Where is your empathy for your fellow man?

Empathy for the criminals making the rest of us deal with these increasingly patronizing technologies?

But don't worry, I'm sure they stole that Milwaukee drill set to eat it, and only shoplift the bare necessities.

Nice bit of dehumanizing language there.

A thief is, by definition, a criminal

You are a human and a human is by definition an animal. Yet I don't call you an animal.

Your word choice isn't neutral; it leaks information about you.

Child rapists and serial killers are also "my fellow man", yet we seem inclined as a society to assign labels ("criminal") and punishment for such actions.

You realise you're not disagreeing with me, yes?

I mean, feel free to respect child rapists, but they're a good bit different from the average "person", thus most would want to qualify that somehow

Yes. I presume you’re not capable of empathy, given your comment. Punishments don’t stop people being hungry, and they sure don’t stop people from stealing when they are hungry.

The fact that you’re unable to at least sympathize is pretty pathetic.

Yeah my bad, I'm sure the drill tasted amazing. Probably enough calories to feed a family of 3.
