You can have empathy and still ignore it, integrity is much more important

Empathy can just as easily make the world a worse place.

Yeah I would hope so, really i would hope that any of these qualities would strengthen/support the other ones, but if you have empathy without any integrity, respect or patience or some other such combination then no amount of empathy or anything else will help the world's current situation

Good point! Although this question specifically asked which you think people need more of; not to say they don’t all already possess the other qualities to some degree
