1
I'm against empathy.
2
I'm not against empathy for everything.
3
I think empathy is a lot of fun when you're watching a movie, empathy for a fictional character.
4
I think empathy is an important part of all sorts of exciting activities, but I'm against empathy as a moral guide.
5
I think we could do better.
6
The sense of empathy I'm most interested in is when you, in a sense, put yourself in another person's shoes and feel what they feel.
7
Psychologists call this emotional empathy.
8
A lot of people think this is core to being a good person.
9
A few years ago I wrote a book called Against Empathy, The Case for Rational Compassion.
10
And I argued this form of empathy, though it might seem wonderful, is actually a very poor moral guide.
11
Who do you feel empathy for?
12
Who do you most naturally put yourself in the shoes of?
13
Well, we know the answer this from study after study after study
14
we naturally feel empathy for people who look like us who speak our language who we feel are safe
15
and because of that empathy is of all of the human feelings perhaps the most bias and parochial
16
when you put a book out the title against empathy you gotta expect a certain amount of blowback
17
and a lot of people responded to me with their own experiences in our own arguments.
18
Sometimes people agreed with me, sometimes they argued against me.
19
So one argument against the purpose of my book is although empathy could have negative effects, could be bias, could provoke us into violence,
20
could cause all sorts of trouble, it also could have good effects and I can see this in my book.
21
And so some people have said look if you add it all up the positive benefits of empathy outweigh the negative.
22
I'm not always convinced about that sort of math but even
23
if it were true we have moral capacities that are better than empathy
24
another objection is that empathy whatever you think of its role
25
when it comes to war and charity and broad moral decisions is a necessary part of an intimate relationship
26
one philosopher in a critique of me said my wife comes in and she's mad at somebody at work
27
It's all well and good for me to say, I love you very much, and I understand where you're coming from.
28
But isn't what she wants me to share her anger, get angry with her?
29
And my response to that is, it's kind of right.
30
I don't deny that.
31
There are cases where what we look for in a relationship with others is that sort of shared feeling.
32
You're mad.
33
You want me to be mad too.
34
My critical response is, there's all sorts of cases where that's not what we want.
35
My favorite example here is anxiety.
36
I go to my partner and I'm very anxious.
37
I'm stressed out.
38
Do I want her to start sharing my feeling of anxiety?
39
To look at me and say, oh my God, it's horrible.
40
Yeah, it's horrible.
41
No. I want her to be calm.
42
I want her to say, I love you.
43
Calm down.
44
Let me tell you how to think it differently.
45
Sometimes what we want from people isn't a mirror of us.
46
It's rather another intelligent, caring, loving person responding to us as a distinct being
47
and working to make our life better
48
and I think sometimes empathy is exactly what we do not want now
49
if I'm gonna say this I have to come up with something
50
that will replace empathy I'm not saying we should give up on morality
51
so my book is called against empathy
52
but the subtitle of my book is the case for rational compassion
53
and therein lies the substitute I think and the substitute has two parts one is rationality if I'm going to help somebody,
54
I have to know what's the best way to help them.
55
Sometimes what might seem to be the best way to help them simply makes things worse.
56
Sometimes figuring out what to do to make the world a better place is an extraordinarily difficult task, too big for one brain,
57
and we do our best when as communities we work together to think about that.
58
So that's rationality.
59
Rationality itself is great at pursuing ends, but it doesn't provide ends.
60
It doesn't provide goals.
61
What you need is compassion.
62
You need to care.
63
So what I argue in the book is that our best decisions, our fairest, our most equitable ones,
64
are done through a combination of a rational judgment of how does one make the world a better place,
65
plus compassion, love, caring, but not the sort of love and caring that requires you put yourself in another person's shoes.
66
Even if empathy is unbalanced, has a positive effect, compassion does better.
67
If we could reconfigure our moral attitudes to be less biased, less parochial, more with our head and less with our heart, we would do better.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
