Do you only have the capacity to empathize with a limited amount of people owe day or how an I to understand your comment?

Take it as this; when one person says, "you should be less harsh on these people, many of them are seeing their homeland destroyed," and another replies, "they don't care, they just want to lash out at them to make themselves feel better," if you jump in to defend the latter group, it gives the impression that you have more sympathy for the latter group than the former.
