		<description>&lt;i&gt;Conservatism = racial hatred = fascism. Where does empathy fit into this equation? &lt;/i&gt; 
 
Says the bigot doing his best to demonize political opponents. 
 
Hmm... what sort of political groups do that? Ah yes, dictators and tyrants, which includes fascists. 
 
For someone who claims to be anti-fascist, anti-kin sure acts like one. I&#039;m sure the lurkers noticed, but sometimes these things do have to be pointed out, even if it feeds an attention-starved emo troll.

		<description>I believe it&#039;s called the fallacy of the excluded middle, or perhaps the No True Scotsman fallacy.  
  
Combined with all the strawmen they genocide, debating with folks like Cognitive Dissonance is an exercise in frustration, unless you realize they are very dishonest and simply point out their lies in the hopes that any lurkers reading in the background might turn against them. </description>

		<description>You use multiple words that do not mean what you think they mean. 
 
I&#039;d say &quot;inconceivable&quot; but I actually do find the idea that folks like you blather on without actually understanding what the words actually mean to be quite conceivable. Have to be careful with finding excuses to use quotes from &lt;i&gt;The Princess Bride&lt;/i&gt;, or even modifications of such.

		<description>Um, I don&#039;t think the previous posters were trying to say that they were more empathetic (empathic would be cool, but not likely).  I think what they were getting at is that empathy is not what should be used when deciding cases based on the rule of law, which is a judges job. The basic idea being equal justice under the law.  Nice job with the stereotyping though, especially since the last study that was done on people&#039;s giving (charities, etc...) showed that conservatives were more giving of time and money (from lofty CEO to lowly white trash) than those who consider themselves liberal.  So get off your high and mighty horse of &quot;holier than thou&quot;, I love the (fill in your favorite victim group) more than you and read to understand, not react. </description>

		<description>The bottom line is that most people in the majority demonstrate little empathy.  The far right..mostly made up of white males show no empathy to the homeless, single mothers, people on welfare, immigrants etc...These are the people that most people rant against.  So don&#039;t be acting all high and mighty like you are an empathic group...please the hypocrisy of it all. </description>

		<description>No. Not robots, but persons who can look beyond emotions and decide based on fact.  
 
I was caught sucker punching a bully when I was 9 years old. He had bullied me, accompanied by a bunch of friends for weeks. I eventually caught him alone and gave him a royal butt kickin&#039;. I got into trouble at school and my parents would not dispute the punishment.  
 
My dad told me that he probably would have done the same thing.  But I broke the rules and would need to pay the penalty. Then, he told me to defend myself, with no quarter given, the next time the bully and his toadies tried their stuff with me again. If it was self defense, he would defend me to his last breath at school.  
 
The bully tried it again and I knocked him on his butt again. The toadies backed off as well. The bully got into trouble that time at school.  
 
That was empathy and reality all rolled up into one lesson for me. And the Principal did not have to be a robot to make the correct decision in each occasion. </description>
