I feel like the original quote applies here pretty well, no real need to change it…
Should be updated to include "empathy is sin".
Racism is virtue.
Empathy is weakness
I don't think these freaks view it as a sin, just as a weakness... which is maybe worse.
I feel like, as a non American, ignorance is bliss.

It is so much easier and comfortable to just close your eyes to the troubles of the world, but it also means that you won’t see what’s coming and will not be able to act.

Let's add: Poverty is wealth
