The conservative woman they talk about here is an engineer. Almost all the engineers I know work 60-80 hour weeks.
That’s the thing with lots of Americans. We work so hard to pay the increasing rent and take care of ourselves and our families that we simply don’t have the time or energy to see outside the bubbles in which we live. We don’t go through the process of researching everything we hear on the news, so we’re easy targets for propaganda - especially now that it’s got algorithmic targeting to steer specific people in specific directions.
These people really, truly believe the lies they’re told about immigrants.
Oh, no I think there is, indirectly. If you’re working 60-80 hours a week, you have absolutely no home life and almost surely can’t grasp the concept of someone else wanting it. That is directly related to empathy towards others.

Idk… I don’t think there’s a correlation between the hours you work and basic empathy
