triumphs and pitfalls of having empathy

by Claudia Berdella

Imitation
flattery or misery?
Empathy gets you both

Facial recognition software
Projections between seer and seen
Human roles  are tongue and cheek

Brutes are weak
subject to the clever
Strength is subjective

Circumstantial evidence
Cognitive bias
Hindsight horrors en mass

Faces
Molded Masks
What you see is only what you can perceive

Eyes can lie
cheeks can deceive
And what you want to believe

Empty empathy
such ecstasy
Reductive revolver reciprocal altruism

Manipulated sympathy
Pity is pseudo sexual glee
"Love thy enemies"

Misery: marketing machine
Love: a five letter word
Misanthropy trophy

Fellow Travelers
Payed enablers
Oligarchical ouroboros
