@HonusToThe5 Because thats all they know themselves. Self serving behavior. So therefore they naturally insinuate it into others as well. Any animal rights activist is being judged like that. True communication can't even take place because of it. Instead of taking total offense now to what I am saying, please understand or try to understand me. I am not here to hurt anyone's feelings, I am here to communicate with people. I love DFW that's why I am here under this video if that makes any sense.
@HonusToThe5 Lets use language for what it is made for: To communicate with one another. And not for making lame sarcastic comments which only confuse and often totally miscommunicate. Thank you. Those people who have no conscience I guess they will never understand compassion, they will always interpret other people's empathy as self aggrandizations. Happens to me all the time when I talk to Republicans. Almost all conservatives in general misinterpret my activism as self serving behavior.

@KennyReddwooddforest
I think you must be right seeing as how your comment is so wholly empathetic and not even slightly highly self-aggrandizing.

True empathy is impossible? No. Not for those who have total conscience.
