That's an interesting perspective.
So... if I think along the lines of "some ideas and actions are much better than others" instead of "some people are much better than others" ... I can retain my ability to differentiate from good/bad or better/worse, without heaping judgment on human beings themselves... I can retain the ability to empathize with others, even when how they act disagrees violently with my personal values? Makes quite a lot of sense to me.
It seems that we have our natural way of thinking working against us on this one... from Fundamental attribution error on Wikipedia: "People have an unjustified tendency to assume that a person's actions depend on what "kind" of person that person is rather than on the social and environmental forces influencing the person"
