I wonder if true empathy is the ability to let go of the ego ? @Plinz

Is the categorisation into cognitive and affective empathy valid and useful?

I believe that this is the missing link. Neurotypicals can’t let go of the ego .. everyone else is autistic and get blamed that they can’t let go of their ego ... iow they lack empathy according to most researchers.

I think ego is created by memory. I believe that empathy is letting go of those memories. Emotions are connected with memories. I don’t think empathy is.

I believe a lot of neurotypicals think empathy is understanding an emotion . I believe empathy is understanding different perspectives without judgment of the ego( your own emotion)

The ability to recognize visual cues from people's faces is a genetically inheritable ability.

That is still connected to memory.
