I find these rps etc funny. It is a great schtick. I dont think it is creepy at all and this kind of criticism is usually employed or instrumentalized by people that loose arguments with Tony or are exposed by him.
The real difference here is that he hasn't been about you.
Maybe maybe. There can also be other explanations as to why I do not think it is creepy. I have empathy, I can change perspective etc. I do not need to be abused in order to know it is wrong. I feel like you are trying to assassinate my voice.
Shouldn't said empathy extend towards the victims though, or is it more like male sympathy?
Not everyone who feels he or she is a victim is one. That is an important point I am making and I am sure you know this. I do not think Tony's schtick is abuse in a way that you work on framing it. Since there is no victim only victim claiming to serve individual agendas and feuds there is no empathy someone who doesn't play petty games could have.
Male sympathy it is then. Oh Poor Men.
I bet you think catcalling is harmless too.I get catcalled by women.
Not really the same thing, but this further confirms the male sympathy angle.
Empathy would note how others respond to stuff differently from themselves, and would care.Why is it different?
Sympathy is moreover your room to put yourself in their shoes.
Empathy is an assault of outside thoughts you're stuck contending with.Did you misunderstand me on purpose?
No?
You asked why it's different. Unless you're asking about mirror neurons versus perspective taking at a deeper level, the above is a basic answer for what separates Empathy from Sympathy.
With you being catcalled you're coming from a very different basis than most women, and with Empathy this wouldn't even need to be explained to you, regardless of your opinion for or against it.
I was asking how the basis is different from women. When I get catcalled. I am not doubting it per se, I just want to know your arguments.
