      I lost most of mine during Covid. The amount of selfishness by people during that time has made me want to never be empathetic towards them… and there were A LOT of selfish people.

      Selfishness can be trained away, lack of empathy not very much it seems.

      Happily we store all these non-empats in pisition of power.
