You’d think after centuries progressives would learn they don’t have the capacity to be shamed or feel empathy.

Millennia, frankly.

They still have confederate flags and tell me that empathy is weakness so

They said empathy was a sin. These people have no morals and as an atheist I’m more humble then any of these supposed christians

No because they recite the same arguments from the 1860s and I’ve read too many accounts from then to not notice.

Just like then it’s all bible quotes mixed with social Darwinism so just a bunch of “well it wouldn’t be this way if it coulda been different, so this must be right.” Oh yeah and heaps and heaps of racism.

Who would have guessed that the laziest possible justification for something could be so useful to us as a justification for our own actions across centuries.

I hope the rest of the Democrats learn from this man.

Is “con-science” a thing? Feels like something they’d be into.

The answer: no. Shame is for people with a conscience.
