Empathy is extremely overrated. People kill people out of "empathy" for the victims.
So most certainly NOT the way to go.
Truly understanding complexity and how to navigate effectively within in is the way forward for mankind. Must start teaching all our 6-8 year olds this now...
So please, please, please, not more well-intended but too often extremely dangerously misguided emotions (as also too often very culturally biased) on the stage. We should know this by now....
