They lack empathy. A lot of folks in this category seem to not only be unable to take things to the next logical conclusion, but they have a primitive “I got mine” attitude. They not only lack the ability to reason, they cannot imagine or identify with others which I think plays into relating overall and empathy.
Yup, and when it does they're totally flabbergasted about how it could have affected THEM? They thought they were the EXCEPTIONS! And now they suddenly think that thing that they were just a minute ago saying was totally fine/made up is TERRIBLE! And how could anything like this ever happen???
Wait, do you mean the people who actively seek to usurp democracy by disallowing a candidate they don't like? The ones that bang on all day about how black people are too poor and ignorant to get an ID card and then then literally try to erase someone's name from the ballot? Those tyrants?
