Empathy v. Love


Empathy -- You have empathy for another person to the extent your sense of well being is reduced when the well being of the other person is reduced.  Empathy, being more like tough love (or wise love), is more encompassing than love. Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another.
(Empathy is more involved than undifferentiated sympathy, in that it relates to placing yourself in the context of another person, as if to sense through their senses, to walk in their shoes, to consider yourself as if you were them and them as if they were you.)

Love -- You have love for another person to the extent your happiness is reduced when the happiness of the other person is reduced.  An intense feeling of deep affection.

Spiritual Empathy -- The consciousness of every person is connected to the consciusness of every other person, even when subject only to a general sense of beingness as opposed to a specific and direct sense of detection.  Consciousness is consciousness; my consciousness is your consciousness; however, among mortals, perspectives of consciousness are separated so as to necessitate their particular senses to detect.

Perspective Empathy -- Consciousness is consciousness; my consciousness is your consciousness; however, among mortals, perspectives of consciousness are separated so as to necessitate their particular senses to detect.

Sympathy -- (General) feeling of pity and sorrow for someone else's misfortune; understanding between people; common feeling.  Without specific differentiation, you may pity another person without understanding the other person.  (Empathy is more involved than undifferentiated sympathy, in that it relates to placing yourself in the context of another person, as if to sense through their senses, to walk in their shoes, to consider yourself as if you were them and them as if they were you.)

The UniParty, which serves and profits from kickbacks by crony oligarchs, is not capable of impeaching anyone whose dereliction amounts to serving and profiting from kickbacks by crony oligarchs. So long as the President bestows gifts to select oligarchs, he is untouchable.

No amount of corruption or gross indecency can cause a President's removal. Indeed, the greater his corruption, the greater his immunity. We need an amendment for an alternative. Maybe a 2/3 vote by State Governors.

It is still important that DAPA not be recognized as a legitimate way to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution the Constitution. Hope remains that a future President will take heed in the way he preserves, protects and defends the Constitution. Unless Hillary, Bernie, Kasich, Ryan, or some other Trojan Horse for the NWO Establishment is elected.

Khrushev wanted to bury America. Obama is the Little Nikita who grew up to get it done. Treason, treason, treason!

Trump should seek contributions to form and fund a committee to study the feasibility of a political party to represent the interests of Americans who want to conserve liberty and the representative republic, i.e., a National Liberty Party.

It should stand as a force against the gates of hell, i.e., the NWO-OWG pretensions of the unholy axis of crony commies that is bent on subjugating masses of serfs to a worldwide syndicate of depraved oligarchs (Soros-Zuck et al). Trump has tagged Crooked Hillary. Once elected, he needs to tag the depraved oligarchy.

It should surprise no one that Gold Fillings Soros, Cattle Book Zuck, Morloch Mordoch, Crypto Buffett, Nerd King Gates, Fakeout Ryan, Adhan Merkel, and Crooked Hillary are phalanxing against Trump. They see what's coming, so Trump may as well identify them in order to raise forces against them.

I like Thomas Sowell. If, in the search for an anti-establishmentarian, there were an alternative to Trump, I would be interested. But Soros is funding Kasich. And who is funding and encouraging Cruz?

If Cruz becomes the candidate, I will be pleased if he is elected. However, it is far from clear that the people who are using him to deny Trump will crown him instead.

Best would be if Cruz joined forces with Trump. Share water a moment and try to grok in fulness the migraines that would give Birthers, Levine-ites, and Sowell brothers!

I suspect Trump identifies more as a pragmatic American. More so than as a NWO-OWG people-farmer.

People farmers can take three rotten roads towards subjugating the little people: The road of religiously insane fervor, the road of Unicorn Communism, and the road of aristocratic-oligarchic-fascist abuse. The first two roads are parrallel roads that exist only in dreamland, because they return inexorably to the third road: The subjugation of most of the world to cheap and desperate serfs by international crony-corporate territorial-syndicalists.

The only way so far devised to resist these three rotten roads is under the American model for representative republicanism. To resist international corporatist corruption is not necessarily to identify as a commie-deluded Democrat. Trump is more like a pragmatic republican, in the large sense.

When crony commies are killing kulaks, it doesn't help the kulaks to divert their foci to miscellaneous differences among themselves.

The Rules were drafted by establishmentarians in a way they thought would favor establishmentarians. Now that they see they were wrong, because they did not anticipate a self-funded, national anti-establishment populist, they want to jimmy the Rules to restore the advantages they intended for establishmentarians. The establishmentarians reserve to themselves the right to make up the Rules as they go along.

It is likely that the reason Kasich is staying in the race is at the urging of establishmentarians. If Kasich is a Conservative, why is Soros funding him?

There are many unfairnesses. But the fundamental unfairness is the death grip the establishment has on the throats of Americans. Whenever anyone speaks of unfairness, it is that of which we must not lose sight. Test: If Trump is a sold out establishmentarian, then why is every establishmentarian -- Rino and Dino alike -- so opposed to him?

Whatever sticks a finger in the eye of NWO-OWG (anti-American) establishmentarians, I tend to be for it.

The real Mother Jones thought women should not be able to vote. I don't agree with that. But I do think most Progs could not pass a citizenship test and, for that reason, should not be allowed to vote. When Progs meet common sense, mutual annihilation ensues.

If prices skyrocket, it will be because Progs are angling for an opportune time to offload blame. Same reason the White House got trashed when it came time for the Clinton progboys to vacate the premises.

Progs specialize in calling people of common sense stupid for not taking counterintuitive advice. Motor voter laws are another example. Progs call us stupid for expecting voter id laws would reduce voter fraud and stolen elections. Crooks incline to tell us our property would be safer if we gave up the Second Amendment. Teachers tell us girls will be safer if Joey Pantywaist and Mohammed Goathead are allowed to prance about in their restrooms.

To be "wise" in the Prog sense, one must believe every counterintuitive notion that is propagandized by the crony-commie cabal of carny barkers. Common sense suggests it is time to bring back "good bullying." It's time to bully Progs to shut up, listen up, and grow up. Entitling and encouraging incompetence is the furtherest thing from "love." It is bad for human beings and children who want to grow up to become competent adults.

So we should count on Chinese Princelings and Crony Kickback Artists to tell us how to restore an economy that will work for honest people? Next, should I take advice from burglars on how to secure my home? Or bookies on my best bets?
