Comment on Can we stop asking people who are on the brink of death and suffering greatly to sacrifice themselves for a bunch of able bodied people who refuse to stand up and sacrifice themselves for us?

  Yeah I’d really rather not call people out directly. I don’t think they’re trying to be rude. Just thoughtless. But yes, mostly here on Lemmy.

    There are a lot of people, especially on lemmy, who see everything through the lens of their personal ideology and utterly lack the ability to empathize or understand different views or life situations. You only matter to them insofar as to how it can advance or support their ideology. It’s pathological, and their views should be ignored.

      What is it that makes Lemmy users uniquely selfish or unempathetic?

        That’s a fair question. It’s mostly just my observation, but if I were obligated to guess, it is partially filtering based on the types of people who are active and readily express their opinions on various topics, but also because of the reasons people moved to lemmy in the first place, many of whom were evicted from reddit because they were too extreme.

        @RedditRefugee69 @OccamsRazer Wild guess: normal people. Or utter squares, the debate about the difference still rages on.
