It’s not empathy that is the problem. You are looking at a problem that is simply a lack of education and consciousness. Liberalism is hegemonic. The default that anyone absorbs is a liberal take and a liberal approach. The only way to correct this is to become educated in ways resilient to liberal nonsense, which requires unlearning their illogical thought patterns, learning media criticism, learning history, and, of course, reading socialist theory. An effective way to do this is through party organization, forming reading groups and political education curricula and alternative media commentaries.
Unless you were a red diaper baby, we all had bad liberal takes at some point. We were all media illiterate. We knew selective and limited history. And our understanding of socialist thought was liberal straw men and cartoons. We have to bring people over to us and understand that they will have frustratingly bad takes all the while until they learn humility and gain consciousness.
Excellent title, comrade
