Makes excuses not to sympathize. Brings up made up stereotypes about people as reasons not to sympathize.
EVERYONE and EVERYTHING is fine in their worldview. Someone is suffering? They deserve it orrr they aren't actually suffering and are just trying to get you to sympathize. There is something extremely wrong going on? Maybe it's time we changed our morals, it's not that bad, really.
Doesn't think beyond whether or not it's socially acceptable.
