In reply to the discussion: My capacity for empathy has become selective [View all]Jamastiene
(38,187 posts)I am so fed up with the way Republicans make living in my state (NC) a living hell, that I have lost any empathy for them at all. They contribute nothing to the advancement of the species. They contribute nothing to help anyone or anything but themselves. They openly break the law and flaunt it when they repeatedly get away with it. They KNOW the Democrats will never hold them accountable, because they have danced circles around the Democratic Party to make sure even the few Democrats who do speak up and try to stop them are powerless to do so.
They leave us no choice, really. They are the lowest form of criminal out there and they flaunt it that they get away with it to that degree that they MAKE you hate them, when you might not have normally been much into hating anyhow. They leave us no choice. And trust me, you are not alone. It is just that very few of us are willing to admit we want to hold up a rubber mirror to them and let their hate and corruption bounce back onto themselves.
