(full quote: https://x.com/JasonSCampbell/status/1580241307515383808)His followers love to do the "ackshually, that's not what he said and that quote isn't the full one."
I saw the full quote and it made him look worse.
He said he prefers sympathy to empathy and doesn't really go on to explain, but I don't think it's fair to conclude that he was advocating for some sort of sociopathic selfishness. Seems more like he didn't like using the word empathy because it implies you know what the person's going through when you don't, which I admit is kind of a nitpicky criticism, but it's not totally unreasonable or callous. I'm no fan of Kirk but there's no need to take the worst possible interpretation of the words of people we don't like.
