@gemma I’d need to see some scientific studies upholding this. I’ve never seen a study suggesting that empathy can be learned. And even if someone who has empathy can turn it off, it doesn’t stay off permanently. It’s too painful. @nedhamson @harriettmb@mastodon.ie
@drazraeltod You’re talking about fundamentalist right wingers. Of course they do NOT follow logical thinking.
@mambearpnw@mastodon.social I only see one way to interpret it. Books are being banned because “they” feel that books can change the way someone thinks and feels. And yes, up to a point, but reading a book abut a gay couple isn’t going to make the reader gay any more than reading a biography about a serial killer is going to turn the reader into a Republican.
If books are responsible, then why aren’t guns?

And how much do I love that the UAW president REPORTED presidential candidate Tim Scott (R-Russia) to the NLRB for stating that striking workers should be fired.
I LOVE THAT. BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THESE BUREAUS ARE FOR.
LITERALLY USE IT OR LOSE IT.
@gemma You can’t teach empathy. Full stop. @nedhamson @harriettmb@mastodon.ie
@Free_Press I can read these stories all day. They give me the warm fuzzies.

3/ It just gets BETTER!
Via Elizabeth De La Vega:
The judge has ordered cancellation of all [NYS] business certs of "any entity controlled or beneficially owned by Donald J. Trump, Donald Trump, Jr, Eric Trump, Alan Weisselberg, & Jeffrey McConney. An independent receiver will manage the dissolutions.
