SorryQuick@lemmy.ca 3 weeks agoThis is a bit of an extreme view. Most conservatives do have empathy, though they will prioritize their closed ones with it.
The problem with this specific scenario with the tarrifs is just people being misinformed and buying everything the party tells them, but I wouldn’t blame it on lack of empathy. If they’d actually known what the repercussions would be, I don’t think most of them would have voted for trump.

Many, many conservatives voted for dump to punish immigrants. Many, many people voted to “own the libs”, just like the person cited in this very post.
Please… point to the “empathy” in “owning the libs”. They might have the tiniest drop of empathy for some, but the problem is they have a lot more HATE for people they don’t even fucking know. That makes them terrible people no matter how much you say, “butbut they still have some empathy!”.
Yea, the problem is they have more hate than empathy.

Democrats are also a conservative party. Biden is a conservative with empathy.
