There are hurricanes, people are in crisis in Louisiana. A black man just got gunned down by police. Yes , I care about Claudia, but her mother is shit. Kids in cages, their famiyare in crisis.

I really admire this about you. Thank you for relentlessly championing empathy.

You mean the one you offered public, unsolicited advice to the daughter of? The daughter who appears to have managed a breakthrough despite your advice? That family? Keep this experience in mind moving forward the next time you’re tempted to offer similar advice.

That we are in this together β€” not just, not words. The truth is at some level when you hurt, when your children hurt, I hurt. I hurt. And when my kids hurt, you hurt Bernard S.

I think we should engage through empathy and politics
