You are right. Empathy in the literal sense of only being able to relate with others that have the same experiences and interests. I appreciate that clarity.

Not quite, anti gentrification empathy is about relating to poor people. Same with the property tax cap.

It’s empathy for people with problems you don’t fully understand the cause of that turns into ham fisted destructive regulation.
