I don’t think empathy is a zero-sum game.
Fuck the CEO and his company’s practices. Sic semper leeches-who-profit-from-making-healthcare-worse.
But I still feel for his kids who lost their dad, and his parents who lost their son. Just like I feel bad for the families who lost people because they were denied healthcare.
Callousness toward the pain of other people isn’t a trait I want to nurture in myself, personally.
