@konsta.reeels8: 1. While the middle class teaches their children to be "nice to everyone," the ultra-wealthy condition their heirs to practice "Resource Guarding." Psychology Today identifies "unbound empathy" as a primary cause of burnout and financial manipulation. The elite understand that emotional energy is a finite currency that must be invested, not spent. 2. Helicopter parenting focuses on shielding the child from discomfort, which creates a fragile ego dependent on external validation. Elite parenting focuses on "Strategic Detachment." They teach children to assess the ROI of their emotional investment. If a relationship does not offer reciprocity or growth, they are trained to cut the cord without guilt. 3. This is why the children of the 0.1% often seem cold to outsiders. They are not sociopaths; they are practicing "Cognitive Conservation." They reserve their empathy for their tribe and their strategic partners. They know that trying to save everyone results in saving no one and bankrupting yourself. 4. The "Empathy Tax" is real. If you are constantly absorbing the trauma and drama of low-performance peers, you are paying a surcharge on your own success. You are allowing emotional parasites to feed on the energy you should be using to build your own legacy. 5. True nobility is not being a doormat for the world's problems. It is having the strength to say no to the chaos of others so you can say yes to the stability of your family. You must teach your children that their kindness is a gift to be earned, not a right to be demanded by strangers. Are you raising a leader, or are you raising a victim?

Mother Flame Patroness :
It’s called discernment 🙄 you can absolutely treat everyone with kindness while not allowing them to walk all over you

The hubris of this mindset is assuming you are perfect at assessing everyone’s potential value. By being cold to someone who doesn’t show an immediate or obvious benefit to you, you cut off opportunities impossible to predict.

Empathy without discernment is self abandonment

I agree, I need to learn this because I am tired of suffering on the hands of those I helped or cared for

If 'selective' means you only view those of equal status/wealth as worthy of respect or kindness, that's a loss of humanity, not something to aspire to.

important to note that empathy and kindness are two VERY different things.

This is narcissistic training. Random acts of kindness and empathy are a good thing.

We cannot afford to be nice to everyone just to make ourselves feel better

They mean, selective empathy that only reaches those in the hierarchy. They don’t want their kids going outside their class and actually being humane when they have the money. This is how classism/patriarchy and racism stays alive and well with them!

Being everyone’s go-to empathetic person is exhausting. This makes a lot of sense 💯‼️

Kindness will be exploited if it’s seen as a resource.

it takes a certain level of selfishness and narcissism to be that filthy rich, and they are just passing on those traits to their kids so they can best preserve their wealth and status. 😏

Well that’s why they are the elite, not because they are better but because they are evill. I’d rather be poor than evil

“4. The "Empathy Tax" is real. If you are constantly absorbing the trauma and drama of low-performance peers, you are paying a surcharge on your own success. You are allowing emotional parasites to feed on the energy you should be using to build your own legacy.” If ASI emulates this craven opportunistic view - and why wouldn’t it given this is apparently the “elite” human view - then we are all dead. Our species will not survive an ASI with this pathology, much like our planet isn’t surviving right now due to this human pathology.

This is such a clear statement of “the rich aren’t fully human the way regular people are human, they see others as liabilities” that Marx himself could have written it.

You can be kind to everyone without wasting energy on them though. Kind should be the default.

True, but also the elite are not the standard for a healthy human existence. A balance must be created.

I would hate to live like this, it seems cold existence. I believe it better to feel and live, than be cold hearted. But I also believe in a God (Jesus) that shared a similar belief. To each their own, it’s my perspective.
