So much for Western civilization . . . The wages of suicidal empathy are now here for all to see. (I’m looking at you, too, United Kingdom and European Union.)

Street naming also seems to be an issue by the Mayor of Dearborn too… tells minister to get of town if you don’t like it. :crazy_face:

The same thing happened where I live several years ago only it was the “noisy Catholic Church bells” on Sunday mornings. They had been doing it for years as the area is primarily Catholic and nobody complained or maybe dared to complain. The priest was very well liked. He used to bring his dogs to church. Folks thought that was so cool.
I used to hear the church bells ringing from my house which is a few miles from the church.
They rang for a few minutes which I liked very much. However those who lived closer to the church complained resulting in silence now on Sundays. I would imagine the bell sounds were quite loud for those living nearby if I could hear them from miles away.

Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells

Oh, we’ve had that here for years. You get used to the noise. We had noise here too, so the people of the muslim religion were shouting, you’re rebelling against our faith, not against the noise. We still have noise, but less. It was all politicized, but now it’s more peaceful.
Otherwise, it’s basically conquering minds and territory with the help of religion, yes.

Well what if empaths don’t exist at all.Instead
there are only people who project their needs and sufferings and pains to the extreme on others, and help others because they do not believe they are worthy by and of themselves, and find it difficult to take responsibility for themselves.In other words they help others only to feel good for themselfs,to reduce their own pain and suffering as much as possible.To feel pleasure from act of helping others.
I know this seems like a harsh thought, but what if it’s true.
How many times have we heard it in life…I suffered like you and had troubles like yours, so I know how you feel and I will help you…
Not that we shouldn’t help other people, but not for selfish, egotistical reasons in order to heal and preserve our own ego, using a defense mechanism projection.

Divergent: I’m not against empathy. People with no empathy are sociopaths and psychopaths, like most of the ruling class in most times and places. But even a good thing, when taken to an extreme, can be a bad thing. The appeasement of Islam in Western countries, where Islam isn’t compatible with the culture, is like preparing a nice meal and a warm bed for a thief who breaks into your house. Self-loathing and lack of any instinct for self-preservation are just as much mental problems as total lack of empathy.

Don’t give them any ideas! Next thing you know, Macron will install a loudspeaker atop Notre-Dame in Paris.

I didn’t say you were against empathy. I simply expressed my opinion on what empathy actually is. But that’s just my opinion, nothing more. As for the terms psychopaths and sociopaths, I think it’s necessary to replace those terms with others that are better, more comprehensive, clearer, and that better describe such non-humans.Just saying that maybe in that way woul’d be better understanding what they are infact,in essence i mean.
As for the other part it is like i said:
“Otherwise, it’s basically conquering minds and territory with the help of religion, yes.”

Lost count how many times I’ve heard and listened to this tune. :musical_note: Put my earbuds in and took a trip down memory lane. Thanks :sunglasses:

I can think of lots of other words besides “psychopath” and “sociopath,” but they’re not appropriate for a polite website like this one. Maybe “sick/disgusting/evil people who don’t mind hurting and killing other people for no reason or who enjoy doing so.” I’m open to better suggestions . . .

… there is no use for empathy of any kind at this point.
