anyway don't overvalue empathy as a cognitive skill
don't devalue people who have less of it or none at all
empathy vs compassion
so the people you might think of as lacking empathy might actually be very empathetic and just unable to handle your feelings
on the other hand, compassion, in spite of its etymology, means concern for the suffering of others, but not taking on their suffering yourself, so you can be more effective and less overwhelmed and burnt out
you can do compassion without empathy

It's specifically media as viewed from cyber.space's interface, *not* images uploaded by cyber.space users or any other particular instances
