Is true empathy a lie?

[Kormo]

Is it just virtue signaling if someone claims to be an empath?

Thoughts?

Did u fap today my lord ?

They're probably just talking sh!t, put them to the test to see if they really are a true empath.

Make no mistake, at the core of everything that lives lies selfishness. When the going gets tough and survival becomes a priority, everything prioritizes it's self.

Depends how many layers you wanna break down / where you’re perceiving from, u feel me

[Strawng]

No. I feel it all the time & I'm extremely sensitive to it. It doesn't make you a "good person", either. If someone else wants to fuking kill me, I want to fuking kill them. If other people hate themselves and I'm around them too long, I start hating myself. People put too much of a positive value judgment on empathy. A little bit is good and necessary but too much will fuk you up.

Empathy is more like a spectrum I think, and you fall somewhere on it and you can probably move it a bit but it’s kinda set.

When I was a kid, I started to notice that whenever I saw someone get badly hurt or in a nasty accident or whatever, I would unconsciously begin nursing the injury on my own body, despite not being injured.

I think stuff like that is a clear sign you’re naturally high empathy.

No offence but I’m starting to hate other people

Only because i know the AI can control them indefinitely to troll me & question my own life

It’s tiresome srs
