"The problem is not “human nature”, the problem is that some humans fail to develop functioning empathy centers in their brains, often as a result of early childhood trauma. Those humans then use the competitive edge their lack of empathy gives them in a system which rewards competitiveness and a willingness to do anything to get ahead to ascend to positions of power. That is why we are in the mess we’re in." Caitlin Johnstone. The Problem isn't Human Nature, The Problem is a Few Manipulative Sociopaths.

And the problem is, we who are not sociopaths need to engage our empathy and compassion for all who suffer under a violent and sick system. To listen to those who suffer and to acknowledge we are all part of this beautiful and scary universe - including trees and honey bees.
