      Jussie appears to be a total sociopath. Nonetheless, it's worth attempting to summon compassion for people who are so astoundingly self-destructive and delusional. Not to excuse them, but to foster empathy for fellow humans even in the most extreme, damning situations.

      Why summon compassion? Because summoning hatred is socially destructive. Both for the person dispensing hate, and the person receiving it. Conscious citizens should strive instead to cultivate reactions that transcend our base instincts. And there is nothing baser than revenge.

          Also, #JussieSmollett's intention should be the focus, @mtracey: He attempted to incite hatred/ anger towards #Trump & #TrumpSupporters similarly how the #MSM & Democrats attempt to defame Trump.

          Let’s split the difference and summon justice. @SethAMandel can give Jussie a hug when he gets out if he wants.

          Very nice. Since when is the lack of compassion hatred? So many other people in need. This guy doesn’t need compassion, he needs a cell, a lot of time, and lots of counseling.

          Forgiveness is important when an apology is given and repentance is pledged. Then comes compassion.

          Agreed. As @Evolving_Moloch has noted, revenge is the most common cause of primitive tribal warfare.

          Perhaps the nation is ready to have a sane conversation about the damage done by identity politics.

          Still, there has to be incentive to resist the hate hoax temptation. IMO the hammer has to start falling or hate hoaxers will be emboldened.

          Obviously those who commit a hate crime hoax should face consequences in the legal system. But a small minority of hate crimes are hoaxes, it isn’t that a big problem compared to real hate crimes.

          Crime / justice / then compassion. Justice isn't revenge. Have compassion after justice. This isn't too much to expect from us.

          How about keep emotional impact to the minimal and use only logic and evidence it it impacts others? Emotion is the software in everyone to be manipulated, hence socialists think it will actually work disregarding evidence and human nature.

          Well said, Michael; this sort of ethos would dramatically improve the cultural fabric. It is so exceedingly difficult to get people to wrap their heads around the fact that understanding someone is not the same as condoning (or absolving) them.
