    It’s always bothering me when people don’t have more empathy towards their fellow humans than to other spices.

      Yeah, I mean when you look at how much suffering humans cause despite all our intelligence it’s not that hard to be jaded. Even then, at least for me, it’s a lot easier to empathize with humans than other species. It’s also a lot easier for me to empathize with humans in my social circles than humans I don’t know.

      it bothers me when people arbitrarily limit who they’ll empathize with.
