I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:
-
Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.
-
Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.
-
Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.

Why should there be? Republicans don't even know what empathy is. They are rolling back rights on people presently. But sure, let's have all the empathy in the world because you demand it...from one side.
If Republicans don't have sympathy for Democrats (that's what I'm assuming your position is here), and therefore Democrats shouldn't have sympathy for Republicans, should Republicans have sympathy for Democrats, even though they don't have sympathy for them?
You're making it needlessly complicated, probably on purpose.
Haha yeah I wasn't sure that I would get a straight answer, but I had some hope.
I see this on both the left and right, I LOVE it when people get mad at people on the other side for doing something and then use that as an excuse to do the exact same thing they're mad about lol
So you think there's an opposite and equal side to those reducing our rights? At this point in history? What exactly has the left done to the right that is "the exact same thing?"
Tolerance of the intolerant is all I'm hearing.
I'm talking about empathy here. Will you continue to call for Republicans to be empathetic to you and your causes while you refuse to do the same to them?
