Funny you would suggest that specific activity. I have donated my time at food pantries. One thing I’ve noticed there is a distinct lack of conservative volunteers. Conservatives are biologically unable to experience empathy for others. This is why conservatives are almost never found donating their time to the vulnerable unless there is something in it for themselves. Conservatives’ inability to experience empathy is also why their relationships are so shallow. For example, a conservative male sees his family as his property. He loves his wife the way a teenager loves a sportscar. He cannot develop a deep personal affection for his wife because that requires empathy. A conservative’s lack of ability to experience empathy is why bigotry come so easily to conservatives. It’s why genocide is so easily supported by conservatives. It’s why conservative policy so consistently harms the vulnerable. If you are not a conservative, you really shouldn’t defend them. They will never humanize you. Never. They don’t even humanize each other. They simply can’t.

I hope you know that every sentence you said about conservatives is just blatantly false and doesn’t do anything but paint you as completely unhinged. To be fair you already accomplished that so I guess it’s a moot point. The statement that conservatives don’t experience empathy is genuinely among the dumbest things I’ve ever read. If you’re going to argue that the chance that some get some reward from good deeds, you’d better also not benefit at all from your good deeds. That includes feeling gratified. If you do get something out of it, and simply excuse it (as you should), but draw some arbitrary line to only include conservatives then you’re simply too immature and dysfunctional to participate in society. Your insane views don’t do anything to critique conservatives, they only serve to show how dysfunctional your world view is. The left would be better off if you did the right thing and kept your thoughts to yourself.
