The Illusion of Empathy

Most do what gives makes them “feel good hit”.  Whether making money, improving their economic position or improving their public image. This is not empathy.  Just a dopamine addiction. 

Dopamine is a narcissist’s drug of choice, maybe humanities’ drug of choice, very few people can perform selfless actions, actions without a promise of a “feel good” hit.

True empathy does not require a dopamine hit.
