There's this fantastic clip from their podcast where they're speaking about things that really highlights this.. Like they talk about how the person might not have all the info, thats why they don't agree, and then they start talking 'maybe they don't understand i'm emotional about this, so then I cry'Somebody pointed this out a few pages back, but Ian's understanding of "empathy" seems to be "you buy into the political beliefs that claim to be the most empathetic." I genuinely don't know if he understands the concept of "feeling what the person you're talking to is feeling" at all. I think he and anus literally see it as a checklist of things you have to go down and say. There. Now you have empathy. The fact that he had to "learn" empathy at any point in his life is telling.
I think they're both sociopaths. It would explain why they have so much trouble understanding situations or putting their thoughts into words in their stupid podcast. And why they're constantly trying to fish around and find the "appropriate" opinions to have on things. They genuinely can't fathom just having there own, opinions are these things you wear like clothes so people will judge you as such.
That is like outright sociopathic thinking.
