Hi Hive account@abigail-dantes! This post is really interesting, talking about psychology and empathy is always something I like. I do think it can be harmful to feel too much empathy for others and can cause problems in everyday social interaction, specially when talking about politics or the "hard" choices that need to be made by the higher ups sometimes. Also:
