I'm honoring Charlie's memory, it's what he would've wanted.

Please unpack the irony. I'm old, I am no longer fluent in multiply-stacked layers of disingenuity.

You believe that Charlie is wrong about empathy. But you emulate Charlie. Question: What the fuck?

You're just another Charlie of a slightly different ilk. You have to consciously try to learn the right lessons from bad experiences, or you'll become a bad person.

Lol. Believing empathy is important doesn't mean that everyone deserves it. Fascists deserve none.

I mean, it's possible to be empathetic and still recognize when a dangerous piece of shit has it coming.
