Now that it involves they’re kids, it’s an issue
It’s always the way. Every single time. I’m beginning to think con voters have some mental deficiency where they literally can’t imagine things outside their immediate perception.
“Empathy is for suckers and communists“ <- the conservative ethos in a nutshell.
Science is finding they do indeed likely have lower/under developed empathy capacity.

Wait so republicans fail the Voight-Kampff test?
Stupid upside down turtle
lol wouldn’t surprise me. Their NPC talk probably is projection like usual.
Think of how stupid the average conservative is then remember that half of them are stupider than that.
Lack of empathy :/
It’s a mixture of that and some kind of sadism. They love to protect power and inflict pain.

Not to be pedantic, but since you’re emphasising it: their (they’re = they are)
Thanks for the correction
Edit - I only dislike pedantry when it’s repeatedly thrown in my face by the ex (/s), you weren’t being pedantic IMO
The ‘edit’ button is right there, my dude.
When I edit something, I make it separate from the main entry. Not sure when I picked that habit up, but there you go. Does the entry say “edited” on it, or does it look like a normal message? It shows as “edited” on my side.
No, it doesn’t show “edited” on our end. From what I can tell, the only way for other users to see the edit is to type out the edit and explanation as you did in your previous comment
Edits are indicated by a pencil icon (or asterisk plus a parentheses with the edit timestamp if you’re using old.lemmy) next to the username. The pencil icon timestamp only shows the edited timestamp unless you mouseover it.
I’m on Connect on mobile and the pencil icon or asterisk/timestamp don’t show. It’s cool that they do on desktop, though
Hey! Thanks for the answer sister, I no further need to bother
I thought it was being used sarcastically.
“I never thought it would be MY kids traumatised in a mass shooting in school.” - Conservatives.
So true. How fuckin brain dead do you have to be to actually have this take in life? I can’t even grasp it.
The bit that gets me is that these new found campaigners for (weak-ass) gun control honestly thought they were going to get something from the Republican legislators they spoke to. Which part of not caring until it was your own kids made you think other Republicans were going to give a shit?
