Actually the clip is about sympathy versus empathy. And that's not the least bit helpful.
People don't want pity. You would need to step in that person's shoes and empathize. People want solutions and you can't have a solution if you don't have the same problems.
Kirk was an inflammatory piece of human garbage and the world is better without him in it. Nice to see him get to enjoy the fruits of his own words. It was fitting as a sacrifice to say the least.
Funny enough that's the exact justification the right will use when they send u to a concentration camp. And if they don't sympathise with ur situation they can't possibly hope to empathise with it. Ill feel bad as u get dragged off the the gas chambers but then I'll remember this conversation and realise this is what u advocated for.
