Eh. Fits with what I see in politics, the folks voting for right winger, and my own experiences conversing with them IRL. I see no issue with making that assumption and then being pleasantly surprised the odd time it isn’t true.
Maybe it’s a North America thing, tho. It’s quite possible that the euro flavor of right wing is a more empathetic group.
I didn’t say they were “all bad.” I said they lacked empathy and I wasn’t interested in being friends with them.
Conservative and progressive brains are different.

And one of those differences is empathy. https://academic.oup.com/scan/article/18/1/nsad029/7175525

Black reports that every Nazi concentration camp maintained its own Hollerith-Abteilung (Hollerith Department), assigned with keeping tabs on inmates through use of IBM’s punchcard technology.[2]: 351 In his book, Black charges that “without IBM’s machinery, continuing upkeep and service, as well as the supply of punch cards, whether located on-site or off-site, Hitler’s camps could have never managed the numbers they did.”[2]: 352
I’m not sure that’s true. One side has empathy. The other does not. I don’t want to be friends with someone who doesn’t have empathy.
Yup. Idiots incapable of compromise, so they get nothing.
Neuromancer on the C64. I can still hear the theme music.
Snapper saved my ass so hard last night! I’ve tried all the other major distros and TW is where I stayed.
Another strawman. I’m waaaay too old for TikTok. My opinions are arrived at by reading the news on CBC, BBC, and occasionally Reuters.
Isreal could have ended their border threat decades ago by NOT KILLING CIVILIANS.
Every time they murder a little schoolgirl they turn that whole family in to terrorists. It’s not rocket science. But Isreal is too far blinded by hatred and desire to expand that they can’t see the blinding obvious facts.
Incels always be fuckzoning every “female” they meet. It’s why their celibacy is involuntary.
IBM sold “inmate” counting machines to Nazi Germany. Like, sent techs there to the camps to size up the requirements and everything. It should NOT come as a surprise that they’re back on X - they’ve never had an issue with Fascism (or any other ism) as long as they had money to spend on overpriced iron.
Nah, I don’t want that. But sure seems like Isreal does. Isreal is breeding terrorists/freedom fighters faster than the IDF can kill women and children. Stealing land doesn’t seem to help either… better try killing more civilians!
Never understood what kind of an idiot you have to be to choose coal over nuclear. Absolutely bonkers.
In Canada. If I get canned my severance is 1.5 years salary. (Based on length of emplyment.) It’s even better in Europe. It’s what happens when a country doesn’t flipflop between two right wing parties and actually has a party focused on the working class.
Omg, that’s hilarious!
Exactly. Always wondered what he was thinking the second time, lol!
It’s true. You don’t deserve what’s happening. You put up a good fight, and now you’re hosed. I’m so sorry this is going to happen to you. I sincerely hope you find a way out.
Eh, the ocean taking Florida will be a net gain for humanity. I’m looking forward to watching all those republican voters lose their houses.
Anyone with half a brain was looking at projected sea level rise before buying a house, so… ya. Byeeeeee Florida, you won’t be missed.
They do be that stupid!
Hawkeye was a flirt, not a rapist. He took a lot of no’s with grace.
Ya, I’m not talking about extremists. I’m talking about just normal everyday people.
