They will be, until they are personally affected
It's the party of pure selfishness, they do not understand empathy. Until they themselves are affected at all, they won't understand .
That video Don't be a Sucker should be mandatory yearly viewing. It won't solve everything but people would learn to better recognize the divide and isolate patterns.
Or maybe not. Humans are complicated.
This is the case for most people. People change their opinions when they're personally affected because first hand personal experience is as real as its going to get.
Anyone who has empathy can see how bad things are for others without going through it themselves though
Your first mistake was thinking the MAGA morons have empathy.
Ben Shapiro quaking in his Jewish little boots rn. Turns out if you're instilling hate about all the minorities, they'll eventually get to yours.
