Honestly, I find that most people think like you to some extent, and I can never seem to understand it because I am on the opposite end of the spectrum. I find that I am overcome with empathy, even for people whom everyone sees as "deserving" of their fate. The best example of this is convicted criminals and their families. I have found that people in the mainstream are often elated to see a criminal get slapped with a long prison sentence, and they are not swayed by thoughts of how their mothers, fathers, siblings, children will suffer. Whenever I see this attitude displayed it always strikes me as cruel and heartless, and I can't see it any other way.
Thanks for this!
