The fact that Dean Withers had to explain and justify to his own followers about why he had empathy over Charlie’s death tells me everything I need to know about the state of the Left today

Geez, you’ll see someone being empathetic, and still have to find a way it’s bad.

Im not upset w him for having empathy, i dont think its hard for him to put himself in kirk’s shoes in the way that they practically have the same job, he’s been threatened by complete lunatics before event and now ppl are talking about how Kirk was getting threats after criticizing apac & isreal.

Really it’s the far left that was criticizing him for crying. Moderates understood why

The fact the left just accepts this inhumanity as an accepted and even glorified part of the left now is the problem
