The right has basically deemed it bad to have empathy and care for other people. There's always a deflection and a downplay because they can't stand it when people aren't as cruel as them.

If you still consider yourself a Republican at this point, you're on the wrong side.

I'm not on the wrong side, sorry bruh.

The GOP is edging dangerously close to fascist nationalism, and it's unacceptable.

Fair enough. But not by much.

It took Obama almost eight years to close Guantanamo. A major issue for me at least.

Still better than any Republican to be fair.

Obligatory

Baizuo (/batsw/;[1] Chinese: bizu, literally "white left"[2]) is a derogatory Chinese neologismused to refer to Western liberal elites.[3][4][5] In more than 400 answers submitted by Zhihu users during 2015 to May 2017, the term is defined as referring to those who are hypocritically obsessed with peace and equality in order to satisfy their own feeling of moral superiority motivated from an ignorant and arrogant Western-centric worldview who pity the rest of the world and think they are saviours. A related term is shngm (, , literally "holy mother", title for the mother of an emperor), a sarcastic reference to those whose political opinions are guided by emotions and a hypocritical show of selflessness and empathy, represented by celebrities.[6]

What does the fact that there's a Chinese word for SJW have to do with anything?

Damn, he worked so hard to close it that not only did it never close while he was in charge, it continues to be open today.

People are mad at her for being sad instead of trying.

You know, Ive worked in hospitals for 8 years and its always struck me how immature younger doctors and surgeons seem compared to the rest of us and I think its due to the extreme extended adolescence they go through, where theyre basically in school until their late 20s and using loans to pay for their lives so they never really start having to deal with the real world, but also think theyre very smart and above everyone because theyre doctors

Anyway its really striking with coffeebeanz here because shes really going all in on espousing talking points most people grow out of after their teen years

That part confuses me as well.

I mean, I absolutely get calling out people for feigned empathy, especially the ones that turn around asking for praise and accolades for putting on a good show. But it's my understanding that AOC *actually* cares, and has been consistent with her view of these concentration camps and her concern for those trapped within them.

What's the non-hypocritical reaction supposed to be to people at concentration camps? Would you prefer if her reaction had been to open up her phone and start tweeting about how concentration camps are bad, but people who want to close concentration camps are also just as bad?

Anything disproving the notion that she doesn't really care is just ignored, they just pretend they didn't see it and continue sharing their flaming hot take on the matter in the hopes that eventually the evidence and opposite viewpoint is buried. Take post 90, for instance.

Literally anything would be just as bad as anything else. Shows too much emotion? Oh, she's putting on a show. Too little? What a hypocrite, she says she cares but she's just standing there all normal and stuff.

Here's what's most likely going to happen. In either 2020 or 2024, a Democrat will win the presidential election. The situation at the border will not change. All the people on the left who are aghast over these "concentration camps" will then go silent, just like they were during Obama's presidency.
