“In my work with the defendants (at the Nuremberg Trails 1945-1949) I was searching for the nature of evil and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy. It’s the one characteristic that connects all the defendants, a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.”

—

Captain G. M. Gilbert, the Army psychologist assigned to watching the defendants at the Nuremberg trials

Quoting two Redditors:

“Conservatives attack empathetic people all the time. They invent new slurs just for empathy every 15 years, like “politically correct”, or “bleeding heart”, or “woke”, etc.Restricted or nonexistent empathy is a prerequisite for conservative ideology.”

“The entire conservative ethos, everything they say and do, is completely consistent when your starting point is: no empathy.The bad part is that a lack of fundamental empathy is a somewhat innate quality, established in your first few years.  It’s very hard to acquire later in life.  So a lot of conservatives are beyond redemption.“

MWW Artwork of the Day (1/25/23) Limbourg Brothers (Dutch, fl. 1385–1416) Les Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry: Fall and the Expulsion from Paradise (c. 1416) Tempera on vellum, 29.4 x 21 cm. Musée Condé, Chantilly

The picture has no frame, the border of the whole representation being provided by the wall of Paradise. It is from this frame that Adam and Eve have to enter a world which has no boundaries, in which the very shores of the sea vanish, apparently turning into clouds in the infinity of space. Although the ground of the Garden of Eden is stretched behind the figures like a tapestry, it is not merely a decorative surface, since the gradual darkening of the fresh green lawn conveys spatiality. In fact the hardly discernible nuances of green seem to lend the circle a spherical quality. The painter’s intention in this respect is also evinced by the use of perspective in the delineation of the fountain and also of the gate (for example, the roof of the fountain is seen and represented from below, whereas its hexagonal basin appears as if seen from above; indeed, the latter does not turn as steeply into the plane of the picture as does the ground itself).

Today"s #februllage2022 topic is #waves

The last few years have had us riding varied waves of emotion. Sometimes the water stills to a gentle lap, other times we are sent cascading into a dark swirling depth. This image encourages you to ride the waves  #keepyourhead above the #water and #carryon.

Today"s #februllage2022 topic is #Hide&Seek Ever just want to hide away, to seek out your ideal surrounds? To disappear. Do you micro meditate during the day? Grabbing snatches of peace in amoungst the hustle and bustle of every day life. Do you seek solitude? #februllage #analogue collage #soupsue #soupsuemc #collage #collageartist #australianartist #collagechallenge #edinburghcollagecollective #collagecollective Working on #Bidjigal land (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaOUeKEhf70/?utm_medium=tumblr
