But what you describe is not an empathic person, but someone with poor boundaries and maybe a fragile ego. That’s not the same.

If you use your empathy to being evil, it’s not the empathy that is the problem, but you being evil.

If you have empathy, but no conscience, it’s not the empathy that is the problem, but the lack of conscience.

It’s good your mom tried. It’s sad she gave up so soon. I’ve helped 4 people switch in the past months. I’ve gotten even more people curious and more open to switch. A success is not only the switch, but that people start to realize that they can. In my opinion. :-)

Based on linux is no guarantee for stable, secure or privacy respecting software. Android is based on Linux. :-) And so is Remarkable, and some of the e-book readers.

I really like both the idea behind e-book readers and Remarkable, but they are often a very closed environment, so forget about most FOSS, if any. They want to make money on you, and that stops, if you use other software than theirs.

Could you define how overly empathetic people act?

There’s no such thing as toxic empathy. If it’s hurting others, it’s not empathy.

He did not. But it’s most likely both.

Clearly? Where is it clear? This meme is attacking welfare states, to thr harm of those who needs it.

Totally baloney… with a little exception. It’s true, that a welfare state culls some of the reasons to make an uprising. But a welfare state doesn’t take away any ability to self organize, or ability to work with each other.

A true welfare state would promote innovation and aspiration at the bottom. But a welfare state created to shut the protests down, would have welfare with demands. Like if you get welfare you should spend all your time looking for work, and you can’t earn anything, and your help will only be enough to survive.

I can see that you are a classic fact denier, and therefore I’ll just let you live with your confusions. Far be it for me to waste time on getting you to know your errors.

And the study should also mention, that the LLMs don’t do anything by themselves, they do what they are trained to do… noting more. They are just machines.

They are worse than nazis. No punishment can be hard enough for those committing these crimes.

I can see, that you couldn’t answer my simple question. And therefore you shouldn’t claim that you know the history of Marx. Here’s a little helper for you, but I doubt you are interested. You seem like a guy who thinks he has al the knowledge in the world, and won’t ever admit to not knowing things. But do try to read about the Paris Commune, and how the common people worked together, shared and was then brutally attacked and punished by the rich people of France, and even Germany (which they had just been in a war with). The rich of both countries feared workers power more, than they feared each other. But that’s where “Communism” come from, the Paris Commune…

You error is, that you think that capitalism did something that feudalism wasn’t already doing.

The state of Israel is a terror-state. Free Palestine - and punish every single person involved in Israels crimes - even politicians from other countries, and companies providing weapons!

No it was not. But bright as you are, and knowledgeable, then please do tell me, where did Marx go to find inspiration for the communist manifesto and Das Kapital? Please enlighten me? Where in the world, at that time, did communism start to blossom? And why did it stop?

I did not say that the Marxist position was to return to the past. I said that you are wrong, to say that capitalism brought this on. You have no proof, what so ever, that capitalism has done any real good… Socialism has, workers fight for rights has - capitalism is the cancer of the whole world.

Follow your own advice and start reading now - but first tell me, where did Marx go to find inspiration for his work on communism?

I might misunderstand you, but I’m not confused. And you should read up on history. The communist manifest was written mainly from experience from feudalism. Capitalism was a waste of time, killing millions, if not a billion people, and a lot of species on the way - while polluting the earth, air and water on the way…

We have always known how to work together. That’s what a tribe, a people, a town was for. If we didn’t, we wouldn’t have survived as a species.

You really can’t say that life expectancy has improved, just because you have created more customers. At the same time you have polluted every single part of the planet, and people are suffering because of this, and we are killing of species in record speed.

It’s sick, sorry to say, that you think that capitalism paved the way for anything good.

Oh, maybe you should read up on socialism, because that’s really what’s have made the world a better place.

Name one concrete example of capitalism bettering the world - and be careful not to confuse your example with that of socialism?!?

Bought my own domain, then bought a webhotel I trust, and set my up my own system. Works really well.

Usurped feudalism? Nah, it really didn’t. It just changed it to something like it, but far worse.

Is it about being “impressive”?

Well, fair enough. To me, anyone living up to human rights, is impressive to me. I don’t need an impressive logo - just a recognizable one.
