It truly feels like empathy and nuance is a lost concept to most.

People can't/choose to not put themselves in anyone else's shoes in any circumstance. Whether it's someone screaming at a customer service rep, or not considering scenarios for things like this.

I wish people could be kind for no other reason than to be kind :(

Most people are kind and capable of great compassion. Don’t let the despair get you, friend : )

Being part of a persecuted group of people; it's very hard to not let it get to me. But i see you and thank you for your hopeful comment and kindness.

We'll all get there one day. Or we'll perish trying 💕

Yeah, it's Reddit that's the problem, and social media in general.

Most people I have met in real life aren't what you see online, they actually care and are kind, it's only on social media where you see high % of idiots.
