Everyone is talking about the need for more empathy, and rightly so. But empathy alone is not enough.
What is often missing is discernment, the ability to apply empathy with clarity and integrity. When empathy is applied selectively, or used to excuse behavior we would normally condemn, it stops being compassion and starts becoming a shield for double standards.
True empathy does not mean abandoning truth. It means feeling deeply while still seeing clearly.
The culture does not just need more emotion. It needs emotional honesty. Compassion paired with accountability. Kindness that is not afraid of reality.
That is where real healing begins.
