    I mean, feeling bad cause I’m projecting feelings onto it, sure. Feeling what someone else would feel if you were in their situation is empathy though

      Maybe I’ve got an odd take on it, or we’re saying the same thing. Like humans as a whole should definitely try to be more empathetic in their lives. Being more empathetic is something I’m working on a lot myself right now. i don’t think empathy is about “Feeling what someone else would feel if you were in their situation”. I say that because everyones experience of life is different, some people feel pain more than others, or social pressures, or hunger, or whatever. What I mean is that we experience the world uniquely, and empathy is coming to understand the unique experience of others. As in it’s not how I would experience their situation, but how they are experiencing their situation. And a coffee maker has no experience. But maybe I’m talking about something other than empathy
