degrading or unhealthy disorders are the ones that get the most popularized.
