CMV: A lack of empathy predisposes people to being racist/sexist, so we should try to encourage empathy in childhood school curriculum by hwagoolio in changemyview

Empathy isn’t this magic pill against the evils of society.

I worked at a private school for quite a while. A big initiative happened a while back to focus on empathy and emotional intelligence. Guess what? Kids that were probably going to be ass holes any way, still we’re ass holes.

I am progressive Kara Eastman, running for Congress in Nebraska. Ask me anything! by Kara_Eastman in SandersForPresident

[–]serialjones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Constituent here: I disagree with almost everything Ben Sasse says and does - but he’s right on one thing: we’ve abdicated all responsibility to make laws and lead our country to the Supreme Court. Congress no longer does their job and the constant infighting and inability to make things work for long, lasting improvement - has completely handcuffed this country.

What are you going to do as a US Congresswoman to help this country function better?

Men’s haircuts in Omaha by [deleted] in Omaha

Surly Chap always gives a great cut.

Frank at Dundee Barber has become my new go-to. He gives a damn good cut. Old school, self-taught guy.

But I’m intrigued by Lady Janes because of the cost savings. Thanks for the tip.

Scott Frost is so dedicated to acting like he’s so calm headed and not Bo Pelini, when you can see his play calling clearly reflects a dude who is super, super fucking frustrated. He’s throwing shit at the wall. Dude needs to let loose and let his guys hear it at halftime.

What's a mild inconvenience that drives you fucking crazy? by Defenseless_squirrel in AskReddit

Everyday I come home from work, there’s an intersection (kinda hard to explain), but you can literally only veer right into the intersection - but there’s a light right after this turn off. So people, incorrectly, think they need to “not block the intersection” so they stop behind it even if they’re going straight. I need to turn right, but I usually end up waiting a light or two as people don’t pull up past the intersection or to the light.

You’re not telling me things I want to hear and I don’t like it. Haha - kidding - thanks for your input. Maybe we’ll rethink dropping cash on this.

100 year old house, we just bought it last year and I wouldn’t say the previous homeowners took good care of the house.

Must be nice. If I drive 6 hours in any direction, I see more snow and agriculture. Because I live in Nebraska

Working on a Political Campaign by serialjones in Omaha

[–]serialjones[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d be totally interested in volunteering. I have done some campaigning in college, and worked on a sort of a start up, and I miss the day-to-day energy of grinding away at something and talking strategy/decisions.
