It’s a profound failure of empathy So "empathy" is the only thing keeping people from becoming complete shitstains? Empathy is currently experiencing buzz as a positive value people like conspicuously talking about, but what happened to simple old standards? I don't need to empathize with someone to treat them as human. Maybe this is one the kind of thing that makes people say "everyone should work in the service industry once in their lives" line, because you have to separate seething hatred from evaluating how to behave. I would think that "not be an insufferable know better douche that considers some people beneath them and without redemption" is pretty obvious when your job is ostensibly informing the public.
