Enlighten us.

It's minuscule.

May you continue to be. May we all......

Agree, but it was forwarded by a friend that I trust.

Thank you.

Actually, I don't, and I am not. I can, however, have a non-binary, more nuanced view. Try it. It might improve your disposition.

@Mitch07102 Yes, you are and you do. A look back at your previous posts proves it. You consistently lack empathy. Have you ever undertaken the Psychopathy Checklist?

@LovinLarge I have taken many psychological tests during my working life. I consistently score in the top decile for empathy. I also understand that there is always misery and unfairness in the world; I have experienced my share. I choose-and it is a choice-not to wallow in it.

Amor Fati.

Thanks for contributing to the discussion.

@Mitch07102 That makes sense. The more psychological testing one does, the more familiar one becomes with selecting the answers that make one appear the way one wants to be seen. The scores are only as accurate as the answers given.

@LovinLarge Or the way one is. Or some combination of the two. Also, note that in a corporate setting, empathy is not necessarily a desired trait among the more senior leaders.

@Mitch07102 Correct, empathy is not a desired trait amongst corporate leaders which us why it is not uncommon to find psychopaths amongst them. They will be exposed and expelled by the progressive movement away from hierarchical structures that won't tolerate your practice of condescension.

I have hard time understanding y this post offend u or y u say it shows no empathy . What m I missing of your point of view ?
People die or have dysfunctional disabilities every day bcz of strokes . I do feel lucky not having one yet . Is that making me an asshole ? I can educate people of how to prevent one , I can treat them at acute onset , and I can be very upset when no great outcomes . Yet , at the end of the day , when driving home or in bed , it does register again and again , “ fuck. That could had be me , it is a good thing I am not the one today “.
I mean , if u think that makes me an asshole ,, no problem , it is what is , I won’t die , and if u think Mitch is a sociopath or whatever bcz he posted this , I am sure he won’t die as well , I am just curious , that’s all ♥️

@Pralina1 He has a history of chastising others for things like "whining about COVID" that I take exception to because it lacks empathy for the misfortunes of others and it is inappropriate for him to dictate to others how to cope with their misfortunes.

@LovinLarge I don’t see how he dictates in any way how to cope w covid or any misfortune .
Personally I get more nauseated by the majority of “ inspirational “ memes and such alike .
I don’t see where u see that here , where does he say or implying that we shouldn’t care by the less fortunate or , that we should settle for what we got , or , we should walk around like roosters bcz we” made it “.
I don’t know if numbers are correct , math / statistics not my strong subject in life .
The truth is , some of us have more than others . That includes the basics . Voicing the fact does not making us hard asses. Most x , it’s when u realize how much u got , that u feel stupid and willing to give to others at whatever level of your capacity .
Also , no where said that just bcz u have a cell phone or water and roof , u are not aloud to whine if shit happens .
Hell yeah I’ll whine , I ll bitch !!!
I bitch daily , I can bitch bcz not enough ice cubes available , yeah , I am that asshole . And I can understand and be there at same time for those who are affected by covid let’s say .
There are ways to do both . This is not to criticize I think how people handle their tragedies . This is to inspire the ones w less tragedies to knowledge their damn luck / whatever , to understand that with a blink of an eye shit happens , and to help others who are in the shithole .
That’s what I got out of this .
Also ( apparently I have a lot to say ), I am also condescending and demanding of people around me to be “ all that “ and not whine most of times .
When back in March nurses fearful of covid , ( self included ), I bitched to who ever can listen , but to my team I said “ that will be ok . Stop the drama , at least we have some n95s , have u seen these bitches at New York ??. We gonna be ok , none of us got tb b4( airborne ), shut mouths and let’s get busy “. I HAD TO DO THIS . Other ways ,, we all sit around and be fearful and nothing will get done .
Ok I am done .

You don’t think they maybe made some better decisions down the road to where they are today.

So tell me, what country exactly did Finland oppress?

@Hanno yes, better decisions....

My sincere condolences. Grief is normal and healthy. To regard it as "whining" is abnormal and unhealthy. Please disregard. Big hug.

@LovinLarge thank you.

That’s a bit harsh..you are assuming “ same circumstances”

Nope, it's only accident of birth.
