Yessh…is this a lack of compassion or empathy. I have a feeling it’s the latter that cause the former. They can’t see past their own lives and that lead them to think anyone that needs help isn’t doing enough. Besides all that giving food for free to children shouldn’t even be a issue. Hell is shouldn’t matter rich or poor kids at school should just be feed. This program in the grand scheme wouldn’t even cost that much (as other countries have proven)
They certainly didn’t lack compassion. Like, if you were one of theirs, they’d give you the shirt off their back and infinite second chances. 2 of the kindest, most caring people you’d ever meet… But yeah, they were also very capable of dehumanizing people and not giving a damn.
How tf could an actually compassionate person bend their brain to be like this? Personally helping others is ok, but doing it systematically via the state isn’t?
Compassion goes well beyond those you see as family. The fact that they actually complained about children getting free breakfast at school, of all places, proves that they weren’t compassionate. They take care of the people close to them, and ONLY the people close to them.
