Technical reasoning, fact checking, and empathy are different skills.
Just because someone is competent in one of them it is folly to assume they have competency in any others. The same rule also applies to one’s self, no exceptions.
In my heart I believe there is more that unites us than divides us. I also know in my head that humanity’s emotional buttons are very easy to press. And my gut feeling is that we’re all going to have to endure incredible physical and emotional hardship as, one way or another, the root cause of the current polycrysis is eliminated.
And I honestly don’t know what will survive once the dust has settled. Something of humanity will survive, I just don’t know who and what.
