Saying develop empathy isn’t enough, there are a lot of ways someone can twist things around to say why it’s not good to be empathetic. It’s better to appeal to rational thinking and defeat self centered thinking by logically demonstrating that it’s suboptimal. You don’t even need anything super intellectual, just the Ten Commandments type stuff but within a humanist context as opposed to a God will punish you context. At least that what I think, but i could be wrong 🤷♀️
