Summary:

I push back on the idea that we “owe” empathy to someone who built a brand on dehumanizing others. Empathy isn’t an automatic refund; it’s a social contract you invest in over time. If you cheered harm, erased dignity, and celebrated cruelty, you don’t get to bill the very people you targeted for compassion on demand.
